| miners is the workers..so click on thoose to see what u can build (lowst icon in the corner)
to make miners..click on the main building and make people..
to make warriors use a miner to make a house where they develop warriors (of sorts) ... its pretty elementary and most of all its identical to warcraft 1 , warcraft 2 and dune 2 for that matter..
if u cant find docs... then grab a warcraft2 cd as that will help (same docs for both more or less (and any stratagus game) ..

| plays about as fast as in shapeshifter here (if not a tad faster...) i used 060 and turboevd in shapeshifter.
anyway i noticed people on other plattforms complaining about speed aswell but then again sdl might be the reason or the stratagus team screwed up. _________________ See my blog and collection website! . https://www.blog.amigaguru.com

Thanks, but I'm pretty thick, and I've never played any of those games, so it's a little tricky making the rules up as I go
When I get to the list of buildings I can construct, there don't seem to be any descriptions of the buildings, so I just have to try each one and see what I get. Then when I'm busy building, the other army appears and kills all my engineers. Grrr, it's difficult to play long enough to learn anything. |

| RedMelon:try some simpler levels at first, then u might learn it tooo (just noticed that its very hard....i got killed before i had made some figheters)
anyway one of the best tips would be, dont show too much of the map before youre ready, ie dont walk around before you have a proper army both to walk around with and to protect your base. _________________ See my blog and collection website! . https://www.blog.amigaguru.com

| About speed of Stratagus...the FAQ mentions that:
"Q: Stratagus runs really slow in large resolutions, what can I do? A: Versions of Stratagus from 2.1 update the screen every frame, and are designed to be used with OpenGL support. Using Software/SDL to update large screens is too slow and will cause the game to be slow. Use OpenGL if possible, or play in 640x480."
I just noticed that Stratagus seems to have an OpenGL backend so in theory using miniGL might boost things up. |

| @Orgin: still about MAC version. When checking Wargus FAQ, I found:
" Q: What W*rcr*ft 2 CD's do work with Wargus? A: If you have any trouble with extracting, please contact us. Also if you have a CD not listed here, please send us the test results.
* US Expansion (both MAC/DOS) * US Original (both MAC/DOS) * UK/Australian Original * UK/Australian Expansion * German Original * German Expansion * Spanish Original "
So your CD should work. I wonder if 'wartool' gives any error during extraction? Could you list the files on the CD? My installation script isn't very sophisticated so it might no copy all stuff. |

Hm, I have the Sega Saturn version of Warcraft 2 at home, I wonder if it might work; it seems like I have to test this, but i would be surprised if it worked.
Ciao, Alfred |

| If any of you have been having problems with Wargus crashing with an AI error in late games, I have posted a fix to os4depot. |
