Copy EAW CD (the specified files) to your C drive, root folder or 2nd drive.
run eaw.exe and configure., save a copy of your eaw.ini some other place.

If your on win10 you should be "OK" to play.

Start with the first use help document or maybe "install help doc" and troubleshoot help doc if you need a wrapper program......

Come back here and tell us your progress and anything that might be helpful to guide you further.

Thats what i tried for days before registering here, on Win10 i can get to main menu of EAW, but whether i use nglide or not, or any other graphical engine in the settings the game keeps always crashing at the beginning of starting the game/flight.
When i use Win98 i get that old 71 whatever error which was because of the gpu being to new for the game. I also tried every kind of compatibility settings in win 10. Every time i start the game with quick start or something it keeps crashing to desktop and closing the game..

Do you have a joystick plugged in? or your Flight controls set up?

Try setting the eaw.ini setting Windows Joystick=1

Thats the most recent problem I had without the joystick plugged in. OR setup the controls in the configuration menu screen.

Yeah set up your Flight Controls or do the Windows Joystick=1 in the eaw.ini (open with notepad)

The game will drop out of the flight screen if there's no Flight Controls configured.

Alright that seemed to be the problem, countless hours for nothing, thank you very much...
Would you suggest any newer/ other patches for this game to have more fun, which are not available anymore in this forum ?

Do you also have other tips for the other two games Panzer44 and Panzer Commander ? At one of these games i cannot even install it, because the setup was made for 8bit or something.
Best regards

When you fly a single mission the data is stored, and will be used again for the parameters when you set-up a new single mission in the same plane.
Quick missions also use these files. However, if you have a new set-up and these files have not been created, then choosing a quick mission (which would seem to be the most simple choice), may well result in a CTD.

NP, your welcome.

No real suggestions from me. I hardly play through the game anymore.

Can't really help with the other games, never had them.

Try asking in the SimHQ Land & Armor Combat forums area or use google or duckduckgo or other search. And no offense but please ask other questions elsewhere - not in this 'Sticky thread'.. No need to apologise just an FYI.

For other new people or questions, just a note about general internet forums etiquette: 'Sticky threads' or threads at the top of the forums, are places where useful general information for long term (often many years) viewing is usually posted.
Good forum etiquette is to Not post various questions, remarks, etc. there unless it is specifically marked to do so.
This is because random posts fill the thread and produce many pages. Since most forums split the long threads into pages the last page will usually be the one clicked on or seen by visitors looking for the latest information. If they only see some random posts, questions, remarks they usually miss the important information in the 'Sticky threads'. Which defeats the whole purpose.
Also its considered rude to just barge in and post your questions about another game.


Now I would like to repost.. at least some of.. my valuable long-term information from page 6 of this 'Sticky thread' and hope it can stay here for some time:


..
My zips:
eaw1.28efullversion-3-1-2017.zip size 465 MB gives you a standalone 1.28E - CodeGroup version I most recommend - you won't need any other files.

EAW1.28c-with-OAW128v13 sorry no longer available


If you want a look at the planes skins + information see my page Planes Skins of OAWunified
...


Note if you have a GOG.com version see MrJelly's threads regarding upgrades to those versions or visit the EUROPEAN AIR WAR HELP SITE (EAWHS)

p.s. Actually it would be helpful if the Admin would just 'Lock' this thread since I think the point is made that EAW is still alive! And MrJelly has his own separate EAW 1.60 forum now.
