Russo-German War '41-'44

[Brigz]

Glad to see you here Ron. RGW is a great game. Looking forward to that 2.0 version and AGW too. I'm running it under Win98se with 380 megs of ram using 32 bit mode. Runs great. Looks great.

I can't recall if RGW requires my installing each patch seperately or as I'm now on an XP with no patches at all, if I can just download the latest patch. I'll see if I can remember the 16-bit part, but though my graphics were somewhat askew when I played it on the 98SE, it was different, but none too much a hassle (I don't recall if my 98SE graphics were already standardly set as 16-bit it or not).

Charles, I believe you need to install each, in sequence. The first couple were fairly small, but around 1.4, IIRC , you also had to install the scenarios that came packed in the download. They made the whole thing a bit big, but manageable.

We have customers running RGW on Win 95/98/2k/ME/NT/XP. One wargamer got it to run under Linux using a Windows emulator. As was mentioned, you may have to set the display resolution to 16 bit so that Windows will give RGW enough virtual memory to load all of its maps and graphics.

Well that is good news, I am on 32bit colour so i'll try 16bit.

Strat, send me your postal address, and I will send you a v1.6 CDROM to get past the patch problem you mentioned.

Well, what can I say, to you people out there that think that this game is not worth a try, tell me where you get that kind of service.
The offer is well appreciated and I may take you up on that if the above does not work, thank's.

We are working on a new patch (v1.7) for RGW with some improvements and fixes. We plan to release it in a couple of months, depending on Anglo-German War 39-45 (AGW) development schedule. We are also discussing RGW v2.0, which would be a significant update with all new map graphics and based on the AGW engine.

I personally cannot wait for AGW, my only wish would be a possible link between the two games for the game of the century, WW2 in Europe/N.africa, I can only hope and pray.

Very nice to see you here Ron.

Strat..

Jim1954: Thanks, I was afraid (sort of) of that.

I'm not sure but I believe that is something they are thinking about in the future. You also mention something I never thought about. A North Africa campaign using the RGW/AGW engine would be very cool. Hope they consider this in the near future. Maybe it will be included in the AGW game?!?! Ron, are you listening?:D

Dave, read this interview that Ron Dockal did with the Wargamer almost a year ago. It details much of what you are asking about AGW.

What REALLY caught my attention is the last part of the interview where Ron get's to talking about something they have on the burner called WW2 - Europe. Admittedly a ways off, but it looks awesome.

Thanks Jim. I'll be sure to check that out later tonight when I get home.
