I can almost guarantee that's what caused it. Installing an update after a game was already saved. Then trying to reload that save. Sounds like the logical reason.

New update is available. Please inform about any problems you will find. Read carefully about major changes related DDS textures.

Did a clean install of EH and installed eech-allmods-1.16.0RC5 trying to figure out why my AA radar is not working. Now the palm trees are all upside down. Also, Joystick Throttle and cyclic are mixed up (none of these happened with eech-allmods-1.16.0RC4).

CG2015, yes this installer can be used only on clear EECH or for 1.16.0RC5 reinstall

The Punisher, as I said, some old mods became incompatible. wait until they will be updated.
can't say right anything about controls problems - I think nothing was changed since previous release, but I will check later. maybe you messed up with EECH.INI?

Hi Thealx

I haven't touched my ini file (except for flight_model=0 on back RC4, fortunatelly I made a backup of that ini file and controls are working fine after restoring it). I am curious why this didn't happened on RC4 and after uninstalling everything and going back to RC4 and now I still get the inverted palm trees.

Also, why is my Air to Air Radar not working.

why are you installing testing version instead of stable release?

I am not sure I get the question. Anyway, I will try to answer based on my understanding of it: I went back to RC4 because I didn't had the inverted palm trees before. Now, after installing / uninstalling RC5, I still have the inverted palm trees in RC4. Is that what you are referring to? Please let me know.

nope, I meant - it's obvious that this testing version was released for the people, who know a lot about this game. if I'm understood correctly - you didn't play EECH for a long time, so it will be wise to start from 1.15.0 or 1.15.2.

Tried that, didn't worked for me. As soon as I click OK to start flying, it stops working. So far I am familiarizing with 1.16 and liking it. My only remaining issues (so far) are the AA Radar and now the inverted palm trees (other trees are fine), plus a little bit controlling the helo as my joystick (old MS Sidewinder) feels "too loose" but I solved that with the help of simFB, now is just practice.

You have problem with lb1 lb2, now with eech. You have win 10 and I think this is your problem, or you have not properly installed windows or drivers.All versions eech working good for me, air radar work good.
Win 10 is generally #%&*$# and even for free I would not have touched.

okay, so let's start from the beginning.

about radar stuff. what manual_laser/radar value you have in EECH.INI?
do you know that there are two scan modes. you can change between them pressing Shift+(Num)/. is something happens, when you press (maybe even push) (Num)/ button?

>>change between them pressing Shift+(Num)/.

Works fine in Ground mode, doesn't works on AA mode.

>>is something happens, when you press (maybe even push) (Num)/ button?

Nope. Get nothing. Radar is set to All targets, but nothing happens, no scan bar and no targets.

>>what manual_laser/radar value you have in EECH.INI?

I am trying to understand the ini file. If you tell me the names of the variables, I can look at them.

I don't have problems with LB1...I can play it Win95 mode (only have problems in DosBox with the game not recognizing the mounted images). But the graphs are so outdated, I can barely distinguish the objects.

I have problems in LB2 after finishing a mission. This was solved in the past with the MS Compatibility ToolKit but it no longer works in Win10.

I can play newer games fine, from DCS flight sims, to the latest Ghost Recon or CODs (or even the old ones). Also some old games like Wing Commander series, Jedi Knight series, Delta Force series, etc, just have problems with older games.

manual_laser/radar - is a string name, it works both for ground and air radar but you can just ensure that it's disabled (set to 0)
maybe Home button can't be recognized by game properly (similar problems happens on some notebooks), try to apply it somehow to any of your flightstick button.

Thanks Thealx. manual_laser/radar is set to "0" (manual_laser/radar=0 ). Will try to map it to a joystick button. Looking at the ini file to see if I can get it right.

Thanks a lot XIII! Tried WinXP and Admin but in my frustration (have installed and uninstall different versions - 1.15, 1.16RC4, 1.16RC5 - around 7 or 8 times today trying to see which version would work better) forgot to try them together at the same time. I just did and AA Radar now works!

Now, as I understand, I just have to wait for a new version of the trees to fix the inverted palm trees....? I'll just try to fly a terrain that doesn't have those for now.

You can fly with rotated trees, it does not affect the game.
It's just reversed texture.
Let's hope that Soczkien will release the correct versions.
