Eh? A community service award is just an award given for service to the community; its not necessarily an award given by the community.

So, Fyron wants one as well or how does it sound to you guys

Are there special system requirements for this?
I have tried it but absolutely nothing happens even though i get the little green 'H' icon in the system tray.

I am running SEIV deluxe on win98se with an nvidia graphics card. The resolution I have my monitor set to is usually 1152x864. Are any special settings required?

I would love to get it working. thanks. bye.

I know what the problem is.

I should have a new version up this afternoon.

Update to the main program:
http://imagemodserver.mine.nu/other/...indowedSE4.zip
- This fixes a bug with windows not noticing if you release CTRL, ALT or SHIFT while doing a multiadd.
- This also fixes a bug which prevented the click and drag from being noticed by 98

And, a tool to remove the black border on win98:
http://imagemodserver.mine.nu/other/...Windowed98.zip
Some setup required; you need to specify what screen resolution you want to use in the restorez.bat file.
After that, just use this exe to launch SE4 with instead of SE4.exe directly.
Note: It can't yet detect when SE4 shuts down, so you'll have to close it manually by right clicking the tray icon when you are done playing.

Hi, I have it working now on my win98 system. All windows seem to be movable except for the main menu (F2) and the planet 'scrap facility' windows (Ctrl K) which don't seem to be movable. However I'm very happy with what it does now.

thanks
bye

You wouldn't believe how many windows there are in SE4... pages and pages of names

I'll add the missing ones tonight.

Thought I had posted this before but I guess i just thought about it.

Works great, looks great, but won't work if you have multiple monitors running.

You did post this before and SJ answered. He thought he addressed it with the latest version. Have you downloaded the updated version?
