WINSPWW2?

Cameronius · #1 October 6th, 2005, 03:35 AM

Any idea when WINSPww2 will be released? (Even a ballpark ETA would be good). Looking forward to brewing up some T-34s with my company of Tigers.

It'll be released when it's finished

Original release schedule they gave us at the beginning of
the year was for WinWW2 to be released around Novemberish,
but that was before the Mega v 2.0 patch for WinMBT; so
I would guess that we won't see WinWW2 anytime before the
winter of 2006.

Oh well looks like we will have to wate

Work on WW2 will start AFTER the fix patch for MBT, as I intend to use the MBT code as a common starting base.

Most likely, it'l take 3-4 months to get done once it actually starts.

Me wants WinSPWW2 as well - the tank and other stuff development there is much more interesting than post-war (hanging on for the grants, while making do with valentines and cruisers, if the UK in the desert for example, then waiting for 6pdr ATG tanks, I do rather like the 6pdr churchills

! )

Cheers

With WinSPMBT as the common base does that mean that maps will be interchangable between the 2 games? I hope so.

I have a large project in mind and would rather not wait until WinSPWW2 actually comes out to get started on it. I have at least 47 maps that will need to be made with each of them needing a corresponding mirror image (maybe 3 mirror images for each for the 4 cardinal directions) so they can be rotated around and butted together like individual boardgame mapboards (like ASL mapboards).

The maps will be fully interchangeable between the two games. That was always a priority

Btw, be sure that British vs Italy 1943 (June and forward) battle locations (maps) will be in right terrain (not always in desert as in SPWAW seems to be)... It's bit strange that Matrix never fixed that.

Regrettably, the Tiger tank killed your Canadian and English (and my American and Polish)ancestors. The wonderous Firefly may bring the satistfaction you seek, in pillaging the lands from the butchers of your past armies. But, if you would like to learn more of the strong Tiger tank, this website has much to offer:

I have a suggestion. That would be nice if SPCAMO starts WinSPWW2 forum before game relase just after game works starts.
