Congratulations, you have gone from newbie to beginner in world of Blitz3D development. Most of your issues have been "Par for the course" for Windows developers for 27 years now.

I did modify graphics command to plain 1920,1080 and found simple close window on desktop windows icons after 3 fisted salute worked ok. but doing so found issue with RuntimeError command so will get back to you.

Not zarch but 4 a good compatibility test, this is another Stevie G game in similar style that may scratch your itch.

Heheh... Windows developers for 27 years... do you mean just in BB, or on Windows in general? Lord knows, every time I've tried to develop any kind of "serious" software on/for Windows I've run into various unsolvable rendering issues between development platform and deployment, that have made me look stupid and may even have cost me one job... Hence why I've tended to avoid Windows as a platform for any "serious" paying work...

But I digress.

Thanks in advance for the pointer to Gunstar; I may check it out when I have time.

Guess I'll just have to continue fiddling with Z-Virus to the extent that time and talent permit... I still wish I had a better understanding of exactly what's wrong with the thing, though.
