Corrupted file WIPTAE

I downloaded WITPAE some years ago. But now if I try to open the game it sends me to an install, which I perform, but when it finishes running and I try to open the game it loops me back into the installer. I can't do an uninstall and re-install from my disc because I can't find it. I tried ...

Looking for Mid level Axis Opponent

Played a number solitaire, and a few vs live opponent. I think I'm a mid level soviet player but who can tell? I may be horribly overestimating myself. ;) Full Campaign. Can usually reply with a new turn in 1-2 days.

Re: Resource Stores

Further into the game now. I've gone from 144 resource points to 165. At 144 I was having over 40,000 supplies not produced because of resource shortages. Now, at 165, I'm having 57,206 supplies not produced due to resource shortages. How can producing more resources result in a higher resource ...

Resource Stores

It's August 1943 and I'm playing the Soviets. According to the Production Screen I have over 7,000,000 Resource stores. And I have 144 resource points. But the Logistics Event Log says that I lost over 40,000 supplies that were not produced because of Resource Shortages. Should we be dipping at ...

Commanders Report

In the commanders report you can click on locations and industry. Then if you click on "off map" the cities listed have an up to a 3 digit decimal number with an asterisk after it. Does that mean anything other than they are off map or is there some production factor involved there?

Soviet Arms and HI points

Quite some time ago I read that the Soviet needs a minimum of 280 arms points and 200 HI points. Is that still the conventinal wisdom?

Artillery firepower

I read somewhere a while back that an arty btl support unit has both a combat value and a firepower value. Can someone give me a brief description of that and how it affects the outcome of a battle? I tried searching but with no luck.

RE: multiplayer password

Nope. Whatever I put into that password field it tells me it is an invalid password and then freezes up the game. I'm sure I"m missing something but I really don't know what. Perhaps it is mad at me when I first come in and it tells me there is a newer version available and I ignore it?

multiplayer password

I am trying to get into my first multiplayer game. I've gotten all the way to accepting the game I want into, then is asks me for a password. I've tried my Matrix, Slitherine and Forum passwords. No luck. I didn't see anyplace to set up a password for multiplayer. I could use some help.

multiplayer game

<t> I have been playing against the AI and a few PBEM games and haven't had much trouble. But now, I am trying to accept a challenge to play a multiplayer game for the first time. My opponent has guided me through the unfamiliar territory and I have gotten through all the steps except for at the end ...

I don't seem to be able to send PM. Keep trying but nothing in my sent box. I'm not finding anyplace to get into the multiplayer games in either The Forum here or on Steam. I need a roadmap. Thanks.

RE: Looking for a German player

Hi. I tried to PM you but it didn't seem to go through. I have played some games as the Axis but only against the AI. Also played a few as the Russians, again only AI. I'm retired so I can get turns fairly quickly. Interested?

RE: WitP Windowed Mode : Can anyone please HELP me ?

I definitely have it running on Screen 1 but I must be doing something wrong in SeaBee to get into Window mode. I tried the directions up thread but get to a point where my screen doesn't match what's in the instructions.

RE: WitP Windowed Mode : Can anyone please HELP me ?

<t> I don't use a laptop. Desktop with two monitors. I added the second one since when I have the game on my #1 screen I can't minimize it or anything. So I have the game on Screen #1 and Kull's spreadsheet on screen #2. My problem is that I can't get the pointer to move onto the second monitor (no ...

<t> Turning off the overlays did the trick. Performance improved approximately 4,563%. So I guess my mucking around with the switches earlier must have been good too.<br/>

RE: Slow Performance?

Ok, I've got Seabee and if nothing is selected or if I'm setting up ASW or something else local things are good. But I was trying to set up a tanker TF from Darwin to Balikpapan (sp?) and it's slower than rowing the Queen Mary. Any help?
