A20 on Karulha

By GastonGaston

A20 on Karulha

Mission for FB-AEP-PF merged.

Here is a mission for a max of 20 players :

-8 fighter pilots (escort and CAP) and
-4 A-20G teams (1 pilot and 2 gunners each)

The ideal solution :

-let no1 A-20 as AI to lead the pack on the right way,
-and have at least 2 pilots (nos 1 and 3) for each fighter group.

For the "simili"-historic thing, read the briefing...

Skins are coming with the pack (only 6). Big thank you to their authors, even if I have forgotten their names (except Buglords) !!!

Install is very simple :

-unzip all in a temporary folder and open the obtained folder (A-20 sur Karulha).

-copy-paste everything in your FB-root : everything will automatically go to the right place !!! well... that's how it is supposed to work...

-Run the game, launch a coop mission,

-choose the new A20 pack,

-choose "Attack on Karulha" mission.

Pay attention to the briefing. Check the directions on the map (those indicated in the briefing are purely approximate indications).

And have a good flight !!!

America's Ace of Ace's Richard Bong 40 kills with a P38 Lightning

By Hairog

Can you match the exploits of America's Ace of Aces? I have portray as accurately as possible the circumstances faced by Dick Bong in his 2 year onslaught of the Japanese armed forces in the Pacific. All of Bong's successful missions have been recreated.

America's Ace of Aces
Richard Ira Bong

Just over the Wisconsin border from Illinois is the most stolen sign in America. It reads "Bong Recreation Area". 99% of the people you ask will have no idea who or what the area is named after. It's a shame that the greatest fighter pilot America has ever produced is all but forgotten and his name has become a joke.

This is just my attempt to educate a small number of you as to the life and times of Richard Ira Bong, America's Ace of Aces. His record 40 kills will never be surpassed. This unlikely farm boy from tiny Poplar Wisconsin became a super star and then faded into the history books. He deserves more than 15 min of fame.

I have recreated all of Bong's successful missions. If you equal or surpass Bong's record with all the realism options turned on without do overs and without using the auto pilot you have accomplished a major feat and should be proud of your simulated flying skill.

I have tried to portray as accurately as possible the circumstances faced by Dick Bong in his 2 year onslaught of the Japanese armed forces. I have had to use different maps because many of the areas that Bong fought in are not represented in the game yet. Areas such as Northern New Guinea, Rabal, Borneo, the Philippine Islands of Negros, Mindoro and Leyte have not been modeled yet. I have found very similar areas on other maps that fit the bill however. By using the southern part of New Guinea I was able to recreate the Lae area farther to the north; by using the Singapore map I could recreate similar conditions to the Philippine islands etc. I think you will get the feel of the historical area and conditions.

The folder BongCampaign goes in the US folder that is in the Campaign folder that is in the mission folder.
The folder BongSingle goes in the US folder that is in the Single folder that is in the mission folder.
The P38J, P38L and P38L_Late folders go in the skins folder that is in the PaintSchemes folder.

This campaign is complex and requires a powerfull computer and video card. It was done with IL2FB+PF Combined Install version 4.04.

Mission Bong29 (Rivals Together) is very complex. You might want to try out your computer on this one first if you plan on doing the campaign. I was having fun trying to make a realistic invasion scene and it got out of hand. Feel free to tone it down if you know how. Much of what is going on is not relevant to your mission as a pilot. Just invasion craft, bunkers, BB and CAs shelling each other etc. It's a hoot. Look around using the Cnt F2 command as I have placed some fixed cameras.

Three books were instrumental in providing the historical facts for this endeavor...

Ace of Aces, The Dick Bong Story - Written by Carl Bong and Mike O'connor
Dear Mom So We Have A War by Carl Bong
Dick Bong Ace of Aces by Gen. George Kenney

I had unique access to these books being from Wisconsin. There are many quotes directly from Dick's letters home to his mother. They provide an extrodinary window as to the thoughts and concerns of a farm boy a long way from the farm but making the best of it.

Carl Bong is Dick Bong's brother and Gen. Kenney was Dick's commanding officer. I have copied major parts of the "descriptions" from these books. I am not a writer but I do know how to copy well. The first mission is from the Kokoda Campaign for Pacific Fighters by VBF_80 and the skins are all modifications of other people's painstaking work the most notable being "Marge" by Richard Mutt or RMutt. I couldn't have done this project without the jump start these artists provided.

I wish to apologize for the racial epithets used to describe the Japanese race. This was the language of the times and the quotes are verbatim. I'm sorry if they cause any discomfort. I do not mean to offend, just to be historically accurate with my quotes. Because of the 3 books mentioned I believe these missions to be very accurate, sans the proper maps of course. The conditions, land forms, forces encountered are as historically correct as can be created. Any additions or corrections would be appreciated.

There are a few fun missions. One where you take off at night and try and get Washing Machine Charlie as Bong tried to do a few times... Another where you get into a dogfight in a SBD against a float plane... One where you have a mock dog fight with a P47 as Bong did while on leave... and the last one where you try and complete the only mission that Dick Bong could not.

Feel free to add a video or awards etc. I have no idea as to how to go about doing that. Add all you want but please dont change the basic facts of the missions. The research is pretty good. If you do put the plane on autopilot, you will encounter all the bogies that Dick Bong shot down.

P.S. Oh yeah, by the way, did you know who Bong was before you read this?

This is America's Ace of Aces 3.0

I promise that the video tracks will work now.

A huge thank you to WheelsUp_cavu. I had screwed up the videos so royaly that they didn't play and he took the time to set things straight. Thank you Wheels!

It's time to fly the Lighting again.

This is version 3.0 of America's Ace of Aces enhanced with video tracks. Hopefully the videos add to the historical feel and accuracy of this campaign following in the footsteps of America's greatest pilot and greatest plane.

America's Ace of Aces sample video tracks.

By Hairog

If anyone is interested this small campaign is just a sample of the video tracks I am adding to the campaign.

Unzip the folder Bong Tracks into the missions/campaign/us folder.

Choose new pilot career and then USAAF then Bong Tracks.

Set the difficulty on easy so you can finish the missions by pressing ESC and then Quit Mission and Apply.

The missions are all the same one and are just there to separate the videos.

There are 8 video tracks that highlight some of the missions in the real campaign "American's Ace of Ace's Richard Bong.

Enjoy.

April Fools v1

The Ohka was launched around 55 miles(88km) from the target, usually from under the belly of a Mitsubishi G4M "Betty" bomber, at an altitude of about 27,000 ft (8,240m) and speed of 175-200 mph(280-320 km/h). The first 50 miles(80km) were covered by gliding at around 230mph(370km/h), upon which the pilot ignited the rockets to take the speed up to around 535 mph(860 km/h). In the final dive approach, speeds of up to 620 mph(1,000 km/h) were reached.

The first recorded attacks by an Ohka is on March 21, 1945, when 16 were launched to intercept a US Navy fleet at Kyushu. However, the G4M Ishiki-Rikko was one of the weak links of the Ohka, the Mitsubishi bomber was virtually unarmoured and its entire wing was a giant fuel tank without a self-sealing lining; it was slow and unwieldy at the best of times and the addition of the Ohka made it even more so. This mission illustrated this vulnerability to a T when it was intercepted by Grumman F6F Hellcats and all the bombers were destroyed.

The first successful attack is thought to have been on April 1 1945, damaging the battleship USS West Virginia and two cargo vessels.

On April 12 the American destroyer, USS Mannert L. Abele was sunk by a direct hit.

On May 4, the destroyer Shea was hit by an Ohka as was the USS Hugh W Hadley on May 11; while they did not sink, both destroyers were judged to be beyond repair.

Butch's Bash

Pacific Fighters Mission - 4 players take-off from the Lexington -

....On 11 January 1942, CV-2, the USS Lexington sailed from Pearl Harbor as the flagship of TF 11. Task Force 11 consists of the Lexington, two heavy cruisers, and six destroyers The Lexington has been assigned the dangerous task of penetrating enemy-held waters north of New Ireland. From there her planes are to make a strike at Japanese shipping in the harbor at Rabaul.

Unfortunately, while still 400 miles from Rabaul, the Lexington was discovered by a giant four-engine Kawanishi flying boat.

Nine twin-engine enemy bombers have been spotted comming in from the South and Commander Thach has just led six Wildcats into the air to intercept them.

After Commander Thatch led the Wildcats towards the incoming enemy bombers, Lt Butch O'Hare noticed he had fuel problems, and turning 180 degrees he returned to his ship, the Lexington.

Suddenly he noticed nine more enemy bombers attacking from the opposite direction and alone and desperate, he attacked and took on all nine. single handedly destroyed five of them, and forced the rest to turn away.

For this Lt Butch O'Hare earned a Medal of Honor. Can you do the same with four aircraft Let me know what you think?

D-Day T.O.O. v2

"D-Day Targets of Opportunity"
Three historical missions of D-Day,
1) P-38 CAP of the beaches,
2) P-47's stopping 22nd SS Panzer and Panzer Lehr Divisions trains South of Caen
3) A-20 attacking the Rail marshalling yards at Le Havre

1944 June 6 D-DAY - on a foggy overcast day the Allies land at Normandy. Field Marshal Rommel was of the firm belief that the only way to defeat an invasion was to counterattack the beaches as early as possible with armour.

Two hours before the seaborne landings began, Field Marshal von Rundstedt ordered the two reserve panzer divisions available for counterattack in Normandy, the 12th SS Panzer and Panzer Lehr, to move immediately toward Caen. He did so on the basis of an intuitive judgment that the airborne landings were on such a large scale that they could not be a mere deception maneuver and would have to be reinforced from the sea. The only place such landings could come in lower Normandy were on the Calvados and Cotentin coasts. He wanted armor there to meet the attack.

von Rundstedt's reasoning was sound, his action decisive, his orders clear.

But the panzer divisions were not under his command. They were in OKW reserve. To save precious time, von Rundstedt first ordered them to move out, then requested OKW approval. OKW did not approve. At 0730 Jodi informed von Rundstedt that the two divisions could not be committed until Hitler gave the order, and Hitler was still sleeping. von Rundstedt had to countermand the move-out order. Hitler slept until noon

Hitler's mistrust of his generals and the generals' mistrust of Hitler greatly assisted the Allies. So were Hitler's sleeping habits, as well as his Wolkenkuckucksheim ideas.

The two panzer divisions spent the morning waiting. There was a heavy overcast; they could have moved out free from serious interference from Allied aircraft. It was 1600 when Hitler at last gave his approval. By then the clouds had broken up and Allied fighters and bombers ranged the skies over Normandy, smashing anything that moved.

MISSION DATE: Sunday, TUESDAY, 6 JUNE 1944
GAME REQUIREMENT: IL2-FB-PF 3.04m

December_7th_1941_small

By fabianfred

a mini campaign of Pearl harbor... with the frst mission as a look at the fleet just before take-off... just to look at... you don't fly in this one
the second is the take-off phase... more scene seting eye-candy
the third attack phase has a choice of four different complexities depending how good your machine is, and how much stutter you are prepared to put up with....
(this is called the small version because it is missing some sound files I included with the full version... just briefing screen music... which bumbed it up to over 6 mb.

DGen debugging guide

For players of offline dynamic campaigns with DGen.

If you have installed third-party dynamic campaigns DGen add-ons, either freeware (True Pacific, Disaster On the Frontiers, etc) or payware (Battle Over Europe, Ostfront, The Last Days), you certainly faced some minor bugs or compatibility issues. If you want to sort them out and enhance your flying experience with DGen, then this guide may be helpful to you!

This is a guide written based on my own experience; of course now the trouble should be minimized thanks to the publication of EnjoyR's patches.

This guide may also be of interest to players who wish to modify their DGen campaigns. Basically all DGen files can be manually edited, but it is somewhat of a challenge.

Let us share our experience together, to enhance the DGen dynamic campaigns!

DGen_briefings_corrected_v1.0.zip

DGen campaigns briefings - All languages except Russian.
--------------------------------------------------------

Version 1.0 - June 30th, 2007

As you probably have realized if you play DGen dynamic campaigns, there are many mistakes in current DGen briefings files:

1) Missing campaign briefings and/or debriefings, which result in strange words displayed on the screen, such as "LeningradSummer44DeBr" or "Africa42tGbDb" for instance.
2) Mistakes in briefings, which can make it sometimes impossible to display them in the game, especially when DGen syntax is not properly respected.
3) Wrong or missing aircraft descriptions or city names
4) Spelling and grammar errors

There are countless errors in the files, which is unavoidable given the hundreds of possible campaigns and probably thousands of various combinations of missions and campaigns which are available.

So I checked each briefing file, in all languages except Russian, and compared the contents with each related campaignsXXY.dat file, for all DGen campaigns.

Basically all files have had to be corrected, except the Polish briefings and a couple of the RAF briefings over Murmansk. All others are corrected.
For spelling and grammar, I corrected only the French briefings. For all languages, I tried to correct as many DGen errors as possible, such as missing briefings or debriefings.

There are probably still many mistakes, but at least with these files now the user should be able to start a campaign without seeing something like "Lvov41SkBr", and finish campaigns without seeing something like "KurlandAug44DeDb".

Some of the briefings will appear in English even if you use another language in the game, some will be blank, but I added new ones for most campaigns which had no briefings.

Thanks a lot to Ijekio ULMAR who provided me with a translation of his Africa campaigns briefings made by Gagarin, which I adapted slightly.

Some mission briefings for the Luftwaffe over Africa may look strange, because they refer to Soviets as enemies: this is due to the fact that these files are common with Eastern Front campaigns.

TO INSTALL, simply unzip the DGen folder contained in the zip, into the game's main directory, for all versions of installations/add-ons/patches.

By default the game's main directory is C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\IL-2 Sturmovik 1946, or C:\Program Files\Ubi Soft\IL-2 Sturmovik Forgotten Battles.
You can also use these files if you have Pacific Fighters only.

Allow Windows to overwrite older files.

I intend to update these files whenever necessary.
If you find mistakes, please let me know what campaign/mission briefing is wrong, and I will do my best to correct further: e-mail to me at vtrelut@yahoo.fr

Happy Flying!

DGenbriefingsfixed2.zip

DGen campaigns briefings - All languages except Russian.
--------------------------------------------------------

Version 2.0 - July 8th, 2007

As you probably have realized if you play DGen dynamic campaigns, there are many mistakes in current DGen briefings files:

1) Missing campaign briefings and/or debriefings, which result in strange words displayed on the screen, such as "LeningradSummer44DeBr" or "Africa42tGbDb" for instance.
2) Mistakes in briefings, which can make it sometimes impossible to display them in the game, especially when DGen syntax is not properly respected.
3) Wrong or missing aircraft descriptions or city names
4) Spelling and grammar errors

There are countless errors in the files, which is unavoidable given the hundreds of possible campaigns and probably thousands of various combinations of missions and campaigns which are available.

So I checked each briefing file, in all languages except the Russian language, and compared the contents with each related campaignsXXY.dat file, for all DGen campaigns.

Basically all files have had to be corrected, except the Polish briefings and a couple of the RAF briefings over Murmansk. All others are corrected.
For spelling and grammar, I corrected only the French briefings. For all languages, I tried to correct as many DGen errors as possible, such as missing briefings or debriefings.

There are probably still many mistakes, but at least with these files now the user should be able to start a campaign without seeing something like "Lvov41SkBr", and finish campaigns without seeing something like "KurlandAug44DeDb".

Some of the briefings will appear in English even if you use another language in the game, some will be blank, but I added new ones for most campaigns which had no briefings.

Thanks a lot to Ljekio ULMAR who provided me with a translation of his Africa campaigns briefings made by Gagarin, which I adapted slightly.

Some mission briefings for the Luftwaffe over Africa may look strange, because they refer to Soviets as enemies: this is due to the fact that these files are common with Eastern Front campaigns.

TO INSTALL, simply unzip the DGen folder contained in the zip, into the game's main directory, for all versions of installations/add-ons/patches.

Espagne

By GastonGaston

Here it is!!! The much talked about (OK, somewhat talked about) Spanish campaign.

It consists of:
-the campaign missions, edited as well for single mission play
-12 missions adapted for multi-player co-ops
-all neccessary skins!!!

To install, simply do the following:

-unzip everything into a temporary folder (TEMP, for example), open the folder "Espagne" then cut and paste the folders named "Missions", "Samples" and "Paintschemes" into the Il-2 Sturmovik Forgotten Battles main folder.

And...voila! That's all there is to it!!

After taking off it will not be easy to survive all the different missions in this campaign.
To fly it, go to Campaign and, under France, select "Spain 1938".

Do not forget to activate the "play music" option, so you will have some ambiance sounds during the briefings.

In the skin of a Republican pilot you will take on your Nationalist adversaries (Fascist or Franquistes).
You will have the chance to try many different things: ground attack, reconnaissance, fly a captured enemy plane, escort bombers or secret agents, intercept bombers or enemy reconnaisance planes...

You will also encounter different types of planes...you will even find the enemy flying the same type of plane as yours on occasion so be sure about what you are firing at!!!

The multiplayer missions are playable from one side for those which take place on small maps, and from two sides for those on large maps.

Of course, the game does not provide a map of Spain (sniffff....) so I had to improvise a bit, but if you use your imagination for the names on the map it'll all be fine!!!

So, welcome to Spain, and fly well, compañero!!!

Oops..almost forgot...the first mission of the Campaign (All or Nothing) is an adaptation from a mission created by Mad_Cat.

Have fun!!!

===============================
Special dedication:

This work is affectionately dedicated to the memory of my grandfather, Paul (nicknamed Popol), who died 5 years ago, and who, in his youth and as a militant syndicalist and avowed Communist, volunteered to go and fight fascism in Spain in the ranks of the International Brigades. I miss you Papy...but
the struggle goes on!!!

===============================

Credits

My special thanks to all the skinners of our community:
-Tchaika
-Kamikuza
-UF_Josse
-Hoarmurath
-Billis851
-AngelOfMons
-Jutocsa
-Tuckie
-UF_Zargos
-Col. Douglas King
and to the others whose names escape me at the moment...
Without the marvellous talent and hardwork of all these skinners this campaign would never have seen the light of day!!!

Thanks in particular to the Spanish Civil War site webcindario (hello Tuckie!!!), in Spain. It had the brilliant idea of reuniting in one place, the skins of all the aircraft that fought in the war in Spain,
a la www.il2skins.com

Finally, a big thank you to Jude Simmonds, aka FlatSpinMan, a New Zealander who washed ashore in Japan, and who did what needed to be done to translate this campaign into English for our Anglo-Saxon friends!!!
He also created the bases from which you will take off. Yes, I know... I am quite lazy on this aspect of things... THANKS, man !!! You're the BEST !!!

Also special thanks to Jeanba with which I had so many mails about this campaign. Hope his PC is still OK... ;-)

Do not forget : switch off the "no instant success" option !!!

And... Viva España !!!
