Can't minimise the game :(
Hello there

First, congrats for the great game, remebered the old days... :)

Using 3.2 and if I try to alt-tab the game crashes or just stays there forcing me to close it. This on DX, on OpenGL refuses to start at all - black screen. Am I the only one or this is common issue?

Alt-Tabbing has been an issue on some older versions of FS2_Open. Can't remember if the build supplied with TBP suffered from it though.
Karajorma's Freespace FAQ. It's almost like asking me yourself.

3.6.5 or something
Where I can get newer ones? I have downloaded the *newest* from the fs2open but it was slightly older than the one from TBP and in fact refused to run at all because of some preferences issues

The recent builds subforum of the SCP forum has lots of newer builds.

Be warned however, newer builds may have bugs that may affect gameplay. Such as AI issues. The bleeding edge builds should have most fixed, but this is still good to keep in mind if you encounter problems.

Thanks for the warning. For now everything is okay, the alt-tab issue was so annoying I'll be happy to face some bugs instead of killing it and running again and again every time I switch.
