People's
General Website by ROBERT MARY 
|
An
addition to Peoples General adapted to WW2 by Mark Kirby
|
Copyright ©
The company was founded
by Joel Billings, a war game enthusiast. He hired programmers
John Lyon, who wrote Computer Bismarck, and Ed Williger, who
wrote Computer Ambush. Both games were written in BASIC as
were many more of SSI's games.Computer Bismarck was released
for the Apple II in January 1980 and for the TRS-80 later in
the year.
Ever since SSI released
its first game the company has developed and published scores
of wargames like : "Tigers In The Snow" (1981) -SSI's
first game for the PC-, "Battles of Napoleon" (1989), "Waterloo" (1990)
or "Clash of Steel" (1993).
In 1994 SSI released
their most important game : "Panzer General" (innovative
RPG elements, accesibility to non-wargamers). PG was the base
for the Five Star system that carried SSI through five major
games : "Panzer General", "Allied General", "Star
General", "Fantasy General", and "Pacific
General".
"Panzer
General II" (1997) was the first major upgrade
to the Five Star system and was the first title of a new
series entitled "Living Battlefield".
Based on the Living
Battlefield engine that made its debut with Panzer General
II, "People's General" (1998) is
a turn-based strategy game which takes a speculative look at
the Eastern Hemisphere in the year 2005.
People's
General uses an updated version of the graphics engine in Panzer
General II, and the controls are similar.
One major difference with People's General as opposed to earlier SSI
wargames is how airpower is handled.
SSI was acquired
by Mindscape in 1994, which was in turn acquired by The Learning
Company, which was "in turn" acquired by Mattel.
From 2003 SSI is a brand name of Ubi Soft.:
An
article about the whole SSI Panzer General series, including
the legendary PG2 and People's General has been
written by Théophile Monnier, at present the chief
editor of "Cyberstratège", a French wargame
magazine. This article can be found here
An
article on PeG-WW2 written by Robert Mary can be
found in a French wargame magazine called
"Cyberstratège" (nr. 6) (click on the image to
see it, an English translation stands on JP'z
Panzer forum):

Welcome
:
This website has been created in order to allow players to download PeG-WW2 campaigns,
most of them being a result of a conversion of PG2 campaigns originally
created by various authors. Each campaign includes all *.map files, a
readme file, the readme file from the PG2 original campaign designer,
and an excel file including campaign flow with references to used map
files.
|
Pre-requesite
:
This site is intended for license owners of "Panzer General 2" and "People's
General" SSI strategic games.
Players will not need PeG game because an installer programme named PeG-WW2
Installer v 5.0 has
been designed. They will also have to get S16 files or to convert SHP
files into S16 format. Most of *.SHP file are available at Steve
Brown's Website

Installation
of additional maps
|
Background: This
section has been created in order to clarify installation
of maps for new comers who often forget to convert the
maps into the adequate format before playing a campaign.
As a result they believe that PeG campaigns are not playable,
this section is dedicated to them. PeG is installed by
default with a minimum number of maps. PG2 and PeG campaign
designers saw soon the opportunity to develop and use "user-made" maps
(*.map and *.SHP files).
|
Preliminary
information:
. PeG and PG2 are using the same maps (*.map files),
however the *.SHP files (used for PG2) need to be converted into
*.S16 files (for PeG). *.map files are always installed
in a SCENARIO directory whereas *.S16 files must be installed
in a MAP directory. |
Step
|
Instructions
|
Links
|
1.
|
Install
PG2 on your Hard Disk Drive.
|
|
2.
|
Install
PeG-WW2 on your Hard Disk Drive.
|
|
3.
|
Install *.map files
(always part of my campaign zip files) in PG2\SCENARIO and in
PeG\SCENARIO. I
also add in my campaign packages an Excel file showing the
exact map required per scenario with its corresponding map
number (which is often needed for identification purposes
before download). |
|
4.
|
Download
additional *.SHP files (see the "link" section
below, there is not only Steve Brown's website but also
Builder's Paradise, Panzer General2.com, the Latin's General,
the Baltic's General, 5 Stars General, ...). Steve
has a dedicated map section with a complete list of all
user-made maps, including the corrected maps.
|
|
5.
|
Install the
*.SHP files in PG2\MAP (nb: installing all existing user-made
maps so far would require approximately 700 MB hard disk
space, however just those I'm using are needed to play
my converted campaigns).
|
|
6.
|
Install
Luis Guzman's PeG Suite (preferably in the main directory
of PeG).
|
|
7.
|
In
the "Tools\settings and files" menu of Luis'
PeG Suite, define the game folder of the PG2-SHP files.
|
|
8.
|
In
the "View\Browser" menu of Luis' PeG Suite, click
on "Convert from PG2 button", then define the "PeG
Map folder" as PeG\Map. At this stage click on "OK" button
and this is over: SHP files are automatically converted
into S16 format and transfered into the adequate PeG directory
(nb: converting all existing user-made maps so far would
require approximately 1,4 GB hard disk space.

This e-file
is to be used for PeG-WW2 campaigns taking place on the Eastern
Front (see table of campaigns for details). Changes were
carried out in order to improve realism and gameplay. Soft
attack value of all arty units has been reduced by 50%, all
bombers (helo class #12) and air transport units (class #14)
have a virtual fighter escort, furthermore fighter-bombers
(TB class #11) are coupled with virtual bombers. |
