winSPMBT and WinSPWW2 and VISTA

[tombell]

This didn't work.
I did manage to increase the screen size in the game data file to 1600, and that made the difference. It now works well there.

how can one do that ?

or alternately how can i change my windows size ?

Here's a post from a thread on the MBT forum that may be of interest to anyone with the full screen problem with Vista

OK, I think I found how to fix this problem in VISTA. Using VISTA "Display Setting," 'change the "Colors" drop down from "high (32 bit)" to "Medium (16 bit)." I have not had a problem since.

When completing the game and you really need the 'high,' go back and change, accordingly.

Hope this helps.

Same graphics problem with AMD 3870. 16 bit color solves the problem. No other problems.

Does that apply to both windowed and fullscreen mode ?

Full screen and windowed both good with 16 bit. Windowed was ok with 32 bit, but the intro would often hang. Running ultimate sp1.

OK, interesting. We have had other reports of the intro hanging up the game once SP1 was patched to Vista as well. I'm glad this fix works for you. Hopefully as we get more reports like this we can narrow the problem down
