This is the WinSPMBT forum so why are you telling us about winSPWW2 on this forum ? :

You installed the CMD file..... that's great. WHICH ONE ??? Our's or NCrawlers ? How are we to know if you don't tell us ?

*IF* you are running win7 ( which you don't say but I'll assume you are ) we have been telling people for months to install the game OUTSIDE Program Files becasue win7 has it's own ideas on where to save files when a game is installed in program files. The first thing you need to do is re-install the game in you main C; Drive folders try

C:\Shrapnel Games\The Camo Workshop\WinSPWW2

for a start

Since I don't know which CMD file you've tried to use I cannot tell you what to change but the first thing you should do is re-install as discribed above then when you have done that tell us exacty where the game is and we can go to the next step. We will be issueing a complete set of win7 instructions soon and cutting all these sticky threads loose so players do not get further confused.

However, to EDIT a CMD file simply RIGHT CLICK on it then right below START you'll see EDIT. Click on EDIT and make the changes

IF you are trying to use the NCrawler CMD it looks like this

@echo off
@echo ================================================
@echo NCrawler's winSPMBT Windows 7 color fix
@echo ================================================
@echo This fix closes explorer.exe, waits until it is closed and then launches winSPMBT
@echo off

taskkill /f /IM explorer.exe
winSPMBT.exe
Start explorer.exe


change that to this for winSPWW2

@echo off
@echo ================================================
@echo NCrawler's winSPMBT Windows 7 color fix
@echo ================================================
@echo This fix closes explorer.exe, waits until it is closed and then launches winSPMBT
@echo off

taskkill /f /IM explorer.exe
start/w winSPWW2.exe
Start explorer.exe


You'll note we have refined the start game line somewhat

If you were trying to run our GameOptions BETA for MBT it won't work with SPWW2
