FYI Well. There is lots of new features in 5.0. Lots of nice things and tweaks that make me happy. Point IS: There is so much useless stuff that I dont need. Scenarios for one thing..

Status: offline 		You'll need these scenarios because they are checked/corrected to work with 5th release. If you don't need them then its ok, but think about how many others will and want to play them. Also if all the changes are made to separate update-files, it would be very difficult to play with someone else, as there would not be any common base game anymore. But if you don't like to play against others, its ok. This leaves just those campaings. Do you play them? Look this as a answer to many other questions of this 5th release. This is nothing personal, but your questions are good. mosh

Status: offline 		Paul!!! Could you please open up a mirror to the file somewhere... It aint very funny to just sit and wait when the server is busy. I dont know how many people that are trying to download the file just now, but it is a lot!!! (Okay I got an idea...everyone except me download the path, okay :)....)

I play PBEM _only_. And do You think I am not familiar with Windows (95/98) enviroment?? :) There are only few main files you need to get 5.0 working (PBEM), and scenarios + other things are not those. With minimum files (+ new graphics), I would say that this patch would be around 20-30mb.

So you are saying, that there is no possibility to make one smaller zip-file that would include ONLY the files that are needed to update SPWAW 4.5 -> 5.0? Even without updating scenarios the game will start, won't it ;) And btw, you do not need any scenario files to play human vs. human games...random battles are more than enough, especially if one just makes appropriate map for the random battle ;) Colonel von Blitz

Status: offline 		:( I have downloaded netvampire, and when I try to get to the upgrade download page I get what I believe to be a page not available error in ie5. I try to use netvampire and I can't even get the size of the file (although I know 178+megs). I was wondering if there are some settings for nv that I could use that would make things work. Thanks for any assistance, Bob

Status: offline 		Looks like the download site is unreachable. I have tried to download the upgrade for the last 12 hours. If no mirror sites show up, could someone with a high speed connection send the file to me through ICQ or FTP, please? Then I could send the file to few people in Finland and in Sweden. That should reduce the traffic in the d/l server a little bit. Thanks. My ICQ: 41563609 AIM: ktroniik
