Norway Theater - Lets do it!
-
I just wanted to give everybody an update.
The Nordic Theatre presently is continuing in Multiplayer beta test. During this testing several issues of note were discovered by the pilots concerning radio frequencies and the lack of ILS at airports. Starrats has been kind enough to go through the theatre files and repair many of the unseen elements of the theatre. He was also able to add radio and ILS frequencies to all usable airports. The ILS frequencies were added to the edited knee map chart. Starrats also added selectable ub 8 rockets to mig29S. So now, Nordic Theatre’s Mig 29S are able to perform ro9cket attacks like the real world. With these changes along with others not mentioned, Starrats improved the theatre stability.

I thought this project had gone by the wayside so that’s fantastic news!

Test flight on Nordic Theater….

At what point does a theater get its own theater folder section? Be nice to have a complete work list and status of where this is going. I am currently assessing the current projects in BMS, trying to assess which ones might be a good fit for me.
Tom Catz: Maybe we could have an off-line dialogue of your plan and current detailed status.

Ranger, once the beta testing is all done, I am going to make a public release. Its is at that time, I will ask the BMS Theatre Mods to give the Nordic Theatre a dedicated subforum along with a sticky thread for download links. After my campaign work is complete, Tom Catz has agreed to return to the theatre and enhance the eye candy: 3D model, better tiles etc.
BTW Ranger, if you are looking for a theatre project that would be a good fit for you, I can help you out. Please pm me and we can talk further.

Hi,
yes. First I would like to have a look about the campaigns. I´m sure I used a small number of low res tiles and placeholders on the map. So I think I should start with airbase rebuilding and texturing the tiles. After that I would like to Import some new 3d objects while using the objects and names in order to save the campaign files.
But(!) I´m not pretty sure if I have enough time to do all of that. So I think it could be a nice move to make it open for the community so that artists can Play with the Theater. Renember: I just used Tonces developer copy. I think everywhere could be a crazy guy who can make some impressive thinks if he has the Chance for a start.
However: Great to hear that the work on Nordic is still going on.
Cheers

Campaign development is continuing even during beta testing. I did take a break from the trigger and cam files in order to do some artwork.
No more Korea campaign names and selection screens.

What database has this theater? For a better red OBB and capability here you can find a doc.

Really nice layout, but the Gripen isn’t present in this theater if I’m not mistaken?
-
Snail, at the moment the Gripen is not included. But, hopefully in the future, with additional DB work, I will be able to include it when I revisit the theatre.
BTW, at the moment, I am trying to finalize the cam file units and trigger files in order to make sure the campaign, within a reasonable amount of time, is winnable out of the box. Once that is done and it is verified the campaign is winnable in both single and multiplayer testing, I will issue the 1.0 Beta release. I have frozen the remainder of the DB/terrain work etc. for a later day. In this manner, I can give everybody a taste of Scandinavia and the great potential of an attrition type campaign can bring.
-
you can add Gripen instead Greek M2K, tweak ECM strength and few other values and link it to EF2K pit….u will get light, agile multirole fighter
-
Well, a Gripen DXM file is available, if someone can convert it to LOD format.
-
In FF we had a complete Gripen pack, nice pit, FM and 3D…I assume that is what you refer to, Frits? Would be cool to see such a feature, albeit I do not fly atm. But I’d love to see that.

I do have the DXM 3D model with the necessary permission for BMS. The cockpit is probably made by qawaa, I may get his permission too. I don’t know if the FM has an IP holder, it being a data file. Maybe made by Topolo? In that case I don’t see any problems.

Could you post airframe pict please? Is 3D pit in DXM format as well?
BTW There is Gripen LOD in ccc’s pack available… -

That map seems to be missing some important military airbases in Norway. Notably:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harstad/Narvik_Airport,_Evenes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andøya_Air_Station
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Station_Group_BanakI also I think it would have been more fun if more of the war had taken place in the fjords and mountains of Norway instead of the much more boring endless forests and bogs of northern Sweden and Finland. I want to sneak through to enemy lines through the fjords But maybe for another campaign

The starting minimap shows the airbases where are sq. So these airbases can exist they just do not have sqs.
-
There are more campaigns being made right now mine save1 is going to involve the area and airbases mentioned by arneh. I think it will be part of an update after chuckles releases the theater to public.
