Im having trouble running PacWars2 on my Win2k system. When I run the program, it loads onto a black screen for about 5 seconds and then crashes to desktop.

Do you have all of the required libraries. I think that you need to install SDL from their web site for sure. Paragui might also be necessary. Seer is implemented in the code so you shouldn't need to get that. You might also want to try building from source. Follow the directions on cvs to get it.

Also, is all of your hardware setup right. I had a probem getting mine to work because I didn't have sound configured right and so somewhere between redhat, SDL, and pacwars, there was a problem.
Also, try starting the program from a console/msdos prompt so that you can see the error messages

all required DLL files are included in latest binary distribution (namely bass.dll). All other libraries (SDL, SDL_net, SDL_mixer, FreeType, PNG, ...) are linked statically to exe. The only help could be the files: stderr.txt and stdout.txt. Try to find out what went wrong.
