Trying out this mission set from Mongoose. Afther making all of the required mods to the aircrafts including the avh_gb_lancaster_mk3_orm_ ai and fw_lancaster_scarecrow; the missions works very well and is very immersing.
One small point: the Intelligence states " pathfinders will mark the target for you in advance"
I have not been able to see this feature, it probably has to do with the payloads of the scarecrow or ai aircrafts.
Has anybody tried this mission and did you get the pathfinder feature to work ?
If so send me a private message so we could compare the different aircraft loadouts or see wath else can be corrected.

thanks
 
Pathfinders

Hi - If you do not have ETO installed and the proper effects files the target markers will not display.
 
I am not playing this mission in ETO because there is no Bottesford(botdGB005) airfield in ETO.But I upgraded me effects file to ETO standards.
 
But -

You'll need the pathfinder flares and the associated files to get the markers to display. As you know just having the effects file is not enough to get certain weapons and effects to display/function. If you have not done so already, copy all the weapons, facilities, objects, guns, and other files/folders from ETO into your install. This should fix it.
 
Emailed you but note these missions are quite old now so depending on your install, all effects may not be present. Also the intelligence file statements doesn't mean you will necessarily see them; in fact that did happen in real life. I will redo any relevant old missions when/after a complete TOW install is released; hopefully end year/beginning next.
