Tough to have a Midway campaign where you can only run scrambles . . .


Nimits, I am in contact with the Russian guy who is working on the new DGen.exe. If you want to make a list with the problems you encountered when working on your True Pacific campaign, I can send it to him, maybe some of them can be fixed.

I'm happy to hear that. Hopefully he will incorporate the maps - Bessarabia, Slovakia, Solomons and a few others. Anyway, I keep my fingers crossed for this project.

I think he said he is externalizing all the data, planes, map nodes, etc so that users can maintain that part in the future.

That would be an awesome development.

At the moment I can give no guarantees, but if the plans to store the map data in external files succeed I will try to do a campaign in the Solomons (and maybe New Guinea) - but only if the many restrictions in the PTO part of DGen allow a realistic campaign.

How about a campaign in the MTO map, the one with Tobruk in the centre? I'm so sick and tired of that Sands-of-Time fictitious map smile

Is this MTO map being mentioned a modded map? I don't remember it being part of the official version.

No matter what it still sounds like a cool DGen campaign. thumbsup

Wheels, I don't use any mods and I have this map, so it must be a part of the official version. I don't think the name Tobruk is mentioned on the map but one can clearly see that it's Tobruk smile Up north there's something which looks like Crete and the southernmost part of Greek mainland.
