Hello!

I've decided to return to the WA community for a while and I was wondering if there's something to help with the colors issues on W7 x64 after minimizing/restoring the game.

Any indication to a solution is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

check the beta readme, the latest beta update includes many functions that can help resolve it including a button combo you can press during gameplay to force it to restore the correct colours, though whatever corrupted the colours to begin with can still corrupt them again later.

Thanks, Shift+Pause solves it. I don't mind the color corruption as long as there's a quick fix.

No, after maximizing the colors just flicker and then remain messed up, this is bad. To prevent this go in Settings -> Advanced and for the Palette fix option only check two last ones - Fix DirectX palette and Fix on changement (something like that) and u will be fine.
Or just apply this reg file:

Maybe I'm just lucky, but I've never had to mess with any Palette settings and my colors are always fine even, after minimizing (I'm on Win7 x64 too with default Palette settings).

What's Your GFX Card MihaiS_? Just curious.

His issue is solved, if he wants he can mess with the advanced settings but he doesn't really need to unless he gets too lazy to use Shift and Pause combination.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll check to see if this option solves the issue permanently.

I'm on Windows 7 x64, nVidia GeForce GTX 295.

Yup, franpa, you'll always roam my mind as the first one to answer to my issue in regard to the latest patch.

Thanks.
