Thank you for this work Monty...Awesome just Awesome

[SpongeBob]

I've been trying the first french campaign: 1914_Demarcation.
Until now I've flown the first five missions, and I have to say it is really nice, having the opportunity of flying some of the very first planes used in the war. The planes are extremely slow and underpowered, but Monty managed to create very funny missions. It is a real nightmare to shoot with the Nieuport-N4 (just a machine gun firing upwards, no aiming point, no idea where the bullits will end...), but it is really fun.

The only strange thing I found is that in mission 2, the three Farman 11 that should be escorted don't manage to takeoff. They first one crashes at the beginning of the airfield, and the two following planes crash with the remains of the first one. I tried several times to fly the mission, and always happens the same.

However, it doesn't really matter because you can forget the Farmans, fly by yourself and finish your mission without problems.
Maybe I'm missing something to make AI pilots smarter!!!

Thank you again for this fantastic set of campaings.

First, thank you for bringing WWI to CUP, all efforts much appreciated.

The first single missions I flew, in the DE and RN single mission sets, worked fine, but I had trouble with the FR, GB, and RU sets. The problems included the absence of designated player aircraft (this will result in things like Forager's flooded landscape), and the trouble with aircraft spawning in mid-air, then immediately crashing, in the GB missions.

Yesterday I learned the apparent cause of these problems, at least in my own CUP installation. I was in the habit of having PAL's #CUP_MissionProCombov4122 activated in the JSGME. In an exchange of PMs with someone, I learned that MissionPro should be DE-ACTIVATED, and that #CUP_Forgotten Countries should be ACTIVATED. I tried this, and now ALL of Monty's DOF missions, including those in the GB sets, are working exactly as they should. No more weird landscapes, no more stunt-spawning.

Once again, many thanks to Monty 27. 

[Forager]

OK, thanks EHood, disabling the QMB got the briefings back but still mission failure as noted above in french, Russian and RFC campaigns.
EDIT!!: THESE PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN SOLVED BY Ehood IN THIS POST (post #10):https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,48375.0.html

I did a "just in case" removal and reinstall of the campaign download prior to the above.
The German campaign worked properly before and after the reinstall.
Any help appreciated.

Hello Monty,

I just installed PT 1 of the #DOF campaigns for CUP.  I had , up to this point, been flying your WWI campaigns in NTFM DBW 4.10;  great to see them in CUP...thanks.

Regarding the CUP campaigns, #DOF campaign The Scourge in particular, I am getting this error message "Mission Loading Failed Landscape" Loading Error for all related maps ('WWI_EnglishChannel/WWI , Belarus1916,Somme...).  (BTW, I have been getting the same type of message for the #WAW Four Days in June and BOB from Hangar 19).

Although I've seen these error messages with different versions of IL-2, I can't recall the fix.  I am up to date with all the CUP installs.  I see the maps in FMB but don't know what to do.  Please point me in the right direction.  Thanks.

OK,  EHood has done it again.
His post here (it is post #10): https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,48375.0.html solved all my problems posted above.

A couple of days ago I learned that in addition to the recommended Difficulty settings, an item in the JSGME, #CUP_Forgotten Countries, should be ACTIVATED.

I've also learned that another item included in the JSGME, PAL's #CUP_MissionProCombov4122, something I'd been using since I put together my CUP installation a few weeks ago, should NOT be activated.  Once I'd de-activated this, and activated Forgotten Countries, ALL of Monty's DOF missions began to work perfectly.

 EHood, THANK YOU! YOU have really helped me.

This place is good, someone always has a solution.

[lyteyr]

Thanks Forager.  I disabled #CUP Pal Combo and enabled Foreign Countries, but am still getting the Mission Failure Landscape message.  It must have something to do with the Mapmods.  Hopefully, someone will come up with a fix.  Thanks again.

Thank you, Forager. Credit where it's due, I did receive the advice from Monty, who's been extremely busy over the weekend.

[whizkid]

As I have said, time and again - Your problem is due to Difficulty Settings - REALISTIC TAKEOFF AND LANDINGS is required.  Please look at your Difficulty Settings again.

Those settings are all as required, Monty. The problem was solved by activating the CUP Forgotten Countries choice in JSGME and that's all, as per Reply 27 by EHood. Now all is well and I can enjoy your superb Campaigns and Singles! Thanks, Monty.

[lyteyr]

Hello,

I am not sure which responses go to what issues, but for me, All Monty's DOF campaigns are giving me the Mission Loading Error Landscape message, which I am sure has to do with either maps or textures.  I have included a log file in my 9/13 post.  I have all the CUP maps installed, all the DOF parts installed, and all Monty's difficulty settings set.  I have deactivated CUP Mission Pro and already had CUP forgotten countries activated.  I cannot get past the load screen.  Can anyone help me.  Thanks!
