TBCB2: black screen on startup

meatwad · 11-25-2006, 02:29 PM

Hello - I have encountered the following issue:

When running on a machine with an ATI RADEON 9800XT video card in 1280x1024 mode, starting the game after initial install causes the screen to become completely black. The application is still running, as the sound can still be heard, but the UI never comes up. Hitting alt-F4 a couple of times, then Enter, closed the app.

I got around this by changing my screen resolution to 1024x768, then turning OFF full screen mode in the options. The game now comes up for me just fine. This is something that might need to be addressed in a future patch, however.

Thanks!

Did you reboot after the installation?

I rebooted after the install more than once. This is version 2; I don't see anywhere in the application where a build number might be found.

The crux of this issue is the fact that when running at 1280x1024 and you attempt to go full screen, you'll get nothing but a blank screen.
