"A hypertexted version of the World in Flames Players Manuals has been created by the Missouri Rebel. It is included as part of this release as two PDF files. One of those files explains how to use the hypertexted version.
A new menu has been added"

Great Job - Missouri_ Rebel, very much needed and appreciated !

Steve you might want to note that I suggested this to you over 8 years ago and you rejected it as too complicated.

Thanks Subeto and Mziln. It was indeed quite a mundane task.

And honestly, I did this on my own and without permission for private purposes. It wasn't until I was half way through till I approached Steve and Erik.

It must be in the right folder --> <drive letter>:\Matrix Games\World in Flames\Manuals

You may want to rename the old one that's there first, just in case.

or...

perhaps you don't have view extensions on? The full name must be: "Players_Manual_Vol_1.pdf".

Yeah, if you don't have extensions visible just omit the .pdf part.

Sweet! This really wants me to get MWiF working with my three monitor configuration so I could place this manual on the 3rd screen. But, alas ... I still don't get the main map with I have my third monitor on. :(

Thanks for the new manual with the links!

This manual combined with the new official patch has got me into the mood to finish my grand campaign game.

YW Cataphract88. One of the more useful things about using digital manuals is the advanced search feature and with all 3 documents integrated into a single file, a search is complete.
