Here's a few videos I have watched on EAW:
One of them mentions my install instructions, which was a surprise, these are by "damsonn".
I think in all of his videos he is using v1.2 on a Win10 64bit system in 3dfxGlide Mode, running nGlide Wrapper at double the res of the EAW standard game , which is defaulted at (640x480).
Note: NGlide cleaning upscales the graphics and cockpit dials, and everything else. (Other wrappers do this too, I just don't remember which ones).
European Air War v1.2 (stock version) running on Windows 10 64-bit - YouTube

BTW I didn't embed the videos as it looked too big, I prefer videos viewed at there home sites anyhow.

View File (Early) Code Group Patches EAWv1.20to1.28to1.28ato1.28b
This is an early set of the un-official v1.28 and the two upgrades.
*Important Information:
If you have the GOG versions, 1.2 or 1.28, then these upgrades would over write the GOG made eaw.exe revisions.
It effectively takes away the GOG patch. It 's your choice if you wish to do this.

eaw.ini file;
Before installing, remove/delete your v1.2 eaw.ini file from the game folder to allow the new un-official version to make its own ini file with extend functions.
From a fresh install;
Have a clean "install" of the official MicroProse v1.20 game.
Install the first patch into that folder, the 'EAW12' game folder, allowing some existing files to be overwritten.
Then extract each patch there after into the same folder, overwriting some of the files each time.

View File EAW Code-Group Standalone
Each one of these files can be downloaded separately. You do not need to download the entire large archive.
(These packs where originally uploaded and posted by Jel back in 2019 I think.)
#1. EAW126.exe:
Gives you a 1.26E folder with no addons.
The 1.2-E exe is effectively a 1.2 exe with a no CD crack and some other modifications which I can no longer remember.
#2. EAW12X-126E.exe:
Gives you what is effectively a 1.26E folder with OAW.
OAW only has the two "E-" folders available so the user can pick either the 1.26E exe or the 1.2X exe from the code group with the 7217 fix
The default ETO theatre is used.
#3. 128eFAW2016.exe:
Gives you a stand-alone folder with the 2016 version of Finnish Air War.
It includes the FAW manager.
The EAW exe used is a 1.28e version, dated the 27th November 2016, which was compiled by the code group.
#4. EAW129 July2016:
Gives you a stand-alone UAW1.29 installation
It has the old and new map versions of the 1.29 exe, and 9 different theatres.
BoB, DAW, ETO with planesets, Malta, Ray's 2015 ETO, SWOTL, SPAW, SAW, ETO Trains and barges.
The "DSP128-9.exe" is provided as the file-manager.
There is a file in the LongDirSets folder named "Mediterranean Air War (Malta and North Africa)" which should have been removed as it causes a CTD when selected. DAW and Malta are there in any case.
However,DAW has the original dodgy planeset with some aircraft having the wrong nationality. The Malta theatre is just about the same, but has a more realistic planeset.
#5. 1.28c_JellyPack.exe:
Installs 1.28c with the DirSetExeManagerV5. filemanager.
This enables you to select one of three versions of the eaw.exe, and eight theatres in addition to the default 1.28C ETO theatre which had the Allied Carrier.
The theatres are DAW, KAW, Malta, Russia-Germany (winter), SWOTL, SPAW, SPAW45 and SAW.
#6. 129EAW640x480.exe:
This installs the special version of the 1.29 old map exe which uses 640x480 screens.
It has a filemanager and a number of experimental WIP theatres that Moggy was working on. These were added to test the exe, but some are of little use as they are incomplete
There is also the 1.28c version of VBH's Pacific Tide III.
This version of the 1.29 exe was made for modders who want to re-vamp old theatres and use the 640x480 screens, but allowing the additional features of UAW1.29 to be used if required.
#7. AcesOverEurope129.exe:
This is Emil's old add-on that Modred updated and Jel repacked it into this form.
Possible issues:
You may need the VB runtime files for the filemanagers and OAW.
Let me know if there are any problems
