Firepower and ETO?

Initially, there was uncertainty whether Firepower would work with ETO...it had not been tested.
Has anyone successfully applied Firepower to ETO?
 
Firepower P-15D 'Mustang'

wichner,

I had successfully copy the Firepower version of P-15D 'Mustang' to work with ETO, so that part does work. Now the rest, I do not know yet. I could look into that... The thing that you should keep in mind for doing this: Are you planning to play on-line (multiplaying)? This method, of course, would cause 'mis-matched aircraft error' in most cases... However, the Firepower does have a Multiplayer utility to activate only 'stock' planes to play multiplaying (only for the original Microsoft Combat Simulator 3 stock planes).

I'll keep you posted on that... I expect you to do the same as well---I would very much like to know as well.

By the way, the Firepower version that I had came from the 'Aircraft Powerpack' CD.
 
...if ya install FP over ETO ya will loose some effects that ETO has...
back up before install..

and the a/c has pylons and stuff that DONT work with ETO..ya will CTD..you can, however edit ya XPD to the avh ones and you will be in business:monkies:

Don't install FP over ETO. If you want the a/c I suggest you swap out all the weapons for the equivalent AvHist ones. There will be a small proggie from Bob Park which will do this for some a/c. Maybe when that is released you can compare what it does to the a/c and do it to otheres. that's what Iplan to do. You can go to the http://www.koreanskies.com/ site and Solomons PTO and see the same idea there,
 
thanks guys for your input..

but i've decided to leave well enough alone. no multi-player issues since i'm not online. plenty of a/c and effects in ETO are just fine. i will enjoy eto as is and await 1.3 and i have another cfs3 w firepower installed to enjoy. i'm happy
