PWCG 17.1.1 Oh, your squadron needs a plane.

[PatrickAWlson]

I got a file not found on download link: http://www.pwcampaignmanager.com/pwcgbos/web/PWCGBoS.html

 

Am I missing something or what is up?

 

Change is in progress.  I can get the old version back up tonight.

[Blitzen]

I'm currently set up with version1.1,& love it*,so I am curious what the new version you are working on will include or change?

(* Although I haven't been able to fly the Bf-110 insimple Fighter mode,so far only Ground support.)

Did you see this? http://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/18343-where-we-will-discuss-pwcg-bos/?p=322240

PWCG has a new address:

 

Download PWCG

 

I didn't get everything done but things had gotten to the point where there was too much content in one release, so here it is.  Note the new address.  It's a php file instead of plain html.  I made the change to put in a download counter.  

 

I have been flying test missions and I like the results, but you guys will test it more in a day that I can in two weeks.

Looking good Pat, thanks!

[Blitzen]

Muchas Gracias!

[BMW801]

Thanks, Pat!

[LLv24_Zami]

Flew 3 missions with JG53 with v1.2 and I must say it looks very promising. It seems that circling planes problem is gone and that is awesome. 

One of those missions was ground attack and waypoints near target area were much improved.

 

It was a brief test but I`m impressed with the progress made with this version 

[borris70]

Sound Perfect...cant wait to try it out this weekend.

And again thanx Pat.

[Bando]

Thanks Patrick, will try it out tomorrow.

[Jade_Monkey]

Cant wait for this weekend's big snowstorm to stay in and spend hours with the 1.2!

[borris70]

Been playing some missions now..

seems very very good.

This is promising...

[manfredrichtofen]

Thanks Pat!

[NN_Elanion]

Keep up the great work!

Great stuff Pat, you have put life into BoS just as you did for RoF.

 

See Bug report for Emil SG1 missions.

[Asgar]

1.2 is amazing! thank you for your hard work!

[LLv24_Zami]

Tested 4 more missions and it is amazing update!

 

I was wondering, would it be possible to mark current frontline to the in game map? 

[PatrickAWlson]

Sorry about that,  Shouldn't have left the shop with that bug.  Fix is in place and will be delivered next release, along with the armor and armored glass that Luke requested.

I'd like to see that as well. 

[Aurelius]

Thanks Patrick, realy great job!

I used your fist PWCG version 1.1 and now have installed the new one (1.2). It looks very nice and friendly.

Unfortunatelly I faced a problem with a Mission launching and was asked by PWCG to put ErrorLog text here.

I'm doing and hope that the problem is not critical and can be fixed.

Thank you in advance.

Hi Patrick,

 

Have reinstalled Java 7 x 64 and PWCG. Now all is OK.

Sorry for disturbing.

[Cybermat47]

I was wondering, would it be possible to mark current frontline to the in game map?

 

Yeah, bailing out and being shot to pieces by an enemy AAA emplacement because you didn't realise you were over enemy lines isn't exactly a good end for a career :|

[Blitzen]

In one of my campaigns I am continually chased home by many Russian fighters who refuse to give up,so I lead them over evry blue square (AA) I can find,,,,but they are never hit .When I cross the lines going the other way if I am relatively low I am bracketed & hit very quickly.Are Russian gunners that much better than Germans?

[Yogiflight]

Hi Blitzen, I think it is the same as with gunners. While the gunners in your aircraft are always sleeping and when the are shooting, they most times just shoot holes in the air, the gunners of aircrafts, you are attacking with your fighter are very often snipers, who shoot your eyes, out of fivehundred meters, with their back to you, aiming with a mirror.

Totally agree....

Although my observations are the same, i think this is eventually not true. Somehow it must be a matter of perspective. Same as the other lane in a traffic jam, which is always faster than the one you're in...

[Yogiflight]

Or my observation, that I always come to trafficlights when they just got red. Hope you are right martijn, because it is a bit disappointing when you have the feeling the game is always agaist you. But indeed I was in one of my latest missions warned by my gunner, that there is an enemy aircraft behind me. I am not sure that I did notice any time before.

[Ace_Pilto]

Hi Pat, all pilot models seem to be missing, not sure if this is at your end or a general BoS problem

[LLv24_Zami]

They`re missing when using autumn map. Or do you have them missing in all maps?

 

[PatrickAWlson]

Fixed in next release

[Ace_Pilto]

Sorry, I noticed after I posted that you already knew about it.

[LLv24_Zami]

Fixed in next release

That`s great, thanks!

[Cybermat47]

Fixed in next release

Good to hear

[PatrickAWlson]

The missing pilot is a funny one.  It is directly related to having incorrect seasonal options in a fall mission.  I used autumn extensions when there were no autumn extensions - you have to use summer.  So what the game did was default to winter, producing snowy buildings and snowy tire tracks.  OK, that part makes sense.  But it also removed the pilot ... 

[Ace_Pilto]

Do the pilot textures change at all? (Maybe they wear their long johns in winter or a thicker jacket?)

Good work on sorting that out. That pilot thing sounds really strange 

[Nicolaas5000]

Thanks Patrick, can't wait for the next release. Back to realistic screenshots, must say the 'ghost' planes did not go down too well for desktop backgrounds. I was actually back on ROF for a while while waiting for our pilots to return!!!
