I am glad it worked. Have fun with the map.

Hmmm, is it possible to have a campaign on this map?

Yes. The AKAFA Campaign ran a Battle of France scenario last winter that lasted 20 3 hour sessions. It was great fun.

The Channel Map new from 352, is played on Spits & 109s mod sever located in Hyper-Lobby.

it's called Operation Sea Lion. MDS is activated on all their maps. so you have on going ground battles and air AI bombing mission on going.
Most gratifying map.

Hi, please help me with this.
I tried to join last night, but most probably missing a mod.
I have updated IL2 to latest, and installed UP3 RC4 on top of it.
I activated UP in JGSME.
What else do I need to do to join this server?
Thanks in advance.

UPDATE: done my homework on the website, looks like I have to download MDS. I assumed it is part of UP.

Still need some help.
The download link for MDS 1.2 at UP forums are down.
Do any of you have an alternate link?
Thanks in advance!

Sorted everything out, and just to help others (although I forsee a lot of facepalms from you), I share it.
So,
MDS is included in UP3. Touche.
The reason I wasn't able to join to the servers was, that I had swastika and widescreensupport mod activated.
Well, sorry for bothering.

The Cross Channel Map uses a 1.5 factor for friction value at every airfield on the map (there are 89 of them). We did that because a good many of the fields are largely open grass, which is ordinarily too rough to land and take off from safely; with the added friction value each airfield is smooth and landing and taking off is as expected.

With the release of 4.10 an airfield friction value was added to the Full Mission Builder. We've discovered that using the friction value in the FMB with the Cross Channel Map can result in some very rough airfields, clearly not our intention and a re-affirmation of the law of unintended consequences, LOL.

We've learned that adding a value of 1 and set friction ON will result in the smooth airfields that the map maker intended.

Hope this information helps.

Hi Pers, you might want to check the Cross Channel map download link. I am getting a 404 error message saying that it can't be found and someone mentioned on M4T that they couldn't get it from your link either. The one I gave you still seems to be working.

Thanks for the alert, Wheels. Link repaired.
