Game Quits after 3-5 turns?

Post by magnicus »

I am having a problem with SPWAW5.01 quitting after only a few turns. I deleted the folders and reinstalled from the original zip file but that didn't seem to help anything. I have barely played since downloading 5.01 so I'm not sure if this was an original problem or one I may have caused by changing the XXsp2waw.ini file to not look for the CD like I saw somewere on this site. It said to change it to a non-existant folder (the one line in the .ini file that is) and renami it without the "XX". The funny thing is though, after I changed it I realized the folder it was referring to did not exist anyway.

I changed its name back to the original but that didnt help. So I deleted it and both versions of SPWAW I had installed on my computer and reinstalled 5.01. When I did this it did not recreate this file at all. Hmm.

Maybe this doesn't have anything to do with that file but It's the only thing that I changed since the last time I played a couple months ago. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Bill

Delete the steel.prf file in the save folder sometimes this file gets corrupted and casus problems. Could also be your sound card not liking some of the sound files. SOme repacements are in teh 5.2 patch.

When ever there are problems upgrading to the most version is a good idea.

The ftp should be working again
