I can't use Krom's map editor on my netbook. The reason for this is because the editor won't "fit" on the screen. (the lower half of the screen is missing, along with the scrolling bar or whatever that thing is called.)

I think the screen is 8 by 6 inches, but I'm not sure. It is a Latitude 2120 if that helps.

Help would be GREATLY appreciated.

I'm guessing the screen is 1024x600. The minimum size for Krom's editor and the KaM Remake (and KaM itself I think) is 1024x768. Not much you can do about that, apart from plugging an external monitor in, but that kind of defeats the purpose of a netbook
Can you still use it even though part of it is off the screen?

KaM TSK supported 800x600 (hence ingame toolbar without swords) and I think it will be a good todo item to add this resolution support to KaM Remake too

Nay, I can play KaM, along with other games.

And no, I can't sue the tool. I can't use the scrolling bars so I can use all the terrain and tiles.

There is no way to fix this either?

I'm positive the screen of a netbook is 1024x768.. I can play KaM fine as well but haven't really tried mapping on it.


My school issued netbooks to all of the students within this technology program. Luckily I was one of the students. Pretty cool if you ask me.. But I have to return it at the end of the year. Oh well. Next year I won't be playing KaM in study hall. =D

Dude! My school got netbooks, too! I (along with everyone else) get to keep them until we graduate, and than we give them back to the school. Like I said before, the ones we got were Latitude 2120s. How about you?

Same here. That's cool you can keep them until graduation.. Lucky.. But yeah, 800x600 works fine on the netbook if you're wondering.

Hopefully I can start cranking out good maps now that I understand scripting a lot better and I'm a little more comfortable with the editor. Not to mention I'm not as stupid as I was last year. Lol
