Default Re: APCalc

If APCalc is in the main game folder---- no matter where the game is located it "knows" where to look for the OOB's.

*IF* APCalc ran from somewhere OTHER THAN the main folder where the winSPWW2.EXE is located you will get EXACTLY what you showed in the first post

When you installed the CD version did you delete the DL version first or was the CD version installed OVER the DL version......if yes delete everything and just install the CD

APCalc works now. I did an uninstall and re-installed it.

Only unusual thing I see is in the C:\Shrapnel Games\WinSPWW2\Game Notes folder the file spww2guide.htm is dated 2006.

When I did the uninstall it said it removed the game but it left the winSPWW2 folder with dlls in there - I did not check if it left a lot fo other stuff. So I deleted the folder manually.

When you uninstall anything you should always follow up & delete manually mosr programs leave bits behind, not so important nowadays with large hard drives.
These games do not leave lines in the registry but most do you should also run a registry check after you have done the uninstall. If your the type of person that tries a lot of demos this is important as the amount of junk registry items will eventually impact on your computer speed.
