Hello,
I try to "run" this mission
"<!--Combat Flight Sim mission-->
<Mission>
<Params Version="3.0" Directive="strike" Weather="Missions\BodenplatteMissionWeather.xml" Airbase="pade520" Country="Germany" TotalGoals="2" Aircraft="fw_190a_8" Date="1/1/1945" Time="08:45" Multiplayer="y"/>
<Title>New Year's Bash</Title>
<SubTitle>Operation Bodenplatte: Attack Spitfires Stationed on an Allied Airfield</SubTitle>
<Overview>As part of Operation Bodenplatte (our New Year's Day surprise for the Allied air forces), you will attack aircraft stationed on an Allied airfield. Fly out of Paderborn early in the morning. Get up and join with 109's, then head west at treetop level. You will approach the target airfield from the southwest to strafe ground targets. Fly a wide sweep around Eindhoven and come in from the southwest over the airfield, which lies between the Eindhoven-Tilburg road and the village of Zeelst. Once you reach the airfield, take on the Spitfires. If you can, destroy the Spitfires as they take off, but if they've already taken off, deal with them in the air, and then head home.</Overview>
<Intelligence>You may catch the Allies napping if you strike early enough on New Year's Day.</Intelligence>
<SuccessMessage>Your attack on the Spitfires at the Allied airfield was successful, and 1945 dawns more brightly for the Luftwaffe as a result of your determined efforts.</SuccessMessage>
<FailureMessage>You failed to do sufficient damage to the Spitfires based at the Allied airfield. Further failures may put you in the cockpit of a Stuka on the eastern front!</FailureMessage>

It starts without problems except that my aircraft is NOT moving (static) in the air. I can see all the AI aircrafts flying around me .
It always says "Simulation Loading"
When I check the Task Manager CFS3 as already made 547.230 IOs and it is still increasing ...
And after 20 minuts it is still loading ...
Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance.

never had this issue. I'm actually flying Wulfman's missions for MAW and everything is fine.

Finally after waiting more than 1 hour I decided to quit the game

Hi Emile,
Are you running a CFS3 mission in MAW?

Hi Emile,
Are you running a CFS3 mission in MAW?

Yup Firestorm you are on the right track. When an aircraft displays suspended animation it has reached the theater boundry. That's a stock CFS3 mission and outside the MAW theater boundry. Only by changing the locations of all the waypoints and locations of the mission targets and facilties will it work.

agree with rp here on that issue what you might do is copy poaste that mission and send it out to a tester and can try and see if your missing anything and all

Hello,
I found this mission in my MAW installation. I will delete it and I have learned something more.
Thanks guys.

Hey Emile it's an ETO mission "LBS_Bodenplatte_45-01-01" Works great in ETO1.4:salute:
