[This is the duplicate of a thread I posted in the Winter Boardroom 43 ; at 4Shades request I have also posted it here] This is pursuant to a conversation with 4Shades and JG26 Badger the other night. In dealing with the combined campaign concept with both IL2 and Arma scenario resolution activated ...

I have an add-on concept suggestion. Rather than having 3 different observation balloon objects , what about if the Mission Planner had but one Observation Balloon Object ( should work also for Barrage Balloons ) . When the commander selected the Balloon Object in the MP he could have a tooltip that...

This the next developmental campaign I have decided to build. It is based on the Japanese advance from Moulmein to Rangoon in February 1942. I think I will start with the engagements around Bilin (Feb 18-19 1942) , and allow the Japanese side to develop its' own concept of operational strategy. Hist...

Operation Toenails is still alive and gestating. I was dissatisfied from the start by the fact that the Solomons July 43 Map was too historically advanced for Toenails (more to the end of July than the beginning which was when Toenails began) , and I had always intended to learn to modify maps so th...

Yes JP , You nailed the (only one that I can see) setback. We need to find someone who can animate them , so that we have : Command Personnel Static Command Personnel Chief Animated and Moving/Walking (and ideally raising and lowering binoculars(or Sword for IJA) , and/or pointing periodically) Comm...

Greetings All, One of the items I feel has been missing from SEOW/HSFX is the figure object of officers/commanders. Why is this important ? Currently , in order to represent objects with CC capabilities , it is necessary to apply this characteristic to objects potentially with other divergent functi...

This is just an update. I have been planning and formatting Parkers Crossroads as a campaign for quite some time and have experienced a lot of bumps along the road. As I was warned against (more than once) , my design suffered from tragic OOB creep , which soon blossomed ( some would say swelled) to...

I am retiring from life and moving to the Caribbean.
Immediately.
Which Island did you say , JP ?

Yes this is a strange issue indeed.
I can't remember if we had anything like this happen in TF8 , but I don't think so.

Hey Guys , I was doing a few tests re : Parkers Crossroads , and I discovered that my HSFX 7.03 install did not have a cockpit for the He177. Am I correct , or do I have an installation problem? Any info helpful. I know a cockpit is available at SAS , here : http://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/top...

Nice Work , Count.

I am looking forward to flying on this one soon.

There are some outstanding concepts involved in this that are very very interesting to me. I really hope to see this campaign evolve.

As I briefly discussed with 4Shades, I had a thought last night after reading a good book about the Battles for Guadalcanal , and it occurred to me that it might not take a great deal of adjustment (especially for me!) to the existing system to have Ships radar showing other ships as well as aircraf...

Toenails is still actively under development , but my learning curve requires some excercise at a simpler level for a bit.

Anyone with input re : Toenails please chime in .
Suggestions are appreciated.

Hey Dore , I love the image. Could you try making the orange of the flame a dirty black ( or dark grey) cloud and the white of the flame the same orange in the SEOW banner?

Looks good.
