      Like the title says this mod provides 37mm AAA guns to First Eagles Exp. Pack 1. This just the guns themselves along with a custom tracer and gun sound. You will have to place the guns on the map yourself.
       
      ..................................................................................................................................................................................
       
      Contents:
       
      37mm Sockelflak...Complete new model and texture provided by P10ppy
       
      37mm Hotchkiss Revolving Cannon...reportedly common balloon defense gun.

    2. Air & ground counters for FE

      This mod provides you with a batch of colorful, reduced-size, more immersive counters, devoted to each of the nationalities that could be present in First Eagles, including possible new theaters. Besides having a more attractive map and less confused stacks, you can also find more easily the units you're after. As a rule, the counters with rectangular national flags and division device show the ground units, those with national ensigns and warships shapes the naval units, while the counters with roundels concern the air units.
       
      This pack may seem redundant after Stephen1918's. However, I was preparing these counters since long as part of a major upgrade for my former Medals Pack for FE. As this work still needs time, I provide the counters here in a separate delivery: they won't be included any more in the new Medals Pack. My counters are also different from Stephen's in two regards, in continuity with my former various counters packs for SF1: first, I kept loyal to the smaller 24x24 size for FE1, enjoyable on large-scale maps with crowded stacks; and second, I kept on using the colors of national uniforms and usual aircraft skins as my counters' background colors, rather than generic colors by sides, thus favoring immersion over immediate readibility. This makes my pack an alternative rather than a redundancy: the choice is still yours.

      Of course, this mod provides all of the counters needed for the nations present in First Eagles' campaigns on the Western Front, and also in the add-ons available at Combatace giving access to the Italian and Eastern Fronts. Some variant counters have been included, for aesthetic purpose only, for example several German air counters to reflect the changes in German markings and development of camo skins.

      Ottoman counters have been added for operations on the Palestine map, Romanian counters considering a possible extension of the Eastern Front, Bulgarian, Serbian and Greek counters for a possible development of a Balkan Front. Soviet and Polish counters have been added in the case of scenarios about the Russian Civil War or the Soviet-Polish War.

      Ground counters have been included for units of the British Empire present on various fronts ( Australia, Canada, India and New Zealand ); and there are even ground counters for “anecdotal” units which once served on the Western Front, such as the two Portuguese divisions decimated during Operation Georgette ( April 1918 ), or the Polish and Czech Legions wearing French blue uniforms engaged during the last offensives in Champagne. However, safe for the Australians and Poles, none of these nations is listed in the game's Nations file (FirstEagles/Flight folder). This can be remedied by small tricks explained in the ReadMe file.

      Finally, naval counters have even been included for FE2 air-sea scenarios or campaigns taking place in the North Sea, or elsewhere yet to come ( Adriatic, Baltic, Dardanelles... ).

      A small folder has been added to fix a problem in my former Medals Pack for FE, that prevented the counters of the Royal Naval Air Service ( a new Nation created especially for that mod ) to appear on the Planning Map. It will be fully solved in a later upgrade for that mod, yet to come.

    5. Alternative bullet hit sound for FE

      Here's an alternative bullet hit sound for FE. This is something I'm still working on, but I wanted a more frightening sound when you get jumped and bullets start hitting stuff. It's debatable what you'd hear over an engine and the rush of the wind, but try it and see if you like it. Make a back up of your original 'Dirt Hit' sound first of course, then you can change it back if you don't like this one. Feel free to mess around with this or upload it anywhere you like. Have fun. - Al 'Chock' Bradbury

    10. Breaking part sound for FE

      Addon Breaking Sound by ShrikeHawk
       
      My intent here was to create a very distinctive ww1 sound for
      breaking aircraft parts. I wanted to hear a wood-crunching,
      canvas-ripping, "uh-oh!" kind of sound to accompany a part
      breaking my own (or better yet, the other guy's) aircraft.

    11. Breaking part sound for FE v2

      This is an update to my previous sound. It begins with an explosion sound
      and empahasizes the cracking of wood more. I like this one better.
       
      This is only a replacement for the previous sound. If you need the .ini
      files to install it, please download the original.
       
      Have fun!

    16. FE Sounds V.2 (All new)

      FE Sounds V.2 (Revised 8 March 09)
       
      EDIT 8/3/09:
      Some people were experiencing problems with some of these samples, so I've made some changes to the package. The "Read Me" will explain...
       
       
      Aside from using authentic sound samples, in my opinion, the next most important aspect of decent sound within a game is balance. I therefore paid particular attention to this when editing these files. As an example, check out the "WindLoop" sound, just audible above the noise of the engine.
       
      New sounds included:
       
      "PropLoop"
      "Lerhone"
      "RotaryEngine"
      "Vickers"
      "Lewis"
      "Spandau"
      "Parabellum"
      "WindLoop"
      "Tiretouch"
      "Dirthit"
       
      Please note:
      The game's default volume for bullet hits on AI planes will be heard at the same volume level as hits to the players plane, which is obviously unrealistic. So to rectify this, extract, then open the "SOUNDLIST.INI" file from the "FlightData.cat". Scroll down to "DirtHit", and change the "MaxDist=" line to: MaxDist=010.000000.
       
      Disclaimer:
      I just want to let it be known that these files have been tucked away on my PC for three years or more, and therefore I can't remember where they originated from. Although I've enhanced and edited these samples to the point where they bear little or no relation to the originals, if anyone recognises one of them as being theirs and then take exception to their use, then please PM me and I'll be happy to delete that file from the package.
       
      EDIT 2/3/09:
      Sorry, forgot to mention...Just as a guide:
      I use "Lerhone" for all the early 1915-16 rotary engine aircraft: DH2, Pup, Nieuports, Eindekker's, etc. It could also be used for the Fokker Dr.I and 110hp Sopwith Camel.
      Use "RotaryEngine" for the Sopwith Triplane, 130 & 150hp Camels and all other late war (mid 1917-1918) rotary powered planes.
       
       
      I hope you like at least a few of 'em

    17. FE WW1-Action Soundtrack

      If you're like me, you probably found yourself turning the original FE music volume to OFF within minutes of installing the game and encountering each screen.
       
      So, I've scoured for some replacement music to increase those minutes to possibly hours before you ditch the music!
       
      Here are some of the more intense classical music I could find (from varied composers) to appropriately fit the mood of each screen, attempting to give FE more "atmosphere". Some screens will have a determined action feel and others with a sense of glory/duty/achievement - at least that's what's intended!
       
      I've only slightly edited each tune so it runs smoother and I reduced the bit rate to shrink them down to size. However, nothing's perfect.
       
      By the way, the composers I emailed and managed to get in touch with were really great about allowing me to use their music files for what will hopefully be your benefit. They've done a terrific job.
       
       
      See/hear what you think of it... hopefully, it will put you in a flying mood!
       
       
      Cheers for browsing & thank God for gaming composers!

      Updated

    24. FESounds

      Updated 19/4/08.
      I've now included a louder "bullet hit" sound. Designed to make you jump when your plane gets hit!
       
      EDIT 30/4/08: It's taken a while for me to work this out, but initially I didn't realise that the bullet hit sound was as loud on the AI planes as on the players...Even from long distance. Not very realistic...There's no way you'd hear hits on the target plane above your engine noise. So, to rectify this, extract, then open the "SOUNDLIST.INI" file from the "FlightData.cat", scroll down to "DirtHit", and change the "MaxDist=" line to: MaxDist=030.000000 or even 025.000000.
      Job Done!
       
       
      The player engine sound in FE is not loud enough IMO. The AI flyby sound easily drowns it out, so here's a louder version which to my ears sounds a lot better.
      I've also included louder and better machine gun sounds which I think balance nicely with the new engine and ambient sounds.
      There are various ways to use them, but the way I do it is to rename the original file, eg to Proploop2 or Vickersorig, or whatever suits you, then drop the new files into your Sounds folder and you're good to go...
      I think it's an improvement, I hope you do too!
       
      Bucky.
