Hi USAFMTL, I can share some documentation with you (orders of battle, squadron markings...) and some files that I included in my mod (e.g. decal.ini files for Arabic markings). Other than that, I have a bit of experience with building a campaign on Gepard's Israel terrain. Maybe you could help me by sharing some of your knowledge to fix some issues with my campaigns - like how to increase enemy A2A activity. Cheers

A quick report on what is to come: First of all, I will update all three campaigns for Gepard's Israel v2.1 terrain. Apart from a bug fix in the 6 Days War campaign (that caused the campaign to end prematurely), this update will include no other changes to the current campaigns. The work is almost done, so expect a release soon. After this, I will be reworking all three campaigns seperately. What I have planned so far: - Suez: increase A2A activity during ground attack missions, balance victory conditions, add new squadrons (flyable + AI), add more ships to carrier groups - 6 Days War: increase A2A activity during ground attack missions, balance victory conditions - Yom Kippur: increase A2A activity during ground attack missions, balance victory conditions If you find bugs or have any suggestions for improvement, please post them here. Greetings, Johan217 / EAF274 Johan

Good work. Just one question: is it possible to show the player's squadron instead of the aircraft type? It's a minor annoyance, not with your briefing screens in particular, it also happens in the default briefing screens.

Could something else be causing the problem? I have changed the campaign to use only two forces, and it still happens! I have double checked that I set Intelligence=100 for all ground units and the target location has a valid date of appearance. All strategic nodes seem to be linked to the correct coordinates. Is anyone having a similar problem?

Thanks again!

I am editing a few campaigns and I need some help with defining the victory conditions for each side. I have figured out how to use the strategic nodes to direct ground offensives on the map. But how do I set the "ultimate" objective? Let's say I want the campaign to end if side A takes Jerusalem or side B takes Cairo. Do I need to direct all strategic nodes to Jerusalem and Cairo? Can I set secondary goals? Any help would be very appreciated!

Yes, I have about 5 forces defined in the campaign. I had to do this to make the ground offensives appear where I wanted. Thanks Aggie

Here's a problem I have run across while making my Suez/1967/Yom Kippur campaigns. Sometimes, a ground unit completely disappears from the map after a successful offensive. The frontline has changed, but the unit is gone. It happens even when there are no enemy units near, so the friendly unit can't have been wiped out by enemy fire. I have checked the strategic nodes and the place is still connected to other objectives. It happens on Gepard's Israel terrain (v1.5 and 2.1), but I assume it may happen on other maps too. Any ideas?

I would like it too. Would have been nice in my Suez campaign.

Some time ago I thought of updating WolfmanDK's Yom Kippur campaign to use Gepard's Israel terrain. I ended up creating three campaigns... I hope you will enjoy them :) Download here I will also upload it to the Combatace file library later. Suez Crisis '56 Flyable nations: Israel, Egypt, Syria, RAF, Royal Navy, French Air Force, French Aéronavale Flyable Aircraft: P-51, Meteor, F-84F, DH Vampire, DH Venom, Hawker Hunter, F-4-7U Corsair, SeaHawk, MiG-15 Special features: carrier operations, clandestine French air unit under Israeli markings, Cyprus airbase (AI only) 6 Days War '67 Flyable nations: Israel, Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Iraq Flyable Aircraft: Mirage III, MD-450 Ouragan, Mystère IV, Meteor, Hawker Hunter, MiG-17, MiG-19, MiG-21, Su-7 Special features: US Navy aircraft protecting the USS Liberty may be entering the scene Yom Kippur War '73 Flyable nations: Israel, Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Iraq Flyable Aircraft: Mirage III, IAI Nesher, F-4E, A-4E, A-4F, Mystère IV, F-104A, Hawker Hunter, MiG-17, MiG-21, Su-7 I have tested it with WOV, but it should work fine with SFP1. I don't know about WOE though. Aircraft and skins are not included in this package, except a few that I made myself. Download links are included in the readme. I do not really intend to update this package, but if there is enough interest, who knows... F-84F Thunderstreak of EC.1/1 'Corse', Israeli markings, Suez 1956

Belgium: - Hawker Hunter Mk6, 7th Wing, Chièvres AB - F-84F Thunderstreak, 10th FBW, Kleine Brogel AB

SP4 includes the necessary 3D model files for the C-130, IL-28 and TU-22, so they can easily be activated in WOV... All you need to do is create a directory for them and write the ini file. Then just find a skin for them to download and you're done :) And I think SP4 also included all the necessary decals. They seem to show up correctly in my WOV anyway...
