SPWAW 6079 scenario pack 1:

Here is a small collection of 12 scenarios and one campaign for the SPWAW 6079 mod. You can rename the original ww2 "scen" and "Campaigns" folders and then unzip these into the SPWAW main folder.

The scenarios are mostly conversions of the original SP2 ones.

Riitaoja I suppose you meant 1960-79 scenario pack[:'(]? 6079 sounds very futuristic[;)]...

Thanks anyway!

SPCAMO patch for the SPWAW 1960-1979 mod.

This is a small patch for those who use the SPCAMO repainted icons with the mod. It includes the following corrections:

- T-55 and T-62 turrets swapped. "Icon0005.shp"
- Infantry icons shadows added. "Icon0010.shp - Icon0013.shp & Icon0028.shp - Icon0031.shp"
- T-64 turret position corrected. "Icon0048.shp"
- Included the SPWAW compatible Icon0035.shp & Icon0036.shp with camo. (landing barge graphics)

To use simply unzip the files into your SHP directory.
Only use this patch if you are using SPWAW 1960-1979 mod with the SPCAMO repainted icons!

I have no plans to create a 1980-1999 mod at the moment.

However if anyone wants to improve this mod or use it as a basis for a new mod that is fine by me.

Btw, does anyone here (Riitaoja?) know if there's similar program (like DXWnd) to DOS games (SP2 for example)too? I'd like to play with windowed "stretched" screen...

edit:Sorry that I didn't posted this into DXWnd topic. Just forgot it's existence[;)]...

DosBox has all the options needed for running in windowed mode and changing the window size as needed.

For example in the DosBox config file the following lines:

fullscreen=false
windowresolution=1024x768
output=ddraw

Would make DosBox run in a 1024x768 resolution window.

If you change the output line to read:
output=opengl
then a much better image quality can be achieved. This however may not work on all computers.

I also wrote some basic instructions about DosBox configuration in this post a while back:

Yes I know Dosbox and it's features but it allows only small windowed screen and full screen (alt+enter). At least what I have seen by using it. If there's more screen size options let me know[:'(]...

The reason you get only a small Window in DosBox is that by default output is set to "surface".

As I explained in my post above you need to set the output line to read "ddraw" or "opengl".

You can then use the desired window size by typing in the resolution in the windowsresolution line of the config file. In my example 1024x768 resolution was used but this can be what ever you want.

Thanks[:)]. I somehow forgot that config file and how to change default options... Hmm that 1024x768 is better size that full screen/small screen imho.

Yes, of course. I see no reason not to post it there also. I just wasn't registered at the Depot a year ago.
