New Release: SEOW v7.1
Posted: Sat 06 Sep 2014 8:29 pm
We are delighted to announce a brand new SEOW release that is compatible with the current HSFX7.0.2 and TD4.12.2 versions. The purpose of this SEOW release is to introduce some new maps (Battle of Moscow, Truk, Channel Circus and Battle of Kursk), some consolidation of the v7.0 code base, and an exciting new feature for in-mission interactivity, which we call "signallers".
Many people need thanking for the thinking, changes and testing going into SEOW v7.1. I will mention just a few of the major figures behind the scenes (in no particular order):
Charlie
Catsy
Dore
Kopfdorfer
Ikey
Brandle
Badger
Luny
Warg
Scannon
CountZero
Thor
All of these guys have spent countless hours developing, testing, probing, questioning and playing. They all deserve thanks and respect as do many others that I haven't mentioned.
Now to the software. As always, you can download it from https://sourceforge.net/projects/seow/files/. There are three components to get (if you want to build your own SEOW server):
Mission Planner: MP4public v7.1.13 (semp folder)
DCS: SEDCSv7.1.1 (sedcs folder)
Database: SEDB71 (sedb folder)
Quick Functional Overview
In addition to all the previous functionality, SEOW now:
*) supports operations in 88 different sectors
*) supports all aircraft, ground and sea objects defined in TD4.12.2 and HSFX7.0, with the exception of vehicle columns with more than 32 members
*) supports the new SEOW signaller model, based on Catsy's Trigger Mod v1.2 which will be released as part of the next HSFX update. See http://seowhq.net/seowwiki-en/index.php ... Signallers for details of the SEOW signaller implementation
and much much more.
