Official SEOW

Hi Kopfdorfer, I just checked SEDB74_Reference and the Object_Specifications table contains an object called "SubTypeVIIC_SrfWithBeacon" which does not match the object you report. The "W" does not match "w". This may be a simple transcription error in SEDB74. Just exam...

Hi trumps, Good to hear from you! IV/JG7 isn't active any more and I haven't heard from Erax, Stix, Trav or the others in a long time. I spend most of my time at SEOW HQ Teamspeak where we pursue SEOW-related things, including IL2 (with the HSFX7.0.3 mod) and Iron Front (with the IFA2 mod). Anyone i...

New bug fix update for SEDCS: v7.3.7 As noted by Brandle, there was an intermittent bug in the Add Forces tool that caused the SEDCS to provide the user with a list of army unit names that were already commissioned in the order of battle. I have fixed this in SEDCS v7.3.7. The MP has also been revi...

With the recent changes at Sourceforge, the SEOW source code is now housed under an SVN repository at Sourceforge. This means that the methods we previously used to maintain updated copies of the Mission Planner are no longer valid. So let's see what we can do with the new SVN system. Inspect the so...

Due to applications decisions by Sourceforge, where the SEOW source code is stored, has meant that the CVS system is no longer supported. Hence Squog's excellent autoupdater for the Mission Planner is no longer valid for the latest version of the SEOW software. Sourceforge now only supports Git or S...

Interesting. But how do you anticipate the Churchill visits to be handled, and how can the Axis forces determine his movements? Maybe a Churchill visit is only valid if he stays for 1 or 2 hours at a Control Point. Maybe the Axis forces are informed somehow that Chruchill has visited a CP location, ...

A new feature for those difficult night compass marches!

A marvellous thread! Happy New Year!

Hi HG,
Good to hear from you, merry Christmas! I don't fly Cliffs, but some of the other guys do (Hawk_12, Badger, Ikey etc). Drop in at SEOW HQ TS and say hello.

New bug fix update for DCS: v7.3.6 Two new bugs have been reported by Thor and Scannon. 1. As noted by Thor, negative values of Fuel_Freight have cropped up recently in the DB. This report led to some code updates in the MP and I have enforced non-negative Fuel and Fuel_Freight values in the DCS vi...

You can also define new "temporary" runways simply by putting their coordinates in the Airbases table, and setting Airbase_Type to a "temporary airbase" number as defined in the Airbase_Layouts table.

I was testing a new meta-map set at Klagenfurt Airfield today. I generated the neta-map from the IL2 Slovenia map and called it "Klagenfurt Airfield" (map verbose name) which led to the meta-SEOW map ID "KLAG_5km_104_215_s". All was built successfully and seemed ok in the IF Edit...
