My wish is that you enjoy this little project of mine.
I truly hope I haven't stepped on anyone's toes, overstepped my boundaries or upset anyone in any way to any great degree.
The Depot Disclaimer that is bundled with the game explains things better than I can here.


Thanks to Matrix for maintaining these Forums so that I could vent and whine and rage and laugh and plan and plot and refer to all the gold that is in these threads. Oh Yeah, and also for being real cool about this whole caper so far. [:D]




Cheers to all of you,

Nope Sami ..... right now it's 0900 on the West Coast. We're just under 3 hours until go time.
Right now I'm shoveling some coal into the furnace, once we've built up enough steam the server will fire up right away.
At least it did last week. [:)]

Fear Not.

Thanks for this. I played SP for well over a decade then put it down for well over a decade, time to give it a spin again.

I have a Win7 64 bit laptop what are the best settings to get it to look the best it can. Resolution, compatibility, any other helpful settings. I'm getting some visual oddities and its a bit blurry, any help appreciated.

Try this **budd**. Change the extension to .zip, then Unzip and drop these two files in the SPWaW root. They seem to help with the colours.

A somewhat more drastic move would be to upgrade to Win 10.


HTH.

Well have anyone else already noticed this too: Everytime as I try load scen in Editor (I press "load scenario"), come message "mech.exe stopped to work" or something like that[8|]... Then game crashes. Maybe Windows 10 bug/incompatible thing? Any help?

Yes same thing happen to me, I'll try and figure it out, but I've forgotten so much about how this game works anymore
