Thank you! Also a special thanks for all your help previously in assisting me with EAW on my old XP machine earlier this year. it was a massive effort but it was worth it in the end. If you celebrate it, have a great Christmas and a great new year. Cheers.

yes please send me that 1.28b Glide 3 exe if u can. I'll take 1that 30to140 early build and see how it is

Lol, Hello again Mark. Well i just wanted to archive it no real reason other then that tbh. I'd even like to get a hold of 1.40 too if that's possible.

Hi everyone, Where can i obtain EAW 1.30? can't seem to find this particular version anywhere to download. Thanks

Fixed it by bumping up the resolution to 1024x768. Call me crazy but i prefer it at 640x480 for this game, but oh well. Last question Mark, is there a way to disable mouse cockpit view rotation? it's annoying.

Just tried that and it's still in windowed mode grrr....

Update. InitFullScreen was set to ! and CreateWindow was set to 0 by default and yet ingame window is in almost full screen windowed mode lol

Ok I'll mess with the OpenGLid.ini file later and report back. As for Glide Mode, is DisplayDevice=2 glide mode? I set graphics to glide ingame and during flight it looks like i'm getting glide.

Hi everyone, After a long time & many attempts in trial and error in getting EAW v1.20 working on my Windows XP retro machine with Intel graphics i successfully managed to pull it off by using DxWnd with EAW12 (Stock)-DXWnd found on Mark's website and OpenGLide 009rc7 for glide graphics. But I face a new problem. When I'm flying the game goes into some kind of Windowed mode I'll post a screenshot of it so folks know what i'm talking about. So, my question is how do I get rid of it and get full screen while flying? Problem.bmp

Hi everyone, Is there a Discord group EAW? I wouldn't mind flying with other EAW pilots sometime if there are any still around? I have GameRanger so i'm guessing that's how you get online nowadays.

I never considered to install the un-offical update lol seemed to be dodgy. One thing that my retro does pack really well is the Pentium 4. I mean it ran most of my old school games well such as All Command & Conquer games (Up until C&C 3), AVP1 & 2, Conflict Desert Storm 1 & 2, ShellShock Nam 67, MechCommander 1 & 2, Emperor Battle for Dune, Descent 1 & 2 (even with the upgraded graphics rebirth mod), Classic Doom 1 & 2 (Brutal Doom mod), and many more i could mention on here... there's something about playing classic games on old hardware it's like going back in time.. it's an early 2000s Dell machine maybe there's drivers that i missed and those are still on Dells website. Might need to check it out.

I've only seen a portable nGlide with some gog games, i even tried to "borrow it" from one game and use it for EAW but no luck there. And yes, my retro machine has the last of the XP updates before it became out of support. The only update it doesn't have is that un-offical SP4 update. And i believe it has latest Intel drivers for the chipset.

Just tried another game which has glide graphics and yeah even this game gave me errors. So yeah, i think my retro PC just doesn't like any glide wrappers at all. I must of tried at least 10 different ones to no success. I'll just have to play EAW on my windows 11 RTX rig and just move the keyboard outta the way to make room for the joystick, my monitor is huge. Sometimes we don't get what we want. Anyway though, thanks for all ya help Mark, most folks would of either not replied or would have bailed awhile ago but you stuck around and i really appreciate it.

Yes I did remove dgvoodoo first, i figured two wrappers would conflict with each other. However i'm not sure where to find a portable version of nGlide though can't seem to locate it on their website.

I tried different higher res through the eaw.ini file it didn't solve the gray line horizon. Btw dgvoogoo doesn't seem to like the dd wrapper it crashes during MPS. I found nGlide092 version which is apparently supported at the time for XP but when i click on fly now i get Glide init error.
