Now that I got my sim running properly after the 1.010 update, I tried the campaign last night.

Started a new one ... started the game ... found the campaign mission in the missions where it's supposed to be ... started the mission, the loading screen starts and about 1/4 of the way up the loading line, I get kicked back to the mission folder.

I haven't been able to start a campaign mission since 1.010.

Guys stay calm. I am sure Patrick will have a solution for all this but it was Christmas and it is still holiday season. So give him a break. Patience is a virtue.

Cheers

Hi all,

My computer bit the dust on Chrismas Eve. I have since recovered to the point where I can get into safe mode with networking and type this message. Unfortunately, I can't do much else as it still does not boot properly (NVidia driver issue - could be the whole card that has gone belly up but I'm not sure).

The good news is that there was no data loss, so all of the code is still there. I back up every release anyway, but I had put several days into getting aces into the game and it would have been a shame to lose that. Fortunately, I didn't.

At any rate, when I am back up and running I will get the latest version of RoF to see what is happening.

As an update .... I have been able to start and run campaigns ... (at least two so far)

PatrickAWilson, thanks for all of your hard work. you've made this game much more enjoyable!

+1.

Please let us know when you get the machine guns on the front turned off as to targets, my squadron waste all their bombs and ammo shooting at those things and then when the E/A show up ... we're practically empty and can't put up a good fight.

Besides, the machine guns detract from the actual flight path on occasion. I've sat and watched as my squaddies go straight down the front attacking machine gun locations till they are so far off the flight path that its rediculous, and I end up flying the mission alone.

Oh while I'm here, with regard to the placement of the multiskin, do I put that \data\graphics\xxxxx\xxxx in the directory for the campaign generator, or do I install it in the rof data directory?

Thanks again Patrick.

Quick question-do you have to exit the game every time you complete a mission to generate a new one?

Thanks

Yep, I do.

I think you need to have it re-read the missions folder where you'll add your next mission.

Do you have spaces in the pilot name? I found that using underscores in place of spaces caused the mission to show OK now.

thanks for the info.
the pilot's name is 'GhostRider',no spaces in the name.
