Status: offline 		Windows 10 on my latest computer. Installed, followed some suggestions but have a problem.

My command line

C:\wtpae\War in the Pacific Admiral's Edition\War in the Pacific Admiral Edition.exe" -f -px1920 -py1080 -archive -SingleCpuOrders -dd_sw

Problem is that if I go extended map the mouse ends up not centering on the button. In other words if I want to click on a button I have to go down and right with the cursor.


The mouse works fine if I don't use the extended map but is impossible both in game and in the menu. If I take the -dd sw the mouse works on buttons but the entire screen is smaller and up to the right.

I'm sure there is an easy fix but I didn't see any mention of this in other threads.

Eh, never mind. Reset to 1600x900 and it works. Weird though it won't do it in full screen at the normal resolution.

Status: offline 		Tom,

I'm curious. What led you to use the -SingleCpuOrders -dd_sw switches?

Status: offline 		I'd read that the -dd_sw switch eliminated the scrolling delay. I had some horrible hesitations with Win10 before using it.

It did btw.

The single CPU was what another person had for their setup along with the -dd sw switch. The game seems to run well on the computer with it so I just left it. It probably doesn't need it but if it ain't broke, you know the rest.
