Hello mousEE :) :)
thanks your works here. :D
I got a problem with the PUDDraft.
It said you have to find a WAR2.EXE before you use it.
No idea where this file is.
Do you know what to do? ^-^ ^-^

hi frand, it's been so long since i used it i'm afraid i don't really remember. you could try navigating to the c:\war2combat folder and selecting one of the .exes in there and see if it works. if not you might need the old dos version or something, i know there's a way to get it working but just don't remember rn, if i can figure it out i'll post & let you know :)

 ;D ;D ;D oh God.
I made it out!
I check the other version installer I download couple days before.
There is the 'war2.exe" there.
And i located it. It works!
What a luck! :) :) :)

btw, i download that version from MyAbandonware.com.
and the version is BtDP version.

Still , there is a warning box come out, says "Access violation at ....."
i don't see anything wrong after closing the box.

Thank you all the same.  ^-^mousEE :) :) :) ^-^

IIRC War2.exe is the executable from the original DOS (pre battlenet) version of the game. PUDDraft pulls some recources from there. That will be the version you got from abandonware.
its gooder to hax hard and NEVER get caught!
