Thanks for the feedback Dobby.

1. I will probably have to make font size settable.
2. I do want to make a change such that you are not always in command of a mission.
3. That can be handled easily enough.
4. Agreed. Little points of immersion are always fun.
5. That can be done too. Maybe a brief description of every waypoint.

Right now empty skies are my #1 priority. I have been surprised by the lack of visibility. I think that I know the answer and odds are good for something within a couple of days.

Q: My computer can't handle the missions. Performance is horrible.
A: open RofCampaign\Data\RofCampaign.config. Set the base flight parameter for your side to zero. This will reduce the number of friendly flights.
If it sill happens, reduce the enemy flights to 0. Increase opposition flight odds 100.
Improvements are coming int terms of performance options.

...

When I set either of the base flight lines to "0", I get an error msg when trying to create a mission:
"No central fields available for missions" or "No allied fields available for missions" So far, I can only run RoF Campaign with settings as shown below:
ChalkboardFontKey = "Freestyle Script";
PilotFontKey = "Freestyle Script";
MissionDescriptionFontKey = "Serif";
BaseAlliedFlightsKey = 2;
BaseCentralFlights = 2;
OppositionOdds = 50;

I must be doing something wrong.

Could be an issue in the code. I'll look into it. The behavior that I want is to create missions with o friendly flights but not create missions with no enemy flights. I might not be coded properly to accomplish that. If not it will be fixed shortly.

I'm wanting to give this a try but I'm having issues with JAVA.

I'm running Windows 7 RC and cmd.exe is associated with .jar files.
I've tried changing it in the control panel but it won't.

I can get the program to run if I right click and open with Java SE Binary.
But I get an error stating the program can't find planes.txt or something.

Its looking for the files in my C:\Windows\System32\ folder instead of my Rise of Flight folder.
I think this is because I can't get windows to not associate cmd.exe with .jar files.

Any Ideas?

I have set up 2 campaigns in RoF but when I double click the .jar (as per the instructions)it just opens another folder containing a META-INF and rof folder?
Am I supposed to extract the files in the jar. to the RoF folder?

I just re-read the complete post and saw what I missed the first time, i.e. I don't have JAVA

Version 1.0.2 has been sent. Please wait for a post by Dart or Gremlin providing notification that it has been uploaded before downloading.

This one should be a big improvement to the empty skies syndrome. I ran a mission that started with friendly and enemy squadrons tangling (Use CTRL/SHIFT-F2 view). Then I got on station and got into a tangle with a patrol of Albatros AND a patrol of Pfalz. Skies should be much less friendly.

V1.02
New Features:
- Revamp of opposition flights resulting in much more contact.
- New GUI backgrounds by Seiseki
- Improved GUI arrangement
- New paper background.
Bug Fixes:
- Major bug fix to get other flights going. They just flew circles.
- Removed inadvertent display of picture file name on chalkboard

Odd that I am the only one having problems with this Application.
It now seems that it seizes hold of part of my RAM or something...I'm not technically smart enough to guess. BUT, even though I have exited the program, completely....when I try to change an entry in the RoFCampaign.config file, I can't. I am repeatedly told that the program is being used by some other application. It is not. It does not show in my windows taskbar, not in task manager, nowhere!

I cannot even simply delete the RoF Campaign folder en toto.

The only way I can 'unlock' the RoF Campaign folders/files to start afresh is to re-boot my computer. That is silly. Any idea what is up? Does this have to do with your reference to a "Memory Leak" issue???

Meanwhile, also, as I’ve said before, with the default settings of 5 and 4 for base settings, the generated mission is unplayable for me…totally freezing, delayed, worse than Slide Show...and I've yet to see any enemy aircraft closer than FAR away at extreme distances on the Map. My aircraft even on autopilot seems to be flying SLOWLY on the map...takes Forever to get anywhere....Something is just not right.

My Rig isn’t that totally horrible…and works for other RoF missions and all IL2 missions, FWIW.
