INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS: Important! This mod is ONLY

intended to be used with Jonesoft's Generic Mod Enabler and should not

be installed unless JSGME has already been installed into your

CFSWW1 Over Flanders Fields game folder!

 

In order to install the main mod and the four "optional" mods,

open the archive and double-click the folder named "HPW Combined FM AI

Weight Mod." Click the "Extract" button and copy the five files to the

MODS folder created inside your CFSWW1 Over Flanders Fields folder when

you installed JSGME into OFF. The files are correctly installed if you

see the five above files plus this readme.txt the next time you start

JSGME. After copying the files to the MODS folder, you can either keep

or move the readme file to any other location on your computer.

 

In order to activate the mod, simply start JSGME and first

confirm that 33Lima's AI Empty Weight Mod has already been activated

(33Lima's mod will already be listed as activated in the JSGME right

window). Next, highlight the HPW Main FM AI Weight Mod and click the top

button. Because this mod will overwrite some of the files in the AI Empty

Weight Mod, JSGME will open a message box warning you that "Enabling this

mod 'may' have adverse effects on your game," and asking if you "Are sure

you wish to enable this mod?" This is normal. Click okay and the mod

will become activated. Later, when you decide to use one of the

"optional" FM mods, JSGME will display the same warning. Again, this is

completely normal and should not result in any harm to your OFF

installation. Later, if you decide to deactivate any of my FM mods or

33Lima's weight mod, simply deactivate the mods in reverse order. Enjoy

the mod and 33Lima's AI Empty Weight Mod!

 

Important note: As in previous versions of my FM mod,

and any other mod which modifies any of OFF's .cfg files, using this

mod will result in the user not being able to see any of the ace

skins, either those already included in the game or that the user has

created on his own or downloaded for use with HITR. Fortunately, a

workaround for this problem has been identified by Panama Red. Basically,

in order to use this mod and also to see all of the ace skins

available in the game, first activate the FM mod and start the game.

Begin your campaign as usual, but instead of flying your mission, click

on end mission as soon as you find yourself on the field. Exit completely

out of the game and then restart your campaign. Then, on the

campaign screen, click "Replay Mission." This will take you back to the

beginning of your mission but with the advantage of allowing you to see

all of the fantastic skins which have been lovingly created by members

of the OBD team and by many others for use with this wonderful simulation

of WWI aerial combat. OBD has already assured us that this problem has

been eliminated in the next version of Over Flanders Fields. Huzzah!

 

DESCRIPTION OF MOD: Thank you for downloading my

newly revised FM update for "Hat in the Ring," the official update

to Over Flanders Fields "Beyond Heaven and Hell," OBD software's

great and historically accurate interpretation of WWI aerial combat,

based on Microsoft's CFS3 game engine. The purpose of this mod is to

make my previously released Allied and German FM mods fully compatible

with 33Lima's AI Empty Weight Mod so that the user can enjoy the

benefits of both mods simultaneously. Prior to the release of this

mod, the user could use either my FM mod or 33Lima's AI mod alone, but

not at the same time.
