EAW V1.* C modified exe files 
                  3rd release (20.06.2003)
========================================== by Andy === 

Hi,
you just downloaded the newest (inofficial) modification of the executable of the flight sim 'European Air War'.

You can get this modification for the 6 exe-versions that are mainly used:

V1.1  (english release)
V1.1  (german release)
V1.1P (Paulo's version)
V1.2  (english release)
V1.2  (german release)
V1.2A

I called these new modifications 'C'-Versions, since 'A' and 'B' have already been used. To avoid confusion I kept additional old letters, so my new modification of the V1.1P is called V1.1PC. Although V1.2A is now obsolete IMO I modified it also and called it V1.2AC.



Installation:

Install EAW as usual, patch it to V1.2.
Unzip the zip file and put the exe in your EAW directory. Run this new exe instead of the old one.

Pay attention when using the german versions. You have to press the 'J' key to answer 'yes' ('ja' in German) when the game asks if you wanna leave the game, end the mission and such things... ;o)



Changes:

* the german AI now always uses their cannons :o) (That's why V1.2A is obsolete now)
* some ground targets are made tougher to destroy, especially trucks, tanks and small buildings. All these can still be destroyed by gun-fire but you will need much more hits now.
* the viewing distances of some ground targets are slightly increased.

These exe files can be used with ANY EAW installation, except an add-on package brings it's own exe-files (as my BoB campaign for instance). So it can be used with any campaign or even with stock EAW.



Acknowledgements:

My thanks go to Chris Coons for offering all this knowledge on the exe file. Without his advice and help this modification would not have been possible.

Cheers,
Andy

new in the 3rd release:
=======================

The exes now include the no CD fix. That means these exes can be used without having the EAW CD in the CD-drive. This only works with a FULL EAW install AND the additional changes decribed below. But you can also use them normally. Don't do the ini-file-changes when you don't have a full install of EAW.


European Air War NO CD fix
--------------------------

1. Install EAW (MUST be full install).
2. Apply EAW patch
3. Run EAW once & exit
4. Edit EAW.INI:
	Search for: Debug Path=
	Replace with: Debug Path=.\
5. Copy the exe from this download to your EAW dir and use it instead of the old one.
