Yep, I use Jonesoft too. And have segmented out the stock A/C data.inis. Will D/L tonight and get back into this sim. :yes:

Great stuff - will be looking for the D/L.

...my long spell away is at an end. :yes: First it was a hard drive - thankfully I was able to recover the important FE stuff. Then it was the mobo and a fried video card. But...I came out of it with a larger HD and a better vid card - an NVidia 8600 GTS. So...back to FE - which looks awesome - and the great group here.

Do it NOW!! :yes:

Thanks for the info. I am installing tonight.

...but I am mightily confused by the file structure here. What do ya do - just dump it into the Spad VII 180hp a/c folder as is? Or is that just too simplistic?

Peter: Nice job, as always.

Lifetime would be the network - as this was trauma baby! I was going thru withdrawls.

Excellent skins.

GREAT Work!!

Happy Holidays all!

GREAT job!!

Excellent!!!!

Testing campaign mods for Jasta 13 - Starting out w/ the Fokker DrI - have added the following code: Upgrade=FIXED Upgrade[01].Date=07/14/1918 Upgrade[01].Type=FokkerD7 Upgrade[01].Texture=Jasta13 KnownAce[01].LastName=Buchner KnownAce[01].FirstName=Franz KnownAce[01].RankID=2 KnownAce[01].NumMissions=10 KnownAce[01].AirKills=2 KnownAce[01].AircraftNumber=999 KnownAce[01].Texture=Jasta13_Buchner - Half the time I get no upgrade - I guess they are not guaranteed, huh? - The other half I get the Pfalz D3 - which isn't even listed - What am I missing here? Thanks.

Thank you SOOOOO much!

Firecage: Thankws for the response. I checked the code this morning and all looks to be coded correctly. I would love a second opinion tho' as I DO want this stuff to work. Can I send you the files? Thanks.

Did a search and found a message posted by Firecage that indicated you may get a downgrade if the supply lines were not opened up. And I found another message that listed out definitions for the code pertaining to Supply in the Campaign_DATA file. So...I adjusted all of those Supply lines to MAX out the supply in hopes of generating a (somewhat) realistic upgrade result. No dice. Still got an Alb DIII (or a DV) and I never got my DVII. OK - I am done here w/ this Upgrade code - it is BROKEN!! My plan now is to go back to the two Expansion Campaigns and kill the upgrade codes I added and revise any Ace texture coding to match the starting a/c (which is a shame as now we cannot take advantage of many of the custome skins produced by the community. Then I will tackle the two original Campaigns by correcting starting a/c and addig Aces. At that point I will release here on Combat Ace for anyone who is interested.

OK - bumped - and did more testing. My code format appears to be right - yes??? And what really pi$$es me off is that a quarter of the time I get an "upgrade" to an Alb DIII! Yea, some upgrade. Me now thinks that it has somethint to do w/ all of those Supply code lines for each side at the begining of the campaign_DATA files. I need help on this one !!!! Anybody? Beuller? Thanks.

Thank you, thank you.

Perfect!!!

When I fly IL-2 I am a good marksman - a better shot than a pilot even. In this sim I find myself spraying and praying more often than not as I am not sure what spot the bullets are traveling to. Anyone have some advice, specifically for the DV/Va and the DVIIs?? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Good stuff. Thanks!!

Tail is great w/ the Lozenge and the S/N. Looks real good.

Excellent work!! Looks just like the Osprey book profile.

Yep, I say put 'em out there too!
