i tried EAW some time ago at ~d10 planes would become sticks, and unspottable against the ground. would there be a patch to make that better, maybe?
Don't read this (Planes looking like sticks at distance) Yep. There is a patch that (I think) triples the distance at which planes are rendered in 3d. The reason why they turn to sticks is because EAW is a MASSIVE AIR BATTLE GAME with a SHITLOAD of 3d planes to manage - up to 256 of them. SO the engine, being coded a few years back, made allowances for the massive processing needed just to render nice looking little planes. The patch will bring that up to date AND allow any resolution you monitor/video card can handle (which makes for a pretty whicked looking wide angle view at the higher resolutions. Another patch allows the use of over 350 different aircraft. Another patch allows neater looking special affects. etc. etc. I think it is the best ww2 air battle (yes, battle, not combat, BATTLE) sim made. If you ever feel like trying it online, give me a holler. No, I won't shoot you down five times in a row. Unlike some "sims" I could name, you ain't going to be pulling crap like that off in EAW. The sky is pretty big and you are pretty tiny. Escort those bombers and don't be a hero! I love EAW. There are NO empty flight controls keys on my keyboard. You name it, it is there. It is the Falcon4 of ww2 sims. And your airplane will sentence you to death if you pull much of the shit off people get away with in Warbirds. Warbirds, crank that stick and you snap roll. EAW, crank on that stick and hear the sound of you main spar snapping and shit filling your (virtual)pants.
Talk about coincidents I was in a local software shop today, and they had 2 copies of WW2 Fighters sitting on a markdown table....$15 each....nearly bought one, but thought it would be not as much fun as WBFH. Was I wrong? May have been a different game....was made by Microprose. Regards, Oz
I love EAW but I also use WWII Fighters wich is, in my opinion, better than EAW. Don't you think so ? Try to install the latest flight model addon (ver. 5) and give it a try ... BTW, I don't know if it works in Win2000 but I have WinXP and I must launch it using Win98 or WinME emulation.
What ??? IMHO WWII Fighters was one from the best online games. For this game i began development at HyperLobby that today supporting some good flight simulators and other games No one from todays games offering for me fun that old good WWII Fighters. But that game is Over. Both online and offline ...
Hyper why don't you give a try to the Ardenne '44 online Campaign ? BTW don't get me wrong ... FH it's without doubt better than it.
Anyone know where i can get me EAW?? Heard ppl saying it's a good sim ...thnx in advance! cd-image f.ex?
Hmmm, yes I've played that one... well as a matter of fact I got it through a friend of mine... and I found it rather disapointing... I played WWII fighters some time and it's an ok game... but Jane's Attack Sq... it's not worth the name Jane's IMO (such as in Jane's F-15 and Jane's F/A-18 'n Longbow etc, not in IAF or USAF ) greetze, Zembla
