I am currently uploading a test version of Spanish Air War which has been re-adjusted for 1.28C. By the time I have finished the post it should be ready at:

http://www.users.on.net/pam_biddell/SAW.exe

Run the self installer (SAW.exe) in your 1.28C folder.

If you have OAW128 (ideally V13) then select the "C-SAW" folder, and then launch EAW.
If you do not have OAW128 then look inside the installed "OAW128" folder for the "C-SAW" folder, and manually copy and paste the "Dir.set" file from inside the "C-SAW" folder into your EAW folder.

Please let me know of any problems you encounter, extra files may need to be added for cockpit gauges and there may be other problems about which I am blissfully unaware.

However, by downloading this it also gives some modders (and EAW users in general) a chance to see how the the "cdf.set/dir.set/folder" structure works in 1.28C.

It also means that any 7217 victims who have installed the latest "JIM" can set up a SAW mission, load "C-SAW" launch the 1.28C exe and hit Ctrl-Q to fly their mission.

SAW needs the ground objects detail set to high.

DAW (Desert Air War) is on its way there too- same format as SAW:

..again this is for testing, and not some form of official re-release- that would be up to the original modders.

Jell,
in the SAW exe have you pulled the tmod table from the original ? that is the main problem with using a new exe with SAW ...


cheers,

Pobs.
No- it is 1.28C compatible.
The TMod.dat is included in the install, but it would be great if you could compare it with the original (and tarnames.str), and edit it so that it uses the values that you really want, yet remains 1.28C compatible.

Hi guys,
installers work fine.

















I have a few problems with a CTD when selecting certain planes in single mission.
Don't know exactly what it is.......was able to go back to it and select it and fly.
This happened with several of the DAW planes, and a few of the SAW planes.

Not sure if DAW and SAW were made for the new sound system......get wrong sounds on
some planes. Also, in the single-mission selection screen, the Fiat CR32 is listed
twice......one sounds like a jet....
I believe this may have to do with the new .snd numbering system.

This new folder system is working excellent. All you have to load in OAW is the .set
file in the C folder. I now have C DAW, C SAW, and C SPAW. (My SPAW is still a test
version.....still awaiting the final release!)
Thanks,
AO

Here is the first fix for SAW.
Ralf had done a 1.28C flight model set plus a number of other files:

http://www.users.on.net/pam_biddell/FSAW1.28V01.exe

Run this self extractor in the the "SAW128CDirSet\SAW" folder and it will add a number of additional files. This is one of the beauties of the new folder system, fixes can be added this way.

Jel

The Cr is in the Me 262 slot isn't it? That is why it has the jet sound.

Hi AO,

sounds like some of the single mission defaults in the savedata folder are not set for the SAW map causing your ctd's, try clearing the savedata folder or copy the one from a previous working SAW set-up. Several of the aircraft are in duplicate slots in SAW to reflect their availability in the period, many of the plane types in the theatre were only present in low numbers so to reflect this in random missions I put replicates of the common aircraft in so you will meet them more often.


cheers,

Try this version of the ModSquad BoB

...same system as DAW and SAW- run the self installer in your 1.28C folder

http://www.users.on.net/pam_biddell/BoB.exe

Gives you a choice of summer or autumn.

I have just downloaded the entire set of Russian Air War zips from Sandbagger's, and made my own RAW installation for 1.28C.
It's fairly crude- the entire works in one folder, accessed from "C RAW" in OAW128
