Hi, A suggestion: also put your debug.err on pastebin.com It's kinda long. Also, crash reports can also go to the tracker , but be sure to follow the guidelines (upload your debug.err, dxdiag, and memory dump zip file. And save file if you happen to have one). As to the error, was it on an end of turn? And how was it well along into the game?
From the beta roundup : Map does not render after alt-tab ( 1 ) ( 2 ) ( 3 ) ( 4 ) ( 5 ) ( 6 ) (<a href="https://forums.elementalgame.co

BAM!!! WAD (working as designed). https://forums.elementalgame.com/363986 Although a little feedback will be coming (restart game blah blah blah)

Hear, hear!
Yep and yep .
For reporting procedure, please see the stickied guidelines .
Not really sure what your problem is. Why don't you check the compilation thread to see if someone has already had your issue. And yes, alt-tab and windows key doesn't work, and there are several start of game crash reports.
Copy the HTML into some other program that lets you add tags quickly, then paste back.
I turned the resolution to the lowest possible to fix it, but we might have seperate problems.
What imprinted lines? Screens? Is it similar to this ?
Once again, good job. (Totally not a bump in disguise, honest).
Taking something out can be just as much of a source of bugs as putting something in. The less changes the better, for stability.
Better idea: just hit PrintScreen (no alt). Every time you hit it you get a new screenshot in your My Documents\My Games\Elemental\ScreenShots\ folder. No messing with Paint, and its already in jpg, ready for upload to imageshack or what have you.
I think you need to play the game in non-fullscreen mode...but I'm not really sure. I just use the printScreen button + imageshack.
It does change indeed .
I don't use a 24 hour clock normally, and I'm not in EST. Makes keeping up on a forum pretty annoying (Elemental Beta in my case). Any chance to get some time/date format options in the account settings?
Netbook support is currently under discussion here .
Actually, this too has been reported . Most of those memory messages in debug.err probably don't matter. Lots of stuff gets created once at the beginning of the game and isn't freed by game close. The real problem is game assets that are created regularly during turns and such, and aren't freed regularly.&n
Thanks for the updates...
Yep, they don't quite work yet .
Yeah, changing any video settings often caused the problem for me too.
Yep, going in and out of Elemental while playing is known to be borked . That's specifically alt-tab, but I'm guessing the mechanics of minimizing are the same.
Well, that's kinda disappointing, especiallly since Brad has been doing the media circuit claiming to be able to run Elemental on a low end netbooks. "When the game comes out you will be able to play it on a netbook," he said at one point, "And I don't mean a good netbook. I mean a crappy netbook." Source Misquote, or am I missing something?</p
