It may just be me, but the latest version 4.2 is not adding squadron skins for me. I went back to 4.1 and it works. Put in 4.2 and it it's not adding the squad skin to the mission file

Thanks Pat and Gremlin

I've just tried out the latest version and have run into a problem. I started a Camel campaign to see how far I can go before dying and flew the first mission. Almost didn't make it and crash landed in the no man's land area. Recorded the results and generated a new mission. When I go to fly that mission it starts to load and then goes back to the main screen. Any ideas what I may have done wrong? Thanks.

Never mind. I guess my mission was corrupted some how as I ended up generating another one and it was fine. But it has lead me to ask another question. Is there any way to set the maximum distance range for a mission? I ask this because I have limited time to fly and I just flew that last mission, 75% of it was on 8x time compression, and it took me over 80 min. to fly. The bummer was I had no contacts the whole time. I've looked in the configuration and in a couple of files but see nothing that looks like what I'm looking for. Is there a way to tweak this? I'm sorry if this has already been asked but I did a search and came up empty. Thanks!

+1. Pat, this is a great thing you have created. It would be a wonderful addition if we could modify our mission lengths like in the career mode.

Thanks, T

I'll take that to mean there is currently no way to do this, too bad. Yes, Pat, great utility you've made for us here and if this is possible to add I for one would really love to see it! Thanks for your efforts on our behalf. S!

A possible solution could be listing the aerodrome's in a closest to farthest from the front lines order.

I can try but it will not be easy. Mission length is already taken into consideration with an eye towards keeping it down.

I would like to see Neoqb fix time compression. Time compression in RoF is hosed - 8x is more like 1.5x. If 8x were really 8x then IMHO mission lenghts wouldn't be an issue.

I would appreciate what ever you might be able to do in this regard. Don't kill yourself over it though. I would hate for you to get burnt out doing all this goodness for the community!



I thought it was just me that was feeling it was still on the "slow" side for 8x TC... guess my old brain isn't as feeble as I thought!

It's a question of CPU. The better CPU you have the better time acceleration works.
With my old c2d it was 2x, 2,5x and 2,5x now with my i7 920 it's 2x, 4x, and 6x (with a lot more planes in the air than before)

Those who have trouble with time acceleration I suggest you set a maximum number of planes. The less planes you have the faster the time acceleration is.

4 days til the end of the war, then I'll download 4.4

PAt, the war doesn't seem to end! It's the 18th and the Huns are still fighting!

error report: Vert Galant airfield is not populated, there are no tents or anything (my home base with 56 sqn)

Now that I have newspapers I'll find a nice Armistice declared papers ... oh, and stop assigning missions too.

Great! Can you have a look at the Vert Galant bug?

Is it possible to include the pilot roster in the briefing? It would add to the immersion IMO.

I have that listed as a bug. Thanks for reporting it.

Quick question to anyone in the know. I just flew a mission I created a few days ago (finally had some time to do so) and we were doing an offensive sweep. Crossing no man's land two Albatros Vs attacked us. I ended up shooting both down and my leader either crashed or was shot down (I was too busy fighting to see what happened to him). I then saw a balloon nearby guarded by 4 more Albatros Vs and did a quick dive to destroy the balloon and head for home. I made it and had (finally!) a perfect landing, okay, bounced once but then landed just fine. I ended the mission and the game gave me credit for all my kills but said I crashed...?? So I exit out of the game to enter in the data and when I clicked on combat report it asked if I actually flew the mission!? Is this because it was listed as a defeat as I didn't complete the entire flight path/waypoints? Do I actually have to fly the entire route to be able to enter in data? What did I do wrong this time? Thanks for any info anyone can give!

Avatar, the application works totally separately from the game. You can enter what you want, it's ap to you. For example I never claim as many kills as I get on the debriefing screen. I only claim the ones I could have confirmed historically. Ddin't you delete the mission before trying to write a combat report?
