Status: offline 		I just want to share my clicking experience with SPWAW 2016 and artillery click bug feature on core i7 with Windows 10.

I manage to control the artillery menu by clicking at two tor three different location in the same hex / box. Its just like double click, but I need to move the mouse a bit for the second click, and additional third click just to make sure. So its a triple click.

The trick seems to work without having to press shift or shift/L button.
I tested with fixed affinity core 7 or core 0 but its no different (with control-shift-esc - detail tab - set affinity).
Also I remove the /affinity 80 from mech.exe and it still work fine.

A little bit difficult on the small artillery command box, but that's the fun.
Triple shifted clicks on each hex/box is just like playing game. Well it is a game... :-D
Its a feature now :-)

But as soon more time will download for sure, I still have XP in one of PCs so should have no probs running it. I still have 8.4 and H2H installed and both seem to work :)

Unfortunately no.
Y'know, I'd be up for tackling one of those bad-boys but AFAIK the editor(s) for that flavour is propriety and that's where Matrix makes their money. Though TBF I haven't asked yet.

What up Erik? I've already converted at least 20 Campaigns so far on my resume.

Yeah, I would pay for the megas if they were updated to SP:WaW 2016 and (and it's a big AND) they would work with Command & Control ON. Yes, I would pay for them even though the successor game is being worked on now.

So please, Matrix, let the Good Major Mess work on them!

Status: offline 		Just stumbled on this! Had never expected to ever run this again. Downloaded and it ran fine under Win10 which I was amazed at. Obviously fairly dated graphics etc but had a great play all the same.

Well done and thanks.
