Found a bug? Great! Post about it here!

"Accept?" message is not visible in 11/24 version

Postby Sandman25 » Thu Nov 26, 2015 10:47 pm

I don't see the message which happens when I can learn an ability from demon because it is hidden behind tooltip for current spell.
It happens all the time. The game ignores everything except y/n/escape. Probably the problem is specific for my computer since other players don't seem to experience it.
Windows 10, resolution 1366x768. It didn't happen with version from October (no changes on my local happened since that time).

Edit. So for me the game looks like frozen, and when I press Escape I finally see the message the game was trying to show me.

Or is it the description of ability which I can learn? Quite confusing IMHO since I don't see the question.

Gah! I moved the tooltip in the new "smallest resolution" mode, but didn't remember that the tooltip is forced up when learning new abilities! And yeah, this would be a rare bug, because it would only happen if Demon was running in 984x720 mode...

Odd though, with a resolution of 1366x768, it should be using the same one it was before: 1080x720. So, looks like I have two bugs to fix: not covering that up like that in 984x720, and why 1080x720 didn't get picked when you could support it. Thanks for the report, I'll get on these immediately. :)

Posting 11/26 build very soon with the tooltip fix for the 980x720 resolution, but I was not able to repro getting that resolution to be chosen when running at 1360x768 or 1366x768... going to have to puzzle on that more, but I want to get the blocker fix out immediately.

Thank you for the quick fix! It is fixed indeed, the tooltip is on the right now and does not interfere with any messages.

No problem, this was a pretty serious one. I pretty much drop anything to fix gameplay blocking issues. An experienced player like you was able to figure out what was going on, but a new player'd be pretty hopelessly stuck. :(

Still wish I had some idea why it's giving you the new, smaller resolution though, your setup clearly supports the middle one. Can't repro it locally by setting my resolution to yours either, which may mean it is Win10 specific. Yuck.

Yes, it must be Windows 10 indeed. After upgrading from Windows 8 to Windows 10 another game is having issues with resolution too.

Bleh. :P I'm taking a short break for Thanksgiving + actually playing games instead of making one... but if I made a special build of Demon set up to give me a little information about what's going on w/ resolution selection on Win10, would you be willing to run it and report back what it says? It may or may not lead to a fix, but Google hasn't been too helpful on pinpointing so far, so this is now my best lead. :D
