Support for "Total Air War"

Hi,

I'd like to request that the game "Total Air War" by DID be added to the list of Track IR Enhanced games. If there is something I can do to facilitate this, please let me know.

Thanks,
Allen

Hi Allen,

I believe that DID disbanded many years ago, and I'm pretty sure that there is nobody supporting the software with updates any more. If you know of a community dev team that has taken those responsibilities over, I'd be happy to talk with them about getting TrackIR integrated into the game. Otherwise, I think you are out of luck. TrackIR needs to be integrated into the game directly, so we need somebody with access to the source code to work on the project.

Seth,
Thanks for the quick reply.

I don't know their level of source code knowledge/access, but, there are some guys tweaking the sim who post on the SimHQ forums. I'll forward your response and see if any of them are interested/willing/able.

Seth,
I received a reply by an individual with experience hex editing Total Air War (TAW) that he would be willing to try incorporating TrackIR enhanced support with help/guidance by you/NaturalPoint support staff.

He (and another TAW fan) mentioned that the TSH group were able to incorporate TrackIR into Jane's FA-18 though hex editing and without source code, and therefore it may be possible with TAW.

I have given him a link to this forum. Is this the best way for us to proceed and for him to contact you?

Seth,

I just used the patch that you helped create for TIR support in TAW.

It brought new life (immersion and fun) to an older but distinguished game.

Thank you very much!

Allen
