[1256] x3 Classic Windowed window problems

12 replies · 3,684 views · Started 18 May 2010

Windows like script compiling and quest loading dialogs now look like this: (in the background, not the password window, that's fine.)

EDIT: Actually, the one I showed was x4 my bad. x3 has a different problem where it just doesn't show the dialog. Seems to be like the old bug I reported a few builds back on x3.

EDIT 2: Yeah, it's just this bug resurfacing: http://armageddongames.net/showthread.php?45205-1190-Window-Popup-Graphical-Glitch-in-Windowed-Mode

Any word on this? It seemed to be a fairly easy fix last time? This is one of the more annoying bugs I've ever dealt with, because it makes reading your compiling messages impossible to read in windowed classic mode.

I just checked, and x4 Windowed crashes on start-up. Also, x2 has similar results as x3. My resolution is 1024x768

Thank you Gleeok for the new build! I haven't had a crash (yet) but I've come to report that this bug is still present in 1266.

Yes, the same thing happened before too. It worked, then it didn't work, then it was fixed, then it came back, the it was fixed, and now it's back again.

I just want to bump this because of it's extreme annoyance to the users of windowed classic mode. Seemed to be an easy fix the last couple of times this happened, just wondering if anyone can take a look at it again.

_L_, what do you do that is different than what we do? 😕 The mystery of the magically self-fixing bug is less of a mystery now and more of a bad plot twist...

Its a great issue that need to be corrected
and the date is so late.
