I have pleaded twice for help on downloading and installling eto 1.2 Grizzly 50 was the only one who tried to help. thanks a lot everyone else! after 6 reinstalls, 12 downloads and numerous bouts of cursing it seems to work. I thought this was a good help forum, but i guess not. One final question what happeneed to the airfield and pilot that used to be onthe screen when the game started. now all i get as ike yakking and a pep talk. is this the the way it is supposed to be. Again thanks to grizzly50.
 
Sorry, laddie...
Never saw yer post or yer question(s) ...tell ya one thing, tho'... sumpin's still 'amiss' iffin ya ain't got yer cut scene(s)

Do you know how to find and delete your 'uisel.xml' file in your Win applications folder??
...Also, be sure you are showing an airfield in 'Quick Combat'....:typing:
 
Not every individual's problems are immediately or ever solvable. So much depends on one's PC set up and whatever else one has on it. Without actually being on your PC it is often not clear what the problem is. I wouldn't dis one of the best site for help just because you were unlucky this time.
 
yes sometimes it takes time to find out a solution plus with real life going on not everyone gets on here all the time and sometimes questions get missed,this is one of the best helps sites that u will find, just try and be patient and someone will help
 
Hi bwchaney, looking at your previous posts you have asked a whole string of questions which all seem to have been answered by someone!

We're all guys just like you with a myriad of other things going on in our lives that take prescedent over chatting on forums so sometimes answers can be thin on the ground.

This is THE best forum I've seen for help, friendship and good manners btw!

Your lack of pilot animation - have you run the cfs3 config in your main ETO folder? There's a switch in that to turn the UI animation on or off.

Pat :)
 
cheer up ol m8......i bet ya next question will have 1000 replys:welcome:
glad ya gat the baby workin..cuz shees a treat....

Hi B. I have been logging on to this site for many many years,and i have had many problems with CFS3, and asked for help many times, i dont think you would be able to find such freindly and helpful people on any other forum,sometimes my cry for help has been answered right away,and other times it takes a bit longer, as has been said above if someone can help i am sure they will.
 
bw, welcome to the world of modding sims. Yes it is extreemly frustrating :karate: but you're getting the hang of it. Even with our stickies and search features it can be a daunting task. So blow off some steam curse your computer into the stone age or out the window, which ever suites you at the time. Just stick with it and come back to it when you cool off. I have learned a ton about sims here but it doesn't come easy. The rewards are worth it.

:rapture:
 
understand this game and its ongoing sddons , and its making history in the eras of flight and effects etc.....takes time , and like many we ask . at times its quick amd sometimes we wait in line cause thats how it is . and worth the wait .


i encourage you to be patience at times because the results will blow you away .

i started here and well now ive learnt alot and sill am ....


the team and its creators ....are fantastic and are well deserved of many kuttos .....


so bare with it and youll be like me hooked, and happy .


fly high

...OOOOO, do we try.....:mix-smi: :)p:)
 
Give it time and patience Friend.

Hi Bwchaney,
Sorry to hear it didn't feel such a good situation for you in getting ETO Down Loaded. The actual Download is long and installation quite an affair too, especially with Cumulative Up-date 1.20 now to go in as well.

But- As all other Guys here are saying, It is well worth it, I've just re-installed My ETO 3 days ago and promptly Hosted an on-Line Game, it all worked brilliantly. And Like you, Grizzly was there to check it out. he gave the thumbs up, and I considered myself lucky that Grizz. moniters all these situations, he is a star.

But not everyone can do that,or be around to read Posts at the right time. So take a little and give a little, my experiences of SOH and CFS3 are that they are magnificent. Guys will come out of the woodwork to help if you ask,--- no question about that,---- it's just that their timing does not fit in with yours, Thats all.

I have made some world Class friends in here. it's a great community, so don't miss out on everything by being dismissive too quickly. Lot of older, ( And may I say --Wiser ) folk are in here and don't rush around into anything too fast,:d ----they think before committing themselves to anything. This works well with our medium and younger age groups too. You are actually looking at quite a happy family, please stay here, you'll be glad you did. :wave:

All the best to you,

Bill T.

ps:- Try some of the On-Line CFS3 Games too, if you want some serious competition, we have real top-Grade flyers in here. And it's a great helpful community in it's own right.

Hey Bill, luv yer avatar! Is that Snoopy (or perhaps one 'a his many offspring?):focus:

"DON'T GIVE UP" I also had 3 failed attempts, Using the OZ link, Must have been due to heavy traffic at the time But after talking to GRIZZLY he suggested i try JAYKAE'S direct link that he had posted , and it worked
Here it is , give it a try
http://aussiex.org/SOH/CFS3%20ETO%20Expansion/CFS3_ETO_Expansion_Cumulative_Update_1.20.zip

"NOTE" One thing you probably should do before you try another install is
do a search on your computer and delete any files that pertain to the
CFS 3 ETO EXPANSION CUMULATIVE UPDATE 1.20 , By doing this it should give you a clean install of the new update.


Hope this helps in some way

Isn't that funny; gosd gets 6 responses to his plea for help and i got none until i complained on the forum. Just doesn't seem quite right. I guess I'll just watch the forum and hope my questions get answered by someone elses post getting answered by you guys. bwchaney

Did you get your UI animations back on in your game ?

If not go into the main game folder for the CFS3 ETO EXPANSION
Find the CFS3 config icon, Open it and see if there is a check mark in that window
if so uncheck it , click ok, click file, then exit.
Then go back in and double check just to be sure it is still unchecked

Just in case you have never done this before, When you open up the
CFS3 config ,
click FILE
'' custom settings
" ok on the pop up window
" window
" overrides

HOPE this helps
