A weird graphics issue
I recently came back to play a bit DW and ran into a weird issue. When I entered the main menu, I only see a submarine in the middle of the screen. The menu items on the right side are invisible. Sometimes when I hover my mouse over them, they appear briefly and start flickering. The game is running and background music is playing. I can enter each menu item such as options etc, but I just can't see anything. I used to play this game fine on this machine and never had this issue before. This is a plain vanilla install, no mod, no nothing.

You can use hosting services, for example imgur.
I use win 7 and i had not any issues with graphics. It could be old drivers or broken instalation. But first try to change settings for cursor: Only one problem i've had was with strange mouse flickering. Change this to opposite: Quote:

I see. How do I completely remove the game? It seems after reinstalling the problem persists. I wonder if any old broken files still remained.

Finally figured out why. For nvidia driver, Antialiasing mode needs set to off or application controlled. Gosh, I lost every old missions and campaigns from reinstalling.
