Which EAW Files Should I Post?

[MarkEAW]

I was wondering which files would be of importance to be on CombatACE EAW download section?

Or if you don't know specifically a file, how about a type or description of some file you want/need?

 

On a related note over at EAWHS:

I have been putting off updating my mediafire account. I'm finding it too difficult to manage quickly. Its a neat setup but I really need 15gigs of FTP space to update the files section on EAWHS properly. :|
I doubt any free service would be available. (I'm not paying for this hobby, more than I have too, its too much work). I've bought backup storage for EAW stuff that I'm working on, and maintain my computer, life and what not.

If you know of a free FTP storage solution, let me know, please.

To be honest, I don't know what I want in EAW. I just play this game because I played it as a kid. Personally, I like full packs, with new theaters, aircraft sets and upgrades.

[MarkEAW]

So you want a modder to have packaged the right files together for you already......

Hmmm, that could be OAW, I "Think" Jel may have released a new OAW package for stock EAWv1.2 in the past 2 years. (In comparison to the old OAW from 2005)

But I don't know if I have it, or where to get it.

Then there's little packages like flight model modifications in a single pack. Skys clouds terrain, etc.

I play these mods. They all are extract and play. I am not familiar with instaling and modding EAW. I dont know what other gamers want, i just say about myself. And sure default EAW is the bess ever among these types of games

[MarkEAW]

I think some of those exe 7z installers for the standalone games are already in a large download put together , here on CombatACE, I think Jel uploaded them, or Erik did.

eh, I see no EAWPRO in your list,....that blows :) You need to read and see about all the changes in it. Its fun to compare from 1.2 to the FXEXE when playing. I jump sometimes from game to game just to see the comparison.
Its worth adding to your collection.

Well about the OAW package, I think FsFOOT had posted a revised package perhaps?? not too sure. I'll have to check my backups, still :)..............

 

 

 

[MarkEAW]

I searched, all I see is the orginal OAW installer (or extracted) files.

I might have over looked the newer OAW, but Jel did update the OAW files more recently than I'm finding on my backups.

Bazillius,

Do you know what the JelFixV2.exe is for?

There was no description for it in the downloads.

Alright, Thanks.

I'm just handling all the files I been taking in and I'm still unclear what too post in the CombatACE DL section.

If any body has a clue, clue me in , thanks.......

I ran JelFixV2.exe and it is the in SimHQ disputed version of EAWPRO which he also tried to incorporate into an OAW version.

Regarding the notorious JelFixV2 file

Wow, it is unfortunate that he released your stuff yet again. Sad sorta :\ Over the years I was around, he released several FXEXE inclusions and what not. He even sent me two large files of your work along time ago before I knew you or the situation regarding the split in efforts. I still have them, but I have not use them in a very long time. 

Regarding files I post.
 I've been updating files and organizing, locally, but mediafire interface slows me down. It seems like more work than using a FTP program.
So I haven't updated the EAWHS Mediafire File Account completely. I make too many changes to the files locally too fast, that its hard to keep track of them all, so I doubt I ever will finish mediafire. There are a few updates I have time to do though.

[MarkEAW]

Regarding files from EAWHS:

I have been adding a lot of file descriptions to my site and some files have been repacked and renamed. I did all this locally and find it much faster if I don't have to keep track of the downloads and changes I make. 

I'll try to upload some of them to mediafire but I can't be bothered with uploading all the skins ive added as the folder structure is slow to browse.

I still not sure If I'll be able to find FTP space or what where it would make more sense to handle the files.

Anyhow moving on.

Is anyone interested in a 1.2 to 1.28 patch with installer? and perhaps a 1.28 to 1.28a to 1.28b patches?
I just recently found them in my file pile, and they are the eaw code development / codegroup downloads.....

Maybe I can upload those files.
But If you want, I can upload those files to CombatACE?

I don't recommend you 1.28 GOG players to patch it up, as the eaw.exe would be over written and loose all GOGs revisions to the exe......

Let me know, I may do it anyhow as others have requested a and b separately in the past.

EDIT:

Well I uploaded them and been waiting for them to be processed.

uploaded the versions mentioned

[MarkEAW]

Still, the files for the EAWv1.28 un-official versions are stuck at CombatACE's processing.

I was impatient and I sent a support ticket. Apparently I should have waited a few more days because of the holiday.

Anyhow you can DL those files now from CombatACE's EAW file section.
