For me and for offline, HSFX is much better than UP1.8 just because UP1.8 is mainly HSFX plus some additional content, but not totally compatible yet (Lots of non working additions, even some that worked flawlessly in HSFX), and a paramount omission: the campaign addon in HSFX, not present in UP1.8 , is the best addon in the whole package for an offliner.

I think that UP1.8 is in fact hiding the amazing quality work that HSFX team did to the community(Off course I understand that that was not their purpose; probably it was even the opposite, acknowledge HSFX results making it their main core). But I find it really unfair; HSFX set of mods,all clean of mistakes and incompatibilities, stands out as a much more "professional" way to do than any other mod team.]]> Sat, 21 Nov 2009 02:58:05 PST http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/2905333.html#Post2905333 http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/2905306.html#Post2905306 zxwings

The two images are quite fascinating .

It's disappointing that such game data as a certain gun's muzzle velocity in IL2 have never been made public. ]]> Fri, 20 Nov 2009 22:49:17 PST http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/2905306.html#Post2905306 http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/2905165.html#Post2905165 Hairog

Huh. I answered you earlier. Oh well. I do it again.

All of the campaigns and missions that I will produce from this storyline will be 4.09m vanilla install.

If it works out well then I will mess with some mods. Especially the new maps and flyable planes.

Chapter Two

May 6th, 1946
West Berlin falls

May 11th, 1946

Online Map 2 represents West Germany
Two missions
The Soviets onslaught continues with the newly formed NATO Alliance barley able to catch it's breath. 2 missions of trying to stop and protect fleeing NATO forces.

May 19th, 1946
Two missions
Online map 1 represents an area near the Belgium and German border.
Resistance starts to stiffen and the Soviets receive a bloody nose.

May 24th, 1946
Ardennes Map
Three missions
The French make an all out heroic stand and halt the Soviet forces for a few days. The Soviets halt and regroup before pushing on.

June 6th
NW Europe map
Four missions
The NATO strength starts to gather and newer equipment starts to show up on the battle field. The Soviet forces are actually held in check at a few crucial bridgeheads. Paris falls but the French fight on along with their NATO allies.

June 12
Normandy map
5 missions
The navy joins the fight and stops the Red Army at the shoreline using massive firepower from battleships and an air superiority battle breaks out over who will control the French coastline. A massive attempt by Soviet forces to destroy the NATO naval power preventing their ground forces from advancing are launched. The naval forces launch counter attacks on the Soviet airbases and ground forces.

July 9th
Online Map 4 represents the Spain/French border, The Pyrenees Line
8 missions
According to Plan Griddle envisioned by the Joint Chiefs of Staff ... this is the last line of resistance. The retreat is over and they shall not pass. The Soviet forces slam into the Pyrenees Line and try to hammer their way through.
Both sides pull out all the stops and use all their collective wonder weapons in an attempt to bring defeat to their opponent. Nothing is held back and anything that can fly, roll or crawl is put into the fight. The two heavy weights go toe to toe with no quarter given. Hay makers are thrown and damage is taken but there is no knock out blow.

August 7th, 1946

A breakthrough had occurred in atomic weapons technology by NATO scientists and the W-9 Artillery shell program is modified towards making a 1000 lb 15KT bomb. 4 of these bombs are produced at great expense. This bomb has the same destructive ability as "Fat Man" but 1/8th the size.

At the same time Naval aviation designers are modifying the GO 229 with the capability of being launched from an aircraft carrier and have the capability of delivering the new W-9 atomic bomb.

British MI-6 urges a desperate plan and NATO comes in through the back door of the Baltic and launches 2 GO 229s from the CV 10 USS Yorktown carrying modified W-9 atomic warheads.

Minsk and Warsaw no longer exist.

Both are key supply and rail hubs. As invisioned by MI-6, three Soviet armies are caught in transit. 2100 tanks and 250,000 men women and children are incinerated by two GO 229 stealth bombers sneaking in under the radar and two 15KT W-9 atomic warheads.

The first major Soviet offensive is halted and both sides dig in.]]> Fri, 20 Nov 2009 16:12:52 PST http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/2905165.html#Post2905165 http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/2905004.html#Post2905004 Ramone43

Had identical problems with DGen campaigns after upgrading to AVG Free 9.0.

Replaced AVG Free 9.0 with Microsoft Essentials (also free) -- DGen back to normal.

Are you by any chance using AVG Free 9.0? I had the same DGen problems after installing AVG Free 9.0.

Uninstalled AVG 9.0 and replaced with Microsoft Essentials (also free) - back to normal.

It's still something that should have been sorted long ago. You have no braking control once your rudder is shot out. Can't think of a time when you could use it more, overall poorly simulated.]]> Thu, 19 Nov 2009 20:22:26 PST http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/2904619.html#Post2904619 http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/2904516.html#Post2904516 wheelsup_cavu

Record a track and host it someplace, I'll download it and let you know what fps I get.]]> Thu, 19 Nov 2009 09:39:27 PST http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/2904225.html#Post2904225 http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/2904187.html#Post2904187 J30_OttO
