Although I will probably not play around with this for some time (if ever due to time constraints) I just wanted to say that I really appreceate the work you put into it.

Thanks

Whiskey (Irish?) do you have JAVA instlaled on your machine. Does not sound so. If JAVA is installed clicking on a .jar archive will start the application included in the.jar archive. Please have a look in your System Control Panel if there is an entry for JAVA. If it is not installed you should do that as advised in the release notes text on the download page.

Hope this will enlighten you


Cheers

That was it thanks Gremlin. I had assumed Java was installed as part of the Win7 installation, I now realise it was not. Problem solved now, thanks.

WB.

I am glad, that I could help. You know, Microsoft (Windwos) and Sun (JAVA) are far from being friends


Cheers

Here are the new features/fixes in V1.01

New Features:
Added pilot pictures
Removed "junk flights: flights that do not cross player's path within 20 KM.
Made cruise speed dependent on aircraft type
Made generation of opposition flights configurtable - See \RofCampaign\Data\RofCampaign.config
Changed campaign extension to .campaign. Loader now filters on ".campaign".

Fixes:
Fixed memory leak
Reduced wind strength
Extreme altitude: Most flights are between 2K and 5K meters. Some 2 seater flights are lower. No changes.
Made the red X work
Fixed bug in combat report: no planes show up in drop down.
Increased default opposition odds to improve contact chances.

I am going to edit the OP for FAQs. Look there if you are having any problems.

Pat, I have also made up a ReadMe downloadable on the download page if you do not mind. I have collected there some information you have posted.

WOW, thank you SO much PatrickAWilson. All those fixes, you have been busy.

Hi Patrick

I tried the campaign generator (20091105-0705_RoFCampaign) and find it very satisfying. What I liked most was that I never knew when an enemy flight would appear, how high etc. In the stock campaigns you always know when something will happen.
I scanned and scanned and scanned the skies while on patrol, always a little anxious. This is immersion for me (and no, we didn't encounter anybody, but then not every flight should encounter E/A).

There are a few small things:
1) The font is somehow very big and strange. It doesn't allow for the name of my pilot to be displayed entirely. I tried changing the fonts in the settings to ones I actually have on my system, but doesn't look like it changed anything.

2) I like the idea of always being the flight leader. But I started my campaign as lieutenant, and had the major as my wingman, the captain as wingy in my next flight.

3) Make the briefing sticky, ie. I would like to be able to re-visit the briefing after mission creation.

4) Maybe throw in some random intel from time to time, like enemy observation aircraft have been spotted north of your assigned patrol area?

5) I fly without waypoints or labels, so maybe include desired altitude for the waypoints in the briefing. Or where those completely at the discretion of the flight leader back then?

Thank you so very much for your work
