Hi there,

Made these start up maps a long time ago.

Roughly around two or so years ago Just after Kevin P's first amazing map tutorial came out.  ;D :D

Let me know if links are still good as I have changed to Gamefront for uploading.

If any one is keen to work on some of them feel free.  ;D :D    ;D

Busy with 2 Paciific and 1 Pacific/Atlantic projects now all in 100 pixals scale.

Pete's Mission Bug South Vietnam started off from one of these little start up maps.  8) :P :D ;) :)

Look at how it's developed over this time.

Cheers Kirby

I know it's a dumb question, but how do you determine what the load.ini's are for these starter maps??

Hi Vampire Pilot

I made these starter maps some years ago. After learning how to make Manan Island from Kevin P's tutorial.

Feel free to tinker around with them.

They are for anybody who may want to complete the maps..

(I'm busy with Borneo and  Java/Bali)

China will be Kirby's next project  ;D  just kidding!  I dunno! 

I thought about doing one or two because China is such an important theater that is being overlooked.  I'm taking a break from map building and flying more.  Maps take so much time and I missed flying. 
I think the biggest discouragement was lack of information on airfields, what they looked like and location.
I compiled a list of the airfields with their general locations but that's as far as I got.

don't let that hinder you;)
so far we have nothing, so any improvement is appreciated by the community.
Also, if you have collected information and there is not more.... then it is what it is. Nobody can prove it being "wrong".
If it is made believable it is absolutely okay in my book.

I just wondered if anyone has any of these maps under their wing.
Personally , I am most interested in the Shanghai/Nanking Map Battles of 1937 - I hope it goes a ways to the west!
These become much more relevant with all the great late 30s aircraft coming down the pike lately.

Anyhow, just a knock to see if anyone has been or is interested in tinkering.

Kopdorfer, IIRC Poltava made a campaign on that very point using 1 of the maps.

I messed around with the map myself - not very successfully. My rice paddies were pretty lame. :-(

In any event, I was really interested in a late war USAAF China map which would extend further West and cover more territory.

I also had the Kunming map, but found that it covered territory to the west of Kunming. This area was a spur of the Himalayas and pretty high, barren and rocky. It was interesting to fly over a couple of times, but useless for anything other than perhaps a "Hump" mission or 2.
