Thanks Max. I believe the setting can be found in the game itself, while setting the flight difficulty parameters.

hay mate when youre doing  ya  next patch could ya add the rest of the fw190s 

[vpmedia]

I had the Fw-190 pack in but it produced somekind of a java error which I was unable to fix, hence i had to remove it.

Like said previously, do you ever sleep?
The screenshots you regularly post are absolutely fantastic!

This has nothing to do with VP Pack (sorry Istvan...) but would you guys know if somebody attempted to have longer mobile train compositions?
Standard pre-WWII soviet number of car is for example 32 with often much bigger ones (up to more than 90 cars).
The animated ones we have in the game look very small.

Agreed vonOben, increasing the space between wagons is not an option !

[vpmedia]

It looks like lot of work, but in reality it isnt a hard job. The textures are mostly coming from other maps, linking them into the maps load.ini takes ten minutes. For repopulating the maps with new building theres an automated tool, you can replace or randomize any building with one click. I can rebuild 2-3 maps in a few hours. Same goes for the skins, if I got a good template it takes me 15-20 minutes to make an test aircraft paintscheme.

Has the distances between the train wagons also been increased?
If that's the case what is the reason?
It looks a bit unrealistic IMHO...

I doubt that your screen is "during the game!"
You must be in the FMB.
If you have the Leopold convoy, spaces are even more bizarre. But during the game everything returns to normal.

In the chief.ini file you'll find two sections - the top section is for the name of the train and the bottom section is the makeup of said train. Here's an example:

Top portion:

Code: [Select]

Germany_CargoTrainMixed             objects.trains.Train 2 icons/train.mat
Bottom portion:

Code: [Select]

[Trains.Germany_CargoTrainMixed]

Using the proper syntax that you get from the examples you can make trains as long as you wish. In one of my versions (that I've misplaced or lost altogether) I made an eighty-car train using three locomotives - one in the lead, one in the middle and one in the rear. This was used on the War Over Italy map in the mountains.

Hope this helps.

cool mate

[Zoran395]

Bob, thank you so much!

I think I am spending too much time in static.ini and not enough in chiefs.ini !

[Hot_Space]

I still think that this is "the" best Mod Packs out there. Quick to load, great FPS, great looking maps etc... 

Is 1956 Jet Era going be in a future patch or is that a no go?

[vpmedia]

The idea behind the patches is to improve the mods which are already included in the package. I do not plan to add more mods which would require changes in the air/stationary/chiefs/technics.ini files, in order to not cause problems for those people who already added a bunch of extra mods on top of the base pack.
For jets the quickest way to go is CUP : JTW. If you add jets to this pack remove the effects mod, its incompatible with the SAS Engine mod.

[Hot_Space]

Understandable of course. I'm more a prop guy anyway mate :-)

Thank you for the feed back VP
