PEOPLE'S GENERAL MODIFICATIONS PAGE

5 / 18 / 05 -- I have begun work on People's General my planned 1280x1024 modification. Results so far:
Game does load up and play in 1280x1024, but crashes after moving the mouse over any menu icon.
Also, ALL EDGES OF THE SCREEN CORRECTLY SCROLL THE GAME SCREEN. Menu icon position needs to match its hotspot. (out of range crash.)

Current Major Bugs:
1) Game Crashes when you move the mouse over any menu icons
2) Current buffers are messed up, game screen blanks out to 1280x600 sometimes
3) Text is super hard to read as it is absolutely tiny
4) tactial map is super tiny--this is only fixable with brand new icons
5) Mouse Hex position detection only works inside of 800x600 currently (can't select units outside of this range)
6) Need to get some sleep.
7) As it is obvious to see, the Menu icons need to get put to the right of the game screen.

I will not be releasing a beta version of the 1024x768 and 1280x1024 Peoples.exe until I can get it more stable. currently you can't even move deployed units.

*Note that I will be doing these same mods to Panzer General 2 in the near future.

Here is a picture of the gamescreen at 1280x1024. Note that for you to see just how small it gets, you have to change your desktop resolution to 1280x1024 and view this image.
