WOV Air & Ground Expansion Pack v. 1.1 - VPAF Add-On

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

This is an add-on package for the "Wings Over Vietnam: Air & Ground Expansion Pack v. 1.1" available at CombatAce. This add-on makes most major aircraft of the Vietnamese People's Air Force (VPAF) flyable with custom third-party cockpits and avionics. It also contains "Red" versions of the three main WOV campaigns, allowing you to fly VPAF MiGs against opposing USAF, USN, & USMC aircraft.

 

This add-on package is designed to be applied over the top of an existing installation of version 2.1 of the Expansion Pack with the latest update package applied. You can download the three main Expansion Pack files here:

Installation

~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

The installation process has two phases: one for all patch levels; a second for the Aug. 2006 patch level. Here's how to apply this update package:

 

1. Ensure that WOV is properly installed and patched to either the 8.30.2006 or 10.20.2008 level.

 

2. Ensure that the Expansion Pack v. 1.1 (Mar. 2010) is installed to your WOV Installation Directory and that the latest update for the Expansion Pack is applied.

 

3. Unpack WOV_AG-XP_VPAF.7z to a safe place on your drive.

 

4. Open the \All_Patch_Levels directory. Drag and drop all the files and folders from within the \To_Install_Dir to your WOV Install Dir, overwriting as prompted.

 

If you are running WOV at the Oct. 2008 patch level, then your installation process is finished. If you are running at the Aug. 2006 patch level, then you have one last step.

 

5. If you are running the Aug. 2006 patch level, then open the \Aug_2006_Patch directory. Drag and drop all the files and folders from within the \To_Install_Dir to your WOV Install Dir, overwriting as prompted.

 

That's it. You should be good to go.
