I recently updated my MoBo and Video Card to run High End Steam games. I recently recovered ROF from my backup but lost the original PWCG GUI that was working successfully on my old box hardware. I have taken several days studying all the Forums on (Rise of Flight United, IL-2 Stormavik, SimHQ, CombatACE, Rise of Flight, and PWCampaignManager) for articles about installing PWCG. And following these instructions that I learned, I successfully recovered the originally installed PWCG version 1.037 and got PWCG option button restored on the ROF main screen and successfully started PWCG version 1.0 and flown a career.

I discovered that Pat Wilson has updated PWCG through several iteration versions that I have downloaded from a variety of Web Sites. PWCGRoF 3.3.2, PWCGFC 12.3.1, and PWCG 16.3.1 for PSGME among others as a result of advanced development and bug fixes.

No where have I found a forum article that describes how, step by step, to upgrade my ROF and Rise of Flight United games to the newer PWCG manager that Pat Wilson has built. I have studied the file and directory structures of both games (Rise of Flight and Rise of Flight 2.0) and recognized common files and directories in both. But I have no clue how to replace the necessary files to update the games to a newer PWCG.

Can someone point me to a forum article with the complete set of upgrade instructions to convert over (remove, add or replace files) in my ROF games to run a newer version of PWCG?

I will answer over on the RoF forum as:
- We see you posted there as well
- Nobody posts on this sim here at SimHQ.
