Hi, I have downloaded World at War #5 twice now and when trying to install the game I get a message "error in decompressing?" - I think that's what it said. When I try to open files on the game menu some open fine and work great. However, the actual game program will not work. Any suggestions?

The full installation pacgacke has problem with that file. The file should be located in <steelpathdir>/snd/stream. If you have old version of the game use it's vid998.smk file or download the file spwaw upgrade package or in emergency you can get it from my site

Hi, Thanks for the reply. I downloaded the "vid998" file. Where do I have to put the file? I am not good at computer stuff, but I will learn.
Thanks
