Looking for campaign testers

Do you know this for certain? I am used to dealing with the SPWAW game, where you can rename the campaign files and it all works fine. If it doesn't in WinSPMBT, then I'll have to go "move" everything to another slot.

And if that's the case, is there any way of knowing which slots aren't/haven't been used by other campaigns out there? I'd hate to move this and have it still conflict with some other campaign...

Hmmm... I just tested it again and the renaming seems to work. I wonder why it didn't work when i did it on the DOS version. Maybe I just renamed some files wrong or it has been fixed for the Win version.

[FlashfyreSP]

Ok...so it works, then?

As for the game lockups, I'm not sure why those are happening. I'll have to investigate some more...

Yep it works. Sorry for the confusion.

Game lockups huh? Have you read the post: PBEM Battles whit custom maps problem in the main forum?

[FlashfyreSP]

Yep, I just did. Doesn't seem to be the cause here, since none of my maps have shellholes on them. All the scenarios work on my XP-box as stand-alones; I'm going to re-check them as saved games, in case there is something in that part of the routine that's causing the problem.

[FlashfyreSP]

OK...I think I know the reason for the problems.

Although you can renumber the campaign files and play it, you can't save any of the games; something in the Save routinue directs the Load part to the original campaign number whenever you try to re-load a saved game.

So, unless you intend to play the campaign all the way through in one sitting, you can't just renumber the files.

So, I have reinstalled the files to the Campaign Slot #5, which I hope is not being used by any other campaign.

Nick and Trip1509, I'll email you the updated ZIP file tonight. Delete any Campaign 5 files you have and install the new ones.
