I have updated this Install Guide for EAW If you have any problems following the directions or come across a problem I didn't cover feel free to contact me or post here, I'll help ya.

If your having problems getting your flight controls whatever they might be to get recognized by EAW v1.2 try these programs. I only got one report that said these programs work well with combining controllers, throttles, pedals of different brands into one virtual joystick. EAW v1.28c and up supposedly support 3 devices and separate pedals and throttles natively, but people are still having problems. So these programs may help even with those versions of EAW, including 1.40. I haven't added this info to my EAW Joystick help guide yet as I haven't been able to test them out myself as I only have one controller. http://eaw.neocities.org/eaw-joystick-remappable.html Try these two programs that I'll link. They combine multiple controllers into 1 virtual joystick. http://evilc.com/joomla/articles/9-code/autohotkey/1-ujr-universal-joystick-remapper and you need this one too to go along with it: http://vjoystick.sourceforge.net/site/ There also is the other standalone program too you may want to try. http://headsoft.com.au/index.php?category=vjoy&page=home

Here's an updated list, I clarified some findings specifically the wider view areas for some resolutions during flight. Plus other updates to the list. If you have anything to add please let me know. Thanks. https://eaw.neocities.org/eaw-known-bugs-feature-ideas.html

I'm in need of ANY EAW archives / files / zips that any old EAW pilots have sitting on there HD or backup CDs. Can you find it with in you to search for your old (and new) EAW files from back in the day (or today) so that I can archive them in my Shared Public Resource? I'm in need of even more files to fill the resource before the files or old EAW users are no longer available. To see the organization I did , please got o my EAW Help Site: https://eaw.neocities.org/ and find the download link there. Please contact me by PM here on CombatAce or I'm on SimHQ too. Let me know where to download your files from or send them to me. Thank You in advance.

Here's a document I wrote up detailing the video problems that have been plagueing EAW for a long time now. There mostly due to the old DX6 code is still used in EAW and its weird 8 bit driven frontend. However the changeing video Drivers have took there toll, ATI supports horizon fog again and Nvidia doesn't now, etc I tried to get all the details down with facts and correct information for future readers. Therse solutions to most of the problems listed, such as using wrappers and such.... I linked it instead of uploading it because the information is still being updated.

I wrote up this 'Bug and Feature Idea's Help Document', thought I'd share it here with a link. https://eaw.neocities.org/eaw-known-bugs-feature-ideas.html I'd like to know if anyone else found any bugs in EAW. Maybe you have some little feature ideas to contribute (not something it would take an army to program.) :)

How did you make out with your controllers?

Help about the Joystick or Flight Controls and remappable functions for EAW: http://eaw.neocities.org/eaw-joystick-remappable.html.

I made quick sheet for the default keys in EAW v1.2. I adopted an old inaccurate sheet (by Migman) and modified it for the new controls present in v1.28 and higher. Also, I did a colored keyboard layout card with v1.40 key functions on it. Current updates of these sheets and download links at my EAW Help Site: https://eaw.neocities.org

Really, then the controllers should be easy to set up if there truly seen as one controller. Which windows version do you have? Did you read my joystick and remappable guide at all?

Install Help Document that I put together. https://eaw.neocities.org/install.html Its primarily for installing from the CD to patch upto v1.2, Tips to just to get you started are included. Also There are directions pointing you to fixing problems and usage for any player to read. Hope it helps.

Thanks guys. I been checking out the downloads here little by little, most I had already, some I didn't. It's neat to find new stuff! If anyone has any EAW files I'm still looking. Not sure if the board has a PM system, but please let me know if you have a collection of EAW files you'd be willing to send me. Thanks.

Just wondering if the same people that visit here are the same at SimHQ? I'm not recieving much help over at SimHQ as far as obtaining old EAW files for my archive, thought maybe a differant crowd is here...

I'm looking for several files from the old EAW community. I'll take any files I can get my hands on, I love trying them out and archiving them too!
