FYI it was not the windows transparency thingie, or at leasr not just that.
My second install, the dababes one kept doing the same thing until I changed the switches.
So it seems it needed both things, or at least the direct draw switcn

Thanks, youse guys

I changed the switches and turned off the windows transparency setting, whatever that is, and it worked like a charm.
I'm so excited. I can now get rid of my old Windows 7 laptop and get an Alienware desktop. (jumping up and down in glee)

<t> Thanks you guys. I'll try the -dd_sw first, and if that doesn't work will try the Seabee approach. <br/> This bleed through happens in both my stock and my DaBabes extended map installation.

<t> After a very long hiatus I've returned to the game. My last opponent, Bilbow graciously offered to continue our last game. He sent me the game file, but it seems my old password doesn't work or I have a senior moment and can't remember it. I know there's a way to retrieve it. I just don't rememb...

Yep, that worked sing 1280x720

Thanks BB

I guess this is still open. Would like a long scenario if playing with an established player, open to a short one otherwise

Playing the game on an Alienware 15 inch laptop.
hat resolution will allow me to see the full screen on the action phase. I miss the bottom half

Ready to watch this one

Great. I've played a few PBEM but not that good at them.
What scenario would you like? Would you like to try one of the shorter ones first?

My last two games against Bilbow terminated prematurely due to my issues with depression, since resolved. I'd like to find a IJN player player. Scenario open to discussion. Stock would work, DaBabes too.

I keep an old alienware with windows 7 just for this game

FOW. I recall an episode in the Battle of Britain IRL where a Polish fighter squadron on a training flight found some German bombers and proceeded to attack them ignoring orders to disdngage

Large oiler group. We will see what happens

<t> I'm coming back to WITP AE after a two year hiatus. Formerly I only played by email but this time I'm playing allied against the computer.
