I was thinking more of the entire campaign folder via mediafire or similar, so I could test it, but ok!

_Bay is a defination for a Sea location, so delete all _Bay entries of your .rds locations, of course also in the allcampaigns.dcg!

Oops!  Sorry.  I'll delete all this stuff and send it zipped via PM if that's OK.

Excellent!  Thanks again.  This is really appreciated.  I'm understanding more about building a campaign (but obviously have a long way to go).
If you don't mind just a couple of format questions.
1.  Can I adjust the frontline by changing the numbers in the .srd file?
2.  The first mission states in the briefing that the target is Marck but the waypoint target on the briefing map is Venlo.  How do I ensure the briefing reflects the waypoints shown on the briefing map?

I think sorting these two things out will stop me from bugging you further.  Again, thanks a lot.

1.Yes, but only minimal! If you want to change the current position of the front line, you have to move it or create a new one!
2.This is due to the number of locations created on the German side! The more and accurate you create locations for the map, more precisely will be later the informations in the Briefings! Currently, you have only two locations defined for the german side, so DCG selects the location that is closest to the actual target!

Thanks yet again.
I'll work on the Frontline stuff.
So I put the locations in the "Locale=" line in the allcampaigns file?

Any location that belongs to the attacking side that isn't written already in XXHome or XXBase lines should be added to allcampaigns.dcg using Locale=MyLocation

All locations in the campaign are specified using the .rds/.srd/.rls files.

Sorry to keep bugging you guys.
I changed the German homebase from Marck_Airfield to St_Omer_Airfield(further inland) and the Homebase as Monchen_Gladbach.  When I start a new campaign it shows me the map but the briefing says that the "Japanese forces have reached their objective, the campaign is over".  The campaign is B17s attacking Europe with the Germans on the defensive.  Not sure where I went wrong.

Did you also change the entries in the endcampaigns.dcg?
You must also change the IDs in the maps.dcg to have the right nationality in the Briefings:

  In your campaign:

  AlliedID=0
  AxisID=8

  All IDs:

  Allied                  0
  Axis                    1
  American             2
  Australian            3
  British                 4
  Dutch                 5
  Finnish                6
  French                7
  German               8
  Hungarian            9
  Italian                10
  Japanese            11
  Polish                 12
  Romanian            13
  Soviet                14
  Slovakian            15
  New Zealander     16
