A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category CFS 2 Campaigns Add-Ons

Description: This package was updated on 25 October, 2015 to correct missing ship folders and to add corrected .dp files by Pen32Win, and again on 28 March, 2016 to include updated ships and aircraft.

Welcome to the Western Desert, 1942 campaign package! This is a series of fifty-five missions in three separate campaigns that center around the experiences of Western Desert forces in Tunisia, Libya, and Egypt during the Winter and Spring of 1942, with the German campaign extending through their initial retreat from El Alamein. All of the missions are historically plausible, and are based on events that happened during that time period.

This campaign is a complete overhaul of a much older Groundcrew version, originally created by Cliff Burgess. The scenery has been thoroughly modified & updated to utilize the fantastic North African airfields created by Achim27619, as well as custom GSL port facilities at Alexandria, Tobruk, Derna, Benghazi, and Tripoli, along with various fortifications in the desert theatre; this includes the fortress at Bir Hacheim.

All the aircraft included in this package are the most modernized available. Additionally, some of the missions are now very dynamic, and all of the missions feature improved triggers and events, resulting in a much more enjoyable experience

In this second package, you'll find most of the multi-engined aircraft, gauges, aircraft sounds, and weapons required for the campaign. Nearly all of the required aircraft have been included, as well as any historical repaints that would have been used during/near the time that Western Desert forces and the Axis forces were fighting their seesaw battles across North Africa. Those whose work has been included in this first package include The B24 Guy, Graham, (VB planes) Oldwheat, Pcmeneg, the Groundcrew team, the FDGv2 team, Brunosk, Isoliti4gatti, Bismarck13, Captain Kurt, Thicko, Morton, Lawdog2360, RobH, Obio, the Virtual Wings team, Sopwith Chameleon, Rockster, MoparMike, the Alphasim freeware team, Kelticheart, Gius, and Dbolt.

All of the aircraft in this package have been modified, when necessary, to include the appropriate repaints, when possible, for the aircraft. I've also included modified .dp files for each aircraft which correct information in the [MISC.DATA] section that I found to be in error. To lessen issues with frame rates with many waves of aircraft in the sky, all exhaust effects have been removed, if they were included in the original models.

Additionally, all weapons required for the aircraft have been included.
