why nobody still play this amazing wargame?

[quertice]

yes, it's really old, the interface is just horrible, but it's still the best air strategic campaign wargame!



want all wargamers only land combat as TOAW and WITE? nobody care about air war wargames?

Patience, me lad, patience. LONG term (think years) plans are for a BTR add-on to WitW. That will probably fix a lot of what is wrong with the current version me and thee are stuck playing with for now. WitW has a nice strategic bombing component to it, although it does not have the depth of, nor a fully developed EW/ECM component like BTR. But as I said be patient and one day we will all have a much improved version of what we have now.

I can't run it on Win 7. Is there a way around this? It messes up the interface size and visuals as is. I have single screen 1920 x 1080. If not for that I'd be playing it. I had the original BTR and indeed still have the disc and manual. It may look old, but it's really good!

Any advice on getting it to run visually ok?

Well, playing windowed mode (1024x768) don't work for you?

[AndyG1]

How do I get it to work in Windowed mode?

[cohimbra]

You can select it in the ingame Option or adding -w to the exe (create a shortcut linking to btr.exe, then go to properties and add -w in destination, after the last ").

This is a really good new for me! It would be when released a perfect modern version of BtR

where WITW developers talked about this future add-on? do you remember the thread?

I play EDtBtR full screen on windows 7 with a 1920*1080 monitor without any problems, I don't know where is the issue with game no running

It was on the WitW dev board. Basically it was about long term plans for the franchise. A BTR add-on being one of them. So at the moment that is all that it is, a plan. Plans change. So don't get to excited.

I wouldn't hold my breath.

[joey]

Not holding my breath, but a BOB add on would also be nice. j

[warshipbuilder]

but a BOB add on would also be nice

Oh boy, now you are entering on to the realm of what would be called a drug induced fantasy[X(]

[joey]

I always liked BOB better than BTW. BOB has more of a feeling of desperation on both sides. One side of the other has to win in an short period of time.

Drug induced never - alcohol induced maybe.....
