Hi,

I noticed that when I attempt to use the unit selection box by shift-leftclick-drag, my units that are inside the box do not get selected.

Also, I downloaded the latest NVIDIA drivers, and still get flickering when using anything but the lowest 3D model quality setting.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Mike

My system specs are:
Widows XP Service Pack 2
Intel Core2 Quad CPU @ 2.66 GHz
2.75 GB RAM
Dual NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTX 768 MB w/ latest drivers (version 6.14.10.9794)

mike,

Run the hotfix from microsoft to fix the flickering problem, and see if it helps with the select. If you are running in sli mode, turn off one card.

Thanks, Rune.

I've run the MS hotfix, and still get the flicker with and without SLI enabled.

As for the selection box, I noticed that it works only when I have the floating icons on. Not sure if this is intended or a bug.

Notwithstanding some of these minor issues, looks like another great game from you guys.

Thanks again,
Mike

Mike,

When you say "flicker", what exactly do you mean? Is everything flickering, just some things, what?

I've made a note to check the selection thing with the icons off. If that's true, definitely a bug!

Thanks!

Hi Steve,

It's an intermittent flicker, sometimes it's just part of the scene and sometimes it's the entire scene -- very brief flash of black. Hard to describe much better than that, unfortunately. It's not too annoying since it only happens a few times a minute at most, but I'm sure there's got to be a fix.
