edit. I reinstalled SPWAW once again into c:\SPWAW 2016\SPWAW subfolder. Now everything seems to be ok[:)]! Then I copied all into main folder and removed subfolder. No red dots in Raider Redux scenario anymore[:D].

My guess is that something was locking up the files and prevented all the files from updating in that folder. Or perhaps something was automaticaly replacing the files with old versions.

Maybe a Windows 10 feature? Or perhaps some over protective anti virus program? Also some computers come with all sorts of automatic backup and file protection software pre-installed when you buy them.

Then when you Installed the game to a new folder it probably reset the file lock up/ protection. Again I am just guessing here and I might be completely wrong.

Main thing is that you got it working in the end.

Ha ha ha

That's what I get for using the Internets.

According to an unreliable source a Hiisi was some sort of Finnish bridge troll, or something. Trying to be funny ... in over my head
Don't worry about it, you got it right. When I watched Lord of the Rings, word "goblins" was subtitled as "hiisiä", which in singular is "hiisi". Then again, finnish subtitles aren't always right. For some reason subtitle writers translate "star system" to "galaksi" = "galaxy", most recently in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and I've seen it elsewhere too. And "Russia" is often translated as "Neuvostoliitto" = "Soviet Union". What's up with those translations?
You know what they say, don't you? About how us MechWarriors are the modern knights, how warfare has become civilized now that we have to abide by conventions and rules of war. Don't believe it.

SPWAW installs separately from your regular SPWAW

Well I started campaign game as Russian and noticed that T-26E had only turret icon[8|]... Something went wrong?

PS. Icon number is 113 in OOB Editor.
PPS. I changed 113 into 1069 (as T-26 in Finnish OOB) and now it's okay:)
