Re: windows 10 issue
Running the windows 7 command file in 8 or greater is totally useless, since it is there only for windows 7's aero interface which you have to kill off if you want to run a 256 colour mode game full-screen since windows aero thinks it owns the 256 colour palette for its aero colourisations.
Windows 8 and higher do not use aero, they use the "modern UI" with its thicker flatter windows borders yucky look. So there is absolutely nothing gained from killing off explorer.exe, and in fact (including 7) if you kill it off, then you cannot start any new windows programmes while you are playing, and any programmes that were open when you launched the game will have their palette skewed. The command file is a kludge of the highest order that is simply there to allow full screen play in windows seven (7) only.
Stick with windowed mode, since it plays nice with windows.
I may well delete the full-screen options completely on the next release since it causes so much grief. It really is a Norwegian Blue..
