All these planes are in the missions folders, but were not listed in the readme
files for the Aces High Campaign to download.

Can any one shed some light on this matter?
Without these skins or planes one can not fly most of the missions!:isadizzy:

Found some of 'em

Hi John
I don't have the campaigns but I have found some links for the aircraft and skins on your list.
I went google and type 'cfs2 and the name of the file' or altered the name a bit, such as removing the underlines.

P-38J_8thFG_80thFS_DownBeat
No luck

P-38J_475thFG_DownBeat
No luck

P-38J_237FG-339thFS
No luck

P-38J_343FG-54FS_Lavin
No Luck

However, There are a few P38's at this page, they may be suitable.
Maybe you could use them to replace the ones that can't be found in your missions with those.

I apologize John. If you don't find them, please post here and over the next week, if I see that you are still missing some, I will upload them to the library.

I usually had some folks on here quality control my uploads BEFORE I sent them.

On Aces High, everyone that I usually had were out of town or busy with other projects, so I uploaded the campaigns without running them through anyone else.

Again, my apologies.

John,
That bomb is part of the ALPHA_CFS2_WW2_weapons package.
It is here in SOH library: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?catid=17&sort=N&page=2&pp=20

I have the aircraft and over the weekend can either zip and upload them as a package or guide you to their links. Most are David Copley's P-38s, reskinned by Morton or SopwithC. I emailed David and got his permission to use them in the campaigns. Just let me know if you are missing anything else.
DD73

Hey Rami, Over the weekend I will go into the readme document and add the Alpha_CFS2_WW2_weapons and the locations of the aircraft and skins and email them to you. Can you open the library file and replace the readme for us all?

JP has renewed my interest in the Aces High missions.

I got in and flew some of the campaign yesterday and was not happy with some of the early missions.

I am updating some of the early missions.

I am going to spawn some of the non-player aircraft and ships to make the missions more cohesive, and flow better.

When I send the updates in to Rami, I will include the new readme, which is now finished.

Thanks, John:kilroy::kilroy:

John, Morton's utility will help you there.
It is here in the SOH library: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?action=jump&catid=49&id=6207
With it, you can add, subtract aircraft for you missions and campaigns. It will also allow you to see what aircraft and ships you are missing and substitute some of your favorite add-ons in place of the stockers.

Whenever you add anything to your install(S) of CFS2, you have to go into the main CFS2 folder and search for and delete all "filelist.dat" files, "*.cdp" files, and "index" files: EVERY TIME you add something.

Also, you cannot have more than 80-100 aircraft in your aircraft folder. It is different for every install, as CFS2 doesn't tell you that you have too many for its liking. I have some installs that have just 79 planes because at 80 it CTDs on me. I have other installs that I have 90 aircraft in and it works fine. Any extra skins listed in your aircraft.cfg file count as overall aircraft number. I just make separate aircraft and alias the sound and panel files to the original so I don't have to go looking for aircraft with more than one skin. I rename the entire aircraft to whatever skin it is wearing, which gets a bit involved. SDC redux made an over 100 aircraft module file to go into your MODULES folder that eliminates the CTD when you have too many, but having that many still causes some issues: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?action=jump&catid=49&id=6213

Then, there is the Jones Soft QC editor: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?action=jump&catid=49&id=6211 It lets you reconfigure your Quick Combat file to add on a bunch of aircraft for free flight and quick combat. One caution on it. I have at times needed to go into the qc file and delete a bunch of free space at the top and bring the first entry up to the top line.

Or, it might be Morton's utility that has the free space at the top of the QC file. I do not recall right now. Anyway, one or the other will leave free space at the top of the qc file causing it to CTD. Eliminate the free space and everything works fine.

Oh, on the AF drop tank for the TR B25 C1......you can go into the DP in the aircraft and scroll down to the hardpoints and delete the line that call for it: mount 22. Then scroll down to the payloads section and delete any references to it.

I do the same for the AI-C47 towcable and waco entries since in the Pacific campaigns I build, thus far, I have not used them.

Hope this helps.

TR_B-25C_TkyoSlpr can you shed so light on this?
John :applause:
:applause:

John, I am not familiar with TangoRomeo's TkyoSlpr, but am fairly certain is must be the extra fuel tank for the B-25s of Doolittle's raid. Let me check Simviation, where TR has his stuff.

DD73

Okay, just go to Simviation and in CFS2 search list Tango_Romeo and hit search. All of his aircraft will come on the screen. I saw one B-25 Tokyo Sleeper, that must be the one you are looking for.

Mission building program

:salute:cfs2 mission building program will not load
When I click on the mission building icon
it starts to load then I get a message that
there is an unexpected error and it closes.

Can anyone give me a hand with it.
I also have another copy as ETO it's mission building is fine no problems.

Thanks, John:isadizzy:
 
Has it ever worked? If so, check the number of aircraft and ships in your folders. Make it 80 and 100 respectively and see if the program opens. :kilroy:
