Official Free Historical Campaign "Wild Mustangs" - P51D

[wiscstar]

Hey, Jaegermeister,  I started running your Wild Mustangs campaign and found that all of the skins for the 370th FG are locked out.  What's going on?  Is there a bug in the campaign files?

Have you got "custom skins" selected in the game settings?

 

Failing that, you might want to repost in the  approriate section of the forum rather than Skins and Templates. Another player reported an issue with skins not showing there for which a fix exists.

Hey... you are right, there is an error in the "settings" file and the skins should not be locked. I will send in a correction for the next update.

Perfect campaign, Jaegermeister! I looked forward to each mission until I reached the base and started the next one. Really great work. I can't wait for the next one! The review in Czech only is here: https://www.alan-grey-page.cz/recenze-wild-mustangs-jaegermeister/

Thanks, hopefully that skin assignment issue was cleared up a while ago! That's still one of my favorites, although it's a toss-up with the B model in Overlord.

I started to refly the campaign today and i see the planes appear with the default skin without markings.

I checked into it and you are correct. The first 4 missions do not have updated skin settings since the skin names were changed on the P-51D a while back. I have corrected the assignments and I will submit the corrections very soon.

 

Thanks for the report!  👍

@Jaegermeister Followed your recommendation and started playing this campaign. 8 (I think) missions in so far. Really great work. A really immersive campaign. Love all the extra visual details and mission variety. Particularly liked the mission with the early morning formation take off with landing lights in the dark, then flying into the sunrise above cloud level. Beautiful!

I'm even warming to the mustang and the better ballistics of the 50 cals. Though I do miss disassembling enemy planes with 20mm.

Thanks, I am happy to hear you are enjoying it. The Mustang B model is my favorite plane, but the D Model is a close second. It's almost so good that it's boring, LOL.

 

The corrections to the skin assignments are not in yet, but should come with a few other updates soon.

Yea I noticed some of the missions don't have the custom skins.

 

I'll be trying the Overlord campaign next for sure.

 

A couple of times now I've noticed a locomotive speed up once it's damaged and detached from its carraiges. It speeds up until I struggle to keep up with it, comes of the rails and continues driving through fields until it hits something. I've seen this happen outside your campaign as well. Seems odd, not sure how realistic it is 😂

I hope you enjoy Overlord, It's my favorite Campaign to date. I may have to rework it one day when I have time since I continue to learn more about the ME all the time and some things can be improved.

 

The runaway train engine is a known bug. It has been thoroughly reported and should be on the list to be corrected somewhere.
