Lafayette Escadrille to 103rd Aero Squadron

Lafayette Escadrille to 103rd Aero Squadron - 03/24/20 11:34 PM

Hi guys,
I have a WOFF PE question. I'm presently flying in the Lafayette Escadrille in 1916. I was wondering if I get transferred automatically to the 103rd Aero Squadron or does the war end for me on February 8, 1918 when the Lafayette Escadrille was disbanded ? If not, it would be nice if the WOFF software guys worked into the program software an opportunity to either quit the war or enlist in the 103rd.

You sure have confidence, I have never had any pilot I started in 1916 make it to 1918. The game gets progressively harder as the planes improve.

Last time played the Lafayette Escadrille, my career ended when the Escadrille ended and did not transfer into the 103rd.

You can use WOFF Pilot Log Editor and transfer to 103rd manually - read enclosed manual.

And, one had to transfer. The Lafayette was a unit of Armée de l'Air, and the 103rd was in the USAS. Not only did one transfer from one unit to another, but to another air service.

JJJ65,

I found the pilot log editor JAR file that was posted in the forum three years ago but looking at the OBDsoftware folder files installed on my pc did not show the WOFF UE_Mission_Editor folder to drop the PilotLogEditor.jar file. Is this because WOFF PE does not have the folder or as in WOFF UE or is the folder hidden somewhere? Any help would be appreciated as I would like to eventually transfer my pilot form the Lafayette Escadrille to the 103rd per your suggestion to my post.

Starting in the L.E. in 1916 and getting to the 103rd!!! That's what I planned for my American-French Deep Immersion DiD character....he was dead by September 1916!

But, it's entirely possible that you're a more capable and cautious pilot than I wink

The latest version is available to download here . You do not need to extract it to WOFF UE folder, you can extract it anywhere to your local disc (to any folder as you wish) and run PilotLogEditor.exe file. Pilot log editor reads path to WOFF PE from Windows registry.

YIKES! When I ran the PilotLogEditor.exe I got a message from my Norton anti-virus program saying that this executable file had a heuristic virus and was blocked.

All of JJJ's programs, including the Pilotlog editor are safe. However, because they are executable files, they trigger a virus warning from your anti-virus program. You need to add it to your anti-virus list of permissable programs. I'm sure someone else will come along to verify this.

Hello JJJ,

Is the "Medal Editor" still necessary for the latest Pilot Log Editor too, as indicated in the Read Me? (Can't find any links for the Medal Editor, for some reason - but would be interested in trying it out.)

No, Pilot medals mod is not necessary, however recommended. It adds bar to received medals. I suppose it is available at Sandbagger's mod page.

As BuckeyeBob already answered - the exe file is safe, it was false positive AV warning. You can run PilotLogEditor.jar file instead, if you feel unsafe.
