VeteranenCampaign -- JG51 over Velikie Luki

[71st_AH_Mastiff 553]

when I do a strafing run, my AI wingman crash into the ground, mission #9

[ShamrockOneFive 1969]

Just got started on it and I'm really liking it.

 

Somewhat different from my usual as I see no waypoints laid out. Just the instructions to fly to and from the target. Still, having a very good time and enjoying flying the FW190 and also appreciating the map!

Hello Papa_Bear,

 

you have to unzip into the Battle of Stalingrad mainfolder, not in the campaign folder.

Thanks for the campaign. Everything worked just fine, had a lot of fun.

[ShamrockOneFive 1969]

Finished playing this the other day and gave my thoughts over here: https://stormbirds.wordpress.com/2017/07/15/review-jg-51-over-velikie-luki/

 

In short, its a fun, realistic, and challenging campaign. There's bad weather, worse weather and that's before the Russians try and ambush you!

 

Great use of the map and an interesting campaign.

[JG4_dingsda 124]

Thank you for reviewing the campaign, ShamrockOneFive. I added a link to it in the first post. I hope that is ok.

Been playing through this, loving it, especially the voice acting, which is fantastic, and proving an interesting challenge for my German. How/who voice acted this? Also, I think I've heard the term used in one or two of the lines, but what does the word(s?) that sound like "trobado" mean in German? I'm probably mishearing it and almost certainly miss-spelling it, but I hear it in this as well as Steel Division, Normandy 44 which has a line for movement orders that goes "Nach dem Jagd! Trobado!". Is it some sort of cheer? 

[sinned 120]

Thats "Horrido". Its LF's victory cry similar to "scratch one bandit" in which served to inform other units nearby over radio to confirm the transmitter's kill visually (when possible).

 

It originated from old German hunting dog command.

 

There are idiotic claims over the internet that the term is associated with a religious figure "saint horridus".

This is no such person.

[thenorm 86]

Aaaah, ok, thanks for clearing that up. Funny that Steel Divisions has ground units using it too, but good to have an explanation. Thanks for that.

With Veteran's permission I recompiled his excellent "I./JG51 over Velikie Luki"-missions into a scripted campaign. I hope you enjoy his missions as much as I did. Thanks Veteran!

 

Thanks for the interesting compaign on the new map for me! For myself, I made a replacement for the skins attached to the company. If anyone desires, it can also download my 4K version for the 2./JG51 and 3./JG51.

Thanks for sharing, FoxbatRU. I linked to your post in the OP, if this is ok for you.

[JG4_dingsda 124]

I recompiled the campaign for version 3.001. I did not have any time to playtest it though.

[Swing 94]

thanks dingsda

[dadaphil 26]

Thank you so much to save this nice campaign into 3.0.0.1. Looking forward to see more from you (and veteran). I am an old SP and playing only in VR.

Best regards

 

[Semor76 250]

Thanks mate.Will do some testings over the Weekend and report back.

Hi JG4_dingsda, when saving again each file, it is perfectly working. You have to do a review of certain hours in the morning that were clearer before the update and now are dark. In my campaign I had to correct a few hours for that reason.

I am merely the steward of these missions, trying to carry them along as BOX moves forward. As for @Veteran66: I'd enjoy it so much seeing him going at it again, alas, afaik he lacks the time.

I will have a look. Thanks for the info, Walter!

Thanks a lot Dingsda!

@Veteran66 I still enjoy your audios of the VL campaign in my private missions, thank you very much again! (although I do not understand anything of German ... but everything is for the environment´s mission)

[Corto 130]

Danke dir für das aktualisieren auf Version 3.005! Tolle Kampagne!

[taffy2jeffmorgan 62]

Hi, The first mission in JG 51 over Velikie Luki was one of the best Fw 190 missions i have flown, but it all ends there, because the second mission is impossible to play, i have no problem taking off in a 190, but the second mission all the flight seem to fly into an invisible wall and are destroyed ? i have tried many times and always with the same result, vert strange !!

so i was wondering if there is a hot fix to solve this problem

 

Cheers.

[Gordon200 176]

The skins are in a file labeled "Fw190A3" but the skins themselves are labeled "109" without a variant.

Not that there's anything wrong with that but you know how picky some people can be. lol

Excellent job. Enjoyable campaign.

[Voss 10]

I updated last version of the campaign today

 

I tried mission 2 ( mission 1 immersion was excellent ) but my FW and all other FW crashed immediately before taking off . My plane crashed a few second just after pushing the throttle.

 

Can someone help me to solve this bug ?

I totally agree; excellent campaign. I have played it some time ago. Unfortunately, after a recent update the 2nd mission is not playable anymore since all FW190 seem to crash into an invisible wall. @Gordon200: Did you not encounter that problem or did you find a way to solve it?

I hope Dingsda  finds the time too look into this...

Yup, I have the same bug. This is the only scripted campaign installed. Also frontline borders are still broken.

I uploaded a new version, where I moved the start a little upfront. It ist possible to start and land (east to west) again and continue with mission 3 afterwards. This is only a temporary solution. I am still searching for that strange invisible object...

I think this is by design.

Hi Dingsda, thanks for the update; great that you found a workaround for the crash on take-off.

Yes, you are good to go.

See OP, it's 1.04b.  

[jeanba 55]

Mission 2 is working well with latest 1.04b

Something from one of the last patches broke the campaign. I´m unable to get my bird in the air. The slightest rudder input kicks the players plane off the runway. I did a quck test in QMB with the FW190, all works normal. So, it must be some of the campaign parameters.

I came to the conclusion that _every_ patch breaks something in this campaign.

Thanks for letting me know, Semor. I'll have a look at it.

Hi

 

I am on the last mission of the campaign and strange things happen :

Some FW do not takeoff

Though I shoot down several enemies and land, I do not have "success"

 

Is this normal ?
