At the bottom of the pilot page are navigation tabs.
The default window for the pilot info pages are 800x1000

Are you seeing the below tabs

Oh,I see...
Here is what I'm getting:




I can't reach the clickable boxes as the stay always in the backround.
I have the same problem with other RoF Campaign windows, for example In configuration
screen I'm loosing some options at the bottom as well as in the Combat Report screen
I can't see what I'm writing in the last two rows.
Is there a way to resize or get these windows in the foreground?

It's my guess you are on a screen with a vertical res less than 1000. In which case I think you may be buggered.
The pilot page default size is v800 x h1000, that being the case if you are on a less than 1000 screen the bottom of the page is clipped.

does not work for me the way it should, I guess.
When I hit create mission, it looks for the file "owned aircraft" (or something) and misses it. It then creates a mission with an airplane I do not own and hence cannot start.
Any suggestions ?

Michael.

Have you set up what aircraft you own?

Hi, it's me again.
I want to edit the SquadronInfo file to add some custom skins,
but the type designations used are a bit confusing (which plane coresponds to what number)... dizzy
Example:
..............
Planes
{
Plane
{
Id = 501004; ...............>Albatros D2?
StartDate = 01/09/1916;
EndDate = 01/10/1916;
}
Plane
{
Id = 501010; ................>Albatros D2 late?
StartDate = 17/09/1916;
EndDate = 20/11/1916;
}
Plane
{
Id = 501011; ...............>Albatros D3?
StartDate = 17/11/1916;
EndDate = 01/03/1917;
}
Plane
{
Id = 501012;
StartDate = 01/02/1917;
EndDate = 01/08/1917;
}
Plane
{
Id = 501014;
StartDate = 30/06/1917;
EndDate = 01/03/1918;
}
Plane
{
Id = 501005;
StartDate = 12/12/1917;
EndDate = 01/06/1918;
............

I know that 501 is for Germany but what about the other half?

The Plane data you are looking at just dictates what aircraft to use for certain dates, it wont effect what skin is displayed.

Jasta 10 is 501010 will mean any mission file generated for Jasta 10 will have 501010.dds set as the skin regardless of plane type

The Skin section above the plane section is the only edit you can make to change Squadron skins. Which can be changed based on date in a similar way the planes can be set.

For example for Jasta 10


Quote:
Skin
{
Name = "501010";
Date = 01/08/1915;
}
Skin
{
Name = "pd3a_501010_ans";
Date = 17/03/1918;
}
Skin
{
Name = "501010";
Date = 28/04/1918;
}
Skin
{
Name = "fd7f_501010_ans";
Date = 01/07/1918;
}
}


You could for instance add entries for the change from 3 Colour green/brown/light green wings (501010_early) to Purple/Green wings (501010_late)

There is the possibility to have the same settings for Aces, but it is not implimented in the RoF campaign yet and based on the fact that Neoqb are not far from releasing their own campaign I have a feeling further development by Pat on his campaign will slow to a stop.

I've figured out how it works.
And have already assigned some skins succesfully.
I don't want to change anything in that section,I just don't know what is the plane to number correspondance
so to assign a proper skin in the skins section.

That's it though, you can't assign a skin to a particular plane, only to the squadron. Pat has followed the Neoqb naming standard and all Squadrons in Pats campaign now follow that standard. Using my example from Jasta 10 above, from 01/08/15 onwards every skin Jasta 10 uses will be called "501010.dds", regardless of aircraft.
until 17/03/18 where it will use "pd3a_501010_ans.dds".

The mission builder will just add 501010.dds to the mission skin reference up until the skin change on 17/03/18.

Skin = "albatrosd3\501010.dds";

The builder will reference what aircraft is relevant for the mission using the plane section and what skin to apply from the Skin section of the squadroninfo file based on date.

As long as you have a skin named 501010.dds in all Aircraft skin folders for each of aircraft that are used, then the skin will display throughout the Squadron's campaign on any aircraft it uses.

If you are after the aircraft designations then the file "AircraftInfo.RoFCampaign" in the data folder has that info.

Also have you downloaded Ansirals skin pack for Pats Campaign. It has a lot of the skins for the various Squadrons and Jasta's used in the Campaign generator?
