I had problems with RAW using 1.2X exes. It is a flawed gem. The Russian front is one of the last neglected areas to explore. Maybe someone should mention it to Ray and the Mod Squad.

It was strange attacking B17s and B24s in psuedo Russian markings.

Na, let's put Andy, king of campaign makers, on it.

Von Oben may know more, I think that he was involved in some ways. Maybe he could lend us some of the Russian skins from FAW?

Yes, i hope SPAW will be realesed soon, cant wait :P
But some old campaigns are great too.I dont know how many work must be done to bring them
to the 128c level. DAW is great too,but needs newer (hr) skins the rest runs fine ( test going on)
Raw causes to many ctd`s, but the skins and scenario are nice.
btw...who is andy and what campaings did he make?

btw, every scenario folder own its own "savedata" folder, as such there is no need to delete MSN files anymore.

CTD´s in the single mission plane selection might happen due to not compatible general plane settings(year, nation, guns), this need to get adjusted. For now i dont had one in RAW, but i didnt tested all planes. Most difficult always was the US and brit planes regarding CDT´s in the single mission selection screen.

Hi everybody,

Installation report :

1) SAW :
========
I installed the main install and the patch. I managed to launch the game but not to fly anything (CTD) as it seemed that the current install lacks some ground targets skin files ("missing file" message).

the files that are missing :

DPOS1Ds.TPC
GRND18Ds.TPC
GRND59Ds.TPC
GRND60Ds.TPC
GRND61Ds.TPC
GRND62Ds.TPC
GRND65Ds.TPC

to fix that I opened my previous standard 1.2 SAW installation and found that these files were NOT included in the original package. In fact, it seems that there is a naming error :

DPOS1s.TPC (original) -> DPOS1Ds.TPC (1.28c)
GRND18s.TPC (original) -> GRND18Ds.TPC (1.28c)
GRND59s.TPC (original) -> GRND59Ds.TPC (1.28c)
GRND60s.TPC (original) -> GRND60Ds.TPC (1.28c)
GRND61s.TPC (original) -> GRND61Ds.TPC (1.28c)
GRND62s.TPC (original) -> GRND62Ds.TPC (1.28c)
GRND65s.TPC (original) -> GRND65Ds.TPC (1.28c)

So I copied the original SAW files and renamed them for the 1.28c install and then I dropped them in the SAW folder of the 1.28c install.

It worked - Now I am able to fly my favourite Chato.

2) DAW :
========

Well there the game launch, but then when I try to fly, it crashes without any "missing file" or "error code" information.

No explanation found yet

Best regards

Lolo

From the second post in this thread:



That is because of some missing files.

Jel

Thanks for the answer - Completly miss this requirement. RTFM !

Best regards

Lolo

Hi Lolo,

not all planes will CTD in DAW, its a planes.dat related problem.
Normaly only some Allied planes will CTD cause the default DAW planes.dat need other settings.

Already had a look, will offer a updated files asap.
