(Weirdly, this helped the issue for me, I know there are other solutions (which didn't help me) so I guess they will have to be something tested by alot of people. (Ideally I wouldn't want to have to boot up FRAPS alongside the game everytime but this is what worked for me.)) |

Unsolved Issues

- While the actual Tactical element runs fine, the game will run too slowly when on the geoscape.
Various fix ideas exist but whenever or not they work depend on the hardware, such as enabling V-sync, FPS cap or even running an external program such as FRAPS to slow the game down.]</ref> |
