Is there any chance to install DG to WIN7? Just found my old DG CD but an error message occurs when I try to install the game. Thanks in advance.

I run it on my machine (Win7), but it was already on the hard drive I ported over, and use a cd crack to run it(included in the DGupdate I posted a long time ago!)

What error is it showing?

I cannot remember the exact error message but it had to do with battle files. In the meantime I copied my Divided Ground Vietnam folder, deleted all files and just copied the files from the DG cd into this folder and updated to V1.02. I am able to play scenarios now but no campaigns (Error reading campaign data).

Thanks, highly appreciated. It does not help regarding campaign games though.

No, campaign games were never in DG, well, maybe a Linked Campaign Game, but the Dynamics never worked in it. That was a very buggy release that Talonsoft put out, close to the end of their gaming history. We are hoping to get DCG's to work in Middle East, eventually.

EDIT: DCG's are NOT going to be included, I meant LCG's, as the time frame isn't long enough AND, bigger problem the coding for DCG's in Dg is a mess. My bad, I meant to say LCG's, sorry!
