Modded DGEN Campaigns ~ANSWERED
« on: November 10, 2009, 11:19:54 PM »

I've got of copy of Battle of Europe and I promptly proceeded to modding it to give the new modded aircraft. Issue is it now doesn't load! Whenever I click to start a campaign it gives me a 'beep' sound.

All I've done is change the aircraft types in the appropriate files (DBs and plane files). Any ideas?

Sure!

Please have a look at my modded DGen campaigns, which do make intensive use of BOE. I pioneered the use of new slot aircraft with DGen back in 2008: see my Curtiss H-75 A2 campaigns.

What you are missing is probably the ClassesXXY.dat trick I discovered: you need to add a class to each new slot (eg FIGHTER, GROUND, JABO, LIGHT) in a ClassesXXY.dat file. Also you must choose the proper loadout based on the java code in the NameofDBPlanes.dat file.

All of my DGen work is available at M4T; more is coming: a bunch of new slots and modded maps... all enabled in DGen.

Thanks guys, that will save me the hassle. I though it was as simple as changing the plane names (got it to work once with another campaign) but obviously it's not!

And Boelcke, definately look forward to the update. Don't forget to include the new P-51s, modded B-17/B-24 and most of all the 109s :P
