Thanks!!

[Jade_Monkey]

Great stuff!

 

Any chance you'll add the new campaign format?

 

It's fairly easy, just add a number before each mission to make sure they show up in order, and then add images if you want...

[Juri_JS]

As a campaign the missions wouldn't make much sense. There is no cohesive background story, every mission is for another unit and flown from a different airfield. It would be better to create a Sturmovik campaign completely from scratch.

I see, that makes sense!

I've uploaded my 'Sturmoviks over Stalingrad' mission pack for BoS. There are fourteen missions in the pack for the Stalingrad summer, autumn and winter maps.

Installation:

1. If you have an older version of the mission pack installed, first delete the old 'Sturmoviks over Stalingrad - by Juri_JS' folder in the Missions directory .

2. Place the 'Sturmoviks over Stalingrad 1.3 - by Juri_JS' folder from the 'Sturmovik1.3.zip file' into the games Missions folder (...Sturmovik Battle of Stalingrad\data\Missions\).

 

 

And some screenshots from the missions:

 

 

 

 

 

 

The addition of VR prompted me to return to BoS after a long absence, and I just discovered your mission pack.  Outstanding!!! What is your source for the historical background of the missions?  Was there a Soviet Il2 equivalent to Hans-Ulrich Rudel who described his missions?  If you ever decide to create a mission pack or campaign for this sim, please sign me up! Thanks again.

[Juri_JS]

What is your source for the historical background of the missions?

Most of the missions are based on events described in "Il-2 Shturmovik Guards Units of World War 2" by Oleg Rastrenin.

Hi Juri_JS, I copied the folder Sturmovik1.3.2 to my  "...\data \ Missions" folder, but after starting the simulator in the missions menu I see only the title of Your folder and no missions appear. I have the version 2.009d of il-2 Sturmovik - Battle of Stalingrad, I miss something ? Thank you.

You need to copy the "Sturmoviks over Stalingrad 1.3 - by Juri_JS" folder to your  "...\data \ Missions" folder.

[ludwiggigispe]

 Hi Juri, Thanks for the answer. I did as you say, but the result is the same. I fear there is incompatibility with my version. Thank you.

[Juri_JS]

It should work in the latest version of the game if you have either the standard or premium version of BoS. Have you checked if any mission files are in this folder "...data\Missions\Sturmoviks over Stalingrad 1.3 - by Juri_JS". There should be nine files per mission.

[71st_AH_Mastiff]

is there a scripted campaign version yet?

[Juri_JS]

No. See post #50.

[71st_AH_Mastiff]

ok Mission #2 I make it all the way back land on the airfield and mission failed because I took a lot of damage from a AA gun. ;(

[Juri_JS]

Unfortunately there isn't much I can do about it. Recognition of successful landings is something that needs to be reworked by the devs.

missions I been recording..

[71st_AH_Mastiff]

Im having an issue with Mission #9 I keep getting shot down by the Flack gun disables my elevators every time 

[Juri_JS]

I've just finished Mission #9 without any problems. So I guess you were just unlucky.

 

Try to use the correct tactics when attacking flak defended areas. After an attack run escape at low altitude and high speed. Never turn our climb when you are still within the flaks range.

 

 

By the way, thanks for the videos. I was finally able to watch the first one after my fast internet connection was enabled today. I had to spend the last weeks with a painfully slow connection after moving to a new town.

THX, very good historical campaign, Now I  played v1.3 on 2.010. I had no problem with functionality.

I have over 500 hours of LW flying time, mainly attack and bomber aircraft.

 

Just today I took out all 3 of the IL-2's with a couple different load outs each. It is a fun aircraft mainly due to it's wide array of weaponry. Smooth and simple flyers. 

 

But was disappointed when looking over the scripted campaigns for a IL-2 one... then realized I need to check the single missions and here I am. 

 

I think this will be my new "actually enjoy the friggin game in between long hours of working on missions" play time. 

[Juri_JS]

FoxbatRu has translated the missions into Russian.

 

The Russian language files can be found as attachment at the end of the first post. They have to be to be copied into the 'Sturmoviks over Stalingrad 1.3 - by Juri_JS' folder.

[FoxbatRU]

I recently finished the game in this mission pack. Thank you!The mission is interesting and allows you to learn a lot about the IL-2. Including from the historical information.

 

Despite the fact that the plot does not connect one airfield or pilot, I think it would be great to transfer this package to the company's version. There, statistics are kept and the condition of a new mission can be put only after success in the previous one.

 

Juri_JS, I do not know how much this is laborious. But if you have a desire to return to this package after a BoK, it would be very good!

 

I played without markers and GPS. If you change something, please increase the radius of the waypoints so that without a marker you can not miss in the area where there is no reference to the landmarks.

The Sturmovik mission pack has been updated to game version 3.004:

[jeanba]

I really loved this set of missions, and I advise all players who did not do it already to download and play them !

[Skipper-]

Does this set of missions work ok with 3.005? Thanks.

[Juri_JS]

It was updated to 3.005.

[FoxbatRU]

Once again, I played with pleasure in this set of missions. In a career, there is no hunt for a train that rides. And wingmans by badly attacking tanks.  But everything is fine here.
