Will 'Steel Panthers' work with Windows 11 64 Bit?

Considering it does not work out of the box with Windows 10 without special voodoo magic, I’d say no.

Sigh ............ Zovs is incorrect.
It works just fine in Win 11, just as in Win 10.
It presents itself even better in concert with a program called DxWnd.

What Zovs is correct in is: running the game through an emulator - or whatever the hell he tries - in a non-Windows environment does not work. In those circumstances he is correct.

PS: Zovs, please correct me if I'm wrong on this, I can only refer back to previous comments of yours regarding this subject.

You are correct in that I am running Windows in a VM. But all of my games run fine in my VM except SPWAW, all 100 games. Ok I did have to use dxwnd to run EDBTR. SPWW2 and SPMBT work fine as well as WITE2, all 80 of my WDS (JTS) games all work fine but not SPWAW.

I think It works just as well on Windows 11 as it does in Windows 10.

I just closed out a game I'm playing and jumped in here to see if there was anything new.

I'm running it on a Surface Pro 7, Windows 11, no emulator.

I just click the exe (shortcut) and away she goes.
