Start Window Problem
« on: January 04, 2009, 08:46:17 am »
Hi all..

I'm not sure if it's something I've done whilst configuring or something I've done in the layout I've made, but the Start window appears when I exit a game...

This happen to anyone else ? Or is it my cock up...

Cheers......

CTRL+ ESC shows the start menu.  Maybe you're pressing these 2 keys?  ???

Well that had me thinking about my key mapping, But I remapped to test and even using the keyboard it still showed up.....

I have found away around it though.....

I now use a fullscreen starting picture instead of a window and that works fine

Cheers.......

Yeah, this was happening to me too, for a while.  Magically, while bringing this up with loadman, it went away and havent seen it since.

It seems that when you start a game, it brings up the "starting" window, then draws the game over it and the fe.  Then when you exit it has to close the windows in succession back to the fe, leaving the "starting" window behind for a moment.
