Getting 3rd party planes to show up in campaigns...

[33LIMA]

I'm just getting back into SFP1, WoE, WoV and FE (plus have just got 'WoE2' for comparison) and have naturally acquired some 3rd party planes. Now sone addons like the NATO fighters series seem to feature extra campaigns with add-on planes which is great but many add-on planes, while showing up as choicesand flyable in Single Missions, don't seem to appear in campaigns (amybe they do but I've just not seen one yet).

 

Now I'd not necessarily expect adding a plane to make that plane usable by the player in campaign mode, as that would need squadron and base data to be associated, but I was sort of hoping they would show up as AI planes. Especially in First Eagles, where the selection of enemy (and friendly!) 2-seaters is especially limited - one of the things I enjoy in good old Red Baron 3D was seeing FK8s and FE2s in the air as well as BE2s, that sort of thing. But I suppsoe AI planes in SFP1/FE maybe need base and squadron date too, not just the plane available for Single Missions.

 

Tried searching here but can't find the answer, so can anyone help? Is there a way of getting extra, third-party planes to show up in campaigns, short of d'l ing a campaign which features them?

Since I'm not a campaign guy, I can't answer accuratly. But I do know they must be added to the existing campaign ini.

If you search patiently in the Knowledge Base, there is a tutorial on how to edit planes in an existing campaign.

Basically, you can swap one plane/squandron, for another.
