Thank you for the latest beta. I'll provide some feedback as soon as I  can.

 

EDIT: It does work, provided that there is no "timetable off" command in the timetable.dcg. Thank you once again.

 

I get a strange error though. Any idea why a campaign resets and starts from the beginning after it has reached its end date?

I get a strange error though. Any idea why a campaign resets and starts from the beginning after it has reached its end date?

 

Which campaign?  And do you have "Single Map Campaign" checked as an option?

[verde]

Never mind me, I screwed up the grandcampaign file. Now it's working correctly. My only slight complaint is that TCapture doesn't work with locations designated as Front but I can always change that manually through the program itself.

 

Thanks once again, your continued support over the years is most appreciated.

[Lowengrin]

Let me have a closer look at TCapture for the front locations.

[Lowengrin]

Modified how "TCapture Contested" works.  If you use this timetable command, the front will switch to this location.  Therefore, you can move the front to a new location on the same day you have either the Allieds or Axis capture the front location

 

For example:

  19410806 TCapture Contested Border_Village
  19410806 TCapture Axis Front_Village

.

Thanks for the umpteenth time.

Latest beta (lucky 13) tweaks how human and AI squadrons work in MDS mode.  Now if you set a squadron to "Human Only", it should not spawn AI planes.

 

Also added ability for a user to create a de_names.dat file to replace the default German pilot names.  For details, see:

Does this work for other nationalites? Would gb_names.dat work for the British?

[idefix44]

To verde.

 

No. The ability to replace the default pilot names only concerns the german pilots.

[verde]

That's a shame. British names are somewhat peculiar from what I can tell.

[Lowengrin]

Making each name list open to users supplying their own is on the "to do" list.  But it just hasn't been a priority for me.  DCG hasn't really been a priority for me the past five or so years.

This latest beta should hopefully fix the issue with the Polish tank not spawning if it's column appears as static.

No change. Sorry Sir. The issue with the Polish tank not spawning if it's column appears as static isn't fixed...

 

Have a good day.

[Lowengrin]

Thanks for ruining my good day!

Fixed.

[Lowengrin]

 

Just keep an eye on whether when they are destroyed, they don't reappear the very next mission.

[Lowengrin]

Latest beta should prevent Western Allied units from transferring to Soviet bases on the Berlin and Balaton maps.

Thanks alot Lowengrin.

Appreciating the continued support of your wonderful program.

If I meet you in person I'll pay you dinner and lots of drinks  .

[Lowengrin]

I'm just amazed people are still using it after all these years. 

[idefix44]

In thousands years people'll remember that, at the begining of the twenty-first century, the god of Flight Sims, Oleg Maddox (The Great), created IL-2 Sturmovik.

And on his right, Lowengrin (The Generous) was sitting...

 

Hallelujah!
