Bug When Loading Mega Campaign

Post by SlyGambit »

I recently downloaded SPWAR, and was impressed with the improvements to the game over SPI and SPIII, both of which I own and have played extensively. I played a couple of the smaller scenarios without any difficulties but have had no luck playing the Mega-Campaign. When I hit the Mega-Campaign button I initially get the presentation screen, which announces Matrix Games's involvement in the production. The next screen shows (in green) "Mega Campaign list" and then below it, each on a new line, the numbers 0-9. Then a couple of lines skipped and "next". Of the buttons on the right, "Start" and "Delete Saved" are both grayed and in red letters, and the only button in green letters is "Campaign". But when I hit this botton nothing happens. I do notice at the bottom right of the screen the words "Mega Campaing v7.0" but of course I know I downloaded the complete game from the website and it reported the version as 7.1. If I do hit the "Start" button, although it is grayed and in red letters, it does appear to attempt to start, but in the bottom left there appears to be a great many OOB (Order of Battle) files the game cycles through continuously failing to load any of them, and then I eventually get a system resources error. I look forward to playing the Mega Campaign and any help is greatly appreciated.

Megacampaigns do not come with the initial download of SPWaW. You have to purchase them separately from Matrix or one of their dealers.

And MegaCampaign versions won't changed as this is identified in the basic core code. Hense SPWAW 7.1=MegaCampaign 7.0
