Game Trouble
« on: April 15, 2008, 10:56:11 AM »
The game works fine, but when I start a new campaign, it wont let me click on any of the options.  I can't choose Eden or Plymouth and I can't choose the difficulty.  I click on everything, all of the little radio buttons, nothing happens.  I even tried to select them with the keyboard, didn't work.  If I just choose OK, it starts a Plymouth game.  

Anyone else have this issue?  I tried running in win95 compatibility layer too.

Thanks!

This is a known issue. When you click them they are working just not showing up.

There's a permanent solution somewhere, with illustrations and whatnot, but I don't know where to find that.
But basically, right click on your desktop, click Properties, click the Appearances tab, click the Effects button, and uncheck "Hide underlined letters for keyboard navigation until I press the Alt key" and the radio buttons will once again light up in a glorious New Terran yellow.
