Hi, im looking for some step by step guidance for an old user who is not that computer savy but just started over again putting WOV/WOE on his newest computer as the old one got tempermental and isnt working well. Naturally I finally get it all set up the way I wanted and now have to do all over again. Bottom line one of my main problems is the INVISIBLE EJECTION seat on the few downloaded aircraft I have put onto my game

Any help in making them visible would be appreciated. I believe this happened before on my older computer when I set it all up there as well and thought I muddled thru curing that problem with many others somehow, but cannot remember for sure now!

Thanks in advance, RGDOE

P.S. Never having worked with computers in school in my day, I may need more assistance with other things as I try and rebuild my WOV/WOE and addon worlds!

To open up the weapons editor properly in any operation system beyond Win98 or Windows ME you will need to find the program file for the weapons editor. Right click on it and you should have a dialog box open up near the bottom of the dialog box there is a selection titled "Properties" click on that. Another window should open up and from there you will need to select the tab called "Compatiablity". Right at the top of this tab you will see a click box titled "compatiability mode". By selecting this box and then selecting "Run in Win98 mode" when at the drop down box you should be able to open up the weapons editor. The same works with the gun editior.

SUCCESS! THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR MAKING IT CRYSTAL CLEAR HOW TO DO IT! WOW! JUST TEST FLEW THE

SUPER HORNET WITH TANKS! WHAT A RUSH!

See if this post might help.

Sorry I wish it did but it might as well have been in greek! I have the July "06" Weapons pack/Editor? (I think) I click on it and do all kinds of other things and nothing happens! Do not know how to open it! I have already installed the Notepad INI cut and paste for the AV-8B drop tanks! Then in the readme file it said be sure to open INI with weapon editor and put the changes into effect (Kind of thing), which I do not know how to do! Or why it wont open!

Any info. is appreciated and thanks in advance and for past info., Rich

I am trying to make the drop tanks for the AV-8B, FA-18F and other assorted aircraft visible and in the loadout screen! I think the only thing I have been unable to do is open up the weapons data ini file using the weapons editor to make it all work! Can anyone explain how? Thanks in advance!
