Reinstalling SPWAW and original Mega Campaigns

Post by Phil from Loreauvill »

I have been a huge fan of Steel Panthers ever since the original came out back in the 90s.
Well to get to the point, I just put SPWAW back on my computer. Going through my old discs, I found my copy of the original Desert Fox Mega-Campaign, with SPWAW version 5 on it.
My question is, will this installation overwrite my current 8.4 version with version 5 if I try to install it?

You need to direct to install to a new location other than where your current one is, then copy the entire DF folder form V5 installation, place inside megacamp folder in 8.4 version,  the uninstall V5.

also a good option after that...[:)]
Upgrade v8.4 to 8.403, then install SP Enhanced 2009, then download and install the Enhanced Desert Fox Mega campagin...

well there is only one, Flashfyre did an edit to the Desert Fox Mega Camp. and made it Enhanced Compatible, and its of course free, but you need the original DF to use it.
you will find it here, http://enhanced.freeforums.org/index.php

AND the brand new North Afrika Mod!
