Downloadable Keycard: (Eaw-kbrd.jpg 2.3MB)
by 56th FG_Pharaoh.
Has kindly scanned and posted his own keycard for convenient download. With EAW now being bundled with some joysticks or sometimes hitting the bargain bin, some EAW CD's no longer come with a keycard. Not to worry, though! He points out that you might have to print it in two halves and tape them together, but it should work.

The fine print on the keys, To preserve this, I had to scan at a relatively high resolution and keep it at the full size. The print would be about 6 inches by 18 inches. Being in JPG format, you can use any graphics editor of choice to cut, paste, reduce, whatever, to be able to print off a usable copy. You will most likely have to print in two halves and tape them together. I did this for a local friend and it worked out just fine.

Printable Maps: (EAWPrintableMaps.7z 2.42MB)
by 56th Fighter Group.
Here are downloadable printable maps of the entire EAW world. They have been saved lengthwise to make easier to print out on a standard 8.5 x 11 paper. For the complete map you should use 8 x 14 paper. Resize it as necessary in your graphics program to your tastes. I put mine in plastic sleeves and mark my targets in grease pencil!!

...

Airbase Location Printable Maps v3.2: (JWCEAWMapsv3.2.zip 1.34MB)
by JWC.
EAW Maps in .BMP format you can print. Cities and airbases have been labeled, making the buggy original in-game map obsolete...Have you ever looked at the EAW map while flying in the sim and wondered just what that little square really is? Or flown over a town or airbase and not known what its name is? Well, now you can get maps that show all the locations and the names of EVERY target or airbase in EAW! They're designed to be printed on regular 8.5 by 11 inch paper. (note: not yet available for "drop-in" use in the EAW directory)
Old Versions: eawmaps.zip  , eawmaps31.zip ,  JWCEAWMaps.zip , JWCEAWMapsv3.1 852kb

They are color maps taken from Single Mission screenshots with the names of the targets/airfields superimposed on them. They should still be printable, though. I printed mine on an Epson Color Stylus 640 at 720 dpi. The names are readable, if a little small.

There are currently three maps:

1) Germany
2) France, Belgium, and the Netherlands (map includes 2X closeup of the Pas-de-Calais area)
3) England in 1940 at 2X

"England in 1940" doesn't have as many airfields as it does in later years. As far as I can tell so far, the number of airfields in France, Germany, Belgium, and the Netherlands does not change as time goes on (except I'm not sure if all of them are available as Allied bases after being liberated [in the Occupied Countries] or captured [in Germany]).

The map of England is a little different from the in-game map: my map now reflects what you see when you look out of the cockpit, especially near the coast. The on-screen map in EAW does not necessarily do so! (example: Gravesend and Rochester are on the south bank of the Thames on my map and when you look out of the in-game cockpit; they are on the north side on the in-game map) One touch that I am proud of is a rough outline of the urban area that comprises "EAW London": it takes up quite a bit of countryside!

My next "cartographic project" is to finish England in '43-45. This should be identical to 1940 but with more airfields.

There are a total of 162 usable airfields in EAW. 50 of them are in England. Of course, some of that depends on the time period; there are not as many in England in the Battle of Britain, for instance, as there are later on. But there should be the maximum number available for a P-47 campaign.

Goat Squad Guide To EAW Online: (GoatSquadGuidetoEAW.7z 22kb)
by McGruff_GS.
This guide is aimed at helping new pilots get started with online play. I'll show you how to get into games on the (free) MSN EAW zone, how to setup your joystick & keyboard so you can keep track of a fight, and give you a few basic ideas on flying.

Read through the guide, try out some online games and then come back and read it again. There's a lot of information to take in but slowly it will all start to make sense. Part of the fun of EAW is that it's not an easy game to play really well - but it definitely gets more rewarding the more you learn. Stick at it, keep learning and thinking, and one day maybe you will become an online ace.

At the time of writing (late 2001), the game is widely available in the UK and US. If you're having trouble tracking it down, ask around on the MSN EAW gaming zone or on the simhq.com EAW board.

3DZ Change Size View And Shooting Difficulty: (3DZChangeSizeViewAndShootingDifficulty.7z 5.05kb)
by Wudpecker.
DZ Sizes Size changes are useful on such things as buildings, trucks, tanks, even entire aircraft.

Use the 3DZ Scaler.exe tool to change sizes on ANY 3DZ, including ground Tmod 3DZ's. Much faster than trying to remodel the 3DZ on paper or in Gurney's 3DZ program or the older Alessandro Borges' 3DZ!Studio.

There is a simple and quick way to increase aircraft sizes---if that's really desirable. Some sample DOS batch files will be found below that can be modified.

3dz Codes Making Things Change: (3dzCodesMakingThingsChangeInModels.7z 65kb)
by Moggy.
EAW allows for visible changes in 3d models via a series of codes attached to the relevant elements in the 3dz file. These codes work by allowing the element to be drawn if one situation applies, and not allowing the element to be drawn if another situation applies. Take for example the situation whereby once your wings have taken a certain level of damage, they fall off your plane.

3DZ File Analysis: (3dzfiles.zip 6.26kb  or  3DZFilesAnAnalysis.7z 56kb)
by Alatriste.
This document covers every 3DZ file used by Microprose in EAW with detailed descriptions and possible uses, each one ordered by plane type and name. In my opinion a must read document, along with Paulo's notes, to understand how EAW manages 3D models and a little guide for 3DZ beginners.

3DZ Editing Notes: (3DZFileStructureEditingNotes.7z 486kb)
by Paulo Morais.
In an unbelievable speed Paulo Morais has discovered a wide range of information about the internal data structure of EAW's 3DZ files - these determine the aircraft's 3D shape. Advanced programmers / hex-editor pros should read this now... Other Version: 3dzedn.zip package.

3dz Link Points And Paste On: (3dzLinkpointsAndPasteOn.7z 2.88MB)

The ultimate development of the EAW 3dz model is found in the four engine bombers. These aircraft are composed of six different 3dz files, pasted together by hardpoints analogous to the hardpoints that place visible external ordnance.

I give instructions how to model new aircraft for use in EAW based on my own approach to do this - I call it Concerted Action Modeling (CAM). It is just my way to do 3DZ editing - neither is it the only one nor is it necessarily the best - however, it has proven to be quite effective in my opinion.
