Although some people here do not like the way I try to help
(and yes, I tell a lot of nonsense sometimes ) I couldn't resist. 

Don't you stop my friend!  We are a team, I wish more people could get that...

Kirby,

Thanks for the help on this problem. I remember there was a similar typo problem with the original Algeria_Tunisia_Sicily map (https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php?topic=34475.0). Anyhow, I will download the two new map packs and see how I go - thanks for compiling them Simon.

The most common issues with new modmaps, especially going from 410 to 412 conversions, are missing objects and textures.  Some of these are difficult to find in 2014 as the original links are often missing and some maps are dependant on objects or textures from other sets.

By TFM-412 Map Pack 4 all issues are solved.  All of the included maps load and mission save properly and well over 100 have been added to the Stock 412 by then.

Hi Simon

From the initial instructions with the addition of the SAS modAct A1 flyables pack which I did last.

Just presuming from the additional JSGME SAS add on mods ( including Car masters HD mod)

Would installing these additional add ons be ok after completing the recent new map packs?

i think some of Agraciers recent island maps are in HD and I think Rabaul was in HD initially.

Cheers

Hey Kirby

Yep, that's fine, because those addons don't alter the all.ini, just the MAPs texture content.  Anything in JSGME (or similar) - plug IN/OUT format is safe to try anyway.  This is the most important principle - Nothing irreversible goes in there!  We can roll it back to any previous stage anytime.

Just a quick word to say thanks for your patience, Monty. All 18 packs installed and working, plus I have PAL's visual Mod8 up and running too.

Bergkamp

YES! Great stuff mate, that's the whole point! - Check out the two new map-packs and Marauder Upgrade since then and you are Fully Montied!

Simon:

Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear enough. I also have a modded up version of SAS-MA5.30.

In my regular SAS-MA5.30 do I Rem out the files DA920CD60E028A40   EEBBE344D2C2A05A   106BE08E745DD716 in !SAS_Engine_Mod as well?

It keeps being repeated but, I don't think we all can say "Thanks" enough considering the amount of time you're putting in for everyone's enjoyment.

Thanks and keep up all the great work.

Bob

In that case Bob, yes I recommend you REM (-) those classfiles, on the evidence we have so far, whatever install they are in.  No need to thank me for a little tweaking when we all get to enjoy the wonderful ships you make.  Adding ships can be a bit fiddly too; which makes this modular method very suitable for complex addons.  At this stage I'm working on some missions and also looking forward to further extending the TFM-412 Fleet.

For Simon,

A massively huge congratulations to you for developing this incredibly
super 4.12.2 Mods Pack. 

You have included a number of aircraft that I really never took the time to download as there were just too many additional mods to get for the aircraft. 

The latest map packs are a huge compliment for The Next Level and I am sure a very long and intense undertaking collecting, testing and retesting.

For you Simon a huge mega thank you and to any others who have worked on this very cool 4.12.2 mod pack. 

I am now a 4.12.2'er, I have taken out all 4.10 versions of the sim on my computers. 

A fully converted 4.12.2' er 

Cheers

Kirby

Barring a few (still single figures) very minor hitches, mostly to do with uploading all this stuff and 410/412 issues we didn't even know about, it is a very nice set to play and does the job.

My thanks to the posters on this thread, all dedicated tyre kickers, who have really helped to highlight any gremlins and hunt them down. - don't stop.

The next pack will be a US Navy upgrade: Looking at the Grumman Duck, Midway, the Korean era and ships...

The new campaigns and campaign conversions are also being finished off, and we need more QMBs.  I love Sundays off! 

[Griffon_301]

Thanks a lot Simon for the new packs!
concerning the 190s, of course the problem has nothing to do with TFM 4.12; as in 90% of all troubles with an install, its the guy in front of the monitor who made the mistake here
190s now checked and all are working as they should

btw, the PE-8 and the TB-7 do look right on my install without disabling the corresponding folders in the cowlings mod...

Hello Monty,
when will be there in TFM rest of Polish planes, please ;-))))
(PZL-37, PZL-23, RWD-8).

Thank You again for your work....

P.S. If I have understood correctly, all previous problems with stability and CTDs were a result of incompatibility of TIGER33's Sounds to 4.12 version, is it right?

Evening Monty,

Having probs with downloading from Mediafire at the moment. Reporting 5 hours to d/l pack #20 and I have fibre broadband!

Anyway, in the meantime, cleaning up the fixes. I have rem'd out the Ta's from Jeros cowlings (see JotaC's post 199 on page17). Can you confirm this is another mesh problem with Jero's cowlings and not an install error?

Thanks, Bergkamp
