Default Re: The Wallpaper Challenge

If you change the exe to a scr and use it as a screensaver in the display properties, then you have to tell it to use a shipset every time it loads. It's not too useful at present as a screensaver that loads up after an idle period.

When I open it up, it covers the entire screen. However, there is a constantly flickering whitish-gray border around the ship area, and the menu that lets you select a ship set is always displayed. It would make a better screensaver if that menu would hide, allowing the ships to fly accross the entire screen.

When I first open it, the folder that it looks in is whatever folder the file is located in. I tried putting it into a race folder, but it doesn't show the ships unless I select a different folder and then come back to the race's folder.
