Well, frankly saying the observing point is much higher than MMS. It makes such "cover" things much easier.

It's been a long time since I've played the EE series, and this looks great to get me back in it again! smile

I've followed the instructions, but the game starts with black screen and stops responding... any ideas?

My one did that as well. I just closed it and tried again and it worked. Which version are you trying to run, the direct sound one of the normal one?

Tried both, same thing. The solution was to set the compatibility to Windows 2000 thumbsup

Anyway to tweak up the A.I. of the fighter jets on both sides?

When I was playing on the Blue Side, 3 of my F-16C Falcons were shot down by a single MI-24, which I think it's impossible since the MI-24 doesn't carry AA missiles.

The F-16C didn't even fire back nor did they detect the MI-24.

When I was playing on the Red Side, 4 of my Fulcrums were shot down by a single A-10 Thunderbolt, which I also think it's impossible since the A-10 can only carry 2 sidewinders.

So how did it shoot down 2 of the Fulcrums assuming both sidewinders hit their targets?


What's in the box? C'mon, what's in the boooox?

I haven't played EECH in a long time, so my questions might not make sense. Did you watch the planes get shot down? If so, are you sure it was missiles that got them? Or was it from an in-game report? Does the game report planes shot on a runway the same way as if in-air? Just curious.


The issue is not p*ssy. The issue is monkey.

With its six-barreled bottle thrower?

It would require dumb MiG drivers and accurate A-10 pilots, but it isn't impossible...



Guided anti-tank missiles can also be used against aerial targets, btw.

In fact, since planes aren't equipped with laser detectors, launching a Hellfire at a plane is a fairly elegant solution to evade chaff and flares.

They were shot down in the air.

Excellent mod, it is truly amazing what you guys managed to do there! Fwiw: I changed the S-8/S-13 missiles in the GWUT to make them laserguided (the russians do use that variant now heavily) and boy I like them! ar15

Google for Ugroza if you want more info...

anyway: Hats off to you guys! Really impressive work!


-gone for good-

How did you do that?

I see the S-18 and S-13 in the GWUT1140 excel file but which column is for laser guided on and off and what number do I change it to?

Thanks!

I used a GWUT editor and compared the GWUT file manually as the 1.15 file has a slightly different file size/format.

As a test I also made the MBT cannons also able to fire against air targets, have to playtest this first before I can recommend it, though. Not sure if it will mess up the gameflow or sth.

I only wished one could change the helo loadouts this way, but it seems this has been disbled by the mod/recompilation team. It was possible to do that with earlier versions of the mod iirc. I am not to keen to hexedit the exe manually... biggrin


edit: one of the editors -> http://home.planet.nl/~ek000114/gotcha/gwut.html

Oh and I also discovered this thread: http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/3597359/GWUT_editing_loadouts.html
