I'm having problems with my WWII campaign crahing as well as a regular campaign ending mid game and declaring it a draw. I was still alive and holding objectives or attacking objectives. ------------------ All's a rush till the rounds start flying-and your friends start dying.

Try deleting the steel.prf file from your save directory. Then reboot and start with your last campaign save. That should help. It appears to be something with the vcr replay, whether you use it or not, that corrupts the steel.prf file.

Thanks W.B. I'll give it a try. I don't use the replay on purpose. I've hit it a few times by accident trying to hit the B key. ------------------ All's a rush till the rounds start flying-and your friends start dying.

I couldn't locate the steel.prf file. Is it possible that I don't have it or do I need to dig deeper? ------------------ All's a rush till the rounds start flying-and your friends start dying.

Oh, its there, as Tankhead says. Look inside the save directory inside your SPWAW main directory. Delete it. Reboot your machine. Restart the game, it will make a new "clean" one. It simply stores the preferences you choose for the game. It makes a new one each time it is removed with default settings.

The Key ican with steel under it is the Steel.prf file and is the one you want to delite.
