Target and base selection:




There is still a lot to do, but I have added significant targets and bases, and the game is playable with the reduced Flying Tigers planeset.
The tile map needs fixing mainly by replacing tiles that meet the ocean but are not coastal tiles, and there is no height map- I am using the flat map for the moment.
The geographical positions of some targets and bases in China are incorrect, otherwise they would be the wrong side of "the wall" or even off screen at the right hand edge.
There is a "EAW_RRD.DAT" file to allow mixed interdictions with true rail lines and sea convoy invisible tracks in both allied and axis territory.
I have disabled sea convoy interdictions and do not propose to make a "convoys.dat" file This is because just about all of the bases and targets are in the fourth quarter of the map as you read across.

Coastal tiles are now fixed, and I have a few screens smile

There is a BurmaPatch.exe 7 zip in the 150 folder at MediaFire.

This is a WIP, but it will give people chance to try it and give some feedback smile

There is a BurmaPatchMP.exe 7-zip

I have modified the target set, some "plane.dat" files, and added the up-to-date multiplayer utilities.
MP is much easier for this theatre now:




Even if you do not fly online it is worthwhile installing this patch because of the improvement to the target set, and the FM files. It needs to be installed after the first Burma patch which was uploaded yesterday. Run them both in the "UAW150V3 " folder

I just modified the two sea convoys to use the SPAW Tmods:
