Folks!

Has anyone anything ready for tomorrow? I could host one of my Machine Match DF or maybe one of my Fall Of Burma COOP missions ... :?
If there should be some Jet related missions you want me to host just let me know ...

S'loot, folks! ^:)

Started some work on Pathfinderâ„¢ Campaign.
These are early missions of 139 sqn
12/05/1940: Maastricht-Tongres, NL and B
At dawn the British air commander sent off nine A.A.S.F. Blenheims of No. 139 Squadron to attack a column on the road from Maastricht to Tongres. Running into the swarms of fighters previously reported over the area, they lost all but two of their number—a disaster which ended the life of the A.A.S.F. Blenheims as a useful force before it had begun, for the other squadron (No. 114) had been virtually destroyed on its airfield the previous day.
2nd mission is based at Tuqa Jun '41, attacking shipping west of Malta and probably more balanced for an online session ;)

No brief written for the Malta mission yet (just shut FMB 20 mins ago)

basic mods =

Hsfx history mod
Atm_modv3.1 Wind,Turb & Prop
Hakenkruz Enabler
01_Zuti_DSMod_v1.01_UP

Sounds good Sneaky. Is the Malta mission with Blenheims too?

PS: Oh, and guess who our Blenheim skinner is. Sneaky, got time to do a few dozen skins before tomorrow?

Those are excellent BoB-ish skins. I have a good template from VPMedia with a Malta scheme.

In one download you get 38 campaigns (and two single missions), for a total of 487 missions and 323 skins . (All campaigns comes with skins. And without them, i.e. the efforts of all skinners, these campaigns would not have been made: thanks guys!) It is a pretty hefty download, though: 224 MB.

Image

Exactly WHAT Mod you need in each campaign is given in the "read-me-first"-document that you will find in the separate zips. There you can also find specific instructions and of course credits (not least to skinners!), installation notes, version history, skins etc.

See this as my BIG THANK YOU to the large IL-2 modding community - literally all around the globe - that has produced an amazing number of enhancements to this game. I never cease to be impressed by the skills and devotion showed by a number of key individuals: map makers, mod specialists, aircraft builders. You know who I mean. Thank YOU guys, you are the best!!!
