Wings over Europe Air Defense Mod version 0.1
-------------------------------------------------------
This modification adds HAWK SAM batteries to the NATO defenses. It is intended for use in the excellent NATO Fighters Campaign or with the standard campaigns with the outstanding July 2006 Weapons Pack. If you don't have one of these this modifications installed it will not work. Works with single user-created missions and campaigns.
 
This modification includes work by Pasko, Fubar512, and Wrench. I appreciate their work and thank them for permission to include it.
 
Please refer to the README.txt file enclosed for installation instructions.

Wings over Europe 1950's Anti-Aircraft Mod version 1.0
 
This is modification adds heavy and light anti-aircraft guns to the GermanyCE map. Hundreds of 4 gun heavy AAA batteries have been placed
around cities and airfields - over 3000 additional guns. Each airfield has also be given additional light AAA assets. All SAM related map
objects have been removed or replaced with AAA. The effectiveness of the weapons has also been increased to provide a more realistically
hostile environment.
 
I have also faked several additional NATO airfields on the map, which are part of several 1950's era campaigns I am working on. Because I
totally lack any map editing ability, I placed these airfields on existing flat open terrain existing on the map. These are located near
Colmar, Eindhoven, Apeldoorn, and Leuwarden.
 
Unzip the enclosed zip file on your desktop or a temporary file and read the WOE AA Mod Readme.txt file for installation instructions. This
modification requires some editing of files by the user.
 
Thanks to Pasko Patak for allowing me to use his excellent objects, and to all the folks who contributed and put together the modifications
and effects in the WeaponsPack which is required for use of this mod.

Radar Screen Relocation
 
This tiny edit helps my tired old eyes see the radar screen by increasing it's size, making it non-transparent and putting in the lower middle of the screen where it doesn't interfere with seeing the outside world. If you like looking at your instrument panel closely or prefer to use the radar screen in the cockpit, this is not for you (and I envy your eyesight!).
 
Unzip and copy the HUDDATA.INI file into your Flight Folder. If you already have one there because of other modifications, you can simply copy and paste the following section:
 
[Display004]
DisplayType=RADAR
PosX=0.4
PosY=0.78
;PosX=0.865 ;ORIGINAL VALUE
;PosY=0.015 ;ORIGINAL VALUE
Width=0.165
Height=0.22
;Width=0.125 ;ORIGINAL VALUE
;Height=0.16666667 ;ORIGINAL VALUE
Alpha=1.00
InitTime=0.0
;Alpha=0.60 ;ORIGINAL VALUE
;InitTime=2.0 ;ORIGINAL VALUE
 
If you don't like the modification, simply delete the HUDDATA.INI file.
 
Enjoy being able to discern your radar returns!
