European Air War - The Gen

Just a quick update: The Nieuport 11,12, 17 and 28 are compete. The Sopwith Pup, Camel, Dolphin and 1 1/2 Strutter are complete. The RE-8 is done. The DH-2 is done. The Se5a is done. The Morane N and the Breguet 14 are driving me crazy. I think I'm going to have to convert them to my "empty F&q...

Yea, it is a lot of trouble. However, once I get a handle on fixing a model, it's fairly straightforward applying the same fixes to other models by the same builder. For instance, the Nieuport 11/12/17 model and the Nieuport 24/27/27 models are about 80-90% the same because they come from the same m...

I haven't looked at the FM's but from my experience with some of the pre-WW 2 biplanes I'm pretty sure I can make them work.

What I left out of my post was the fact that even with my attention to detail, these models aren't perfect. Due to their extreme complexity (as far as 3dz modeling goes), I can only get about 95% R/S compliance, with the few remaining issues only being detectable from oblique angles. I'm fine with t...

I just wanted to give an update on the project. I started with the Nieuport model which can be used for everything from the 11, 12, 16 and 17. Now, I'm not trying to be critical here. I do think these are well done in the sense that the proportions are good except for the landing gear being too wide...

Thanks for the "what if" information. You're new to the forum so you probably don't know the "what-if" aircraft are my specialty. When you get a chance, take a look at the models in the "ALT" folder of the 1.6 package. In there you will find hundreds of interesting odd ...

That helps, thanks.

I'm not too familiar with squadron designations for the WW 1 aircraft and I'd like to avoid screening through tons of photos and such to find out hope they're set up. So I'm was hoping one of you could chip in on this project by giving my some guidance. As an example: On the Nieuport 11 I'm working ...

Funny, yesterday I was thinking about attaching rockets to the struts on some of the planes for killing these things.

Ok, I'll try putting the map files in the main folder. So far, I've found some interesting things on these models. As expected most of them have major R/S issues but all fixable. What surprised me is that the SE5 is almost perfect with a very minor R/S issue with the landing gear. Someone knew what ...

Ok I have the two plain white targ map files as shown but while they show up in the root folder of TWFTheater but they don't show up in the game. Wrong resolution or wrong folder are the only two things I can thing of. Any suggestions? PS - Good news is the game works with some of the WW1 models. Lo...

I'll take those engine and gun sounds, please.

Also, in the new D/L's I still don't see a new map. I've forgotten what the file name is for that particular screen.

Not there yet but quite a bit of progress. I have the planes skins and FM's sorted by Allied / Axis so they fit in the standard protocol. I can run the game with either "WW1 with ETO terrain" or "WW1 with matching terrain". Not sure what the difference is because the terrain look...

I have a separate WW1 download which Jelly made, failing which I can make one from the 1.6 WW1 setup I have. That would be great. I think there are other WW1 planes around - see Laurent Vogel's posts on the EAW Facebook page. If you're going to do this might be worth trying to get him involved. I'l...
