Blazer13 Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 When I go to submenus, the edges are cut out. So I can't click the OK (FLY), CANCEL or X buttons. Debrief is the same. Obviously I can't make any changes to the sim. I have to use CTRL ATL DEL to get out. I was able to make initial changes the first time the game booted in windowed mode. I run it at 2560x1600 in full screen (I have a 30 inch monitor). Also the Windows task bar is still overlaid the menus. It behaves the same wether I'm running the 1.02 patch or not. By comparison, DCS A10 works fine at that resolution and the menus are sized correctly. BTW A10 is stunning at that resolution. Specs are: Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit SP1, GTX 570 with 275.33 drivers, 4Gigs RAM, motherboard is Gigabyte Z68X-UD4-B3, Direct X 11.
Panzertard Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 Sounds like you still run it in windowed mode - can you change it down back to Fullscreen 1280x1024 just to try to reset it? PS, make sure you patched from 1.0 -> 1.0.2. You don't need 1.0.1c in between, actually it seems to cause more issues. Otherwise you may try to reset all your settings by: - Quit the game and Enable hidden files in Windows (Windows Explorer, organize) - Find and rename "C:\Users\<you>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\Eagle Dynamics\Ka-50" to "Ka-50.old" - Start up the game again and set the resolition.

Blazer13 Posted August 14, 2011 Author Posted August 14, 2011 The Full Screen is checked so it's not in windowed mode. The latter would have probably allowed me to make the changes as the outside edges wouldn't have been sitting outside my monitor. I went straight from 1.0 to 1.02. I'll try what you said and see if a reduced resolution will cure it. As I said, DCS A10 works fine so it's a curable bug.
Blazer13 Posted August 14, 2011 Author Posted August 14, 2011 I have tried what you said. It does reset the game. However, the only way I see the buttons is if I leave it in windowed mode. No matter what the resolution, as soon as it goes to full screen, I lose the buttons. I will not play this game in windowed mode.
Panzertard Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 Could it be that you Nvidia software is set to a specific 'mode'? Have you tried resetting all the Nvidia settings? The mind is like a parachute. It only works when it's open | The important thing is not to stop questioning
Blazer13 Posted August 15, 2011 Author Posted August 15, 2011 No, the Nvidia is all at default. Shouldn't Black Shark behave the same way as A10. One is fine the other not.
Booger Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 I kind of have a similar case, but not as grave as the OP. What happens is once the (actual) sim engine closes out, the debrief page (the bottom anyway) is partially covered by my taskbar. With his, I guess his taskbar isn't visible. Luckily, I can simply click anywhere on the window to get it to the front. My guess--I think it might be a focus bug/issue for (some?) folks who play in full-screen mode.
Blazer13 Posted August 15, 2011 Author Posted August 15, 2011 Is there another patch in the works that could solve this. Again, I don't understand why the interface of both sims would behave differently.
