I have downloaded retail patches P1,P2,P3 and the 092006 patch.
Do I need to install all of them in sequence?
I was using oct patch and don´t remember the old patch sequence.

No. Here's what you do. It's all included right there in the CD.

1- WOV...a separate installation if you want to keep playing the game non-YAP also.
2- Patch1.exe
3- Patch2.exe
4- YAPv2.exe

Then joystick set up.
Then sit down and relax.
Then read the DIRECTIONS.
Then fly the practice missions.
Then say goodbye, you are going to war.

Okay, I'm really confused!

I've tried twice installing the YAP2 mod to my up to date Thirdwire patched version (Oct.08) of W.O.V. game but, it just crashes to desktop. What am I doing wrong?

Just a blanket reminder, DO NOT patch YAP2 to the Sept or Oct 08 patch or beyond.

With Vista, install to a folder other than program files. Make a folder on your desktop, name it whatever you wish, install and run the game from there. You'll get around Vista asking you "do you really want to do this" all the time.

I'm sorry to post here, don't really want to mess up this thread but...

YAP site is surely well done but I'm a bit fuzzy on what I find when I buy.

And as a side note the site seems down now. All I get when browsing the link is random commercial crap totally unrelated.

Can we be a bit more specific, as to what that may be? Skins, objects, deck clutter, ground clutter??

You dont see any crew on deck, just planes and nothing else.

Im going from memory that when I landed on a carrier I didnt see any crew on deck....I havent flown Yap2 for a while, I`ll get it re-installed (due to a PC format ) and let you know in due course.

A great Sim btw I really enjoyed the atmosphere of the real historical missions.

Campaigns and Instant Action are not supported by YAP objects (almost none) in WOV campaigns. Your carriers that are appearing are stock WOV generated.

YAP carriers are in YAP missions.
