No, we cant do this in Germany (Desastersoft is from Germany) according the law do official update, but it will be available as simply zip file ;). Soon.

Hah-ha!
Seriously ,your work here is very evident & as I said something like this should have been in the first release.I have gone with the "vanilla " JG2 camaign for the time being & enjoying it tremendously.I do not have a high end PC , but am experiencing no real problems out of the ordinary & am able to see all the details you'vepacked into the missions:

I have one other question however & it isn't a problem in the campaign , but of my own making:it seems if I put my aircraft on autopilot either too soon or too late after take off , my plane will endlessly circle my own aerodrome & all the others continue to target without me...This means I either have to catch up (maually - off autopilot) or abandon the mission.This has happened in othe campaigns as well & I can't figure out what the solution must be.Can you help me out?

where can i found the german tail .......

Give me one week, I need test all mission for JG2. For players now is finished, now working on AI skins.

nice work YoYo :)

thanks

I had exactly the same problem with the brakes and couldn't get my Hurricane to move and it eventually broke itself apart on the runway. Tapping the brakes key did nothing.

Turned out that it was my toe brake assignments in the config. When I edited them, they were stuck at 50% and inverted. When I clicked on left brake and pressed the pedal, they reset to the correct levels, and the same for the right. That shouldn't of made any difference of course as the Hurricane doesn't have toe brakes, but removing the 'invert axis' and stepping on them in the configuration fixed my problem, and I've flown the mission a couple of times now without any problems...

Edit: I flew the mission again later and the problem came back, but I found out that tapping the brakes key worked.

The answer is easy: don't use the autopilot with the exception of a few seconds at mission start.

This erring behaviour of the AI happened to me too, and there is nothing you can do about it, safe editing the missions and set the first waypoint action to 'follow'. Then you can use the autopilot.

When I brought that matter up in the German Ubi forum, Desastersoft stated my approach to solve this problem has potential unknown side effects and therefore they wouldn't change it, because they would have to playtest all the missions again.

Purchased & installed "Wick vs Dundas" yesterday. No issues whatsoever. Fired it up and flew the first Hurricane mission. Frame rates excellent even from detailed Northolt airfield. Airfields feel "alive" with vehicle traffic, buildings, other aircraft both static and aloft.

Intercepted lone He111. Will have to re-activate my Voice Activated Command (VAC) 3rd party software for wingman/flight commands -- too awkward to hunt 'n peck the menu while flying. Also have to remember to set gyrocompass on the ground before taking off -- it's so awkward doing it while flying!

Was called away from PC at mid-mission, so had to abort. I was advised by the sim that my mates are laughing at me and declaring me to be "a disorientated pigeon" for failing to land my aircraft! Nice touch! LOL

I'll see how frame rates hold up when encountering large formations further into this campaign. So far, it's playing very well!

Do any of them work? Besides Formation that is.

Are you going to do a "English" version of the "Channel Battles" ?

I have Helmut vrs Wick

But to have a non linear campaign would be graet

yes we work for the CB translate :)

Good question, Tintifaxl. Up until now, 100% of my CoD flying has been online. I'll have to try some offline Quick Missions just to check and see.

Anyone reading this is welcome to jump in here if you've tried offline menu commands already! :grin:

not properly as they should

Roger that. I was trying to get my wingman to attack the lone He111, but he seemed to be ignoring me like a proper git! LOL

THAT is GREAT news thxs.. Will buy when available :)

Nearly all of them don't work. Forget telling the wingies to do anything else than change formation and spacing.

we hope after summer, it is the translater work ;)

thanks buddy:grin:

nice review :)

I posted this on the Desastersoft fourm, also, but wanted to get any input other Cod players might have here.

The Squadron 111 Orientation flight is confusing, and getting frustrating.

Do I go to London when I'm told to, or continue the mission as briefed? If I go to London, what then?

This is my history with this mission:

1) Went to London, flew back to take off airfield. FAILED
2) Ignored London, flew the mission as briefed and landed at the destination. As my tires touched the concrete of the hangar, my plane jerked to the right and exploded. The plane in the hangar was undamaged. FAILED
3 Had mechanical problem right at Eastchurch and landed there. FAILED
4) Had mechanical problem right at Eastchurch and landed there. FAILED
5) Flew the mission, landed at the destination, was afraid to go into the hangar (see 2), got a message in German as I was taxiing in that I figured meant I had passed, then got a message to hit Escape to finish the mission. FAILED

I flew at 160mph, at 6,000ft.

What am I doing wrong?

Can You give number of this mission? It looks like some of bugs of CoD (like problem in hangar). Firstly remember - the main gol of mission is to life. If task will be finished or not isnt very important. You will have acces for next mission, not like in "old" Il2.

Yoyo,

Thanks, I was beginning to think I would never get beyond setting the compass. Tonight, I'll fly the next mission, and proceed from there.

As for the number you mentioned, I'm not at home right now, but it was the second Hurricane mission.

binky9

There are some text inconsistencies but for me does not affect the campaign. As with the orientation flight after reaching Ramsgate turn 270 heading towards London. The destination is Croydon field

I'm having trouble finding & accessing all the missions in any of the campaigns should I wish to skip over one or two.This option was available initially,but somehow disappeared now even after re-updating it no longer appears .Have I missed an option or what?

They did a couple of updates lately. Maybe some of those ar not yet translatet and therefore not available for you yet....

Campaign intro -> Chose Campaign -> Click New -> Lower Left Side there is a Button to choose a Mission with what you want to beginn!

Cheers
Thomas

Thanks Thomas- I just tried to do this with several campaigns & no button shows up...I can start the campaign(s) fine but cannot seem to access all the missions...just updated everything too...

This only works for the Channel Battles addon, as far as I know.

In my version with the last update of H.Wick vs JC Dundas no problem with this. Acces for all missions is present. Maybe updater problem? Or instalation not with administrator privilages if You use Vista or Win 7?

As to choosing a campaign missionThomas's advice is correct but from memory you can only make a choice of mission at the beginning of a new campaign. In otherwords whatever mission you choose to start from your career starts from that point.

Stukas with the Beta Patch 1.07 :)

That makes a lot of sense...no wonder I was having trouble doing it in the middle of a campaign.Thanks!
