@Atze-0 correct. That’s just how resource files like irc and rsc works, with the main difference that irc are basically textfiles human readable for some stuff like images there might be a third file “rsc” that hold the decoded images as binary data. In order to view those you need a resource file reader

@LorikEolmin hi Lorik.

I will check. Many thanks!

@CheckPoint checkpoint this thread is great!!!

Thanks!

@CheckPoint hi ckeck point, i saw your post and took note about it. In my experience i put some priority in the initial section of the .tri file considering pak id in Balkan theater. The problem is that once i start balkan campaign so modified on the start pak windows that appears before campaign starts i cannot see the change.

It seem HQ ignore the tri file.

Any suggestion? In your case it works?

Thanks for your help!

Hi Dear BMS Team,

I would like to define at the start of the Campaign a specific configuraton of PAK priorities writing this on the tri file.

I am working on Balkan Campaign on Save0.

The command is: #SET_PAK_PRIORITY [team#] [pakID#] [priority#]

I can read pakID from Mission Commander specific TAB view (POL/PAK).

I tried to set some PAK Priority but it doesn’t works. When i start the campaign i see that HQ leave to 0 a PAK priority that in the tri file i set to 100.

Where i am wrong?

Thanks for your help and direction,

Gundam

IIRC terrain types have impact on GU movement (at least in 2D), also slope angle has an impact on speed.
I mean city tiles are passable even withnout ground paths (its the only impact I am sure of…).
Lakes/seas (areas) have spatial purpose together with rivers (vectors).

But are terrain types processed in some other ways? Like boardgame…I mean infantry has bonus vs bomb or tank battalion while in forrest, mechanized battalion has handycap to move in rocks etc…I really doubt about it. Are terrain types just ayecandy?

Is it only the matter of appearance in all Falcons4…what a nice forrest, rock, makia, field… ?
Thanks in advance.

P.S
my guess is, using thr file, it has impact mainly in 2D - city, swamp, rocks, thin and thick forests are generated…so my guess is, when objectives links are calculated over terrain types, there are no more effects among swamp vs forrests vs fields vs rocks terrain types…?

@Tumbler31 Hi Tubler31!

Many Thanks, I didn’t know it!!

@CheckPoint hi. No. But i think it’s possible in the way described in previous post.

Hi. Thanks to all for answers. Ok so working on priorities i can pilot which kind of mission type the engine will frag.

I seen the video and it’s great stuff.

Many thanks,

Gundam

That’s not something you do with the falcon database editor but not MC…

Did someone already tried to decrease PAK priorities all other the map (ie only priorities below 2 for example) ?

@gundam Found.

AircraftTurnaroundMinutes = 60 (Falcon.cfg)

ciao Maxwaldorf!

Ok 🙂 i love the bms campaign engine anyway. 🙂

Good Day, All. I am seeking input about how to control AAR tankers. Is there a way for a player to control tanker fragging? Simply put, if you want to use a specific tanker at a specific place/time and not what BMS “wants to assign you”, what’s the best way to do it? Is there a way get a specific assignment and not have to take human control of the tanker squadrons? That would work, but I don’t think the average player will want to do it.
The only workaround I’ve found is to delete all the UI-fragged tanker flights. Basically, treat it like a TE and it works . Obviously, though, that’s not realistic in a campaign

@MaxWaldorf said in Lookiing for map of Europe for Campaign in Development:

Just to be clear…
There is a Central European Theater in preparation with the next terrain engine of BMS.
Starting now building one for 4.36 is pointless…
By the time you get something mature enough, it will be obsolete!

So… my dream (and others too) is not dead yet!😀

Maybe in 4.37! 😄

<p>Hi, Snake. While this doesn’t help Amr much, perhaps I can help with your Amphib landing. What I did , via Mission Commander, was to add the Wasp ARG (put an AV-8B squadron on it[In some Theaters like Korea 2012 you also have the F-35 option]),and Newport ARG off the coast. Then I put my ground forces at the shoreline, set their waypoints, and off they went. <br /> I put the Newport in as the Wasp doesn’t land large tank forces The Newport LST’s are designed for that. They can each carry 29 tanks or 30 AAV’s, and each Newport ARG spawns with 2 Newports.<br /> BTW, bridge status wasn’t an issue in my case, but you are absolutely right that it can be a big factor. <br /> Hope that helps</p>

Hello gents,

I started editing some campaigns with MC, using MaxWaldorf’s video tutorials as a guide and the results so far are pretty good. Nevertheless, I encountered some minor problems and I hope to find the right way to solve them with your help.
I’ve moved some squadrons to different air bases, but then I loose the name of the air base and it shows only the object ID number ingame:

So how can I revert back the name of the air base?

Cheers,

Airbuster

Through Mission Commander you have the campaign strings that are editable from there…
