Basic aims of the project

Post by Moggy »

The aim is to provide DOM's wonderful "Attack in the West" in a form that can be downloaded and installed without fuss by means of an installer file. Having seen how easy installshield package for Dunkirk can work for users, I have already carried out an experiment to see if the complex installation of AITW can be dealt with in the same way. I made a provisional AITW installer using the last and most up to date of DOM's files including the overall AITW manager and it installs perfectly with a few clicks. Accordingly an installer version of AITW as it stands could be made available at short order.

However, what I would like to do, time permitting, is provide an improved aircraft package, even perhaps some aircraft which were not included in the original. I am thinking for example of the French bombers - LeO451, and Amiot 354 which were included in the Dunkirk package, but had no original models in AITW.
