Galaxy Display Area limited

Greetings, Thanks again for the solution provided to the non-loading. I have been playing the game without major issues, but there is one thing I wanted to query.

Re: Game does not start after launch

Success! That solution seems to work, it puts it as a Windowed version. I can play it now. Thank you so much!

Re: Game does not start after launch

Reinstalled new version, made 100% adjustment, still crashes. When I installed the 1920 patch, it gave one of the modded version display screens even though I had installed vanilla. I wasn't able to do anything in that screen, and had to reinstall with the 1366 patch, leading to the same issue.

Re: Game does not start after launch

I checked, and the required listings are there. I did note that my laptop has 48 hertz and 60 hertz for the listed resolutions, but not 75 hertz.

Re: Game does not start after launch

I tried the Windowed version and kept it at the original 800*600, it still crashed after starting the game. The 1080 patch did not work for me either in my first instance or in this second instance. For the first instance, I wasn't able to select ANYTHING when the start-up screen appeared, and for t...

I almost always play as the Federation in vanilla, and usually by the time war starts heading my way I'll have at least 6 or 7 minors as members. Generally, I'll go for the friendly/neutral ones, and leave problem ones like the Nausicans or Chalnoth or Antedeans for later on in the game when I have ...
