WOFF PE Realistically populated airfields mod v 1.0 available here .
Check the readme file included and follow included instructions to enable/install the mod, please.
NOTE: I did not have enough time to test it thoroughly (just three missions sofar), so any bug/improvement reports are welcomed.
Enjoy.

Hallo @JJJ65,

a short question:
Mode-Enabler okay, after facilities-mods 0,1,2,4 okay.
But is it possible to use it without ME? What would be the consequence?

Thanks for answer!

No, Mission Editor is responsible for placement of historically correct planes and units on airfields before each campaign mission. Without ME you will not get correct planes on airfields.

Thanks Jara!
Should this mod be installed before installing custom airfield mods? I’ve noticed orientations and locations of the dromes have changed after installing it last. I guess global layer I set to vanilla WoFF locations.

No, it should be installed after. See attached readme, pls.

Thanks Jara. In that case this mod overwrites the locations and orientations of the custom airfield mod. Would there have to be a separate mod with modified global layer to retain the locations of the airfield mod, or is there an easy fix?

No, this mod is (or should be) based on custom airfields mod. In fact, it uses data from custom airfields. However, I may be wrong. Can you provide me , pls, with airfield names that are overwritten? I will check it.

Well, maybe it’s just me then. When I installed the mod there was a warning with a list of files being overwritten, which I assumed was normal. I’m flying from Auchel in Flanders. Before the mod, the airfield was positioned for take off in the southerly direction. After mod installation I’m taking off in the west direction. Also, the entire airfield was moved away from the forest. Before, it was right adjacent to it. I don’t know about other airfields.

Do you have the consolidated airfields mods active or are you using stock WOFF airfields?

Consolidated. That’s what this is about. Jara just said his mod is designed for the airfield mod.

Let’s not ignore the most obvious reason. It could be just me. scuseme
No one else seems to have this problem.

Location and positioning of arfields is defined in period's global_layer.csv files and I have used these files from WOFF PE 2 - Consolidated Periods and CampaignData Mod by RJW, so it should fully conform to this mod. Did not you compare airfield location pre and post Consolidated Facilities mod? My mod does not modify airfield locations in any way.
Let me check related files today, pls.

EDIT: Just compared both airfields and both are the same (the same coords, headingand elevation):
Quote
airbase 1 N50*30'41.5002 E2*29'30.0002 0 44.196 Auchel / Lozinghem 112 France WW1 usa ---- 1917+6 Consolidated Periods and CampaignData Mod
airbase 1 N50*30'41.5002 E2*29'30.0002 0 44.196 Auchel / Lozinghem 112 France WW1 usa ---- 1917+6 Realistically populated airfields mod

So, there seems to be something wrong with your mods installation than? Because WOFF PE vanilla airfield looks as follows:
Quote
airbase 1 N50*30'51.0000 E2*29'58.0000 112 44.196 Auchel / Lozinghem 112 France WW1 usa

You can see that airfield coordinates differ, as well as airfield heading.
Either you were flying from vanilla airfields before or you have installed the mods incorrectly.

Triple J, we're not in 1917+6 yet.
Check 1917, you will find that it is indeed:

airbase 1 N50*30'51.0000 E2*29'58.0000 112 44.196 Auchel / Lozinghem 112 France WW1 usa - which is the same as vanilla WoFF

Thanks for looking at this insignificant item. salute

You are right, Fullofit. However, I do not understand how that happened, because these csv files were generated/copied from Consolidated mod by software - no manual alterations confused .
But, anyway, I will generate corrected csv files and respective gls libraries tomorrow. Accept my apology, pls, and thx for pointing me to this bug,Fullofit.

No worries Triple-J. I'm glad you can fix it. In fact, is there a way to make sure the locations/orientations of the 'dromes remain the same throughout all periods? Obviously something that can be done with a "click of a button" as opposed to wading through all global layers and checking visually. Yuck!
Thanks for all your hard work!
