I remember way back in the early 90s when I had an old DOS-game called WWII: Battles of the South Pacific. It was a rare strategy game, and very addicting. Anyone know where to find it? I can't find it for download anywhere, I would love to be able to play it again.

This one..? (http://www.mobygames.com/game/wwii-battles-of-the-south-pacific)
PM me your email and I'll send it to you. :)
:mhh: it's not on Abandonia, either... I should upload it to the FTP when I get a chance, as well.

don't forget, you can play this multi-player using "dial-up" over an Hamachi Network.
Also, if you're not so savvy with Dosbox and Daemon, you may need a hand getting it to install.
The files I have are the two original floppies, so it requires a change in the A:\ directory mid-install.
I've been using Daemon tools, using the discs as .iso's to do this - mounting a:\ as the virtual CD drive.

Rhelms - I've sent you the files with instructions and the manual (as PDF).
Manual is needed for copy-protection. I haven't bothered attempting a crack, as we've got the manual.
If you want to write a review of the game, in return for my hours and hours of back-breaking labour, that'd be :thumbs:!
If not, let us know so we can put it on the "Needing Reviews" list.
Cheers Matey!
