This fills the screen with the game window but it is still a window and the scrolling is not as good as in the full screen mode. Maybe it works better in the CD version?

I can tell you unfortunately in CD version the scrolling is just as bad when set to desktop resolution, because some weird cursor behavior on edge of window oftentimes just stop your scrolling at all. It's all just the same whether 800x600 windowed or desktop windowed, when you move the cursor "too fast" to the edge it will stop scrolling at all. Besides, the "movement sensor pixel" area is really obscuring some buttons on the map editor. You can't click the button without triggering an annoying map scroll. If the pixel area is set to low, the map stops scrolling now and then.

Currently, nothing beats the smoothness and hassle-free scrolling in the full-screen mode. Nuff said.

This may be what you observe but don't you think if *WE* saw what you claim to see that we wouldn't have fixed it ??

I have NEVER experienced ANYTHING like you describe when I scroll the game and when Andy gets back he can confirm this with both his XP and win7 computers so it's not the game....it's the way you have it set up and BECAUSE every system is different we added adjustments so players can fine tune the game to suit their system

Have you made any attempt to adjust the scroll speed or opened up CAMOGAME.INI to adjust Scroll sensitivity ?

I get JUST A LITTLE PI**ED OFF when people make blanket statements like "in CD version the scrolling is just as bad" when I *KNOW* it works just fine in all our development machines and NOBODY else is making or has made claims like this.
