Panther Games to Change Publishers

[bayonetbrant]

I'll just say this - based on 3 different pieces of information, from 3 different sources who did not talk to each other in advance and probably have no idea they all talked to me, I'm 98% certain I know what's happening.  The problem is that I can't talk about it publicly without betraying some confidences and I'm not going to do that.

^ You Tease

Unless it involves underwear a monkey and a piece of string you should be able to give more details than that without really breaking any confidences

Yep, never would ask anyone to leak any confidential information....I am sure we all will find out soon enough when they are ready.  I am just hoping the news results in more games/expansions based on their system but in shorter release cycles.

Isn't that what anonymous sources are used for to scoop news stories?  I'm not saying you need to call them Deep Throat, perhaps Fall Rosa or something.

I hope they fix the text cutting off on the information screens before they go. HTTR is fine, but COTA and onwards cuts off a lot of important text making it hard to follow what is going on with a unit during a battle. It seems to be a problem ever since I got a widescreen monitor @ 1920x1080, as it didn't happen with my old monitor - now in monitor heaven O:-).

Boggit make sure your default view in windows isn't set to something other than 100%   Panther games like Ageod have text issues if you use a zoom level other than 100%.

[Boggit]

Thanks Bison. Sadly it is at 100%, and no luck. :( (Win 7 Professional)

Strangely HTTR is fine, it's COTA that truncates the info panel on the left. If you have any other ideas let me know. I'd love to get it playing properly. :)

I don't know if your talking about the same thing, but i had to reduce my font size when i had the issue. Window 7 defaults to 125% text size, I set it to 100% and it fixed me up.

[Capn Darwin]

Win8 defaults to 125% - thanks Microsoft for the f'up.  One other font setting to look at is DPI. Having that not set to the default can also blow up text boxes.

Wait, wait... you guys are actually unhappy with your Windows boxes?  After all the crap y'all give me about my Mac, you'd think they do everything but give bl....  uh...  family show here, move along :)

What do you mean, "but"?  ;)


Back to the main topic -- Dave, I trust you'll keep us posted about where you wind up!  :)

I just want to register a vote for hearing more about the underwear, monkey, and piece of string. As fascinating as the Panther thing is, it's not every day you get a good monkey story.

Computer users bitch about everything.  At least PC users are given the option to use a plethora of alternatives when it happens.  :P

You mean alternatives such as OSX?  ;)
