Hello there, Team17 Community.

I've got a problem, it's about minimizing In-game. It doesn't work sometimes, it isn't that annoying. But then suddenly, I get the colorbug and I can't minimize to fix it. It's like totally random. I can't predict it, I can't do anything against it. It's not that often but it appears sometimes.

Is there any solution?

Thanks for your help.

Regards.

Edit: Oops, wrong forum, sorry.

It doesn't work sometimes,

So what happens when you click "minimise" in the escape menu?

When I click "minimize" the window fades out and the game lags.

What operating system do you have?
Are you using the latest Beta version?
Have you tried closing/stopping/terminating all programs, services and processes that are not essential for the game to run?

I use the latest Beta version on Windows XP. I used to have some applications running in the background like MSN, ICQ, Steam and xFire.

In v3.6.28.0 I haven't had any issues with it.

So I guess it's new.

This is probably linked with the Vista maximizing bug workaround...

Check to see if you have a file named "palette.log" in your W:A folder.

I'm experiencing the same problem, it also appeared in 3.6.28.0 for me. I got Windows XP Prof. SP3. I don't have any Palette.log in my WA folder.

No, there's no such file in my WA folder.

*push*

Okay, so I installed 3.6.28.0 and it appears there too, I have no idea what it could be.
