Hydra Text Bug

I changed my system font for an aunt who was visiting over the Ester holiday and it caused this with the AACDS.



While resetting the from back to the normal 96 dpi solved the problem I hope a patch is provided. I can see it being a problem on quite a few multi user systems. Changing system font settings for one program makes no sense as it will affect every user on the system. It may be nessescary for some people to use lager font for any number of reasons.
The chance of corrupting something changing from one setting to another every time you need to use AACDS far outweigh the benefits in this case.

I am a supporter of Hydra and the measures the TWL community is doing to combat cheaters, but of all the complaints against this program, this is one that I really have to agree with.

Needing to change my font display size everytime I need to run this program is not only highly inconvienent, but also dangerous because of the risk of corrupting files. Due to the fact that it is necessary for you to reboot your computer to change the font size and also that my Windows 98 is already highly unstable, I have had to manually turn off my computer multiple times because the system hung up.

i would really appreciate a fix for this also...i am less than thrilled about the smaller font setting...
I support the aa cds, though...hope it all truns out well :-)

I tried to duplicate this by changing my font settings to large and extra large and the program still runs fine. Might be specific to your operating system, or something. Might be helpful to the admins or whoever if you posted some information about what your running and what your running it on.

oh btw I forgot to say THANKS to the guys who made this thing to begin with... so THANKS guys, it's a great thing that you've done and I really really appreciate it.

This has been fixed.
It will be included in an update tomorrow.

It's just getting too late and I still have to play some AA before my wife gets back from playing pool.

You will still have the same interface, but your "panels" won't be clipped. Meaning you won't have rounded edge panels, they will be square.

Thank you very much Hydra. The fix more than makes up for the minor change to the interface.
Enjoy your game.
