changing campaigns

[lederhosen]

Salute,

 

 

 

I have found that the standard campaigns that came with the "Gold" download tend to run without any problems as when compared to the add-on ones. This may be due to the aircraft addons themselves. It seems pritty easy to change things in FE, so I was wondering where one has to look and then change...lets say the Cambrai campaign.

 

would like to see more Be2's and not just RE8's

 

would like to fly the AlbD3

 

maybe even add a few squadrons etc....

 

if possible then please let me know,

 

danke

Have you tried looking in the knowledge base, i think they have an article on editing campaigns in there.

Just open the campaign_data.ini, you'll see all the squadrons listed there. First come the player-flyable squadrons and after that, AI controlled. Just change the lines AircraftType= for any squadron you want, it's really easy. Don't forget to change the MissionChance lines too, so that fighters do fighter stuff, bombers bomb etc.

 

Oh, and the AircraftType value is the name of a folder of aircraft in Objects/Aircraft/ folder. E.g. To get 150hp SPAD 7, you should write SPAD7_150 as a value.

 

Hope it helps. Just look at the campaign files, and everything should be self-evident.
