In 140 you selected a theatre and then a planeset. The theatres often had their own "weapons.str", "weapons.dat"and "hrdpoint.dat" files. If not the default ones in "savedata" would be used. This was the major problem in switching to 150. In 150 you select a planeset then a theatre, so the "weapons.dat"and "hrdpoint.dat" files are likely to be completely inappropriate for the selected planeset. So the following work has either been done already, or is currently under way: 1. All "weapons.dat", "weapons.str" and "hrdpoint.dat" files have been removed from the theatres. 2. The "weapons.dat" and "weapons.str" files in "savedata" have been extended to be all-inclusive. More extension may be necessary. 3. The "hrdpoint.dat" file in "savedata" is currently being extended to become all-inclusive. 4. Some loadout and other files have been, or are being, edited to match the all-inclusive files. Ray and I both think that this will be a much better system than 140 It is already a very simple task for players to select their own individual aircraft for a game, and fly EAW without even selecting a a planeset, or to create a new planeset from the ones they have selected.

I revamped the GUI this morning, and I can still add "mouse info" if you think it is needed Level one opening screen: An aircraft set selected: If you select the aircraft the lists of skin folders and FM folders it references can be seen and even edited if you click the "Personal aircraft selection utility" tab. Making an aircraft selection brings up the folder re-naming and information editing possibilities. This may not seem necessary, but if level two users assemble a new set of planes and save them the files go into the first available folder. The name of this folder will be something like "PS24" which is not user friendly, and needs to be re-named. Edit: The "PSMV10.exe" interface is available on the 150 download page

Simply amazing addition to 1.5. From concept to fruition in two days. You know, the Americans used skip bombing attacks in the Pacific and the Germans experimented with the idea after recovering an unexploded Brit bomb from one of the Lancs that got shot down. Just sayin'.
Heck, even paranoids have enemies.

David Shannon strikes again Well not strictly speaking, he did not breach the dam, and he was not flying a FAA Avenger In truth he dropped the first upkeep mine on the Eder, which was eventually breached. In the 1980s I lived in Bridgewater, South Australia a stone's throw from his family residence. I only discovered that years later, so I never met him
