[Mission_bug]

Hello again Kirby, glad you managed to install the necessary mods to play this campaign, two of you now seem to have it up and running with no problems! That's a relief. This is not the first campaign I've made but providing the images for the skinmod and making an intro and epilogue video was uncharted territory, did the intro play ok? I ask because I had a poroblem with it at one stage, basically the lead aircraft was wearing the Finnish default skin, very strange, even though it was shot in Thai markings and played as such until I added it to my other modded version of il-2. I cured that by making sure there were no Finnish defaults in the skinmod, I would have thought that the video would have portrayed what I originally shot! You're always learning new things with this sim. Fabianfred, how is it possible that the Thai sim community wasn't aware of your superb map? Have they been off planet for months? Had heads burried in the sand? With regard to the speech folder, you say it is set for English as the Thai default yet when I loaded the first mission I got Russian, but all Thai aircraft in the campaign were set as Thai. Could it be there is something not quite set up right with my version of il-2? These were the reasons I didn't try to have an automatic installer, firstly I wouldn't have a clue how to set that up, but more importantly it gives the individual the chance to set up the campaign as they see fit. As for the aircraft insignia I have followed what information is generaly available, which isn't much, but the other skinners have set their markings as I have so not sure on this one Fabianfred. With a bit of luck someone may publish a book dedicated to this period of Thai aviation, preferably with english captions and good images of the aircraft showing both marking positions and codes, until then I will have to live with my skins as they are. Seeing as you are both Thai residents maybe you could point me in the direction of such literature if it is or becomes available.

This is a copy of the Axis decal sheet for Thai aircraft which was one of several references used.



Thanks to both of you for the feedback so far, is there anything you dislike about it from what you've played so far? Are the missions set up right? Do you think it could do with more objects etc. to aid immersion or are you quite happy with it as is, bearing in mind that not everyone will have a machine able to deal with the amount of information already in this large map.


Again wishing you both the very best.

Regards, Pete.
