Time without see something about SC. Someone know somenthing?

I uploaded some new menu button sounds for CFS2, use them if you like them! :salute:

Misson, Sólo quería hacerle saber que no me he olvidado de hacer la parte del eje de pedestal. No puedo decir que voy a trabajar en este proyecto a una velocidad vertiginosa, pero la operación Mezzagosto está en marcha, y estoy usando las misiones pedestal como una base para "dar la vuelta" y convertirlos en misiones Axis-temáticas. La primera es una Vichy reconnoitre francesa del convoy justo después de entrar en el Mediterráneo ... Yo no quiero darte algo demasiado difícil para empezar, ¿sabes? In English... I just wanted to let you know that I haven't forgotten about doing the Axis side to Pedestal. I can't say I will work on this project at breakneck speed, but Operation Mezzagosto is underway, and I am using the Pedestal missions as a base to "flip" them and turn them into Axis-themed missions. The first is a Vichy French reconnoitre of the convoy just after it enters the Mediterranean...I didn't want to give you something too difficult to start, you know? "title_string" = Funcionamiento Mezzagosto - Intrus dans la Méditerranée! "summary_string" = Ecoutez, les pilotes français! Un enorme convoy aliado ha entrado en el Mediterráneo, y es nuestra tarea para analizar la composición de este convoy y pasar la información a nuestros amigos alemanes e italiano cerca de Cerdeña y Sicilia. El convoy no está a su alcance por el momento. Las operaciones de combate pueden depender de la inteligencia, así que vamos a conseguir es correcta la primera vez!

A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category CFS 2 Aircraft - German Description: Focke-Wulf FW 189 Uhu for CFS2 by: William Dickens Called the "Flying Eye" of the German army, the Fw 189 succeeded on the Eastern Front beyond the most optimistic predictions. Its superb handling and agility made it a very difficult and elusive target for enemy fighters. Its phenomenal toughness was demonstrated by Fw 189s returning to bases safely with one tail shot or torn off by Soviet ramming attacks.

A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category CFS 2 Aircraft - German Description: Ju290-A7 Seeadler for CFS2 by: William Dickens When the Ju 290 replaced the Fw 200 as the Luftwaffe long-range maritime reconnaissance aircraft in the autumn of 1943, the crews were given a far more capable aircraft than the old Focke-Wulf Fw 200 Condor. But only 65 Ju 290s were built, and the total number of aircraft available was never higher than about 20. Credits: The model is made by William Dickens The dp is by William Dickens

A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category CFS 2 Aircraft - Other Description: Vultee Vengeance for CFS2 by: William Dickens The Vultee Vengeance was a dive-bomber designed for the RAF, who at the time were impressed with a need for dive-bombers following the early achievements of the German Stuka. The RAAF followed the lead of the RAF, receiving 342 aircraft from 1942, but cancelling the order for a further 58 aircraft in 1944.This aircraft was built in the USA but served in the combat role with the RAF and Indian Air Force in Burma, with the French air force in North Africa and with the Royal Australian Air Force in the Pacific. Developed primarily in response to British interest, Vultee developed a two-seat dive bomber in 1940 which was to become known as the Vengeance. The British Purchasing Commission placed an initial order for 200 aircraft from Vultee along with a further 200 aircraft to be built under license by Northrop. Additional orders then followed. Few of these aircraft actually reached Britain however with almost the entire order being diverted to the Far East for use by RAF, RAAF or Indian Air Force squadrons. A number of aircraft were also retained by the USAAF. In RAF service, Vengeance were operationally employed to good effect in the Burma theatre. As the war progressed, the RAF transferred some Vengeance aircraft to the Fleet Air Arm for use as target tugs. Additionally, some aircraft were used by the RAF in smoke-laying operations. Credits:

A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category CFS 2 Aircraft - German Description: Arado Ar232B-0 for CFS2 by: William Dickens The Ar 232 "Tausendfussler" was designed to replace the venerable Ju 52 transport. However, only about 20 Ar 232s were actually built. The prototype was a twin engine model, but the only production version, the Ar 232B-0, mounted four BMW radials. These aircraft were used irregularly during the war. Credits: Aircraft:

A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category CFS 2 Aircraft - France Description: Amiot 143 for CFS2 by: William Dickens The first flight of the Amiot 143 was made in August 1934. It was an all-metal cantilever high-wing monoplane with an enclosed pilot's cockpit, manually operated nose and dorsal gun turrets and a large glazed ventral 'balcony' housing the bomb-aimer's position forward and the ventral gunner's position at the rear. The large fixed divided-type undercarriage had wheel spats. The first batch of 50 aircraft was delivered in the winter of 1935-6 to Escadres GB 1/22 and GB 11/22 at Chartres; from aircraft number 31 the fuselage was slightly lengthened. Total production amounted to 138 aircraft. Normal bomb load was 900kg. In August 1939 91 Amiot 143s were still in service with first-line Escadres, 29 with training units and six in storage. Up to 10 May French night raiders had been carrying only leaflets, but from then on until the French surrender Amiot 143s dropped a total of 528 tonnes of bombs in night raids. However, Amiot 143s are best remembered for their heroic mission of 14 May 1940 when, with fighter escort, they attacked the heavily defended bridges at Sedan during daylight hours. The aircraft of the 34å and 38å Escadres bombed from an altitude of 800m. Four aircraft were lost in action and all the rest seriously damaged. Amiot 143s were subsequently used for transport and training duties by the Vichy French, except for a few impressed by the Germans. Credits: Aircraft:

A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category CFS 2 Aircraft - France Description: Bloch MB210 for CFS2 Original CFS1 Model by Alain Breton Modified for CFS2 by William Dickens. About the CFS2 Model: This aircraft is an update of Alain Breton's beautiful CFS1 model. Most of the aircraft reamins unchanged from the original. What has been added are detailed engines, crew members, new landing gear and gear wells, some "eye candy" like air scoops and exhaust. The model also has breaking parts and a first for a "WD" release: a Virtual Cockpit with working gauges! The real aircraft: The Bloch 210.01 prototype flew for the first time in June 1934. It was intended as a twin-float seaplane bomber for the French Navy. A second prototype was designated Bloch 211 N°1 Verdun. Following tests, the production version was ordered as the Bloch 210. A cantilever low-wing monoplane which retained the angular lines of the high-wing Bloch 200, the Bloch 210 was powered by two 678kW Gnome-Rhone 14N engines and had a retractable landing gear, the main units of which retracted into the engine nacelles. Armament comprised single 7.5mm MAC machine-guns in a nose turret and semi-retractable dorsal and ventral positions. Maximum bomb load was 1,730kg. The first production machine flew on 10 December 1935. A total of 283 were eventually built for the Armee de l'Air, with which they served in the BN5 (five-crew night bomber) category. Final deliveries to the air force were made in February 1939, by which time the aircraft was obsolete.

A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category CFS 2 Aircraft - British Description: File ID: Bristol Bombay for CFS2 by: William Dickens The Bombay was built to the Air Ministry Specification C.26/31 for a monoplane aircraft which could carry bombs or 24 troops. Despite the all-metal construction, the Bombay retained some features which were outdated at the time, such as its fixed undercarriage. Outclassed for the European theatre, it saw service in the Middle East, replacing the Vickers Valentia. Credits: The model, dp and textures are by William Dickens

Hey guys, I finally have the intelligence I needed to fix the Junkers Ju-88A-4 and A-11 series aircraft's fuel capacity. I have included files for the A-11, the desert model, since I think I will finish up Mezzagosto before going back to the Balkans project. This same fuel load can be used for the A-4 model using AirEd. The Ju-88 has a tendency to "eat" fuel, so I did some research with the help of my kamaraden at the Axis History Forum. http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=197853&p=1792222#p1792222 Not only did the Ju-88 have a 1,220 liter optional tank in the front bay, she also had a 680 liter optional tank in the rear bay. With this configuration of both fuselage tanks, the Ju-88 finally has the "legs" to fly a long-range reconnaissance over the Pedestal convoy from Sardinia.
