Game worked on first run windowed. Used alt+enter to go full screen. Played for a minute or so then exited. No application problems at this stage.

Unfortunately the regshot got messed up with background stuff. Tried to reopen netPanzer to re-regshot after a Reg/History Clean. Program would start for a split second but then minimised and couldn't be maximised. Messed with PAP menu placement as well so guessing some glitch when the resolution changed for the game. Could only get the game running again by deleting data folder.

Guessing it's a base app issue unless you've got any code included to force a resolution setting.

XP SP3, admin rights.

[Launch]:LaunchAppAfterSplash

By the problem you've described, I think you need to set [Launch]:LaunchAppAfterSplash to true.

Tested on XP sp3 32bit, with admin.
Seems all clean, ran it 3 times. My in-game testing wasn't nearly as exhaustive as it might have been, but it should suffice.

The regshots were clean (except for some ignorable registry entries, created by Windows).

Note: I had no issues while playing on different resolutions, nor running fullscreen. Works great.

Keep up the good work Biggrin
