I remember a WWI campaign in progress somewhere that disappeared.

I'm looking to see if there is still an interest in that venue, as I began building a map about 6 months ago in a WWI style with a trenchline, aerodromes, no man's land, etc., resembling the effort in detail on my BOB campaigns. RL pulled me away and I've not worked on it in awhile.

Also included are detailed plane skins beyond those already available. Basically you'd be flying for the 94th Aero Squadron with Rickenbacker, flying the Nieuport 28s.

There will be no flight paths for your flight, only directions in the breifing to guide you by... find random enemy flights, play hide and seek in the clouds, hit ground targets of opportunity, the missions outcome will revolve on your eagerness and caution, your craftiness or your carelessness.

I can/will post some pictures if you guys think there's enough interest... or I can dump it and look for a new idea.

yeah the first fella (or most recent one at least) to take up this was JTFM i think, r/l interferred and progress slowed but there is still interest. he did post recently that he was either looking to hand over to someone else or just release as is. think a ww1 campaign would go down a storm and tide people over until KoTS turns up. the trench objects in 4.08, and the troops in 4.09 would give a real senes of life to the ground as well...

I think the guy who originally proposed this anticipated (correctly imho) that interest, though intense, would evaporate as soon as "Knights Of The Sky" was released. Personally, I think you would be better off looking for a new idea.

But ultimately, trust your own judgement on this one, as with everything else......

Hey Cobra - nice to hear from you. Your campaign ounds really similar to JTFM's one. I'm helping him with some ground sytuff right now. If yours is finished you may as well release it - shame to waste all your work. JTFM's is from the German side.
We were communictaing regularly but his net provider is on the fritz so we've kind of stopped temporarily.

Hi FlatSpinMan,

No it's not even close to ready, I was still working on the map. Until today that is - it seem the 4.09 update has screwed my game, I can't even get it to start. Not sure what to do at this point.

I did DCG DF campaign for 1916, not tried generating it in coop mode though.

My squad would play this! We are always looking for good coops and WWI stuff would be a nice change of pace.

Looks like you have a good start on a template.

DCG should find it if you've copied these to your TPC master files (or just included the campaign in its own WW1 Campaign Folder:-

allcampaigns.dcg

maps.dcg
____________________________________________________

When you start a new campaign (or continue an old one after running another):-

Start DCG and uncheck the options under "Mode" and replace standard Il2 NGen and Dgen.

Also un-check "Optional Third Party Data Folder" under "Files"

Then close the program.

Re-open DCG
Now choose "Mode" and replace the NGen and/or DGen , and select DF or Coop mode.

Then under "Files" and "Select DCG Campaign Folder" and check "Optional Third Party Data Folder". Here choose the path and select "allcampaigns.dcg" in the menu.

You should then see the splash for the campaign you chose.
Set any preferences i.e. General Settings, intensity etc. and you should be good to go.

I've not tested this as a coop , but see no reason why it should not work

DCG 335 was used in this instance.

THANX! Your explanation did help.
It shows up now in the list in-game.

However i get an "integer" error when
i try to host it as a coop, but I'll
keep trying.

THANX again for your time, patience,
and good work.

~SALUT~

Hi, I tried doing what you said, but I can't find the 'squadron file' it asks for when i try to select DCG campaign folder?
and when I try to run the campaign it says "is not a valid integer value.

any ideas?

I'm working on it, seems I have to change some other things too, but got some help and pointers now.
