Many thanks for those. My new PC has just arrived while I was writing this. I have just done a search for Johno' scenery, V3 in the add ons and cant find it. I have WM 4.6, can it been installed over the the top or should I un -install WM first. My CFS3 folder has;
Just Flight BOB
Mosquito Combat over Europe
Firepower
MAW
I might try reinstalling BOB as I get a lot of lines and rectangles across the screen. Also I I would like to have a go at instaling Fox effects.

:kilroy:Grahamfox, right here at SOH. Here's the link to the page they're on: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/index.php?loc=downloads&page=downloads&FileType=cfs3-scenery

Starting with the 9th entry down the page. There are six parts:

part6 of jbsceneryV3 (water.zip)
part5 of jbsceneryV3 (hr4.zip)
part4 of jbsceneryV3 (hr3.zip)
part2 of jbsceneryV3 (hr1.zip)
part3 of jbsceneryV3 (hr2.zip)
jbsceneryV3 (jbsceneryV3.zip)(this one is part1)

You need all six parts. Follow the readme in part1. This is excellent stuff. Good luck.:d

Thanks for the link. Do you have one to where the recommendations for the CFS3 configuration utility is.

:kilroy:Grahamfox, you don't need a link for that. It's in your CFS3 main game folder. Look for the icon with the wrench in the gunsight. Click on it and wait a few moments. To set your sliders, click on the File tab, adjust your sliders, then hit Enter. Good luck.:d

Try this thread over at Netwings for some good pointers. It's only 18 months old, so still useful on today's gear.:gossip:

http://forums.netwings.org/forums/showthread.php?t=8818&highlight=CFS3+settings


but the link to the Groundcrew site is no longer valid. Anyone still got the Groundcrew tweaks guide?

:kilroy:Hairyspin, is this it? http://www.regshanger.com/Groundcre...round Crew Design CFS3 2048x2048 settings.php If so, then it's obviously still in the Groundcrew section of Reg's Hangar, here: http://www.regshanger.com/ Just look in the Garage Corner section.:d
 
Graham,

When you install ETO it will have Johnno's scenery, mine and Fox's effects, 46th scenery, ACC Airfields, NEK and everyhthing else except the kitchen sink.

There are also a lot of new weapons, gunms flak etc.Eto is nothing like CFS 3 totally different.

Stevel
 
Also please note that ETO, MAW, and PTO should all be made as separate installs using a vanilla CFS3 + the 2 CFS3 updates. Do not try and put them all one one install.
 
This is all very helpful stuff. I have been seeing references to ETO but didnt know what it was, I have been out of touch for a while. Thanks everybody.
