Hello Olham, Here`s a picture for you of Chateau Marckebecke. I'm not 100 % sure but i think the HQ wasn't in the Chateau but in a House in Markebekestraat. I visited the place last Year in May and talked to the baroness and the baron bethune. Very nice people. On my Tour last year i've visited all aerodromes of MvR (Jasta2 and Jasta11). I own the book "in the footsteps ..." and it helped me to plan my Tour. It's worth to buy. I've made too a HD film of the Jasta11 aerodromes and some pictures. PM me your e-mail and we can get in touch. Grüße aus Mannheim. vschoell

Hello gentlemen, Has anyone the same problem with the medals ? the medal picture don't show. So i only see a red empty box. (at the moment i have the woundbadge and the EK2) vschoell

Hello gentlemen, I'm very new for First eagles 2 (downloaded yesterday)and i'm on the search for all of this wonderful made mods. So i have some questions cause i can't find sometimes the pathes and directions and so on. (be nice with me cause i'm new ) 1.) for example i've downloaded the new terrain (17.Feb 2010). But i can't find a "terrain" folder. There's just a "terrains" folder in thirdwire\firsteagles2\ Where do i have to put the extracted zip. I've copied it now in the firsteagles2\ directory but nothing happens. 2.) I've downloaded some new aircrafts (Alb. DI., Fokker E.I-III) I can't hear any engine sound. 3.) I've doawnloaded the "Guitarclassic55's Replacement Menu Screens" copied all in Menu and Flight. Nothing happened. The old screens displayed. Which mods can i use with firsteagles2 ? is there a difference ? Sorry for the stupid questions but i really don't know anything about FE2. vschoell

Thank you Jim ! a pleasure to be with you here ! vschoell

FOKKER DI-III

Hello, I've got a little problem with some of the ace dossiers. Voss,Werner and Wolff,Kurt shows no kills in the ace dossiers. Always "0". The date is far away from their first kills noted in the XXKill.txt. Perhaps there are more with "0" but i've flying in Jasta11 so i can't see others than the Wolff problem in the moment. The Voss problem I've seen sometime before. Does anyone else has the same problem? greetings vschoell

Hi Morris, really great ideas! I would like to see this ideas. I think the manager could represent a little more the Squadron life, like 1.) aircraft managing: for example: squadron Jasta2 has 2 Alb.D II 3 Alb D.I and 6 Halberstadt. If a craft is damaged it takes some time to get repaired. If it's destroyed it would be filled up with a not so good one. The Squadron leader arrange the crafts to the pilots in the actually mission. If you are an ace you can get a personal craft. 2.) Transfers should be possible perhaps with fillig a form like the Kill Form. But if you are an ace you get invitations form squadron leaders like: Werner Voss invites you to join Jasta10.... 3.) Pilots in the squadron should all have a personal dossier with random pictures from a picture pool. (like in RBII) 4.) There should be a squadron dossier. (like in RBII) 5.) More statistiks like monthly kill rates (Squadron and Top aces like in RBII)This could be made perhaps as monthly "Squadron News" or "Heeresbericht" 6.) Intelligence Service: Informations about friendly and enemy squadrons in your operating area and Enemy Aces ... 7.) If a AI pilot shoots down a enemy in a mission it should be documented and count as kill in the Kill board. (in the moment its random) So in the next step also AI pilots could be an ace with 5 or more kills. That would be great too. vschoell

Hello, Weekly and Dietz are my favorites, Here's my favorite from Weekly. http://www.barryweekleyart.com vschoell

Hi Creaghorn, great job. I like the menue music very much. Same as your news... they are great and so much work. "Dankeschön" for that. vschoell

the copy thing is clear, but Ahm, where is the bhah folder ? I've putted the two files in c:\obd\CFSWW1 Over Flanders Fields. vschoell

Hi Creaghorn, where do i have to put these 2 Files ? c:\CFSWW1 Over Flanders Fields\... ? put it there but till now no effect. Shift+F12 inflight changes nothing. vschoell

Hello, i've started a carreer in April 1917 with No 59 Sqn and saw that the Se5a's have 4 propeller blades. Is that correct cause i think the 4 propeller blade Se5a came much later in Autumn 1917. The pictures in the book aviation elite units (No 56 Sqn) shows too, that they had only two blades. I think the 56 Sqn started with a Se5 and in Summer came the Se5a. Later in Autumn the 4 blade version. What is correct ? vschoell

Yes !! historic accurate airfields ! Just finished my research with google earth and aerodromes v.Richthofen visits. Great look and feeling, cause some are with streetview, so you can look directly as you stand in it. Example Roucourt. It would be very nice to see the churchtower and the town in the back and the famous wood on the left. vschoell

Hello, I need an advice from someone who knows the effect file in OFF. I want to make the smoke of an crashed craft and shot craft thicker. I can't find the lines in Effect.xml which effect this. Can someone help ? vschoell

Hello Pol, Yes, Sure, all sliders on 5. vschoell

Hello, is there a chance to get a Fokker DII and Fokker DIII ? It's surely not the famous craft but some of the early aces flew this one often. (Boelcke). I'm a fan from the first days in WW1 so i miss this one. vschoell

Thanks sitting_duck, but which wheel do i have to turn to get the smoke thicker ? vschoell

Thanks Mark, love the parasol too, please keep on it, but what's about the Fokker DII and DIII ? Anyone started this craft ? vschoell

Hello, There are some things i miss in OFF (not much but there are some) . Perhaps this can be some ideas for the next patch ? 1.) A monthly Kill statistic per country (as button, perhaps TOP 10 Scoring Pilots) in October 1916 for example the statistic comes for the last month, like: TOP-Scoring Pilots by September 1916 10 Hptm. Oswald Boelcke Jasta 2 3 Ltn. Kurt Wintgens Jasta 1 3 Ltn. Albert Dossembach FA22 in November comes: TOP-Scoring Pilots by Month: October 1916 11 Hptm. Oswald Boelcke Jasta 2 5 Ltn. Hans Berr Jasta 5 4 Oblt. Stefan Kirmaier Jasta 2 and so on .... 2.) The scoring board "Aces of the great war". like above there should be a scoringboard that actually shows the Top 10 leading aces of the great war. (All countries) 2.1) The scoring board "Top Ten Aces Month" for each country: for example January 1917 1. Hauptm. Oswald Boelcke Jasta 2 "40" KIA 28 Oct 1916 2. Lt. Kurt Wintgens Jasta 1 "19" KIA 26 Sep 1916 3. Olt. Max Immelmann FA62 "15" KIA 18 Jun 1916 3. Lt. Wilhelm Frankl Jasta 4 "15" Flanders, "airodrome" 3. Lt. Hans Butt Jasta 12 "15" Flanders, "airodrome" (Player) 3. Lt. Manfred von Richthofen Jasta 11 "15" Flanders, "airodrome" 7. Olt. Hans J. Buddecke Jasta 4 "12" Flanders, "airodrome" and so on .... 3.) For the Aces too, there should be a system for promotion. For example MvR beginns at Lt. in 1916 and went to Hauptm. (Rittmeister) in the following month. 4.) a map with all the actually operating Squadrons are highlighted. (perhaps per button "german" "british" "france" "all") 5.) Squadron transfer should be possible : Like the Kill-Form there can be an Transfer Form. to be continued ..... vschoell

Hallo Creaghorn, Super Leistung. Ich weiß wieviel Arbeit das war. Ich habe damals für Phase 2 auch schonmal News erstellt. Als erstes schicke ich dir meine Quellen von damals: http://www.stahlgewitter.com/17_01_00.htm (aufs Datum klicken) Dort hast du Tagesmeldungen des kompletten ersten WK. http://diglit.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/diglit/feldztg10armee1916bis1917/0001?sid=32ea00b8fa2fc09f20deb94b860c2b7a (Zeitungsscans von damals) http://www.firstworldwar.com/onthisday/january.htm (Tagesmeldungen in Englisch) Bei Interesse schicke ich dir gerne meine alten News Texte 1916, 1917 und 1918 von Phase 2 , vielleicht kannst du die noch einbauen, wenn du Lust hast. Teile mir dazu am besten per PM deine Mailadresse mit. Bilder hatte ich ebenfalls erstellt. (Die würde ich dir dann auch gepackt schicken) Mit deinen Texten ergeben beide eventuell die komplettesten Zeitungsmeldungen. Grüße vschoell

Hello Gents, in Oktober i will buy a new system with Windows 7 (64bit). Does anyone know if OFF will run on Windows 7 (64bit) ? Anyone experienced with it ? vschoell

Hello, just landed at the new forum aerodrome .... vschoell
