Vasco - I think that I see the problem. Going to take a code fix to correct it. Thanks for the report.

10.2 is a small update. It fixes the bug that Vasco found and does ground starts for escort and balloon bust. No more air starts. It seems a simple thing but it was really pretty hairy, especially the escort. P.S. you should not have to restore anything on install. ROFCampaign should not del;ete either your campaign or your personal configs. Of course, you might want to back up anyway just in case I'm wrong .

It will probably be a little while before it is available on CombatAce or through the useful materials link. Give it a bit of time before you download. No luck getting it up on WoH.

V10.2
- Balloon bust missions now take off and land
- Escort missions now take off and land - this one was hairy
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed bomber take off (Thanks Vasco)
- Fixed bomber drop point

Say good bye to air starts!
Many many thanks Patrick

Pat, I have a question about about flying with Jasta 10 in September of 1917 stationed at La Petrie. I chose this Jasta because I wanted to try a career flying the DR.1. My first 3 missions were in the DR.1, but the 4th mission is in an Albatros D.Va. Is your CG set up so that it will assign us to various aircraft that the Jasta was flying at that time in history? And this is why I was put in a D.Va for this mission?

I have a question I keep forgetting to ask.

A week ago I flew a mission and ran into Manfred Von richtofen but he wasn't using his Red fokker skin, he had a regular default Dr.1 skin. Here's a picture

But I've seen other planes and aces using custom skins do you know why he didn't have his proper skin? I have all the packs installed from the ROF site.

The DRI was withdrawn from service after wing failures killed Gontermann and a couple of others, so that makes sense. What I am less sure about is that I do not have it coming back to Jasta 10. You get the Pfalz instead until the Fokker D.VII arrives (AFAIK Jasta 10 received them first). If somebody can provide me with correct information I will put the Fokker back in service with Jasta 10.

RedPiano: I am not sure how aces are correlated to skins. I thought it was by name but I am not sure. If somebody has definitive information then please lt me know.

One thing to consider is that RoF might be really accurate (we were in WFP for Red Baron). MvR did not always fly an all red triplane. He flew several, which varied from pretty much stock to partially red to the almost all red one in which he was killed.

Or his skin is just not getting picked up - hard to tell .

Probably Richthofen was just saving his skin ... in that day

Hi I have just started using this campaign generator. I have set the path for results to C:\Program Files (x86)\777\Rise of Flight\data, and have set mission_text_log = 1 in Startup.cfg.

However, when I finish a flight and click on 'Continue' and then click on 'Automatic AAR', I always get the message "No mission result sets - were results created for your mission?"

Do I need to complete the mission to have results generated? Sometimes I need to run to home base without completing it etc.

Any suggestions welcome thanks

I think that any press of "finish" will generate the results file. You don't actually have to land or do any specific thing.

RoFCampaign missions never have an "objective" that you are required to complete to continue. I always hated that in military sims. Just like in real life the objectives specified by the mission are a request (maybe a very firm request, but a request nevertheless). If you fail to complete them life moves on. Your objective is to fly, do your best, and try to come home.

With that in mind ... the first thing is to make sure that RoF is generating the results file. Check that first. Once you know that it is then make sure that RoFCampaign is pointing at the right directory - the one containing the results files. If both of those are true then this issue should be resolved.

What is the name of the results file? Thanks Patrick

10.2 is up at http://riseofflight.com/en/community/usefulmaterials

Point Blank - I honestly forget but hopefully somebody will respond. If not I'll tell you when I get back home.

First off, are you running Win 7 x64? If not, then you are using the wrong directory path.

If XP or any other flavour of Win (Vista, 7 32 bit) try C:\Program Files\777\Rise of Flight\data

As mentioned, go into the RoF\data folder and look for the dozens of text files below MissionParserLog.txt. Those are the mission files.

The War Plan Orange group is hosting the latest version now as well on our resources page.

http://www.warplanorange.net/resources

No login required! Hurray!

The results file name will be something like missionReport(YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS)[#], where YYYY=year, MM=2 digit month, DD=2 digit day, HH=2 digit hour (24 hour), MM=minutes, SS=seconds and #=a number from 0 to whatever. When you run a mission, it will generate many of these files for that one mission. For example, I have 21 of these files in my RoF data folder from one mission I flew. They are named: missionReport(2011-11-09_22-20-32)[0] through missionReport(2011-11-09_22-20-32)[20].

When you think you have the config set up correctly to generate these, ANY mission you fly in RoF (QMB, Pat's CG, beta Campaign, online MP) will generate these files. So you can test that they are being generated by starting a QMB or Fly Now mission for example. It is also safe to delete these files if you no longer need them.

I am running Win7 64-bit and my path is entered as: C:/Program Files (x86)/Rise of Flight/data

Just an FYI. If it's not working, try that.

@Point Blank: If it is still not working, if you are running under Windows 7 as a user other than Administrator, post back and let us know. There is more to do in that scenario.

The file name at that link is ROF_Campaign_V6.zip. Is that the correct file for 10.2?

No,

The only site that has it currently is the Warplan Orange link above.

Vasco

Pat,

Sorry no this is not the correct link for us at the moment. My web guy has been in the hospital so we have not changed the useful materials page yet.

The correct link for the latest Campaign Generator will always be this on our server:

http://www.777studios.net/ROF_Utilities/Pat_Wilson_ROF_Campaign_Latest.zip

Please pass the word.

Jason

Thanks for the correction Jason
