Re: winSPMBT and WinSPWW2 and VISTA
Just bought a brand new puter, with *shudder* Vista.
After reading everything I could find in the forums and playing with various settings on Vista I've come up with the following :
1) Right click on your WinSPMBT Icon and go to the "Compatability" tab. Checkmark "Disable desktop composition". This seems to solve the color issues with playing WinSPMBT in full screen mode. When you start WinSPMBT Vista will give you a message "The color scheme has been changed to Windows Vista Basic", once you finish playing Vista will automatically revert to it's normal settings so you don't need to mess with your display settings every time you play WinSPMBT and when you finish playing.
2) make sure you disable the intro movie as mentioned a few times in this thread.
3) On the WinSPMBT "Misc" tab go in and change Graphics Delay to 20 MS and Unit Move Delay to 10 MS. The game still doesn't run as smooth in full screen as it did under XP but it's livable.
Hope this helps.
