FYI:I got SPMBTv3.1 and SPWW2v7 from another SP forum. So, only SP2ww2 left!

Btw, I tried to launch SPMBT v3.1 via Dosbox v0.70 but every time comes only "No space mouse space"... Any help?

I do not have the DOS versions of SPWW2 or SPMBT anymore so I can“t test as to why they would not work with DOSBOX. However if you run version 0.70 of DOSbox there is also a newer version 0.74 available.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/dosb...r.exe/download
Maybe it works better maybe not...

EDIT:
If I remember correctly SPMBT 3.01 was just a patch. You needed to have SPMBT 3.0 installed first.
Also back in the day there was a program called mousectl that was used by people having trouble with mouse cursor running the game from windows 2000/XP. Make sure not to use that mousectl thingy when running the game in dosbox. Try to start the game directly from SPMBT.exe or SPWW2.exe.



I did however have and uploaded SP2WW2 into here:

Also I had the very first? CAMO mods. The ones that add the camo graphis to units in SP2 and SP3 games. These graphics replace the original Green/Blue/Brown unit graphics with camouflaged more realistic ones.

So these mods work for both Steel Panthers 2 and 3 games (by SSI). To install you just unzip the files into your \SHP directory.
These are not to be used with the current games these are very old mods from 1997-1998 era.

Again I hope it is okay for me to upload these here?

Are you running them in full screen in Windows 7, if so how I recently bought a new computer, my old one died, and I can't get DosBox to work in full screen. When I try, my mouse and keyboard freeze up. Any suggestions? They work fine in a window.

Also WinSPWW2 and WinSPMBT work just fine in Windows 7. They are on the C drive in their own folders, not in Program Files.

A quick google search brings a couple of possible solutions.
1. Try running DOSBox in Windows XP SP3 compatibility mode.
2. Try messing around with the DOSBox configuration file. Specificaly the lines "output=" and "fullresolution=". Change them to for example:
fullresolution=1024x768
output=overlay.

Troopie, what comes to full screen just push ALT+ENTER. Works for me anyway;)...

Re: SPMBT/SP2WW2 anyone?

Alt-Enter did not work. Changing to fullresolution=1024x768 and output=overlay did the deed. Baie Dankie Rosollia!.
