I have no sound card, which could be the problem, but I am wondering is it because I can only get 24bit color, and the game needs 32bit? (It's a patchwork computer.)
I tried running mech directly, no joy. Tried most of the obvious stuff. It does seem to display a mouse cursor for a second.
This was at the end of the logfile, everything else looks normal: [File Operations 2] Copy: C:\MatrixGames\Steel Panthers World At War\MGN\gs.ini C:\WINNT *FAILED* Copy: C:\MatrixGames\Steel Panthers World At War\mgn\spwawclient.jpg C:\WINNT\System32 *FAILED* Copy: C:\MatrixGames\Steel Panthers World At War\MGN\laser1.wav C:\WINNT\System32 *FAILED*
A sound card is mandatory, the game won't run without one. It only needs 256 colors so your video card isn't causing the problem. thanks, John.
