    Default Splash Screen and Menu slight issue

    Hi,

    This is more an inconvenience rather than an actual problem, but it's a strange little issue.
    Basically, when in windowed mode the splash screen and main menu appear to the top left of my screen, instead of the centre. This is after I let FS build a new fs9.CFG file, and also after some slight editing. I don't see how any of the editing would have caused this though as I didn't play with any display settings, only scenery and textures.


    Thanks in advance

    In FS9.cfg look in "display device ...." for a line "mode=xxxxxx", this positions the splash and other screens. The simplest values I found are to list your normal desktop resolution here (for example mode=1680x1050x32), this will center everything again.

    Thanks, but that's exactly what I had in there before, and still no luck

    I can handle it though, not a major problem.

    I've always fixed that issue with this one:

    [MAIN]
    Location=300,125,948,659

    Change it to:

    [MAIN]
    Location=

    That should re-center it and it'll write a new value next time you start the sim.
