Do you still remember the good old first Steel Panthers game?...
We can proudly present our PIBWL improvement pack
for the Mother of all SP-family games
the ultimate 1.5 release (01. 01. 2003)
(development closed)
However the original SSI Steel Panthers I is a magnificent game, but it contains many - smaller or bigger - mistakes and errors concerning both the units and formations, especially as for smaller countries. That's why since 1998 we have been developing this improvement pack.
We have improved a historic accuracy, correcting data of all existing units.
We have also added over 250 new units to different countries.
About half of them are completely new - most with new pictures
We have corrected most countries, no matter how big they are
- so that the gamers from so-called "minor countries" should be satisfied as well.
We've tried to delete wrong units only, and we haven't removed any country.
With our pack you can play almost every scenario from the original game (the details are in attached text file).
If you have any comments - share with us
See the illustrated list of new units in PIBWL 1.5 pack
You can read a documentation here
(it is also included in zip file below).
Now we present 1.5 release
Our thanks to Dan Morris for a help in the latest release!
1.5 - a few general things changed, further data and picture corrections, added units and pictures (especially corrected Holland). See more details in a text file.
1.42 - some data and picture improvements, added untis, corrected some of "small" countries

1.33 - corrected and improved weapons' data file

In case you noticed any bugs, let us know.
To install our pack, you must follow these three simple steps:
1. CLICK HERE to get new DATA FILES and documentation.
Then you should unzip it and copy 5 files: obbr, obja, obma, obpz and obus into your "Steel Panthers" main folder (or just unzip all into main folder).
Warning! These files will OVERWRITE the existing ones, so you may want to make a backup first.
2. Click HERE to get NEW PICTURES
Unzip them into your Steel Panthers "PIC" sub-folder (if you haven't such folder - you should create it).
Most of our pictures are COLOR since 1.4 release. These should not overwrite any original pictures, but they will overwrite our earlier and worse new pictures and they might overwrite pictures from other private sources (it's recommended to manage pictures using some picture browser).
3. Try our color improved pictures then!
The improved pictures can be installed even if you decide not to install the rest of our pack.
They fit well to either standard or modified SP-I, or to Steel Panthers-III, or even (after some name changes) to SPWW2.
