Dumb question on purchased version.
Okay I did a search on this, but I appologize if I missed it.
When we get the CD's it will basically be the same software as you can download now (as per the instructions from the download area of the website). Will it be a patch on the CD that we can unlock the extra features with then?
Just morbid curiosity. I am VERY much looking forward to getting WinSPMBT in the mail. I loved the original SP, SP2, and SP3 and not too long ago I was very encouraged to see that someone had undertaken a labor of love to add and refine the original games. Imagine my delight to find that not only was the team continuing their work, but they were adding in even more features/details and Windows support. I think even if there were no differences between the purchased and free version of WinSPMBT I'd probably have bought it just because of the replayability and sheer amount of gaming that I've gotten from the series.
Thanks guys--keep up the good work!

Re: Dumb question on purchased version.
It's a different version.
Or to be more precise (hopefully), it's a different build of the same version, with certain features enabled at compile-time.

Re: Dumb question on purchased version.
Just another two dumb question:
1.Is it really a diferent version? I was thinking it was the same gameplay but with a few enhacements on the graphics and editor departments
2. Do I will need the cd inserted in the drive in order to play? or it is going to be used just for the install and then you can store it?

Re: Dumb question on purchased version.
Going back to the different version thing, and it's certainly not a big deal, but that means we loose our saved games, scenerios, etc. True, we can back these up first, but I'm hoping it's not going to be like that.
However, that said, I'm okay with it either way. If I had a penny every time I started a new SP game, scenerio, etc I'd be a rich man!
