homepage Forums Air Combat & Civil Aviation IL-2: FB, AEP, PF MOD: The "Other" Channel Map

How do I access coops missions??

@CKY,

The objects your system is missing are part of LAL_Rone's Hangar Mod from 2008. They are included in HSFX/UP. If you don't have them, check with AAA.

In your game, start a multiplayer session by clicking the Multiplay button, click Create new Server, click the down arrow on the "Game Type" selection box, select Cooperative, then choose the folder where the missions are stored. Select the mission you want to fly. That should get you where you need to be.

Cheers Persecutor

You comfirmed a hunch I had all day.

The map is amazing in so many ways. I had a quick flight from Manston to Eastchurch, and then to Detling. Absolutly breath-taking. Later on I will perform a Rhubarb over the channel

A huge thank you goes from me for all the work, effort, and time you put in to making this map.

Hi Persecutor, very glad to hear you for your "customer care" :)Thank you. I've D/L the great work of you and your team from U.P. Site (HaSdes) waiting the release of him of the Fix for the actor.static so I've not suffered for the save mission 1st release.Installation went fine for me because I've made a manual one (extracted the .exe in a temp folder then copied all stuff into game patiently;) I can edit/load the map in FMB in about 42 sec 1 st launc from FMB , 30 sec 2nd launch, 24 sec. for launch a mission.
My sistem is:

xp Home ed.
AMD 6400 + X2
Ram 4GB
GF x1950xtx

Here I post also my very basic but hope fun for all Single mission-test.
Cheers and hope this help you for feedback. Thank again for the great work:).

-------------------------------

I've just added the map to my UP.201 setup the via the UP custom installer. Seems to work fine, even with the ancient heap (1 Gb RAM etc) I'm using.

I'll try your mission out _falco. Spit IIs vs Bf 109Es, very appropriate.

Everything has changed from this moment on. This map was worth every minute, week, month and year of waiting. You guys have made a classic and it is beautiful. I like the textures and airfields very much and also how you did not put in evey house so we can still get great fps (I don't really care how many houses in a town anyway).

Thanks for this addition.

Wow..much awaited great news.
I am downloading the installer from the 352th at the moment but is it correct to be in mere 65mb? Thought the file would be much much bigger...

I think that's right. The dedicated UltraPack installer is even smaller: 29 Mb I think. It may be better packed, or perhaps it doesn't need all the files as UP already has some. If you have UP, I'd use that (from the UP website), it downloaded a lot quicker too.

Anyone trying _falco's mission (above) may find it doesn't work if you put it in a 'single missions' folder. I found I had no plane selected. Start it from the FMB, and select a plane there...

I haven't tried it, but it might work in a coop folder as is.

Please any other feedBack for no SP Player's AC in my mission? as in mine installation result ok.Good TychosElk instructions above post (thanks m8:) if it don't work in SP folder put it in Coop one and start mission with "Multiplayer" option and then select every plane (A20, spit 40' or Bf 109N) you want to fly Online/offline too

Yes, _falco, that makes sense - as a coop you should be able to pick any aircraft. I'll give it a try with the 109E tomorrow, if I get a chance. I can imagine the mission builders will love this map, and it would be fun to set a few challenges on it too. How about a London-Paris air race? I'll see if I can think up some rules...

Installed in UP2.01 with UP installer but the map does not show up in quick mission builder.

I'm sorry to bother but I'm having problems here too.

I had the normal 1946 patched to 4.09.

Downloaded the 65mb map and installed. Didn't receive any error messages but I can't find a way to play in the map.

It doesn't show in the QMB or either FMB.

Did I miss anything?

^_^ Thanks in advance for help.

AFAIK you need either HSFX or UI mod komemiute

Now, THAT really explain something. How come I lost it?!?!?

^_^ Funny little me.

Let me guess, you didn' t read the manual

OMFG! This is just amazing in so many ways! Guys you have done a great thing here! downloading now I will be back to sing more praises

Sorry, Talhuman, it won't. None of the extra UP maps are supported by the standard QMB (and neither are most of the stock ones for that matter). You'll need to either use the full mission builder, or wait until mission downloads are available.

Has anyone found anything interesting yet?

The all.ini in the mapmod folder (which is in your mod folder) should have a line in it for this map. Mine was on a line with another maps name. I put the cursor in between them and hit enter to put it on it's own line. That fixed it for me. Make sure the last line looks like this.

Empty2b Empty2b/load.ini
Empty2b_Winter Empty2b_Winter/load.ini
Empty4a Empty4a/load.ini
Empty4b Empty4b/load.ini
redko_japan1 redko_japan1/load.ini
352nd_Cross_Channel 352nd_Cross_Channel/load.ini

Aye, Mister.
:P

You got me here! Downloaded the PDF manual and reading it now.

I guess RTFM is a rule of thumb ALWAYS useful, uh?
