Re: Demo is UP!
Hahaha, he totally stole that one line from Leif. That's awesome. Too bad I have so much work to do today. I might get the demo anyway to take a look at the tut.

Re: Demo is UP!
I got lucky, I was getting download at 357kps (download in about 4 minutes, I think). Downloaded it Thursday at approx. 9:30 am CST.
Since my ability to buy game at release went away with an unexpected car expense, this will way more than hold me over till my wife gets me the full version in early Nov.
Thanks to all involved, I do hope to snare some new players with this demo from my Gaming group.

I just alt tabbed out to post, and went back to the game, but everything became semi-transparent in the game meanwhile.

When this happens use ALT+ENTER to go to windowed mode and then ALT+ENTER again to get back to full screen. Everything will be fine now. It's fastest way to fix it. I think JK is very aware of this problem already. I guess it's just hard to fix completely. |

Re: Demo is UP!
Does this fix work with the fashion in which graphics become giant letters when you alt-tab out of fullscreen? I remember that problem in Dom2 and figured it just carried over, but I hate having to save and restart when the graphics get that wonked...

Re: Demo is UP!
Yes, that fixes all graphical oddities when alt+tabbing.

Re: Demo is UP!
Hmm - anyone figure out how to toggle researchers? Tab key doesn't do it anymore - it does something, but isn't mentioned in the list of keyboard commands via '?'.

Re: Demo is UP!
Its a noob question but do the Demo allow multiplayer? I'm trying to corrupt 5-6 friends to play and they want to try MP before buying the game.

Yes, the demo allows multiplayer, but the 40 turn limit remains in effect. People with the full version, however, can play any nation they wish with people who only have the demo. |
