The fixed radar will not be blurred on full zoom steps (one mouse wheel click is ±0.25 zoom steps).
Maybe provide an option to antialias the minimap and have that OFF by default? :oops:

Maybe call this option "fixed minimap"/"rotating minimap" ;)

I totally love the new minimap, and the way that the main map will bounce back on to screen if you jump to close to it's edge via the minimap. Really nice bit of game polish that. :D Sure, antialiased might make it that little bit more precise visually speaking, but it's not something that I really notice that much tbh.

Super Transports can only carry 3 Heavy Tanks?

Tried different resolutions, bit depths and texture sizes and I alsways get the same error. "iglicd32.dll" is part of the GFX driver.

...I suppose, it's the drivers again, BUT 2.3 didn't work while in beta stage and works perfectly since 2.3.0!! I got hope! :D

As mentioned elsewhere, the 3.0 version has slightly higher requirements in terms of working OpenGL drivers. You might try upgrading your video driver from the manufacturer's site. Also playing with the display settings like hardware acceleration.

Unfotunately there's no update available! Weather at the Asus site nor at Intel. The log says, it uses the fixed pipeline instead of OGL2. This is okay and I get into the game with a "playable" frame rate (20-25 @ 1024x600), but it crashes something around 3 to 20 seconds after it finished loading without touching anything. But as I said before: It was the same with the 2.3 betas before 2.3.0. ;)

I have a question, what are the tech prerequisites for the Super Transport?
Much obliged. ;)

Also :) As you can see in the attachment, the mg towers are not firing when they should be.. :hmm:
I also cannot fire with my units from behind my structures, maybe this is a bug as well? :hmm: :hmm: :hmm:

They are slightly outside the range of the MG tower.

MG Tower - Range = 7.5
MG - Range = 6.0

But you have a power generator (2x2) in front so the MG Tower is 0.5 short of the tank.

I really wish the buildings didn't have those square foundations, instead building should just go directly in to the ground. I think that would make the buildings look sooo much better against the terrain.

Huh, that's strange by me too. :hmm:

I think it was great to have projectiles traveling through ground fixed, but this patch is seeming a bit like The Patriot Act :ninja: . I say that because I can only assume this is another side effect of it (additional to forts/towers/hardpoints not shooting through each other)?

IMHO this is more detrimental to strategy than the hardpoint issue. I understand the logic, but when I see this screen shot I'm reminded of similar counters to new ideas: [img]Warzone2100%20is%20not%20a%20war%20simulator[/img].

Let's allow shooting through friendly structures, Forts shooting over other structures, and likewise > towers > harpoints > walls/bunkers. I'm a bit confused on this minimum firing range, tool. As long as I'm giving the Cannon Fort a hug it won't hurt me and I can slowly murder it in it's sleep? Seems a bit silly to me.

Hello gentlemen :)

I dont know where to post about it so I type here..

On 3beta1 when I or any player preview the map, a strange dots are visible.. and they change positions almost every new hosting..

It is visible on this preview..

viewtopic.php?p=72741#p72741

The dots are goin from top to down through the numbers, the other time they were on bridges..

There is nothin that can explain their existence on the map..

They appear on connections between different terrarian tiles.. which are set properly I checked many times, the bridge case, I have no idea..

Also on the map called Dam the dots appeared, they werent there before..
