I love the new SPWAW 8.2 so much it just made me fall in love with all the things I liked about when I first played back in 96 and 97...

I still have the original steel 2 disc and the original steel disc..was never a big fan of steel3 have that too..

Yesterday I took an old 200 mhz pentium with win 98 on it out of mothballs..worked great on windows 95 at DOS prompt I think its the same with 98....

Tried all the fixes from SPCAMO for XP but I think this is the best way to go...
Anybody know where I can get SPMBT??? I see the patch but not the game..

OH AND BTW HELLO ALL!! :)

I've tried all the usual options.

Staying with 95 and or 98 SE, XP w/partitions devoted to older OS options, and wandering around SP Camo site trying to understand/employ Windows fixes.

Next spring ie 2006, I hope to be buying a totally new computer.
End result, number 1 machine gets labelled number 2, and number 3 gets to be back dated all the way to 95 so I can actually run my antique stash of games I refuse to part with.

I anxiously await SP Camo modifying SPMBT and SPWW2 of course, but even if they succeed there, that won't solve anything for a few other games that were great in their day, and would still be great if I had a computer to run them on.

Les fundemental rule for 2005, never EVER get rid of ANY computer part EVER, unless you KNOW the part is actually broken.
