In your gunsight?
It has literally been 8 years since I last had a look at how you guys are doing.

Big hello especially to

Knegel (if he is still active)
and Mr Jelly


but the rest I simply do not remember the Names. So don't feel excluded.
Good to see so many people still active and keeping one of my favourite games alive. Due to the time zone difference I never found you guys active on Gameranger (?), so EAW kind of drifted to the back of the queue for me. But I still have 1.0 sitting on my hard drive backed up.

What would I need to get up to date?
Any very fiddly bits I need to be aware of with the add on campaigns? My favourite was the one with the GO 105 twin engine jet bomber. Done by Moggy I think?
What is the website for everything nowadays? I do not remember the address of the old one anyway.

I am currently running a TM Warthog and TrackIR 5. on a 3440 x 1400 monitor. What is the res of EAW nowadays?
If I can get that to work that might be an awesome experience.
Anyone got any experience running the TrackIR 5 with this?

Thank you all, and stay well !

PS: Running Windows 10. What do I need to watch out for and is an install possible?

Hi Githyanki.

I am running Windows 10

Online we are using the 160 special and the link is in my signature.

https://www.mediafire.com/#6r2p8s77dltsb

You need to download and run "160SpecialPublicRelease.exe" a 7-zip self installer which will give you a "160SpecialGR" folder which is a complete working installation.
You might need your own eaw.ini file.
Once it is working for yo download the "160SpecialUpdate20March.exe" exe and run it in the "160SpecialGR" folder. Some things will be added, some files will be replaced with better versions.

Cheers

wink Jel
