WIR 3.0 ReadMe file?

Hi all,

WIR does not work on my windows system; I receive a general protection error corresponding, I believe, to a lack of memory. That's not a problem, I have a second hard disk running old DOS. However, does anybody know what program should I use in order to open the readme file included in the game after installation? I've tried all commonly used programs (Notepad, Word, Netscape, Adobe...) to no avail.

Thanks,
Lorenzo

Hi Lorenzo,

It sounds like maybe you are trying to open the readme.ico, or something like that. Look for files with .txt and .pdf extensions - the .txt will open with wordpad and notepad, and the .pdf will open with Acrobat reader. I believe both are in the download, but I don't have them in front of me right now.

I know the PDF file is there for sure. If you do not have the program you can find a link to it on our War in Russia Download page.
