Hi all;
I'm relatively new to the forum and wasn't sure exactly where to post this, so all I can do is hope for the best.
I joined the forum a little while back, but I haven't been able to get any flight sims for a very long time. Yesterday I finally go a copy of WOFF and set it up right away. I've run into one problem already, and I have a couple of other questions that I'll gladly repost elsewhere if need be.
Problem: I started one of the training flights and had fun riding around in the front cockpit. Unfortunately when we landed nothing happened. I couldn't figure out how to exit the scenario, and when I finally did the game crashed. I'm not sure what I did wrong and will appreciate any help I can get.
Question 1: Is it possible to run multiple campaigns, or am I stuck being French for the rest of the war (or the three weeks I survive)? I would really love to run several pilots from all sides at the same time, comparing their careers as they go.
Question 2: What is the best way to make videos? I've seen a bunch of good ones and would like to try my hand at it. Unfortunately I'm old and have a hard time figuring some of this stuff out for myself. Again, any advice at all will be appreciated.
Some people are born stupid. I've had to work hard my whole life to get this way. I'm proud of the job I've done

1) Ctrl-Q and then Enter quits the mission. You can enlist as many pilots as you wish and play multiple camapaigns for different units and/or sides. Oh, guys above were faster .

Wow! That was quick. Okay, I have all that noted, and I do appreciate it. Now I have to try another right now to see if I can get away without crashing.
I've been watching videos for so long now I can't believe I've actually started playing it.

Sailor_Steve, Welcome to the forum. Not sure if you know this, but there is a key guide available for all the commands in WOFF. See this post: Key Guide
"Take the cylinder out of my kidneys, The connecting rod out of my brain, my brain, From out of my arse take the camshaft, And assemble the engine again."

Yes, I knew about the key guide. Somehow my addled old brain didn't make the connection that it actually is a guide to what key does what. I keep hoping that some day I'll figure it out, but I have my doubts.
Anyway, I have it sorted now, and have three pilots all in training. I probably won't start the war in earnest until the TrackHat I just ordered arrives. So, a few more weeks of training and playing around with FSX and X-Plane 11.
One thing i noticed that I love: The creators know their source material and have a great sense of humor. No matter who you train with, the instructor's last name is 'Triggers'. Captain Owen Triggers was the flight instructor and later squadron commander in the 1977 BBC series 'Wings', about a young man who joins a BE.2 squadron just before the beginning of the Fokker Scourge. It's a pretty good show if you haven't seen it. Nice bit of trivia from the people who made this wondrous game.
