Command Aces of the Deep and Win 7

@ Nipplelspanner; Thanks for posting this!

My copy of AOD was installed on my current PC using the original five 3 1/2" floppies since I had, for reasons now lost retained my old floppy drive. Also installed were the first patch disk (obtained by mail from Dynamix) and the Expansion disk bought new. Still have all the original disks, game box, manuals and gridded chart!

Unfortunately the ancient floppy disk drive has since died (and almost cooked my motherboard doing it) so I had no way to fix or replace my AOD installation should something go wrong.

Good Hunting

Many thanks for this Nipplespanner! Running on Windows 7 64 bit. No compatibility mode or forced color or resolution was needed.
Oddly, checking compatibility mode or "run in 256 colors" caused the game to crash for me.

Any idea what is missing or rather added in CAOD compared to this AOD+Addon?

For any interested.......The manual in PDF
Keyboard Commands are near the bottom. [Printable quick reference card on page 5]

I am surprised. In spite of it's dated graphics, this game still has it's share of good "pucker" moments and is quite fun to play.
Man, we sure got good manuals in those days!

Nippelspanner, if you're still out there, the link where you posted your installer for AOD+Addon appears to be bad; do you still have it someplace?
