I bought it.





WAIT...I bought it a long time ago...

Maybe I can corrupt my Best Friend into buying it. HAH-HAH...he may be divorced by his new wife...

The problem isn't money, it's time. I have a lot of Matrix titles but there's only so much time in a day. Anyway, great to see some realistic prices for some of the oldies but goodies.

Cheers,
CB

With war in the Pacific ae, the smaller scenarios are reasonable for a new player?

Yes,

Additional scenarios have been added over the years as well.

Please tell me this works with Windows 10 without a lot of song and dance.

Microsoft ran W10 down my throat and WitP augured in like a Zero hit by six .50 cal.

Never could make it work.

Can I get back into WitP?

I don't know about WITP.

I know that WITP-AE works with windows 10 if your computer meets the min. specs.

But to install WITP-AE there is some song and quite a bit of dance involved.

Taxcutter-I'm no computer whiz. I dislike fiddling with install lines and don't bother with a number of the unofficial betas or post-market unofficial add-ons (e.g., Tracker). I'm no luddite, but I don't find 'joy' in monkeying with computer settings like many others do.

But if *I* can figure out how to get it to run on Windows 10 (which I had to do a couple years ago), you can too.

Follow the guidelines on the Tech Issues WiTP:AE subforum for best configuration results. Particularly relevant for you would be 'switches' and Win10 compatibility threads. There are many that may address your questions. And forumites with a ken for fiddly bits like this are usually quite helpful in troubleshooting your efforts too.

Good luck! And welcome aboard. [8D]

WITP was not designed to work with switches that make it possible for the game to work with Win 10. WITP-AE is designed to use these switches.
I was also in the boat of having Win 10 forced on me after a hard drive crash, and I dreaded tackling all the issues that had been identified with running the game under Win 10.
But I had been reading the threads in the tech section and was able to quickly find what to do an was running the game smoothly within a few hours of the install and patch to beta. No need to dread - the problems have all occurred on other users and the answers have been found and posted in the tech section. [:)]




Trugrit -> RE: 2019 Matrix Holiday Sale is live (11/29/2019 6:34:36 PM)


Yep,

I got a new computer with Windows 10 already installed.
So I had to build from the ground up.

I was fortunate in that I already knew about the upgrades and switches and how to apply them.
I knew I would just have to get the right combination.

It looks like with the sale price a lot of new players may come in.

They are use to installing a game and having it run right out of the box.
They may not know how to build from the ground up.

I guess you are going to have to stand by for them and clam them down.

Thanks for the info on WITP.

Yeah, we need longer days!!!!![:D]




Saturn V -> RE: 2019 Matrix Holiday Sale is live (11/30/2019 5:31:29 AM)

I should have waited. ;)

I picked up the game during the Easter sale earlier this year when it was, I think, 30% off the normal full price. (Final purchase cost at the time was about $55 Cdn.) On the up side, Bombing the Reich is less than $14 Cdn during the current Holiday sale, so waiting in the case of that game was worthwhile. :)
