David Heath -> Steel Panthers World At War v7.1 Complete Game is Now Available (4/24/2002 4:56:44 AM)
For those who are new to SPWaW here is some background. SPWaW is hex based top down view using a alternating turn based (I go you go or IGOUGO) design. SPWaW has added timed play feature as well giving each player set amount of time to conduct his turn before the turn ends and his opponent turn begins. Armor, gun and vehicle units are represents one per icon. Each infantry squad can have up to 19 men in it. A crew can represent from 1 to 4 men and include machine guns or mortars. Each hex represents 50 yards of terrain with many new terrain features added. Each game turn represents a few minutes of real time. SPWaW is a very highly refined version of Steel Panthers III placed in the Steel Panthers I game scale. We used Steel Panthers III since it was the most stable version of the game engine. This game is a complete game and 100% free. SPWaW is a true Windows games and does not require DOS. SPWaW will run on Windows 95 / 98 / ME / NT / 2000 / XP. SPWaW will also run under OS/2 and Linux as well. Version: 7.1 Filesize: 439.09 MB http://www.matrixgames.com/insidemg/modules.php?name=Downloads

[QUOTE]Originally posted by sven [B] Bernie if you have comcast high speed it takes 27 minutes during the evening.... regards, sven-lost on the information superhighway... [/B][/QUOTE] I do, but I had to get it from Edome and the best I could do was 82kbs with a d/l manager. As a single d/l (without the manager) the best speed I could get was 38kbs. Then the unzipping took almost as long as the d/l! There's a post about this in the "Accessing from another computer" thread.

Supervisor -> Great news (4/24/2002 6:52:39 AM)
Well thats about the best news I've heard in a while. I would give you a cookie but it would be stale by the time you got it, so I'll give you a sticky instead!:D :D :D

Skyfire7631 -> (4/24/2002 11:40:28 PM)
Many thanks, and just a quick question : Does this full version include the small fixes (new US OOB, some shp files ...) that were posted here after the release of the 7.1 patch ? Thanks again. Regards.

David Heath -> (4/25/2002 12:18:19 AM)
No it does not. You will still need any and all patches that came out after our v7.1 release. David

Skyfire7631 -> (4/25/2002 2:34:36 PM)
OK, roger that. Thanks. Regards.

Capt Chris -> (4/25/2002 11:24:47 PM)
Are the stereo sounds included or is that a seperate d/l?

[QUOTE]Originally posted by m200 [B] Are there any patches that came out after the 7.1 patch??? Where could I download them? m200 [/B][/QUOTE] These are not really patches, but some fixes, you can find them in [URL=http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=39]this forum[/URL] As for the stero sounds, I don't think they're included in this full 7.1 version, which should have a size of more than 600 MB if they were. But I could be wrong ... Regards.

Supervisor -> (4/27/2002 5:11:45 AM)
Updated Stereo sounds are included in the 7.1 full installation. They have been included with all full installs since ver 5.3. The only other patches at this time are directly related to each Mega Campaign.

Wayne1956 -> (4/27/2002 6:45:28 AM)
Can someone verify this download, I downloaded 7.1 and it shows: 420 MB, 440,850 bytes Is this what everyone has?

Bernie -> (4/27/2002 6:49:19 AM)
Unfortunately, the link here takes you to gamesdomain, which shows two USA links, one of which is broken and the other is either constantly busy and refusing connections, or, when you do connect, gives d/l speeds of only 52kbs. I also see that the file is in Zip format, and I have to again question why. The savings for that sized file (since the executable inside is also compressed) is only 18-20 megs, a mere pittance compared to the file size and due to the fact that it takes far longer to unzip the file than downloading the additional 18-20 megs would take. You also then need less HD space to do the install since you don't end up with the 400+ meg zip file, and the executable, and the actual install (before cleanup that is). Yes, I know I'm complaining about something that's free, but if there are problems Matrix needs to know about it.

Wayne1956 -> (4/27/2002 7:12:06 PM)
Bump Can someone verify my earlier post on file size? Is 420 mb (zipped) the correct dowmload size?

Supervisor -> (4/28/2002 1:05:48 AM)
It's 430528k/1024(standard k byte recognition) =420.173 So the answer would be yes zipped, it will approx double in size after installation.

Wayne1956 -> (4/28/2002 1:13:49 AM)
Thanks for the answer :)

[QUOTE]Originally posted by David Heath [B]No it does not. You will still need any and all patches that came out after our v7.1 release. David [/B][/QUOTE] I'm confused. I just downloaded the complete 7.1 zip file to save on a CD. I also saved the 7.1 patch that came out a few days later. Now, do I need to apply the 7.1 patch to the 7.1 game I just downloaded, OR, is the 7.1 patch just a patch to bring versions 7.0 and lower up to 7.1? Another question. I have an earilier copy of the game that I've patched up to 7.1. Is this copy now identical to the complete 7.1 that I just downloaded? Do I need to apply the 7.1 patch to this earlier "upgraded to 7.1" copy?

Paul Vebber -> (4/30/2002 2:01:29 AM)
The Full version is version 7.1 - You do NOT have to apply the 7.1 patch, but you do have to apply any mega-campaing patches, or add any of the corrected files that were posted on the OOB forum. At some point we may consolidate them into a 7.11 patch, but that is a low priority right now.

So, how full 7.1 version (around 420 MB) can include both ? Regards.

Regards. [/B][/QUOTE] Bear in mind that the stereo sounds were replacement sounds for what was already in the game. When you had v5.01 in one hand, and the stereo sound files in the other, you actually had two copies of the sounds. Now the stereo sounds are already in the game, replacing the ones that were there before. I doubt they are significantly bigger than the originals.

Skyfire7631 -> (4/30/2002 3:40:00 PM)
Well, yes, you're right, that makes sense :) Regards.

EchelonOne -> Download links dead (5/2/2002 4:08:26 AM)
Anybody know of working links to download the new/full version of SPWaW v7.1? All of GamesDomain links are dead and have been for over a week now at least. A reliable source is needed I think. Any clues???

Supervisor -> (5/2/2002 4:33:39 AM)
The first US, the first UK and Sweden link all work for me. All others appear to be dead though.

Bernie -> (5/2/2002 6:21:28 AM)
[QUOTE]Originally posted by gmenfan [B]The first US, the first UK and Sweden link all work for me. All others appear to be dead though. [/B][/QUOTE] The first US link is gamedomain.com 35kbs if you're very, very lucky.

Brigz -> (5/2/2002 7:27:33 AM)
I downloaded from those links about a week ago but it took several trys. I finally got on the first US link. You just have to be persistent. If you don't get a download window, just cancel and keep trying. You will eventually get in. Warning: even with my DSL line it took nearly two hours. Slow link.

Skyfire7631 -> (5/2/2002 3:02:42 PM)
Looking at this thread, it seems to me that it could be a good idea, especially for newbies, to write a small install guide (either with patching from 5.01 to 7.1, or a direct 7.1 install, with the OOB fixes explained as well). What do you think ? Regards.

EchelonOne -> GamesDomain links are dead (5/2/2002 6:33:35 PM)
Those links are dead, I have no luck with them PERIOD.

Bing -> Re: GamesDomain links are dead (5/2/2002 11:06:05 PM)
[QUOTE]Originally posted by EchelonOne [B]Those links are dead, I have no luck with them PERIOD. [/B][/QUOTE] Not so from here: The US and UK links work, all of the others produce nothing but error pages. Problem is, the links that do work are the slowest I have seen since I had cable IP installed. I started the downloads in each case where it was possible and one of them came up with a 49 hour download. With cable this should be in the area of 45 minutes to an hour, not 2+ days. Great idea, nice try, better luck next time Matrix. Bing
