No! There is an entire thread here named " Patch for owners of the GoG release of EAW". Use the link and the information in the first post

128 doesn't allow higher flight screen resolutions, However it may have the 1024x768 flight screen adjustment, which makes it wider viewing, the pilot seat is further back than in the official EAWv1.2. The EAWv1.28-GoG eaw.exe has improvements for proper directdraw support. Which is why Direct3D is superior on those GoG released exe's.
Unfortunately you have the reduced hit bubble and collision is off. However other improvements like better 16 bit sound is in place. You just have to read more.
Misinformation I have both the Codegroup's 1.28 and the GoG version running with my "eaw.ini" set at 1920 x 1080. I just did a screenie test with the Codegroup's 1.28. The max screenie size had not been adjusted in 1.28 so there are coloured vertical lines on the right hand side. However the size of the picture in 1920 x 1080

You wrote this: 128 doesn't allow higher flight screen resolutions While I am posting I will add this screenie: The dxwnd FPS overlay shows 80, but the FPS shown by the exe is only 28. I do not trust the dxwnd FPS value at all

The vertical lines in the screenie occur because the maximum size read for a screenie is set in the exe. In later versions I changed the maximum size that is read, and fixed the problem So what did you mean when you wrote 128 doesn't allow higher flight screen resolutions ????

I know that already. Try answering the question that I asked. So what did you mean when you wrote 128 doesn't allow higher flight screen resolutions

You eat your eggs this morning yet, or lunch? There is no higher res in 128 than there is in 12. EDIT: I'm not trying to elude your question, I'm trying to answer it clearly for you.
