Status: offline 		The animation graphic for ships on the info screen is being clipped during the overlay.

Attached is an example - it looks like the ship animation graphic file is not being placed in the correct spot.

Anyone else run into this?

Thx!
====
Graphics driver updated via NVidea.

Shortcut: "C:\Matrix Games\War in the Pacific Admiral's Edition\War in the Pacific Admiral Edition.exe" -w -dd_sw -altfont -multiaudio -px1680 -py1050 -cpu2 -deepcolor

Win7 and running program as admin.

Status: offline 		I had this too, and it was because I have an old PC that couldn't keep up with the graphics. If you use the

-noFire

switch in your command line that runs the game (edit the short cut), it will go away. That switch will also make other animations go away, like smoke and gun flashes during the combat replay.

Status: offline 		If the widowed size and the desktop are same in width (IIRC), then it does not calculate the vertical offset correctly. It thinks it is Full Screen instead.
I have tried to correct this, but it is buried in the graphics engine, and changing what should be the offset causes the graphics to go crazy.
So I left it alone and added the 'noFire' switch to get around it.

I have this issue with my EEEPC where the window screen size is different to the game's Windowed screen size.

[edit] It is the window border offset that varies in size between full screen and window modes.
