Yay!
Now we don't have to wait anymore! Thanks! You should deserve a round of applause!

Okay, I found out why my ZC wasn't updated - the folder name was subtly changed from "ZeldaClassic" to "Zelda Classic", so the package extracted to a separate folder. I checked the about text in ZC after updating for real, and it says Build 24 now (even though we know it isn't actually the 24th build).

So, yeah. ZC2.5 final release. Awesome. I wasn't sure if I'd ever see this happen, but it did! Another big round of applause and all that.

I don't know if anyone even knows what I mean when I talk about the issue with windows 8 and ZC.
So I made a video to show the devs.

This bug is very unpleasing.

Wow, this is certainly a milestone. Thanks for all your hard work, devs; I know that I'll feel more comfortable using this newfangled Zelda Classic knowing that there's finally a stable release.

Well, Its not windows 8 doing it.

Well, it has to be something in the program itself thats causing it.
The only thing I Know its not my computer.

Check to see if you're video card driver's are up to date. That might be the problem. Also, post your video card model, driver version, agconfig file, zc application/shortcut settings, and monitor settings so the devs can check for compatiblity issues with those things and and allegro. Also have you checked allegro log for erroneous output?

I already have the video driver for my Nividia 7800GTX updated.

Its not the video card, ZC worked fine with windows 7/Vista/XP/2000.
I'm not going to bother anymore. Its beginning to piss me off to the point where I don't care anymore about even using or doing anything with ZC.

ZC -> Allegro -> Operating System -> Hardware -> Monitor

It could be any of those 5 things above fault. Even more then one. Heck even all 5.
So do some searching online and hopefully you'll be able to find a solution.

Ventus: It sounds more like a driver/hardware/windows8 problem. It's a fairly new OS so manufacturers haven't had much time to fix the kinks so to speak. Also Microsoft is known to break things and then release patches and service packs for them.

Set ZC to gfx_mode = 2 (windowed), and then set resx, resy to the highest resolution you can in the meantime.

Yeah I was fumbling around with it some more, and It seems to be a Software glitch with 8,
But I'm not going to worry about it, I set my windowed Resolution to the highest setting, and its like having Full screen.

But its not. Anyways Forgive me for my antics

Well hot diggidy daffodil, never thought I'd see this day. Congrats to the devs and best of luck on the rewrite

So suddenly Zelda Classic isn't saving my settings. Like talking every time I quit I gotta reconfigure my buttons and fullscreen. What gives?

[Mero]

Check for the config file.
