Argentinian Dagger, hunting for british tanks. (Rio de la Plata terrain WIP)

My original plan was to release a simple version of the Rio de la Plata terrain for X-Mas. But i'm still debugging the files. Mostly it are parked aircrafts, which appear, where they are not should be. I hope i can finish it till end of the week. The scenario so far is: 1982. After the argentinan attack on the Falkland islands the Royal Navy is striking back, with an invasion of Argentina. Beachheads were formed and the Argentinian Army is trying to push the British out of the land. For the RoyalNavy and the allied Brazilians you can fly: SWEEP,CAP,ESCORT,INTERCEPT,STRIKE,SEAD,ANTI_SHIP,RECON,CAS,Armed_Recon For the Argentinians you can fly: SWEEP,CAP,ESCORT,INTERCEPT,STRIKE,SEAD,ANTI_SHIP,CAS Since british and argentinian carrier groups are in the area STRIKE missions are always flown against the enemy carrier. Dagger over the Pampa, hunting for british tanks.

Take off from Buenos Aires Airport.

Any news? Hope it´s alive...

I used some of GKABS civilan airport buildings, some of my usual runway and taxiway files and the stock airfield4 to create Buenos Aires Airport

The EAW Launchpad group and I hope everyone will still enjoy these festive days, in spite of the looming darkness in some parts of the world. Fortunately one doesn't have to be of a certain belief for that in our part of the world, or stay in hiding. Stay healthy and safe and make the best of it! VonBeerhofen

AdA Mirage 2000C circa 1987

I've used some new and old info to complete this new page on my web site. Its a performance record. Of my test of EAW. I haven't recorded anything for v1.2 as it does not have a Frames counter, so I'll have to use an nvidia program to give me results overall. I have used the un official versions,. I use v1.28 a lot, both GoG(w/wrapper) and without a Wrapper, both in DX3D mode. Here's most of my tests currently: https://eaw.neocities.org/performance.html Anyhow if your interested in posting your results I'd be glad to see them. I'm going to ask them to be for a certain version of EAW and one resolution, as this is best to get everyone's results. (see Help Doc)

. "A Story for the Season" 1916: Christmas Eve at the Front. The War has dragged itself along on its steely, mud-caked claws for over two years, and the end seems no closer now than when it all began. At an RFC aerodrome not ten miles from the first line trenches, a group of airmen sit through the morning’s briefing, and prepare themselves for the day’s work. They are nearly all young men, at least in years. But with war comes age beyond a calendar’s mark, and one would find that each man is far older than first appearance would tell if a moment were taken to look into his eyes. As the meeting breaks the jovial banter can be heard amongst the group: the good-natured ribbing and warnings, the verbal jousting, the camaraderie and the closeness that bonds souls together in such tenuous and temporary times. Across the mud at a German aerodrome, a similar scene is being played out. The Jagdstaffel pilots there are also preparing themselves for the task at hand. To look at them, you might imagine they were schoolmates of their British counterparts, rather than enemies soon to be locked in mortal combat. For they too laugh and joke, and share that same bond. And they too are of the "old young". The hour is at hand. On each side the signal is given and the small, fast scout planes skim along the cold, icy ground, and one by one lift into a winter sky as grey as the earth below. They form up, and after climbing to their prescribed altitudes, they head towards No Man’s Land and on to do their best; for King and Country; für Kaiser und Vaterland. They meet, and there is the initial gun pass as each sizes up the other. A few moments later and the aerial battle begins in earnest. To those in the fight it is a mind-numbing blur of action that runs in both accelerated and slow motion simultaneously. A split second given to pull the trigger as a plane zips across the sights: an eternity spent to try and twist out of the path of the bullets. An entire lifetime won or lost in less than an eye blink. To those on the ground it appears as a graceful ballet of the sky, the canvas-feathered birds turning and rolling and climbing and diving. But it is a dance to the death more often than not, and it will end when one or more has fallen. And one has fallen. The long, slow, spiraling pirouette as the finale comes to the dance. The others have now tired and as if by mutual agreement or unseen signal the partners separate and turn away. The audience below does not understand how it can be over so quickly. They cannot see the fatigue and exhaustion of those in the air; cannot see their battered ships, or their bruised and aching bodies; or their tired, aging eyes. No, they can see none of these things, any more than the men in the air can see the pain or the agony endured by those who must fight on the ground. Each sees the other from afar, as through a glass darkly. It is an irony of war that in each case, either in the Sky or on the Earth, a man better understands and is more akin to the enemy he fights in his realm than to his own countrymen above or below. Christmas Eve at the Front. Night has fallen and the pilots sit about the dinner table at their respective aerodromes, and talk of flying and fighting, and of family and friends. Wishes of the Season are shared, letters from home are read. Songs of hope are sung and toasts are made to fellow flyers, and to mothers and sweethearts. At one of the tables an empty chair stands in remembrance of the comrade lost that day, and to whom the final toast is made. He will be missed, and to a loved one back home he will forever be a young man with bright, happy eyes; forever a photograph, a memory of a life that could have been. It matters not which side he fought for. He was a man, a part of human kind, and with his passing we are all the lesser for it. . May you have safe and blessed holidays wherever you are, and may we each remember the true message of this season: Peace on earth, good will toward men.

Wich map's that? BTW, SUE's computer is not prepared to carry two Exocet missiles, and, mandatory screenie: "what if" CF-115 taking off on a SEAD mission...

A belated Merry Christmas and a warm Happy Holidays! While not nearly as warm, the recent swing in temperatures here in southern British Columbia (I affectionately call it British California in my location) has been nothing but dramatic. On Friday we were experiencing temperatures of 10 degs F and yesterday it was 50 degs F ! Unfortunately, unlike southern California the warming change here has been accompanied by lots of rain. Buy hey, liquid sunshine is par for the course for this time of year in this part of the continent.

We fixed few bugs on the Mirage F1CT Standard 1, the version 4.0.1 have been uploaded.

Merry Christmas from sunny southern California!! We're expecting nearly 80 degs F for Christmas day!! Can you believe that? Half the USA is frozen, and we're toasting! Happy Nude Year too!!

While the Phantoms and Corsairs slept on another lonely inclement day... The Intruder went out to play... All Weather...

sorry! the problem was with the vanilla cargo ship and every other 3rd party or vanilla cargo/tanker ship, I uninstalled all 5 merged games and re-installed them and the problem was gone...maybe there was something with some 3rd party weapons that came with add-on aircraft, I can't tell exactly what could've been but it is solved! so thanks everyone for the tips and help!
