European Air War - The Gen

The Sidewinder should work okay. I used one of those myself.

You can program the buttons using eaw.ini, or simply using the "Configure Game > Control" screen (which amounts to the same thing

Jarod and I are in contact via email. I have sent him a bare-minimum installation which we can use to get his j/s working.
Like you, I also recommended that he only uses the SideWinder for EAW.

I advised him to check the Windows User Account (UAC).
With levels of 0, 1, 2 and 3 it cannot be set to 2 or 3 because they do not let the eaw.exe write to the eaw.ini file.

Now it is ok with my sidewinder precision pro which needed calibration !!
Thanks a lot Moggy

Great to hear that you are up and running!

hi Moggy
the link for the 129 pack is broken....
concerning topic : How to download, setup and run EAW 1.6 - A few clicks and you're in the air!

There are download packs of EAW 1.28c and UAW129 available too:

129 pack: link..............................broken........
the message is : Sorry, the file you requested does not exist. Make sure the URL is correct and the file exists.


have a nice day

I've deleted the links to the 129 and 128C downloads. Sorry about that. Mr. Jelly was essentially running out of room on his download sites and needs to concentrate on UAW 1.6.

If you want to try 1.29, I may be able to put together a package for you.

Hello Moggy

yes, I would like to test this 129 package out of curiosity.
Mr Jelly made me a light package of the 160 (5Go, only EAW) which works great, and i thanked him…. i have others PC to install these softs.
Great work you did with your team
Have a Nice day

Okay, leave it with me and I will see what I can do.

No problem
Thanks indeed

Try this 1.1 GB download: http://mogggy.org/EAW129/UAW129Sept2023.exe

Extract to a new folder which will be the 129 install.

You may need to set up the eaw.ini with your preferred options, and otherwise use the game config screen to install your preferred settings.

Run DSP128-9.exe to choose the exe, and a theatre to fly in.

Thanks i Will try soon….
