Hello all,

Here's hoping you can shed some light on a little issue that I am having with this awesome mod.

I have windows 7 pro 64 bit, have no problem running the single player campaigns. however I cannot seem to get the Skirmishes to function, due to the bottom of the game window not showing, I.e, there is no launch game button and no scroll bar.

I've tried scouring the Net for similar issues but thus far seem to be the only one experiencing such problems.

Please give some more info.
What resolution does your desktop have? If you have a tiny laptop screen, the fixed menu size could be an issue.

Do you set something like 150% dpi in your windows screen settings, making everything bigger?

Please upload a screenshot showing us the issue.

Hey,

Slightly embarrassing,

I don't know how to post screen shots onto here, not the most gifted  with computers so you'll have to bare with me.

But when I go into skirmish lobby, it appears that part of the sides as well as the bottom part of the window is cut off somehow...

I have currently got my desktop resolution set at 1360x768
I know that seems quite high, it's set as the default currently.

I've also tried all the other resolutions available right down to 800 x 600 and the issue still persists.

I've tweaked with the In game Resolutions and even tried playing around with the compatibility mode again to no avail.

Could it be due to a bad installation?

You can't upload files as a guest (in other words, you need to register an account before you can attach files to posts).

The selected ingame resolution doesn't affect the client's window sizes at all; the cause is indeed most likely your DPI settings, like LKO mentioned.
To change your DPI settings, first right-click on the desktop, then go to 'Screen resolution', then click on "Make text and other items larger or smaller" and finally make sure that 100% is selected on the page that now appeared.

Most likely it's indeed either your DPI settings or you've made your taskbar higher than the default setting. DTA requires a minimum resolution of 1024x768, so 1366x768 should be enough.

Thanks for your support and speedy responses.
