    Hello! I'm still alive and well, but veeeery busy with real life stuff (I work as a nurse in a Madrid hospital and this year is very "interesting"). I'm very sad to read about your health problems, and very happy to read you are doing well now, my friend.

    About the shadow, it's the same setting I found in Peter01's Hansa-Brandenburg FM (basically the same plane with different engine). Maybe he was trying to save some framerate, I don't Know. About the ammo, I really don't know, as I have no info about that. Again it's based in the old Hansa-Brandenburg DI we had.

    Surely VonS has better data about it.

    Armchair Aces over Italy

    Welcome WWI buffs! This is a mammoth compilation of a series covering the (mostly) complete air war in Italian Front in WWI. 

    The entire war is divided in mini-campaigns of a month-10 missions. I'm using the shockingly beautiful CaporettoV2 map by Gterl. You'll have about 25 mini-campaigns and 250 missions per pilot!

    The beauty of this approach is that you can simulate unit transfers for your pilot. You can start as a two seater pilot (as most Austro-Hungarians did), and then be "transferred" to a fighter unit. 

    This mod is intended for FE2. FE1 pilots will need to edit the campaigns to fly them, for example changing the name of the planes like AlbatrosD5_170 to AlbatrosD5 or something like that....Please, don't ask me for a FE1 version. I'm doing 117 campaigns for the entire series and it's a lot of work!!!! Nevertheless, if someone want to make an FE1 version it has my agreement (if it's free for the people, of course).

    So, be ready for a downloading fest.

    Before installing this mod it's better you have an Italy only install for your FE2

    No german Jastas in the East Front. The german and austrian fighters were attached to the two-seater units in small quantities. In 07/01/17 Jadgflieger Ober-Ost was formed (basically an ad-hoc fighter unit with planes from the two seater units, similar to the KEKs of Western Front in 1915-16). This unit moved out the Galician front in August and came back in September, It became Jasta 81 in October 1917, the only Jasta in the entire Eastern Front.

    Nope. I'll explain the dummy gun:

     

    In the stock game you have some planes with a gunner. They have also a front fixed gun, but if a fighter attacks them, usually they try to flee (or fight with the front gun if ordered). Meanwhile, te tail gunner fires....

     

    Then there are some new planes with only a front gunner. But the AI keep on the same way. So, these planes are fleeing away, but the AI gunner doesn't fire at the enemy planes, because he's a front gunner and not a tail gunner. Wrong tactics.

     

    So I made a faux front gun managed by the pilot. This way, the pilot will try to attack with it's front gun, and this will keep the enemy plane in the aim of your gunner. Of course, the gunner mill make all the real damage in the enemy plane.

     

    The debrieffing statistics doesn't include the gunners. This was a fighter sim without two seater flyable fighters at the start...
