Help with SH3 Commander

GJO · 02-05-14, 10:49 AM

Having got SH3 with GWX3 loaded and working on my new laptop with Windows 8.1, I am experiencing a problem with SH3 Commander. The screen on my new laptop is in wide format and when I start SH3 Commander the usual buttons to 'set options', 'rollback', 'start SH3' and 'exit' are all off the bottom of the screen! Is there a fix for this?

Just out of curiosity, where did you install SH3 Commander?

I created a new directory (or folder as they now prefer to call them) called Games and installed evreything to do with SH3 there. So SH3 commander is at: "C:\Games\SH3 Commander\SH3Cmdr.exe"

Did you change your textsize/font settings in Control Panel->Display higher than 100%?

Ooops! Guess I will just have to invest in stronger reading glasses!
I had set the text size to 125% !!!

Now back at 100% and all is fine . . .
