Luftwaffe WW2 Career 1940-45 - Part02 BoB Updated Optional BF109E4 Missions for Odessa Owners

[kraut1]

 

NEW:

-Optional BoF / BoB Campaign Mission Pack converted to new BF109-E4 for Odessa / Leningrad owners

+slightly adapted 1940 Battle of France Mod vD for all BoF missions (Part01)

+slightly adapted 1940 Battle of Britain early Mod v02 for all BoB missions (Part02)

An already ongoing campaign with BF109E7 can be updated to BF109E4 without loss of campaign awards,

I have done this with my personal campaign.

 

 

This is my current pilot career

I will release the parts step by step after they are completed and I have flown the missions.

In IL-2 it is just 1 Campaign and the released missions of a new parts have to be copied into the existing campaign folder.

At the end I hope to have created a complete WW2 career from 1940-1945, but will it take ca. 1 - 2 years I suppose.

Each user / pilot can customize this campaign by adding self created missions, only mission naming syntax to be considered.

If a user / pilot does not own a IL-2 module that is used for a Part he can skip this Part or add self created missions.

The missions will be mostly generated with Easy Mission Generator by Vander or with my EMG Modifications.

How to be flown:

-with realistic settings

-without HuD, only cockpit view

-All information by Radio Messages

-Detailed description of mission design: see below.

-The Ailevels are low, but you have to survive many, many missions.

-All missions full missions from take off to landing.

-Mission flight time ca. 15minutes to 45minutes without time acceleration.

-Probability of enemy contact ca. 80% per mission.

UPDATED REQUIRED modification for Part02 (install with JSGME) 1940 Battle of Britain Mod v02:

https://www.mediafire.com/file/fy4rwq6wb0ip9x2/1940_Battle_of_Britain_Mod_early_v02.zip/file

Short description 1940 Battle of Britain Mod:

-Map Mod only with 1940 existing RAF airfields, airfields changed to grass runways, all 1941-44 airfields removed, Manston smaller new layout

-Spitfire MKIa/MKIIs Mod:

   -skin by Off_Winters (skin without cannons)

   -weapon mod by me: only machine gun sound; rate of fire of 20mm Hispano MKII reduced, so that the

     time for continuous fire is nearly the same as for the 0.303 Brownings (ca. 17seconds). Effect: reduced, but still effective volume

     of fire to simulate the 8 x 0.303 Browning 1940/41 armament. 

-British destroyer:

   (destroyer7) with Gleaves main turrets and 40mm Bofors / 20mm Oerlikon AAA

   destroyer skin by Off_Winters

-AI Mod (self made):

   increased open fire distance for AAA

   increased accuracy for novice / normal bomber gunners

   reduced max. fire distance for BF109-E7 (and Spitfire MKIa / BF110-C)

-Weapon Mod: reduced 20mm MG-FF standard HE shell for simulation of BF109E3

Updated with BF109-E4 AI Mod, AAA bots updated 

 

For OPTIONAL adaption of some details to BF109E3 (for Kanalkampf Missions)

-disable 1940 Battle of Britain Mod v02 in JSGME

-activate in the Mod the standard 20mm HE shells for the standard 20mm Oerlikon MG-FF:

rename /delete the xxx:

-replace the cockpit plate with the information concerning the E4/E7 Automatic Propeller Control with the Modded plate by

renaming /deleting the xxx:

(It's a german text, if this is not relevant for you you don't have to change, but I dislike a hint in a E3 for a automatic propeller controll)

-enable 1940 Battle of Britain Mod v02 in JSGME

And most importent: fly the BF109-E3 with manual propeller controll for realism!

   

   

General Note to avoid conflicts with other campaign downloads:

To fly this campaign will take a long time and of course we want to try to avoid the loss of the campaign results:

-If you install other campaigns, campaign packs or similar Battle of Britain Modpacks, please check that there will be no further campaign with the exact same campaign folder name "Luftwaffe-WW2-Career-40-45", otherwise your campaign could be overwritten.

-I suggest to make after each successfull mission screenshots of you current awards, and after each completed part of the campaign a screenshot of the Awards and the date in the filename. 

 

 

Further Information about campaign design / how to fly:

Suggestion how to fly the missions:

-I have flown each mission with Monitor or VR directly as campaign mission without testing.

-flight time: ca. 15-30minutes

-after enemy contact you can decide to fly home or to stay with your flight.

-but if you fly alone / seperated from your flight you will not be warned if the enemy attacks, better to return as fast as possible at low level...

 

 

 

 

General notes / information:

-Additionally installed in mission (+hints about german messages):

 

-Enemy plane reports by ground control (of course 1940 in BoF not accurate, only 10x10km grid from time to time)

example:

Hier ist Fuchs = Here is Fox

Nach Zielen suchen! = Search for targets!

im Planquadrat 1628 = In grid 1628

How it sounds for example in german:

Career / Campaign Description:

If you like you can add some data about your personal pilot into the "info.locale=eng.txt" file.

Example: of my 1st / current pilot:

(he will not be active until 1945, but maybe he survives as PoW or unfit for duty after being wounded)

 

Video of campaign BoB Mission:

Usage of the campaign / of campaign missions for other Mods, Mod packs, Campaign packs:

Yes, but ONLY with RENAMED CAMPAIGN NAME AND RENAMED CAMPAIGN FOLDER NAME!

Hi BaglanBoy:

 

You have 2 downloads:

The Campaign folder has to be copied into your IL-2 Campaignfolder:

No problem, I will soon publish the latest version of my EMG BoB mod,

you can create quick and easy allied and axis semi historic BoB missions.

And if you need assistance I could define some settings.

Hi Andrei,

I have uploaded the modified "EasyMissionGenerator-Battle-of-Britain-V01"

to be used together with the Battle of Britain mod.

https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/92449-early-normandy-1940-map-mod-v03a/

 

Please have a look here how EMG works in general:

https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/43276-il2-great-battles-easy-mission-generator/

https://sites.google.com/view/il2-great-battles-emg/home

 

Some hints:

Spoiler

The start settings are for a RAF Airfield defense mission:

When you start EMG the first time define the IL2 main folder and optional the Mission folder:

On the "Situation" you can choose the airfields, the fronts, date, time, weather, and by clicking on the map you can define the blue target area circle

On "Scenario" you can define the mission parameters.

You will find will many  Random or any options to make the mission interesting and unpridictable.

 

[YR-AndreiTomescu]

Thank you so very much!

Little question: if I install the BoB mod and the BoB mission generator with jgsme, then turn on the game mods, then it will work. And then if I turn off mods in the game start menu, the mods will be disabled, right?

But if I turn on mods again, they will be installed again, right? So I can use the game's mods switch to use the BoB mod on/off, right?

You are welcome.

The Mission Generator is a separate software. I myself have it installed in a folder outside of IL-2. But others install it with JSGME too.

What you mentioned about activating mods may work.

I myself have the mods in IL-2 always activated and I install them as required with JSGME.

The reason is, that I use many different mods and it is not possible to install them simultanously.

If you create now BoB missions with EMG I propose to use menually created mission folders that will not removed by JSGME when the mod is deinstalled.

 

[kraut1]

PROBLEM SOLVED!

URGENT HINT TO AVOID LOSS OF CAMPAIGN RESULTS:

PLEASE WAIT WITH THE INSTALLATION OF THE NEW MOD: 

"Battle of britain modpackv2"

BY INSTALLATION OF THIS MOD WITH JSGME THE CONTENT OF THE CAMPAIGN FOLDER WILL BE OVERWRITTEN!

-DO NOT INSTALL CAMPAIGNS WITH JSGME WITHOUT CHECKING THE CONTENT!

I WILL INFORM YOU WHEN THE MODPACK IS COMPATIBLE TO THIS CAMPAIGN!

PROBLEM SOLVED!

Edited October 13 by kraut1

[kraut1]

Issue solved: The newest version of 

"Battle of britain modpackv2"

is now compatible with this Campaign!

Please check if you have downloaded the newest version without campaign folder:

Thanks very much for your quick reaction @Sandinourcoffee6

[kraut1]

NEW:

-Optional BoF / BoB Campaign Mission Pack converted to new BF109-E4 for Odessa / Leningrad owners

+slightly adapted 1940 Battle of France Mod vD for all BoF missions (Part01)

+slightly adapted 1940 Battle of Britain early Mod v02 for all BoB missions (Part02)

An already ongoing campaign with BF109E7 can be updated to BF109E4 without loss of campaign awards,

I have done this with my personal campaign.

[YR-AndreiTomescu]

damn, im'm confused (it's my fault), but pls, help .....

so in order to play 

Battle of France and early Battle of Britain (Channel Battle  / Assault on RAF) 

i have to:

1. install with JGSME this:

https://www.mediafire.com/file/kfaxgt9nsb15xnw/1940_Battle_of_France_Mod_vD.zip/file

 

or this:

https://www.mediafire.com/file/fy4rwq6wb0ip9x2/1940_Battle_of_Britain_Mod_early_v02.zip/file

 

or both?

 

2. install manually by unzipping in Campaigns folder this:

https://www.mediafire.com/file/kd23rv5vjcd5uvg/Luftwaffe-WW2-Career-40-45-Part02-Part01-BoF_BoB-Optional-Missions-with-Odessa-BF109E4.zip/file

(i have odessa module), and both campaigns will be there.

(i have odessa module), and both campaigns will be there.

 

sorry to bother....

 

Sorry that the post is a bit confusing:

 

Mods required to play campaign parts 01 / 02:

-For part01 Battle of France install the Battle of France Mod vD with JSGME

-For part02 Battle of Britain install the 1940 Battle of Britain early  Mod v02 with JSGME

 

The campaign itself is installed manually:

 

The Main campaign folder Luftwaffe with the campaign settings  is in the first part:

.....\steamapps\common\IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of Stalingrad\data\Campaigns\Luftwaffe-WW2-Career-40-45

https://www.mediafire.com/file/4bn43hhi3yhjn4s/Luftwaffe-WW2-Career-40-45-Part01-Battle_of_France.zip/file

 

All further parts: only campaign mission packs. to be extracted / copied into the campaign folder Luftwaffe-WW2-Career-40-45.

 

Because you are a owner of Odessa I suggest that you download the new mission pack with the BF109E4:

https://www.mediafire.com/file/kd23rv5vjcd5uvg/Luftwaffe-WW2-Career-40-45-Part02-Part01-BoF_BoB-Optional-Missions-with-Odessa-BF109E4.zip/file

Copy all missions into your Campaign folder Luftwaffe-WW2-Career-40-45 (and overwrite the old BF109E7 missions)

 

I hope that it is easier to understand now.

Please come back to me  if it is still confusing.....

i dunno if the post is actually confusing, it's just that me who is confused.

so i get it, just one more thing: 

this:

https://www.mediafire.com/file/kd23rv5vjcd5uvg/Luftwaffe-WW2-Career-40-45-Part02-Part01-BoF_BoB-Optional-Missions-with-Odessa-BF109E4.zip/file

is to be ADDED to the France and BoB initial missions (with the E7) or it replaces them?

 

and what's much more important, 

thank you for your help, explanations, and for the tremendous work you and the others have put into this.

it's another huge step in transforming GreatBattles into what 1946 became : a complex, overhelming flight sim for WW2 pistons, at least concerning Europe maps.

For some the time and place really matters, because fore some it's more about reenactment than just fighting.

As i've said before, this project brings new horizons. and that's awesome.

You have my thanks and admiration.

Hi Azdack,

I have started (flight time only 1-3minutes) both the BF109-E7 version and the later BF109-E4 variant for Siege and Liberation (Odessa and Leningrad) owners.

Both missions were loaded and take off worked.

 

So my questions:

 

1.) Have you only installed exactly this mod: 1940 Battle of France Mod vD ?

2.) When did IL-2 crashed? Was the mission loaded? During the flight?

3.) Do you use maybe a very early version of Battle of britain modpackv2 by Sandinourcoffee6? If yes please check if in this modpack is a campaign with the same name?

 

Edited November 16 by kraut1

[Azdack]

Hello Kraut,

Thanks very much for your answers. Regarding your questions, my answers :

1.) Yes in Generic Mode Enabler into the right column I only have : 1940 Battle of France Mod vD.

2.) Il2 crashes once the red curser of loading mission arrives at the end of loading. Then I have a black screen for one or two seconds and then back on my PC desk.

3.) As Battle of britain modpack V2 I have downloaded the link above in your post : https://www.mediafire.com/file/fy4rwq6wb0ip9x2/1940_Battle_of_Britain_Mod_early_v02.zip/file. In the left column of JSGME I have another folder called : Battle of Britain modpack which is not activated because I want to play : 1940 Battle of France Mod vD but into this folder : Battle of Britain modpack yes I have a folder called : Battle of britain missions with following fivew folders in it : August 1940 eagle day and early months battles/August 1940 Hardest days/July 1940/prelude to the battle/ september 1940. This is a picture of my Generic mod enabler

Thanks for help

Okay, from what I understood is that it is that you have all required IL-2 modules and you have installed the correct Mods.

Maybe it is just bad luck, an incompatibility with some settings on your computer.

Because my campaign contains very many missions (for the next part 15 further are already completed), I suggest:

Delete the one problematic mission from your campaign folder and try to continue with the campaign. You will find many interesting missions.

 

My last idea to be checked: Have all 10 files of the problematic mission:

1940-05-11a-bof-bf109e3-offensive-reconn-mission.mission

the same date and time?

Hello Kraut,

Thanks for your proposal. I deleted and saved in a separate folder the 10 files from the mission not loading : 1940-05-11b-bof-bf103e3-escort (the 10 files are same date and time as you asked)  from campaign folder Luftwaffe-WW2-Career-40-45. Then I went back into the game to play both following missions 12a an 14a. And it works nice. Thanks again for your campaign. Great fun! Further question : once Battle of France plaid, to play next the Battle of Britain I'll have to go into JSGME and to push 1940 Battle of France Mod vD from right column to left column and to inversely push 1940 Battle of Britain Mod early v02 from left column to right column ? Thanks for your answer.

Thanks for your positive comments and that you like the missions!

Yes, after Battle of France is completed deactivate with JSGME the Battle of France mod and for Battle of Britain you have only to activate the latest Battle of Britain Mod that I have mentioned. In general the latest Battle of Britain mod is suitable for the missions until mid October 40.

 

And for the very late BoB missions (or Blitz) missions  with the new BF109-F1 (Stab and I./JG51) there will be a small extension of the BoB mod optionally required.

It`s already working and I have created/flown 3 campaign missions.

 

And additionally @Off_Winters is already working on a BoB skin mod that is compatible to the campaign.

 

And in general this type of campaign is something new, because it should cover the whole years until May 1945.

So I recommend to create from time to time some screenshots of your campaign results / awards to document your progress just in case that some issues happen with the campaign functionality.

In parallel I will work on some Dummy campaign missions that have the purpose to enable you to restore your campaign results in case that you have lost them due to some general IT reasons. (10 years ago I added my IL-2BoS results in the same way to my IL-2 1946 static / il2dcg campaigns) /

Three missions more plaid. Very nice. Thanks Kraut. I enjoy the voice warning of the presence of enemies in square xxxx. Very helpful!
