Status: offline 		On your site you have a URL for the V2.0 to V4.1 update, however when you go to the site for d'load it is the FULL version d'load, 300+megs NOT the 137meg d'load of V2.0 to V4.1. Since I already have version 3 of the game from a CD featured in "PcGamer" I don't require the FULL d'load, just the relatively small updates that will take the game to version 4.4. Is this an oversite at Matrix and will the URL listed offer the correct upgrade? As I stated in an earlier post I don't have CDRW and I'd prefer not to clutter the HDD with a 300+meg file I don't need. I guess you have 2 choices here, either provide a URL where the V2.0 to V4.1 upgrade can be downloaded or remove the update from the "downloads" page. ---Best regards Brian R. aka Gary7 P.S. SPWaW is a terrific game, however because of this stumbling block I'm unable to enjoy the benefits of version 4.4.

Status: offline 		We are reading your E-Mail, Gary. I read your other post and this one. I have not been to the download site to check on this problem. May I say the following, however. Here is a post from Chantell in another thread. This would be the easiest way. -------------- I don't know if anybody else has pointed this out yet, but version 4.0 of SP:WAW is contained on the Computer Gaming World demo disk in the dec. issue. I just got my subscription issue yesterday, loaded the game and it runs fine. Just got done downloading the patches to get from V4.0 to V4.4 and everything appears to run just fine. So I'd suggest getting a copy of CGW and try that. Hopefuly it solves your delima. Good luck. --------- Now if you choose not to do that, you should get as you say, version 4.0, then the next versions 4.1,4.2,4.3,4.4. I checked and you are right. I will call this to the attention of David Heath, who is in charge of this part of the page. You might want to drop him a line directly too in the meantime. Here is his e-mail address. davidh@matrixgames.com I would send it to you but a file this size does not work in a regular e-Mail. Sorry. Either get Computer Gaming World if it is available or drop David a note. I'll do the same. He is in NY and I am in Ga. I'll do all I can to help you...Wild Bill ------------------ In Arduis Fidelis Wild Bill Wilder Coordinator, Scenario Design Matrix Games [This message has been edited by Wild Bill (edited October 24, 2000).]

Status: offline 		Thanks to those that replied, Wild Bill, "Fabio's" site lists both upgrades but unfortunately they point to the same URL for both versions: "SPWaW 4.0 Upgrade" and "SPWaW 4.0 FULL" Here again the infamous: http://www.gamesdomain.co.uk/directd/2318.html All the "links" have done is mirror the d'load links from the "Matrix" download page. Thank's for the effort, guess I'll have to wait for the DEC issue of "Computer Gaming World" at a bookstore. The Nov. issue is now being sold, so I'll have to wait about another 2 weeks till it hits a bookstore's shelf. SPWaW is a GREAT game but darn I'm missing out on the enhancements! ---Best regards Brian R. aka Gary7
