OK, I'm gonna show my ignorance here - where do you put these missions (Fighter Boys and FB 2)? I figured they would go into the ....1946\Missions\Single\GB. Guess not. I tried that but no luck. Can you give me some guidance?
Thank you for any help.
I'm shocked actually!! With Canon's HUGE Map, it somehow works smoothly! Both FB missions run smooth as silk on my "old" Rig:
Dual core E6700 Cpu
2GB OCZ PC2 8800 (1100Mhz) RAM
BFG 8800GTX w/768MB Graphics card
Windows VISTA 32bit
Great Missions! Looking forward to the Campaign!
For Bob Holmes: Yes, just put the two FB Mission folders into the "...\Missions\Single\GB" folder
Yeah, map takes ages to load in FMB but the missions play like a dream with no frame rate drops at all and thats all I care about. Imagine having all these buildings and ground detail and not being able to go anywhere near them because of slow down...

I am now working on a RAF Battle of Britain campaign for the 1940-41 version of the map, and below you can find a link where you can download one mission from that campaign:

Thanks Doolittle. That was my mistake. I just put the two files, missions and properties there after I unpacked it. Didn't work of course.
Well, now let me revisit my last post. Went back and looked at what I had done, and I had put the two folders where you said to put them.
But now, my question. When I go into the game, go to single missions and RAF, what is that mission called? I don't see anything that would look like it.
See, told you my ignorance was showing.
Thanks.
Gonna try it out soon.
Fabian, how do you change the spit type? (as in, from1 to 1b to use in the mission?) :wink:
Yeah but.....these are zip files, and have to be unzipped, don't they? When I unzip them (I always do it into a temporary folder first before installation), I just end up with the two files, mission and properties. Don't see a "folder". What am I doing/interpreting wrong?
I mentioned my ignorance, but please keep in mind also that I'm 67 yrs old, and much of this stuff is starting to get really hard, for me anyway.
Thanks for your patience and help.
Poltava,
Thanks for your efforts.
Flew your first mission last night. As others have, I noticed a real long time loading the map. Once I got into the mission however, things worked fine, good frame rates, smooth.
I enjoyed the mission a great deal. Fantastic to finally duel with Me 109's with Cannons great map and the cliffs of Dover in the background. Keep up the good work. I am looking forward to your campaign.
