Wulfmann's Battle of Britain Mission Pack for CFS 3 ETO now available!!!!

Hi Ton

Thanks for making these available. As a BoB groupie this really has added to my enjoyment of the sim now that Wulfman's mission talents have been added to the ETO aircraft, scenery and effects.

One point I noticed was that in mission 41 reference is made to RAF St Marys on the Isle of Wight. St Marys is actually the airfield on the island of the same name in the Isles of Scilly (these beautifull islands of some 2000 permanent residents are some 20 miles off Lands End and are the last part of England before America). I have spent many a relaxing holiday there which the pace of modern life has largely passed by.

You may be amused by the fact that the Nederlands and the Isles of Scilly were officially at war for a period of 335 years only ending with the signing of a peace treaty in 1986(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Hundred_and_Thirty_Five_Years'_War). A war without a shot being fired or a casualty inflicted on either side.

In the last mission from St Marys (no 45) the home airbase is shown in the briefing notes as Drytree (a leftover from the firstset of BoB). MS put Drytree in the original release as an airbase but it and another 10 they entered in the Global_layer were in fact Chain Home and Chain Home Low radar stations whilst Box was a country mansion used as a Fighter Command sector HQ!!! Usual MS attention to detail.

Your added bonus of numerous German stand alones really makes this a special month.

I knew about a treaty signed in the 1980's, but did not know what group of Isles it was. Great story though!!!!!

RL kept me away from CFS3 for about 3 years.

Remember BoB mission set from Wulfmann was awesome, but all the links to this package don't work.
The only working download I found was that of the pre-ETO package.

Can anyone point me to a working link for the ETO Pack of his BoB.
 
Even though it's the same link from the past now in both Chrome and Firefox I get
Error code: ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED

??
 
the problem is that the site was located on free webspace and i haven't been on my cfs 3 website for a long time. lycos moved on as multimania, and the tric was to replace lycos with multimania in the url, but just 15 minutes ago i stumbled upon a page saying multimania is temporary out of order.

so i will try to find the bob missions in my email, or find try to find another solutions for easier access. but please give me a day (or two)

groet

ton

ps: i'm still alive and kicking (and having espresso's)
 
to cut a long story short: found the files in my emailbox and will upload them to a site like mediafire and post the link here on soh

however, i do not have the time to upload them tonight, so it will be done later on this weekend.

I have a 2009 version of these files in the .zip that I downloaded back when it was available. If anyone is interested and with permission I can make it available.

Also, in the CFS3 missions library there is a 2004 version from Wulfmann.

back in 2009 wulfmann had his own reasons not to upload the files to sim-outhouse and i think we all should respect this. my own website is down, but as promised i will make the files, and as much stuff i can trace on my hd's, available via sites like mediafire or here on soh.

but no problem if you share the eto-bob files via email or your own website, think it might speed up the proces :)
