Air war Over Malaya and the East Indies Part 2

[skylane]

Hi guys,

I finally uploaded the second part of my Malaya/Singapore/Java campaign update.
I started updating the bomber missions, but eventually decided to make a new campaign out of them, focusing only on the Blenheim squadrons operating there.

Besides updating the already existing missions with new scenery, eyecandy like Cpt. Kurt´s airfield personnel and a few things I have learned about Mission Building in the time since I first published the original missions, i also went over my books again, and added several new missions that weren´t in the first package, for a total of 31 missions.

It runs on the setup of Part 1, so if you alreadfy have the fighter camaigns, all you need is to download and install one additional ship and you´re good to go.

Please note that these are bomber missions, so if you only enjoy dogfighting this may not be for you, but I tried to make the missions varied and interesting with a few surprises.

I just uploaded them now, so as soon as Rami approves them they can be downloaded.

Have fun!

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

Description: Welcome to the second part of my Malaya/East Indies campaign series. This campaign looks at the conflict from the view of a British Blenheim bomber pilot.

It takes you through the whole conflict, from the Japanese landings in Malaya, through the fall of Singapore, the defense of Sumatra up to the final days on Java, when the Dutch East Indies finally fell to the Japanese.

Skylane,

Very nice! It's always great to get to campaigns to look at and fly, especially in the Pacific! Thank you for all of your efforts.

Many thanks Skylane!

Skylane,

I'll wait for your response to Highpockets before I include the revised readme.

[skylane]

Highpockets, Readme files are obviously not my strength, I should have included the following from the start:

From the PHP scenery and the two ETO inf Packs you only need the objects. Copy the folders Objects_DP and SCENEDB -> inf into your install. Do not forget to delete the filelist.dat in your SCENEDB ->inf ->scenery folder.

Rami, let´s wait a few more days, if nothing else comes up I´ll post the updated readme after the next Weekend.

Thanks Skylane. I am working through your new missions. Enjoyed all the separate ones before--now looking forward to the new challenges.

What am I missing here?

error message says "Model cw-21b not found in the library"

Folder name= CW21B

air.cfg
fltsim.0]
title=Curtiss CW-21B Interceptor KNIL
sim=cw21B ; air file and dp file match sim=cw21B

Mission:

[highpockets]

aha-- saw it after posting here! Changed Air.Cfg title to match mission title.

What the hell is this?

The same thing was shown to me after I had followed all the installation steps.

Now I only followed Ramis Guide, so I only installed East Indian and New Japanese Airfields and LOD Meshes ect

Skylane,

Au contraire, mon frere...here is the updated Virtual Wings website: https://www.virtualwings.org/home/projects/hudson/

[skylane]

Ah, okay, it is still there! Anyway, since the Hudson that is needed for the campaign is also available here I´ll use this link in the updated readme.
If Highpockets didn´t find any additional issues I´ll post it here during the weekend.

i was having some issues with a couple of missions. Been away for a few days. Let me get back to it probably tomorrow. I will take a quick look tonight.

I am having issues to get the KI -43 59th and 64th aircraft to initialize either with British missions or Japanese missions. Maybe someone can give me a tip. Apparently there are issues in my a/c folder. I tried twice to follow your instructions and i am missing something. I always have problems in my brain as to what is supposed to match what. I will try again. I have not tried to fly ALL the missions in the install.

[skylane]

Highpockets,

so sorry, my mistake again... The texture name in the Aircraft Config doesn´t match with the Name of the texture folder.
Put the two Aircraft Configs in the attachment into the two Ki-43 Folders, overwriting the original files, and the planes should work.

Rami, would it be possible to insert these two files into the campaign download?

[Rami]

Skylane,

Done, but you may want to add a note about this in the readme. I placed the .cfg files in a new folder, "AIRCRAFT."
