Hello Simon!

a biig thank you from me as well
oh and a quick question: I noticed that both, the Pioneer Corps and the Siege of Malta campaigns are placed outside the folder structure of the campaign folder and both start with 1940_....
shouldn´t they go into the DE and the GB folder respectively?

cheers
phil

EDIT: copies both folders into their respective countries and everything works as it should just as a hint for others

OOPS!  I'm always doing that!  Thanks Phil, will upload again later with the all the folders in the right place! 

EDIT: OK Done that again, apologies for any confusion.  KUDOS to Phil, and all who take a look inside a RAR first and look at the structure!

Hi Simon

Loving the new splashscreens now, after not having my head screwed on and noticing the structure inside the zipped download had to be reworked slightly. I see some screenshots from the BoB, does this mean an imminent release? I see what you're doing, raising anticipation with drip feeds!

Thank you for this refresh of TFM. It is just what was needed.

Hi Simon,

I'm getting all planes exploding on loading of mission 13 of JG-53.  Happens in both the campaign and single mission.  I have all packs installed, tried loading and saving in FMB to no avail.  Any ideas?

Also, the link for Desert Air Force leads to the download page for Pioneer Corps   o.0

[SAS~Monty27]

Links fixed thanks.  Make sure you have the latest version of Ace of Spades and delete all old versions.

Hahaha well spotted you bugger!  Nothing deliberate, its just what I was testing at the time, but yes, its in the final phase and will be ready very soon!

Tried that, no joy.  It appears the problem isn't in the missions or campaign, but something else in my install, possibly air.ini.  A lot of the English planes don't load properly, even in QMB.  I loaded up a 1v1 109E and Spit mk1 a with no problems.  Loading up mark II a, assuming in in the 109, causes the mission to start with my engine off and the spit nowhere to be found.  Loading it up from the other side results in a very strange sort of blank screen, like the camera is half buried in the ground or something.  Spit mark V and most of the later Hurricanes have this same problem.  RRRRggg I thought I had finished troubleshooting, too

kpn.kardif  for most of IL2 Simmers, we look to a file called log.lst to see if any errors that come to light that most of us try to sort what we did wrong in our install. Maybe you are above that, but I personally refer to my Error Log to see where  I  F'cked up!

Wow, Monty, you're just amazing...!

thanks for all these!

Evening all, finally got myself a lovely new DBW install with the New TFM up to pack 29. trying to install 3 campaigns though and i followed the installation text at start of this thread to the letter. Just extracted the files to the main IL2 installation. I know this must be wrong as i can not see the campaign within the campaigns section anywhere.

I have downloaded:
1. Deadlock Over Casino
2. Four Days in June
3. The Ace of Spades

Not wanting to start moving campaigns mission folders around within my nice new install just yet haha.

Any help to get this sorted would be good

RAR files, take the content files out of the shell they are zipped in.  The MISSIONS, SAMPLES, PAINTSCHEMES folders all go into the main Il2 install.  An indication you have done this correctly is the message that the folders already exist and is OK to overwrite? - Say YES TO ALL, since we are only adding content to those existing strucrures, not replacing anything.  I suspect the main 'TFM-Campaign etc' folders are instead just lurking there in your main install...
