i. Do you know if it is possible to continue an on going campaign with the retail version or do I have to finish it with the free version?

ii. Do I have to uninstall the free version before installing the full?


Again, thank you for the replies.

Here's a few answers:

i. It's not. You cannot chop and change a PBEM game between installs. It's to prevent chaps who are not gentlemen cheating in PBEM, if you think about it for a mo.

ii. No - when the cd prompts you to enter the file name (C/program files/shrapnel games/camo group/ etc etc.) simply tag on a suffix such as "cdversion" or such-like. Then it will be installed in a new folder and will not overwrite the DL version.

I'm running WinSPMBTcd and WinSPMBTcdpbem in addition to the original DL Winspmbt installation folder.

PS - you'll have to patch the cd version up to 3.5. When I got mine about six months ago, it was delivered as v1.0
