Having problems setting up Rami's Battle For Europe.

Followed all install instructions and after using MissionPlanes5E_CFS2_V1 it informed me Unit_type.2=Me163B-JG400_W15_lw was missing, that plane is not mentioned in the install information if it is I could not see it, can someone please give me a link.

Many thanks,

Robert John.

Robert John: You might want to try:

1.) replacing weapons, objects, etc. that cannot be found in the mission files with similar weapons that exist in your library (e.g. substitute).

2.) comment out items that you have no weapons, objects, etc. by placing a semicolon (;) in column one of the appropriate line(s).

I can tell you that getting these missons/campaigns to run is a learning experience.

I can also suggest that you go to the Google website and insert the phrase 'CFS2 Mission Debugger", examine the results and proceed from there.

Robert John,

The first three are listed below, I may have to send you an updated copy of that readme.

http://www.regshanger.com/Groundcrew/homepage/CFS2/ships/zip/GC_Jervis.zip
http://www.regshanger.com/Groundcrew/homepage/CFS2/ships/zip/GC_Kelly.zip

http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/page.php?lloc=downloads&loc=downloads&page=info&FileID=3316

The AIRCRAFT folder has a readme file for the Mosquito with a hyperlink for the aircraft weapons.

"Oglive allowed me to include a .dp file he modified for the Mosquito that allows for drop tanks, rockets, and bombs. In order to make it work, you need to download and install the weapons from this pack."

Location: http://www.simviation.com/cgi-bin/syb2.cgi?section=cfs&file=GA_dhMos.zip

After that, I'll concede the point that the weapons can be hard to find, hence my disclaimer about making sure everything is in working order before flying the campaign.

As far as the Fw-190 weapons are concerned, those are here: http://www.virtualwings.org/dora/weapons.htm

The D-bolt German weapons are found in the Junkers Ju-188 package, that hyperlink was included with the Messerschmitt Bf-110g-2: http://simviation.com/1/download-file?file=km_ju188e.zip&fileId=32153

As far as the B-25 AI bombs: http://simviation.com/1/download-file?file=B25_AI_Bombs.zip&fileId=32749

RAF gunner: http://www.mnwright.freeserve.co.uk/download/gunner.zip

B-25: http://simviation.com/1/download-file?file=aftrsc_tndlyo.zip&fileId=36482 (This should have the drop tank)

Model oiltank: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?action=jump&catid=45&id=2668 (With the update to this, you won't have to worry about using this oil tank anymore)
 
Still getting problems getting the Battle for Europe MISSIONS and CAMPAIGNS to work.
I am going to install the bear minimum Aircraft,gauges,effects and DP's by opening the mission and campaign files up and unzip everything again.
I will keep you informed of the progress and if it works well Ill write a tutorial on how I done it.
Robert John.

Robert John,

Here, just skip over mission eight for the Luftwaffe and mission nine for the United States. I know this version works 100%, so long as you have everything you need. The mission to defend / attack St. Nazaire is awaiting new scenery.
 
Still trying to install Battle for Europe.
I am using the default mdlnames and descrip files. Near the end of the installation I added some more DP's and then I get the loading error messages. Trying to undo been a problem. Using a default DP file loads with no problem. Have to load the dp's for OBJECTS_DP again. I think I will have to put the bare minimum of DP's in the folder.
RJ
 
I am getting problems loading game when I install the wep_dps, Have I to many DP's or could my computer be to small. How do I thin them out, any ideas.

870 files 3.40 MB object dps

150 files 624 KB wep object dps


RJ
 
The Weps_dp's I had installed is sorted, games loading, there was two dp installed that was causing the problem, they were b24d_liberator.dp and b25d_mitchell.dp, dont know where they came from. Still looking for other objects.
RJ
 
Sorry me again,
Can't find af_lci_1-350_rd. Found af_lci_1-350 in the af_amphib1 zip.
Getting there slowly.
Played some missions, they are fantsftic, scenery looks great.
