Tiny Game @ 1600x1200 (part of map is viewable)

[Plux]

I wanted to practice for tourny game 4 and play a game on a tiny map. My screenresolution was 1600x1200 though, which gave me already a slight peek of the map. Anybody already know about this issue?

Thread Moved,

Hmm... I'm guessing this is a bug that hasn't been reported very often, if at all. The game is designed for 1024x768 screen resolution, and I believe very few people have their display set to a larger resolution. I also believe that the standard resolution (at least for non-gamers) is still only 800x600, so this issue was certainly not anticipated. I would suggest posting this screenshot in a bug report thread.

I've seen similar things, but nothing like that. You can ask in the Civ3Gen forum (or tech support - which is slow lately).

In fact, I'll move it there now.

I have seen this. I run in 1600x1200 and you get it when loading a game, and then zooming out before moving anywhere.

Just zoom in instead, or quickly move a unit. You can get the hang of not causing it to happen fairly quickly.

I assumed bugs like this were well known or I would have reported it myself...

...makes you wonder if they ever ran it on a PC in 1600x800

same thing for me, i cant play on 1600x1200
1280x1024 it runs fine, so i use it.
it would be nice though if the 1600 res would work, i could see so much more

what exactly does not work? the bug shown here is cosmetic - it has no effect on on gameplay and can be ignored.

i play in 1600x1200 and it's great
