*Lava* -> RE: Gave the old demo a go... (4/24/2006 7:31:18 PM)

Hi!

When I do that Ralph I only have a 16 or 32 bit option.

Could it be the monitor?

I'm using 32 bit color depth but my video driver is the orignal one from mid '04 that came loaded with the computer. I really guess I need to update my video driver.

Hi, try setting to 16-bit color, 800x600 resolution, and then rebooting the computer...

If that works, you can then set your resolution back to whatever it was and load the game again to see if it still works....

There is a way in the demo you can play other senarios as well. Some of them like the African ones won't work too well because some of the graphic files are missing, but the Normandy one works fine.

I do beleive it involves renaming the *.sce (senario) files to *.sav (save game) and then loading them in the game. But it's been so long i'm not sure if I remember. [8|]

There still is the 10-12 turn limit though. Forgot about the work around for that.

That sounds like it might work. Save games in TOAW are basically self-contained and interchangeable with scenario files.

It might be a matter of doing the reverse of the above. Then the turn count would be reset to 1.

That is true - it does work to an extent. However you lose all the events scripted to trigger after turn XX as a result.

Confusion all around. Are you talking about the TOAW1 demo or the TOAW COW demo? The COW demo lets you play the entire campaign. No 10-12 turn limit...

For the missing graphics: Have a look at http://www.tdg.nu/ there are some user made graphics for download.

There is also a way to built the complete COW with the demo, the 1.04 patch, manual registry entries and the no-cd patch...

Yeah. When one is doing this with regular TOAW for whatever reason, you have to go into the editor and change all the events trigger and reinforcement turns. But in the demo, presumably this isn't possible.
