Pat, you undersell yourself, your abilities have done us proud so far.
I've dabbled in VB and had a look at Java in the past. I've also looked at the actual missions the generator produces in mission builder.

I think you have done an excellent job with it so far. Well beyond my capabilities that's for sure. I'd be limited to a simple config editor at best.

Without your campaign, I think RoF would be stuck as a online only game.

I am loving this campaign generator Patrick, thanks for everything you have done so far. Your generator has almost single-handedly revived the SP aspect of Rof for me.

I have not seen a windsock in V7 yet, am I doing something wrong? Also does the windsock only appear at your home base?

Absolutely ! Many thanks.

Mark

I'll have to give the windsock a more thorough test. The code says it should be there but I didn't really test in game thoroughly. Should be easy enough to sort out.

I agree, I think you are under rating your achievements.
Some of those GUI suggestions I made are minor and certainly not worth any frustration they may cause.
I certainly wouldn't want to hear you've taken to juggling kittens, or anything like that...

REALLY happy to hear that pilot status etc. is earmarked for the squadron board in the future. Flying campaigns in other sims I've taken to following the progression of the 'lucky' AI pilots. It's a lot of fun to watch when they beat the odds and make ace, and then look forward to flying with them in future missions.

Can the Java GUI support a font for the chalkboard that looks more handwritten? I'll look into it and experiment some...
The Lucida would be most appropriate for a Jasta chalkboard, no?

In the configeration setting it asks for the mission report directory...what do I out in this box so i can get automatic reports?

Also I too would like to see a scroll bar down the side of the ui as my resolution misses part off bottom 1440x900.

Oh also where is the startup cfg I have to alter to put that line in to get the auto to work?

Thanks

Oh great work again...my heart jumped a beat when I saw Be2 Fe2B etc etc when i saw opposing squadrons...god I wish

You can change the font of the chalckboard in the configuration menu by yourself...
I'm using this one called EraserDust and an old typewriter one called Adler for the mission description.
I have also changed the default paper backround with one of a higher res.

We've always been able to support fonts


EDIT: Elephant beat me to it

Oh also where is the startup cfg I have to alter to put that line in to get the auto to work?

I think its the one in your ROF/DATA directory.
Its startup.cfg.
Open it in wordpad and change the mission text entry near the bottom from 0 to 1 and save it

I'm just trying it now.

GREAT WORK Pat!

Thanks.

I would like to edit squad/ace default skins. What files do I need to change?
