JollyRogerTwo Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 SFP1 Edward's Solomons campaign. I found an interesting custom mission titled "Kill Yamamoto". I had some difficulty loading it at first but managed (with help from here) to figure out what the problem was. I fixed that and now it loads OK. File this mission under "Remarkably Hard To Win" The mission begins on the runway. The instant I pop into 3D and find myself on the runway, Red Crown notifies me our mission has failed and recommends we RTB. RTB?? Hmmmm. A quick glance around and it is abundantly clear we haven't even LEFT the base yet. How did we fail? I guess someone just forgot to say "May I?" I loaded the mission into notepad and into KMD and I cannot see an error. Since I am a novice I could easily have missed it. Is anyone familliar with this glitch or have a suggestion where to look for a fix? I just ignore RC, takeoff anyway, shoot down Yamamoto and his escort and complete the mission but it makes no difference. I am unfairly (I think) credited with a failed mission. This and one more custom mission for the Korea campaign are the only two custom missions I have found for SFP1. Naturally I am considering creating a few of my own. That is easier to do with the built-in editor in SF2 no doubt but I don't have it. Here is the mission: [MissionHeader] AircraftType=P-38H MissionMap=Solomons MissionType=INTERCEPT StartTime=07:30 StartDate=04/18/1943 [MissionData] FriendlyAirActivity=1 EnemyAirActivity=1 FriendlyAirDefenseActivity=2 EnemyAirDefenseActivity=2 PlayerMissionID=1 PlayerPositionID=1 MissionNumber=1234 AdjustStartPosition=TRUE AdjustBaseWaypoint=TRUE [Weather] WeatherType=CLEAR WeatherAlt= WeatherThickness= HasHighLayer= HighLayerAlt= FogAmount= ContrailAlt=3500 StartWindSpeed= StartWindDirection= WindGustingAmount= [AircraftMission001] AircraftType=P-38H Name=Anvil Alignment=FRIENDLY FormationType=WW2USFighter Heading=0 Position=754500.000000,337500.000000,0.000000 RandomChance=100 Size=12 Speed=0.

+JonathanRL Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 The target is set as a Recon Flight. Have you tried setting it as a Strike Flight? Quote
JollyRogerTwo Posted October 22, 2012 Author Posted October 22, 2012 JononathanRL: Thanks for responding. No, I haven't tried that. Since it is a "Friendly" intercept mission I didn't think it mattered what the "enemy" goal was. The Bettys have no target. I had considered giving the Bettys Henderson Field as a Recon target. I appreciate the tip. I'll give that strike idea a go. Quote
JollyRogerTwo Posted October 22, 2012 Author Posted October 22, 2012 OK, I made the changes from RECON to STRIKE and ran the revised mission. Instant failure of the mission once again. It comes to me there is no "objectiveID=" line for the Bettys as RECON or STRIKE. Could that be the problem?. Quote
