Source: War in the Pacific: Admiral’s Edition Read me File – 21 January 2012 Version1.01.08r9
To use any of these, Right click to edit the Properties on the “Quick Start” shortcut to the game (located in your Start Menu folder for War in the Pacific: Admiral’s Edition). Do not edit the default desktop link, which points to an “autorun.exe” as that won’t work. You have to use the Quick Start link which points directly to the game executable. You’ll want to add these to the end of the “Target” field to get them to work.
COMMAND LINE SWITCHES
-altFont
Enables alternate in-game font (Lucida Sans Unicode).
-cpu4
(cpu1, cpu2, cpu3, cpu4) Switches set the cpu affinity for multi cpu systems. It will do nothing for single cores and will default to using all cores if a core is designated which is not there (for example using -cpu3 on a dual core system). We’ve found this to be very useful on some multi-core systems, especially Intel processors.
If used alone, the -cpu# switches will keep the game running on the CPU specified all the time. If used with the -SingleCpuStart switch, it will only use that core when starting the game. If used with the -SingleCpuOrders switch, it will stay in single CPU mode for starting and the orders phase, but will run in multicore. If one of the SingleCpu switches is used without a -cpu# switch, it will default to cpu 1 when it is in single core.
-deepColor
Enables 32 bit color, intended for Full Screen mode.
-skipVideo
Skip the intro video when starting the game.
-colorBlind
Support for color blindness.
-w
Windowed mode, so that the window is within desktop.
-wd
Windowed mode, daily autosaves.
-ww
Windowed mode, weekly autosaves.
-f
Full-screen mode.
-fd
Full screen, daily autosaves.
-fw
Full screen, weekly autosaves.
-px#### -py####
To have any effect x must be greater than 1024 and y must be greater than 768. If values less than or equal to px=1024 and py=768 are used the original values of 1024 and 768 will be substituted.
Spanning mode is not supported and user should ensure that both the video adapter and monitor support the px and py values.
We were unable to test on all possible monitor combinations, if you experience issues you should immediately remove the –px –py from your command line switches to revert to standard display behavior.
See above.
-dd_sw
Handles DirectDraw via Software. We’ve found this can make a huge difference on many systems as far as reducing interface lag and making button clicking in-game more responsive. On a few newer systems this can cause some visual glitches and slow combat animations though, so give it a try and remove it if it’s not ideal on your system.
-archive
Put data reports in archive directory.
-multiaudio
Invokes a fix that changes audio timing for multicore machines.
-SingleCpuOrders
Starts the game in single CPU mode and stays in single CPU for the orders phase, switches to multi CPU mode for running the turn, then switches back to single mode for the next orders phase. We’ve found this to be useful on some multi-core systems, especially AMD processors. Use this or –SingleCpuStart, not both.
-SingleCpuStart
Starts the game in single CPU mode. Switches to multi CPU mode if available later. We’ve found this to be useful on some multi-core systems, especially AMD processors.
-archive
Daily autosave.
-r
Show Roads.
-fixedArt
Will not use rotating images.

RE: Command Line Switch Reference - 
Now add the -dd_sw switch to the end and see if that helps with the scrolling. don't remove any of the other switches when doing so....GP
