A tree is a very large plant.
A farmhouse is a house where the farmer lives.
A pole is a dead tree.
A train is a large mechanized vehicle that runs on rails.

Possibly a very dumb question coming. Can you change the resolution in EAW? I used to have it, but took it off a long time ago when I got my voodoo3 card which didnt seem to want to run the game properly in the low res. Can the res be turned up? I'd like to try out some of these skins

Don't know, these are AH screen shots ( at least mine are) They are not EAW skins.

If you look closer at my screen shots you'll see i'm getting 44-84 frames , this is in 32 bit 1200 with clutter ON.

The screen shots really lost alot in the transition to jpg.

You have to edit a txt file on it, and with that you can set the resolution up to what you want...

Dont remember wich file, but you will find the info on the patch readme.

guys I am not arguing that aces high is ugly!

I am saying we should have the ability to make skins to be SUBMITTED to htc for approval and inclusion in the next patch they release.

you could use whatever the heck u wanted to uiin H2H, but to have your skin "sanctioned" for scenario play you would have to submnuit it as is the current process with terrains.

btw heres a cool aces high screenshot since everyone else is posting them

Nuttz, I was going to start building a Pacific map (maybe factual, maybe fictional, hadn't got that far yet). Now I don't have to.  

Real nice work.

Can you change the resolution in EAW?


First you gotta get the 1.2 patch Newguy. You get that from the microprose site. As RAM says you will find how its changed in the 1.2 readme. But I post this anyway:
EAW.ini is a little but very important file in the EAW folder. You open it with notepad or another editor. The very first section in the file is about graphics and it can look like this:

[GRAPHICS]
TestDrawPrimitive=0
DisplayDevice=2
PlaneDetail=2
TerrainDetail=2
CloudDetail=2
EffectsDetail=2
HorizonDistance=2
Shadow=1
ExternalStores=1
LensFlare=1
LightSourcing=1
VirtualCockpitGauge=1
CockpitShake=0
VirtualCockpitProp=1
3dCityTargets=2
Gamma Value=50
Width=1152
Height=864
Bpp=16


Hope it helps  

Note that I turned cockpit shaking off because it gave me a terrible headache

I'd be for user designed paint schemes as long as they're Historically correct and refereed by HTC.
