WWII Online Standard
First things first, if you don't have a copy
of SDOE you will need to buy it. Luckily there are still websites where you can
buy SDOE and the good news is that the game is really cheap nowadays. One place
you can still buy SDOE is Chips
& Bits for about $10.00 U.S.
Patches
and Downloads
So you've got your original copy of SDOE
sitting on your Hard Drive and your thinking now what? Well over the years the
users of this great sim have made patches to improve gameplay along with
hundreds of new planes and terrains. Through the recent work of a few people all
of these critical files have been placed in self installer packages making it
that much easier for the SDOE newbie. Beleive me, you wouldn't be to fond of the
old way we had to install these files.
The most important step you can follow is download these
files and INSTALL THEM IN THIS ORDER. If you don't you may run into some
problems. These files will get you up to the current online standard for flying
WWII.
