Polenfeldzug 1939 / Kampania Polska 1939

For modded IL-2 1946 4.11m and above and Asura’s DGenMOD 2.1.

This is my first campaign for IL-2 1946, and it has been under development for a very long time!
I started the historical research in December 2015 and had the first version up and running in February, 2016.
But since there were many important airfields missing I got permission from Uzin to make edits to his Poland_1939 map.
This was a huge undertaking and made me busy between September 2016 and May, 2021, when it was released.
Other important stuff that was needed was the "Polish Cavalry" and the FokkerFVIIB3m.
Mission_bug was very helpful and made it possible to release the "Polish Cavalry" in August, 2016. For the Fokker F.VIIb-3m Frankenplane I had gained enough knowledge to be able to release in June, 2019.
So making this campaign involved learning DGenMod, Map editing, GMax, 3ds Max 2018 and basic Java editing.
And during the campaign building DGenMod evolved from 2.0.5.0 to 2.0.6.0 and lately to 2.1.0.0 with new features and new possibilities.
My first intention was to make a normal DGen type of campaign, but then I switched my mind and turned for a more historic accurate one.
My goal was to include as many missions as possible, flying for a squadron at the correct time of day, to the correct target area and facing similar opposition. Because of lack of historic information those historic missions are mixed with "best guess" type of missions, where the target area is to a likely area, but with the date and time and opposition may not be historically correct.
I've been play testing the campaign since June, 2021 generating every campaign mission to find bugs, so it's thoroughly tested, in VP Modpack.

Campaign Information
The Invasion of Poland, also known as the September Campaign, Polenfeldzug or Fall Weiss. The German invasion began on September 1st 1939 and the Soviet Red Army's invasion of Eastern Poland started on September 17th. On October 6th, following the Polish defeat at the Battle of Kock, German and Soviet forces gained full control over Poland. 
This campaign was built in VP Modpack and 4.12.2m, other game versions and custom builds might also work.
There are also new Polish squadrons from 4.13.2 included and the installation is set-up with #SAS as your mod folder, so if you would like to install to another mod folder you have to change that.
NOTE: This version is NOT compatible with BAT WAW! A BAT WAW version is being worked at and will be released as soon as it's ready!
DGenMOD 2.1.0.0 is fully compatible with Il-2 Sturmovik version 4.11 m or above.
In DGenMOD 2.1.0.0 allows you to more accurately reproduce the conditions for historical missions. This feature allows you to set up missions to specific target areas at a specified date & time and with specified weather. Transfer missions only allow for mission date and the new airfield, but it's not possible to specify time and weather.
All campaigns should have correct airfields and transfers and most of the missions are based on historical conditions.
The Polish air force often changed airfields, and all of them are not included in the campaign, only the important ones.
These planes are used in the campaign:
BF_109C1
BF_109D1
BF_109E1
BF_110C1
Do17Z_0
Do17Z_2
FI_156
FokkerFVIIB3m
HE_111H2
HS_123A1
HS_123B1
He45
JU_52_3MG4E
JU_87B1

Screenshots
In some of the screenshots are not the final skins used.













































Requirements
This dynamic (DGen) campaign includes Asura’s DGenMOD 2.1.0.0, required with all of its files as included. As a consequence, this is a standalone campaign: do not try to play it at same time with other DGen campaigns (you can play static campaigns, though).
Other versions of Asura’s DGenMOD, different from that contained in this pack will not work!
The following planes, maps and objects are not included in VP Modpack, so you have to add them:
He45
JU_87B1
P_7
R_XIIID
RWD_8
RWD_14
FokkerFVIIB3m
Poland 1939 Map including the latest patch.
Poland_1944 map including the latest patch.
Poland_1939 Map update v.3
Polish Cavalry
PS_Stationary Planes mod (from this download you need to add: JU_87B1)
Windsock Moving ver 1.0

Installation
Since this campaign does alter stock files, and replaces DGen.exe and some Asura’s files with custom ones, it is recommended to install (and remove, when finished) by Jone Soft Generic Mod Enabler. So open the 7z-file and extract to your JSGME folder in the IL-2 1946 main folder and activate through JSGME.
When done, opening menu to start a new career for Luftwaffe, you’ll see listed “Polenfeldzug 1939”. To play for Poland select "Polish Campaign 1939" (Kampania Polska 1939).

Since this is my first IL-2 1946 campaign and I'm planning least 3 more campaigns, feedback and suggestions would be very welcome.
Also historic information that would make this campaign more accurate would be very welcome.

Error - can't open location file DGen\PolandWP_pl.dat
Can You help?

[vonOben]

Hi

Are you running IL-2 1946 in Polish?

Error - can't open location file DGen\PolandWP_pl.dat

The Polenfeldzug 1939 / Kampania Polska 1939 was made with English language setting, sorry forgot to mention that earlier.

You could try to change the line locale=pl to locale=us in the conf.ini file.

Best regards

vonOben

[Chess100]

I changed language to US. But the planes are now still falling down from the sky. Now matter what I do, BATDOC.DLL changing, turning of JSGME mods. Nothing.

Thank You for advice!

[vonOben]

Have you noticed this note above and in the Readme file:

NOTE: This version is NOT compatible with BAT WAW!

A BAT WAW version is being worked at and will be released as soon as it's ready!

If you are running some other mod please post your log file: log.lst.

[Chess100]

Yes, I noticed it after I posted a message...

Thank You for Your help!

[AlexGuy]

Where is the link for the missions themselves?

[vonOben]

There are no missions, since this is a DGenMod campaign!

DGenMod generates the missions in the same way as in ordinary DGen campaigns.

[vonOben]

Hi

Polenfeldzug 1939 / Kampania Polska 1939 updated to v.2.

Changes in v.2:
Updated for Poland 1939 Map update v.5.
Corrected skin for static He45.
