<r><QUOTE><s>[quote]</s> . I don´t we should ask for more free downloadings. Although I got SPWAW by a download myself, I find it was a present good enough for me. BUY THE MCs!!! Support this crew and enjoy wargaming,... but pay it sometimes. <HR>[hr]</HR><e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>

I don't think ...

I do )

I have my original copies of SP1, 2 and 3 )
Kinda hard to play any of them on current hardware tho.

<t>The 3dfx buyout by Nvidia happened months ago.. before the GF3 launch even.<br/>
<br/>
I still run a voodoo5 5500 in one pc (Win98se) and there is a good DX8 compliant driver (1.04 - i get all my vid drivers from gamers-ammo.com) It has no problems at all with SPWAW<br/>
<br/>
The only ...

Hehe.. we were posting at the same time.

AFAIK you can only load water units with multiple units during *deployment* using the "teleport" load trick. (select the unit to be loaded and hit "L" then click the barge) They don't have to be in the vicinity of each other to load up.

<r>I played the first mission after i read this. Seems as soon as any infantry unit gets to a water hex they acquire a raft, and since the barges are all AUX you can't load them during deployment. I used them for trucks and arty <E>:)</E><br/>
<br/>
It seems like a design bugaboo created by the AUX ...

<r>I posted in the thread about the SBLive problems and the screeching sound problem back around v501 or so. I commented on problems with other gamesand the SBLive as well - so as an update, here's what i know now:<br/>
<br/>
I replaced the SBLive x-gamer (in 2 seperate PCs, both of which had sound ...

<t>Was reading this and saw you mention 4.5in rocket launchers auto-deployed in the middle of the water...<br/>
<br/>
It happened to me as well and if i remember right i found there wasnt a landing craft able to mount them. Carry cost was 255 i think and the largest landing craft avail was 254 ...

<r>Before i go any further i just want to make sure you know i'm not trying to criticise or complain... just answering the question of the thread.<br/>
<br/>
That said, after a few days of playing 5.03 i just can't come to grips with the new infantry model. The only way to get it playable with the ...

i figured out what happened but not *how*.

the .dat and .cmt files in the spwaw\campaigns directory for the first Tulagi battle were gone from the dir :/

<t>I was going down the campaign list and starting up all new ones. When i get to the core unit screen at the start of the Tulagi campaign , there are NO units available. Click done, get to the support unit page - NO units available. My A0 was the only unit in any screen. <br/>
I checked the ...

<r>Well, kinda mixed feelings David.<br/>
<br/>
I'm sure the changes were made to the damage models for good intentions, but (at least for me) it removed a large chunk of the fun i used to have. Is there a pref setting i could adjust to approximate the play as it was <=5.01 ? Or, do i need to ...

<r>just an observation but...<br/>
<br/>
you stated in an earlier msg in this thread that you put the vid998.smk file in a directory called "streams" (plural)<br/>
<br/>
mine is in \spwaw\snd\stream (singular)<br/>
.. i can't think of any reason other than this (from what i've read here) that it ...

Did you happen to check their maximum range to fire setting? (select unit, press Y?) If i change any of my units to hold fire until close range i seem to always forget to change it back

I kinda like the mix of visibility i've gotten so far in a couple campaigns.

I just make certain i'm clear on the conditions before i spend my support points or deploy my forces.

Nothin more discouraging than to be tank-heavy in 1 hex conditions

omg that's good stuff )
hehe

<r>Hehe.. heard that WB <E>:)</E><br/>
<br/>
I can play certain battles for days.. ie the first battle inside Stalingrad (the train station i think)- I got 25-30% casualties from the opening rocket bombardment by the Soviets (gasp) then house to house the whole way with wounded squads. It took me ...

<t>I'm getting it with a pIII-800 on a BX motherboard with sblive x-gamer (not 5.1)<br/>
<br/>
And, this isn't the first sound-related problem i've had with games and my sblive.<br/>
<br/>
To this day, CL doesn't have a 100% certified driver set for the dang thing.. if you do a little researching ...

I know the sound you're talking about.
Very screechy, verrry annoying. I've noticed that it happens mostly if i've played another game since rebooting. But.. i think the real culprit is my sblive.

speaking of air units.. i'm in 8/43 of the long wwii campaign (playing US Marines) and haven't had an air strike available yet
v5.01 btw

should i have? (starting to feel uncomfortable here

mum
