Hermoso" Subject: Tornado CDROM updating Hi, Does somebody know if SH offers the possibility of upgrading existing copies of Tornado to the new CDROM edition? In fact, I asked this same question to SH by e-mail one month ago, but as of today I haven't got any answer to my question. If SH does not upgrade Tornado, would it be possible to get the upgrade directly from DI even if you have the american version? Hope someone has a positive answer to this, otherwise I will have to start waiting a few months before buying any games in order to get the CDROM version instead of the diskette version :-( Juan A.

If some one can help us tired pilots with pooreyesight on this one I sure would be gratefull. Any ideas would help. Gosh seems like too many answers to spreadsheet...not like WCI which seems to have about a dozen commonly asked questions. At least in LHX (by Brent Iverson too) you could memorize half of them. Brent are you reading this!? Help us out. -And again, I saw on the FS mailer that there is a "new" CYAC coming out , however I have absolutely nothing else anywhere to confirm this. I did see the new Mac ver, which is not a port. ANd it may be the only good flight sim for the Mac. Beats FS4, Falcon, Aces and RB hands down. ANd I like them all on the PC. -Regarding your JS#2 problem in CYAC. DId you call EA for help? WHat about a kludge: put a JS switch on your "Y" cable and just shut off the ofending JS when in CYAC. Something like a goofy JS problem wouldn't get me to delete CYAC and even tho' GEnie AW is cool on-line the home ver stinks in comparison to CYAC. FUN: try the Korean mission...ground attack....Chuck says:"I didn't know those Migs were there !?" of course by now youv'e flamed 'em in your Mustang check hat ! -= john "sirpo" hiett =- hiett@caer.uky.edu CI$: 72724,204 INN: 89726 ------------------------------- From: JIMMY@v8.LJ.SD.RAY.COM Subject: Aviator on Sun wkstation Has anybody on the list played Aviator on the SunOS 4.1.x ? It's made by Artificial Horizon Inc, $49.95/hostid. It allows multiplane dogfight on the ethernet. From the screen shot I got, its texture mapped terrain is very nice.

Nah, it's not that bad. 18 planes by 7 columns; took me about 20 minutes to punch it in - saved about 20 hours thumbing the manual. I'd post it, but copyrights and all.....

I found in a german game-magazin a review of the CES in Las Vegas, in which was reported that MicroProse will release a game called 'Across the Rhine'. It will be about tank-battles between the Americans and the Germans at the end of WWII. It probably won't be released in Germany.
