I./JG 51 over the Rzhev Salient - Fw-190 A3 campaign

[jeanba]

Exactly : In 1946, Attack My Target was ok to concentrate on a "box" and you could saturate Pe2 defenses (B17 were another problem though)

Here, it is very hard to distract your wingmen from the escort

[jeanba]

I finished the campaign and finally found a way to shoot down Pe-2 at low risks : shoot well and from long distance !

Sometimes I am damaged, but the engine is much tougher than liquid cooled engines, so I can go back.

 

Great campaign !

I wish there were an "instant success" in BoX (like 1946), because sometimes I crash my plane following high damage far from the airfield, the mission is a failure, but I woiuld count it like a success because I am alive.

I also think it would make life easier for campaign designers ...

I've released a 10 mission Fw-190 campaign on the Moscow map.

 

Thank you for the interesting compaign! Thanks to her my had the opportunity to study in the flight of Fw-190. Interesting plane. She also pushed me to study the history of the I./JG51 and the creation of skins, which I used in my game.

I've uploaded version 1.1 of the campaign:

 

http://www.axis-and-allies-paintworks.com/download.php?view.943

 

What's new?

 

- Missions are now compatible with game version 3.001
- Russian briefings by Kosman72
- Two new missions
- Added Yak7b and Hs-129 as AI plane
- Small improvements in some of the missions

 

IMPORTANT - If you already had the 1.0 version of the campaign installed, first delete the 'ctreecache' file in the 'IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of Stalingrad\data' folder before launching the game!!! This will update the mission list in the campaign menu and you will see the correct numbers in front of the mission names. A new ctreecache file will be created automatically.

Hi Juri, I downloaded your campaign from the first side of this thread. I have BOM. The install path is: data, Campaign, JG51über Rzhev Salient(Fw190A3). But I don´t see your campaign in the "Scripted campaign". You said that the campaign is updated to 4.501 version of the game. Do I need to buy Fw190A3 first to see your campaign?

When you've installed the campaign correctly, the path should look like this "...\data\campaigns\JG 51 Rzhev".

I've no idea if scripted campaigns are only visible when you own the required aircraft. But if you don't own the Fw-190A3 you won't be able to play the campaign anyway.

New version available:

http://www.axis-and-allies-paintworks.com/download.php?view.943

 

Changes:

- Fixed flares. Yellow flares were no longer working after one of the last updates.
- New smoke effects.

[Juri_JS]

I've updated the campaign to game version 4.701.

Changes:

- Adjusted weather and waypoint settings to the new clouds.
- Fixed a problem with some Ju-52 skins.
- Added some minor adjustments and improvements.

[Juri_JS]

The campaign has been updated to game version 4.703.

http://www.axis-and-allies-paintworks.com/e107_plugins/download/download.php?action=view&id=943

 

Update 4.703 changed the times of dawn and dusk, which required adjustments to some of the missions.

 

[Juri_JS]

The 5.001 update has partially messed up the skin assignment in the campaign so an update was necessary:

[Juri_JS]

The latest update once again broke the skin assignment, so an update of the campaign was necessary:

Moreover:
- all German fighters now have tactical codes.
- there are minor improvements to some of the missions.

Thanks again, Juri. If I have your permission, I would like to adapt this campaign into a cooperative one for my squadron and I could share it with the community if you agree.

You can try it, but a lot of rework will be necessary because all events only get triggered by the player aircraft.

Yes. At the moment I'm just working with first mission and I added some more player planes (3 flights of 4), and some more soviet planes. I added all planes at the triggers too and it seems it works well, but I'm still quite a noob with the editor and want to be sure it works ok. 

Thank you!

Juri_JS,
Thx you very much for this solidly programmed campaign for the Fw 190 A-3 (announced as prequel of JG 51 over Velikie Luki campaign). I liked the straightforward way leading into action of all missions (varied, immersive!) and that you give interesting historical background information.
It was a lot of fun playing this campaign - and my next will be I./JG 51 over Velikie Luki.
