How to play Gen Ed MCs with SPWaW 5?

[mgardner]

I purchased SPWaW v8.2 General's Edition with all 4 mega campaigns and am really having a fun time with Screaming Eagles. I understand that the older MCs will have compatibility problems with the OOBs from v8.2 and before I start one I want to try to get it working with an older, more appropriate version of SPWaW. I want to try Lost Victories next, so I downloaded SPWaW v5 and upgraded it to v5.2, then copied all the files from General Edition folders MegaCam and MegaCam\Lost Victories to my SPWaW v5.2 directories. As soon as I select the MegaCampaign option from the menu though, I get the message "HALT! Only registered owners may proceed beyond this point" and am returned to the main menu.

Any suggestions on how to get the older Mega Campaigns to work with older versions of SPWaW?

Thanks,

Matt
