HUCE Startup Glitch

Post by cgutzwil »

Hi,
New to the forum,long time Harpoon fan (original 5 1/2 disc DOS version). When I launch HUCE, after the intro screen I get the generic selection box for starting conditions and then it throws me into what appears as a random scenario which I have to get out of to select the scenario I want or to resume a saved game. I can do this but gets to be a pain. Can Anyone Help?

Uncheck the box that says 'Enable Instant Action' in the first pop up window (your generic selection box).

Thanks, that did the trick. I was so used to the "old" interface that I totally missed it!
Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi people;

I have always had the same issue but never minded about it.

Now if I want to fix it, I can not find the "enable instant action" button

Some help about this will be great.
Thx in advance

Once you are playing the random scenario go to File\New and uncheck the Enable Instant Action checkbox.
