lederhosen Posted July 18, 2011 Posted July 18, 2011 Salute is it possible to advance/change the date manually in one of the config.ini's ? Led Quote
Olham Posted July 18, 2011 Posted July 18, 2011 (edited) If you mean the date of a campaign pilot: you only need to open the pilot's dossier, and change it there. You find the pilot dossier here: (your sim folder) > campaigns > CampaignData > pilots The first lines will look like this: 91 Germany Jasta 2 Oberleutnant Wolfram Harms 13 8 1917 14 14 3156 21 6 1917 - So this pilot's actual date is 13 August 1917. You can now just advance the date and save the file. Note: when a pilot is Pilot No. 2 in the ingame log, he will be one no. higher in the files; he will be Pilot3.

Olham Posted July 18, 2011 Posted July 18, 2011 Whenever you should have a question so difficult, that you could only ask it in German, feel free to do so, lederhosen. Quote
RAF_Louvert Posted July 18, 2011 Posted July 18, 2011 . AAAAAAAAH HAAAA HAAAA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!! And no, my name is not Lederhosen, but then my German is atrocious so I probably just misread that bit. . Quote
Creaghorn Posted July 18, 2011 Posted July 18, 2011 . Was ist der Sinn des Lebens? . what intelligent humour you have, my friend, to turn small lacks of nuances of the english language against somebody. LMAO Quote
Olham Posted July 18, 2011 Posted July 18, 2011 I guess there is a lot more missing than just nuances, Creaghorn - it sometimes feels like there's a whole wing missing. Quote
Hasse Wind Posted July 18, 2011 Posted July 18, 2011 You can also manually transfer your pilot from one squadron to another. Just replace the name of your current squadron (in Olham's example, Jasta 2) with the name of the squadron you are transferring in. The name must written correctly to avoid any problems. So if Olham wants to go to Jasta 11, he simply replaces Jasta 2 in that file with Jasta 11. Your new squadron will be shown in your pilot's book when you fly your first mission with them. In P4, it won't be necessary to transfer pilots manually. RAF_Lederhosen Quote

I am really glad you posted this Olham. I run my pilots consecutively, starting each newcomer from the date of the previous pilot's demise. This is usually some way into a campaign period. I have been furiously advancing time to get to the required date! I suspected something like this was possible but was too convinced I'd mess things up. I have just recreated my latest pilot for thr third time, owing to fallout from our hard drive crash, and this has saved me a lot of time. Quote
