Mine clearing message font color

Stirling · #1 March 6th, 2007, 06:56 PM

Sometimes mine clearing messages are being displayed in a dark gray font color that makes them almost unreadable.

Does anybody else experience this?

A save game is attached (though it seems to happen in all games).

Do you mean this message??

Yes.

It's hard to reproduce because it is so intermittent.

If nobody else reports it, I'll just assume it's my system. It's not a big deal since I can see on the map if the mines are cleared or not.

I have not seen this problem... :/ Do you by any change have a flat LCD monitor? If so LCD monitors only have one display resolution and running your operating system or a game in a different resolution causes the graphics to be distorted. This causes the contrast to go bad and sometimes fade text fields, etc. One of the reasons I will be using my good old CRT monitor until it breaks down.

I haven't been able to reproduce it after a reboot, so I'll just put it down to one of those 'computer things'. [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/PointRight.gif[/img] [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/icon13.gif[/img]

Hi all.
It's not just you, Stirling.

I've also had the same problem. It also happens with air strikes once they've unloaded, and as Stirling said, it's so intermittent that it's hard to save and/or reproduce.
I have an LCD monitor, but it also used to happen with my CRT monitor (old system too; now a completely new PC and same problem).
Any ideas?
