Welcome to the CFS2_Wingman_Utility_v3.00.
This utility was inspired by, and is an alternative to, the CFS2_AI_Promoter by "Aviar" (Gabe Buzasi) and "PCH" (Paul Hauschildt). Thanks go to them for their great work. Their program can still be found at Sim Outhouse.
I found I couldn't get their AI_Promoter to work on Windows 10, so I created this utility.
If you:
1) don't care how CFS2 handles your wingmen's skills, you don't need CFS2_Wingman_Utility_v3.00.
2) do care how CFS2 handles your wingmen's skills but are happy to edit the relevant pilot .log file manually, you don't need CFS2_Wingman_Utility_v3.00.
3) do care how CFS2 handles your wingmen's skills but are able to use the AI_Promoter, you don't need CFS2_Wingman_Utility_v3.00.
Otherwise you might benefit from using CFS2_Wingman_Utility_v3.00.
Please read and accept the Conditions of Use found in the file CFS2_Wingman_Utility_v3.00_CoU before using this utility.
This utility:
a) Backs up your selected pilot log file before making any changes.
b) Allows you to set the "wingmen_lost=" in the pilot log file, thus avoiding having your pilot "retired" by CFS2 for the sin of losing too many wingmen.
c) Allows you to edit the names and skills of each of the wingmen.
IMPORTANT: This utility cannot re-instate your pilot if they have already been retired (that can be done manually).
IMPORTANT: If you have previously installed an earlier version, please replace it with this version.
This version fixes issues where the .log file has extra lines.
Please see the CFS2_Wingman_Utility_v3.00_User_Guide for details of installing and using the utility.
This utility works on Windows 10, probably works on Windows 8.1, 8.0 and 7. It may not work on any earlier versions of Windows.
Cheers,
