I thank AO for his new sound package for this scenario. Would only add that Iraq is a work (very long) in progress. There is a download with which players can sample the scenario. As AO found, the package had a few glitches, so asap I will prepare a new beta.

Hi Guys,
I didn't really pay any attention to the glitches.....
Three things really intrigue me about this scenario.
One, it is always fresh to fly planes you are not use to,
and see different cockpits, etc.
Two, the work that was put into this to have new voice comms
was like being in a new sim. Just to hear the new voices reply
to a 'regroup' was excellent! Bandit calls and attack calls
was very very immersive!
Three, and although I didn't manage to show it in the video,
I love the terrain, and the extra work Moggy put into the 'order'
of objects. Instead of buildings being helter skelter, they are
organized, like streets, and tree-lined......with some very unique
airfields.
Personally, I can't wait for this to be completed. But I do understand
the complications involved.
Also, the RS problems with planes (and possibly objects) that Col. is
talking about in another thread, is gonna create alot of work for 3Dz'ers.
Unfortunately for me, my system for EAW runs faster in glide....but creates
a ton of problems with alot of plane skins and terrains.
Thanks,
AO

Thanks AO. I am glad you enjoyed scooting around in the Middle East. Did you find the hideout of the terrorists --- oooops - illegal combatants? There may have been camels involved.

Credits also to those who made the planes and Col G who made the terrain tiles. Lots of people have done various things for this scenario over the past few years.

The "British and Commonwealth" voices are made from a variety of the voice packs I had in store here. Notably the "fruity language" files the organiser of which escapes me at the moment but will post later.

I do have the files for a Arabic language speech pack for the Iraqi side which were recorded by ShadowDragon, and I will get round to finalising that.

I am still short of a couple of plane models (Vickers Valentia, Ju90, Bombay) and now it looks distressingly as though Col G's Airspeed Oxford has been lost in a hard disk crash frown frown frown

This is a project loooonnnnggg in the making and there still is much to do. But I am picking up bits and peices required, and it will trundle on toward completion ... sometime ... smile

This is a particularly badly recorded campaign, and I am picking up new bits of information all the time. Only today for example have I found that the Iraqi airforce actually bombed Amman, the capital of the British Transjordan Protectorate (presumably in response the Jordan Arab Legion being part of the Commonwealth ground forces in Iraq). I'll have to add that to the mission files!

My Iraq page is here: http://mogggy.org/iraq/iraq.htm but the downloads there are pre-EAW128E. I'll put a 128E compatible beta package together soon.

No, he still has it. He just hasn't gotten around to painting it. However, I will speak to him and remind him to do it. dizzy
