<t> Wasteland 2 is headed by Brian Fargo the guy who created the game company Interplay and Double Fine Adventure is headed by Tim Schafer the guy who was behind well known adventure games like Grim Fandango and Full Throttle. So hardly strangers. Still I'm curious to see how those games turn out in ...

Odd. I just tested this game on <B><s>[b]</s>Windows XP Pro SP3 (32bit)<e>[/b]</e></B> and had no problems ...

<t> I think the most noticeable difference between SPWAW and SPWW2 is that SPWW2 plays alot slower than SPWAW. In SPWW2 the vehicles move shorter distances in a turn and the infantry is alot tougher (especialy if it is entrenched). A battle that could take 10 turns in SPWAW can take 30 in SPWW2. Due ...

Well, it has units that are called recon units, but I don't see any setting in the OOB that makes them different from small infantry squads.

The scout units in SPWW2 are size 0 and are thus harder to spot.

ummm... but WinSPWW2 has transports (I assume you mean transport planes?), gliders and recon units. It does not have infiltrators which is not ...

That site has SPWAW 7.1 and H2Hfr mod.

Only if the victory hex is set as a points per turn V-Hex. Otherwise you score the value of the Victory hex at the end of the game. That is if you still ...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>Final score ~16000 vs ~2700, minor victory.<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>
That gives you a ratio of about 6 to 1.<br/>
<br/>
Decisive Victory reguires 8 to 1 ratio I think. So something like 16000 vs 2000 would give you that.<br/>
(You can calculate this by dividing your points ...

I'd try reinstalling the game and also make sure UAC is turned off. Or if you leave UAC on then make sure not to install the game under the "Program Files" or "Program Files (x86)" folders.

<t> Online game is the main reason why I keep returning to SPWAW from time to time. I have never gotten into e-mail gaming it is just too slow paced having to wait a day just for the next turn. With a friend of mine we have sometimes played 8 hours nonstop SPWAW over the internet. Great times!<br ...

<t> I figured this should be written down somewhere before it is lost forever.<br/>
<br/>
Well here it is. A complete (or as complete as I could make it) list of SPWAW version changes over the years starting from the very first one from May 2000 to the latest release of version 8.403 in 2006. See ...

<t> Just to add the color fix options 1-3 that I posted above all have their shortcomings.<br/>

option 1 has the problem that while it fixes the color immediately it works by closing windows explorer. This means you can not multitask and may not be able to adjust sound volume. Explorer may ...

<r> While reading a topic in the spwaw enhanced forum I came across an even simpler way to setup the core affinity. <br/>
This method does not reguire the imagecfg program. It is probably better too because you do not need to edit the actual exe file in any way. <br/>
You are just using build-in ...

Thank you for the tip planner 3, but I still prefer the core affinity fix. Pressing shift everytime before clicking can get abit tedious.

<r> I can confirm that setting the core affinity to use the second core of a dual-core cpu seems to alleviate the artillery screen lag on my Win7 laptop. It won't fix it entirely. Just setting it to a singe core affinity or to use the first core won´t help. Using the imagecfg program with the ...
