Looks very good indeed.

S!
Details on Finali posted. German screen shot does not give credit for 2 ships and an armored column. Wurger is missing on the end game tally. The chat is pretty funny.

S!
Ok, I had a little time on my hands.
Ya, the upper wings on the later planes does look familiar.

S! Thanks got it.
I think I just was tired of continually writing Wurgers name over and over

No.42_Awdie, KNS_IceWolf, has saved many of the old Flanders in Flames records from back in the RB3D days. He was very gracious in allowing me access. I have tried to assemble as many records as possible for Flanders in Flames. The records are not always complete. Many records are missing.
The RoF series of FiF will be added.

Sorry I could not fly last night. Had a corrupted file in my game folder. Only took 5 hours to fix it.
Thanks to klaiber, Lee and Maus for pictures.

There are still some serious difficulties to overcome as you can tell.
I see how you can make a script to fill in x y z coordinates for moving objects. We already use proximity triggers to turn units on or off. The biggest problem for RoF is really the lack of RR and regular roads. That is why we are doing FiF on the channel map. Many more options there. The problem with BoS becomes the size of the map and the transport options. Only time will tell.
They look like they can tally the score, update the available units and their location. They then generate a separate group file for each commander and repeat the proses.

You might want to look at this thread over at the RoF forums.
It looks very promising.

A problem was detected in which Otto might say something when it should be Waldo and then Waldo would say nothing. Captain Picard had Data and Jordi investigate. The original suspicion was in the subtitle coalition assignment routine. This proved to be lengthy and tiresome. After starring at ME screens in 3D for hours, Jordi had to have his visor realigned. Data went down the recon / arty - secondary discriminator subroutine path. Data is now having a self diagnostic of his own. After cramming for his next Star Feet Academy exam, Wesley Crusher was so strung out on Klingon Meth that he instantly saw the problem as a cross connection in the recon primary / secondary selector master program. Fortunately Dr. Crusher shut him down with a Hypo spray before he started explaining how it would be better to recrystallize dilithium in the 31st dimension. Waldo and Otto no longer talk to each other or the enemy. Jordi is disturbed by all the permutations and feels that it can never be fully tested until the next time Romulan space is entered. Data is confident that he understood Wesley and has made the appropriate alterations to the holo display logic.
Counselor Troi feels nothing but harmony on board.
Captain Picard is in Sick Bay getting a hair transplant.
Subtitles that indicate a target location have been increased to a 10 second display time. This is so the message is not just seen but able to be reread and checked. The usual 5 second duration is not sufficient even for a large group. The tap your shoulder or warning, a message is coming subtitles are still at 5 seconds.

thanks for posting the list.

First, captured skins are only for captured planes. I am sure that if you are captured, no Entente would fly that skin. ;-)
Yes armored vehicles are still in the hidden convoy. Secondary targets will either be an armored unit or a supply unit. Supply units are trucks. Secondary targets will be a specific location and do not move.
No weapons mods. Sorry no Becker. Also no DH4s with 20 guns pointing everywhere. No twin gun tripes or pups.

I have talked with Flatspin. We are disturbed by the problems with the FEE. It was hoped that the plane would just fit right in. Unfortunately it changes every day. We keep getting changes in armament, changes in what works and what doesn't. What is preferred one day, does not work the next. We have to change rules and make new rules. At this point we do not want to start making exceptions to rules. We agreed it would be better to drop this plane set and to use an early 1917 plane set that we have used before and worked well.
Allies 2 dromes of Pups, 1 drome of tripes, 1 drome DH4 2 seater.
Germans, 2 dromes Alb D3 and one drome Alb D2, 1 drome DFW 2 seater.
One of the good outcomes of trying to adjust to the FEE was the idea of 2 lives per player. One life as a pilot and one life as a gunner. This is still in line with the dead is dead concept but it allows people to have greater opportunities for continued play. The main goal of this event is to have people online and having fun. The only restriction is that a gunner must be in the rear seat before take off. There have been reports of gunner deaths while planes are actually taking off. Obviously no switching planes once in the air.

We saw a Bristol FB2 using what was made as a skin for a captured airplane. That means the Bristol would be at a German drome and would be in German Markings. Well encountering a Bristol from a British drome in German markings is more than confusing. The pilot - SkychaserGT knew it was a German skin on a plane from the British side.
Captured skins probably have a place somewhere in the twilight zone. mho If you want to fly a Bristol and be British, fly with an appropriate skin. If you want to be German and fly a Bristol, switch sides.
The skin is in the BristolFB2 skin folder it is Jasta 5 squadron hack. I have deleted this file from my skins folder.

A quick explanation of Hett's personal symbol.
Regarding the Dead Baron
I think I remember reading about that. ( Copied from Wikipedia)
Legend of the 'Dead Baron'
Rolff Hett was the youngest child of Freiherr Joseph Emst Hett von Saxe-Coburg, second cousin to the Duke. As a frail child Rolf was picked on by his two older sisters, Juni and Gertrude. It was expected that he would be unfit to follow his father and ancestors in military service to the Duchy. His heart was strong as was his will. He was determined to follow the family tradition and prove himself. With a word or two from his father, he was accepted into Königlich Bayerisches Schwere-Reiter-Regiment „Prinz Karl von Bayern“ Nr. 1 ,as Leutnant. Away from the influence of his over protective mother, Rolf's physical strength grew in response to the hard work in a cavalry unit. His keen intellect and self determination was appreciated. He rose to Oberleutnant in less than 5 years.
He was excited when the war started. Now he could prove himself worthy of his fathers trust. While there were some early skirmishes, his regiment soon found they had little to do. Word came down that many of the officers would be transferred to logistics duties. Rolf felt this would be an embarrassment. He quickly placed a transfer request and was accepted into the Die Fliegertruppen des deutschen Kaiserreiches. At least here he could fight.
At first there was some difficulty in flight training as he outranked his instructors. He quickly put them at ease. He earned his pilots badge and was posted to the western front.
This is where it happened, on a sunny day with a wind from the west. Rolff had just sat down to a lunch of bergkäse ("mountain cheese") some dark rye bread, and pickles. There was that familiar sound from his cavalry days. Artillery shells!! He almost choked on the cheese as he dove next to the wall of the canteen. With the windows blown out, clouds of smoke poured into the building only it wasn't smoke. GAS!. It was too late for a mask. Still choking on the cheese, he succumbed to the gas and died.
The next day troops came through to remove the bodies. A piece of the wall had landed on Rolff and his body was not found till very late. At first , no one wanted to touch him. The gas had done something strange to him. The flesh from his head and hands was eaten away. Just eyes in lidless sockets remained. Finally the troops got up the courage to move his body. A scream rang out when a soldier grabbed the body's leg. The eyes, the eyes moved and looked at the soldier. The troops all ran screaming at seeing such a horror.
Slowly Rolff was able to move and stand. His hands were mere bones. He did not understand. As his gaze passed a shell hole, the reflection in the water caught his attention. It was a skeleton looking creature. It was him! The shock of it all soon turned to cold reality. He grabbed a pistol and shot himself. Death was the only answer for such a monstrosity.
Something was not right with the pistol. It went off yet he was still alive. Again the loud report of the pistol and still, he was alive. What kind of nightmare was this? Who was he? What was he?
There was one plane not damaged in yesterdays attack. Now alone, he found fuel and oil for it. He loaded the magazine for the machine gun. He did not feel tired. He did not feel cold. He felt only anger and the desire for revenge upon those that had done this to him.
Flying alone at great altitude, he did not feel the cold. He felt hot, hot for revenge. Seeing four enemy observation machines below him, he dove upon them with all the hatred and loathing that a life ruined can muster. He put bullets into the engine of the first plane and it caught fire as he pulled up. He laughed at seeing the two men in it plummet to a fiery death. Turning back on the second enemy he hoped to do the same. By now the enemy planes were doing their best to shoot at him. Rolff paid no attention to the enemy fire. This time he killed the pilot. The plane spun out of control with the hapless observer trapped in the falling machine. Diving at the third plane he felt good. Good at seeing his enemy receive their due, good at seeing these people punished for what they had done to him.
He may not be able to die but his machine is another story. Diving on his third enemy his engine failed. The machine stalled and went into a spin. Rolff finally gained control of the plane but to late. The plane crumpled and splintered as it crashed. All Rolff felt was frustration at not having killed more of his hated enemies.
Eventually a special unit was formed to take advantage of his abilities. Rolf took to wearing a long leather coat, boots and gloves to hide his appearance. With his cap and scarf, he looked almost human, except for those eyes in that bare skull. He had his aeroplanes painted red. Red, the colour of blood. Red, the colour of VENGANCE!
Some say it was the cheese that altered the gas. Others claim it was a mold on the bread. Either way, the Dead Baron wreaks his vengeance in the sky over Europe.

Was wondering if that is game play footage. Looks more like WoW Cinemeatics. As the 109 goes inverted over the IL2 the camera angle shifts to above the 109 looking down at the IL2.
