It's worse than I thought. I've had time to actually go through the metadata and match it with valid ZIP files:

SP1: 577 items, 2 saved (below 1%) -- NOTE this has some SP2 stuff, due to poor organization
SP2: 317 items, 1 saved (below 1%)
SP3: 11 items, 11 saved (100%)

Even with those losses, what you do have is enough to keep busy with for quite a while

Default Re: Blitzkrieg Banzai? (SP1 Conversion)

I resurrected a lot of the old scenarios, I called them missing and lost, there were only 15 or so for WW2 (a lot already exited or were ported over), I also found 2-4 campaigns and ported them over all are in the game now. For MBT I found and fixed around 80 or so, also in the game. I have already picked through that massive tar file and recovered all that could be found or recovered, a lot were SPWAW even though they were listed as WW2 ones. So double check what is already in both games, use ScenHack and search for “missing and lost” or resurrected.

Default Re: Blitzkrieg Banzai? (SP1 Conversion)

I managed to rip a lot of stuff from old internet archive copies of the Wargamer today using a site downloader:

LINK to main page

LINK showing everything inside it

I managed to recover:

SPWAW: 496
SPWW2: 61
SPMBT: 124
SP2: 1

The reason for the distribution is I think rather simple:

Internet Archive (and others) chose what to save based on popularity -- the more people downloaded something, the more likely it was to be saved.

In the early 2000s; running DOS was becoming harder and harder -- DOSBOX wouldn't come out until January 2002; so SPWAW was more popular at the time; since it was a native Win9x app.

So all the SP1 and SP2 scenarios were not archived because at the time, nobody was playing them.

Default Re: Blitzkrieg Banzai? (SP1 Conversion)

I am getting what I have together, some of the stuff is from before 2000 so it will be the older stuff. I enjoyed many of the older scenarios and would love to see them in the current format. Plus all the maps I made I would like to get use as well from back then.

This game (both versions) has become one my favorites and it continues to be fun. With all the stuff Andy and Don have done it is not going anywhere, at least not for me.

I think I have some of the missing ones, I am still storing things and trying to get folders in one grouping vs ones with SP1-MBT as the names.

Default Re: Blitzkrieg Banzai? (SP1 Conversion)

You have to take a step further, some of those already exist in the games but with different names. I spent a lot good time triple checking things in that tar file.

Grab the nukes is already converted and in MBT.

Also some of those iirc say they are SPWW2 but we’re in fact the “other game”. Also some (4-9) just could not be converted because of OOB data issues.

Not trying to discourage you but I have already been there and done that. It would be better in my option to just start fresh and create new ones. St Lo is a good example the data while converted with the present tools was totally screwed up (not the fault of the tools, just 15-20 year old OOBs) and I just deleted the whole mess and am creating a new campaign based on newer and better resources and not having to figure what the original creator was thinking. I converted over 100 of these and the 4 campaigns, it’s a big pita and I for one am only moving forward with new designs and less headaches. YMMV
