Ok, I just found a bug while campaign testing. It seems, if your campaign has locked up and nothing is happening, you have won the campaign. Since there is no movies, nor text displayed it won’t appear the campaign is completed. Also, since the conversion to 4.35, the logbook does not record your campaign win. I need to look into the base files and see what has changed/been altered from 4.34 to 4.35. For context, I human flew the Save0.cam file and was able to win the campaign by Day 1 2105. I did not adjust/change any of parameters from the HQ page, nor did manipulate the ground units. I left everything to the ATO/GTO.

Well that explains what happened last time.
Somewhat.This is actually the third time i started a campaign.
Never made it past day one ,it is different and seeing some crazy shit in game ( ai ) and debrief .
Well,see what happens this time .
Ha ha
Not critizing, just saying.
And i still say runway 05 is short :uham: -
So i started a night flight, im in a cold jet, firing up the engine and here comes a defense vehicle, the dumbass drives right into me,boom, wtf !!!
Bwa ha ha ha -
Still day one,flying the f16 out of the two different airports.
Its night missions now.
Anyhoo havent touched hq controlled and now getting almost all havcap missions.
So i will control the paks for a couple flights,see what happens.
Some crazy stuff happening around both airports.
I,ll try a couple more flights to see what happens.
Almost harder at the airports than the mission.
Ha ha ha -
ha, so i jump in for another try, this time mobile stairs ran into me as im starting the jet.
maybe just me but deleting out somalia for now, panama was nice too but cant finish that one either.
enjoyed both for what was done,thanks -
Just to let you folks know, Eddropper was kind enough to help me track down my problem. The lack of air-to-air kills posting has been fixed, the campaign freeze has been taken care of too. I am going to human fly the campaign and take care of a few more playability issues including aircraft types and such as well as bug test things. Once all of those issues are fixed, I will get Ed to build me a new installer for everybody to try out.
-
Fine to learn that, good job you two both.
Ah, and please count me in, dear Gavin, if I could help you in anything.
With best regards.

Update - Hotfix 2
I want to give Eddropper a big thanks for helping me track down the last few bugs in Somalia. Apply the following bug fix after Hotifx 1. This will fix Somalia cam file freezing, certain aircraft not tasking, overly full airport and a host of other bug fixes.

BTW, Hotfix 1 not required. Install Hotfix 2 over original 4.35 install.

Just one word before two other ones:
“Thanks!” and “Well done.”
With best regards.

hey chuckles, hate to ask but did u try human landing on runway 05, cant remember the airport but was the inland base.
that runway is the only one i have ever had trouble stopping in time.
the shorter of the 2 runways.
i can stop in time but only by hitting wheelsdown on the threshold and jamming on the brakes immediately.
i just want to know if its me or what, driving me nuts.
now im pretty good at landing all different ways but this one,damn. haha, no biggy if not though.
thanks again,i did download the base and update 2,couldnt find update 1 anymore but saw its not needed.
didnt install yet though. -

didnt install yet though.Yes, I know what runway you are talking about. it isn’t you, I think the runway is shorter than default BMS fields, plus I wonder if its higher altitude leads to thinner air and reduced aircraft performance. During beta testing of original Somalia, Ripper’s boys had issues taking off it with fully loaded F-15Es.

Possible to add cables maybe.
Trouble taking off from the longer strip ?
Wheww,was driving me nuts,got good at it but not correctly.
And yet the ai touchdown halfway down the strip and stop no problem.
Ha ha ha

ThanksThe think the longer strip works ok for takeoff and landing. Its just the shorter strip that is the issue for landing, mostly for the Viper. The CF-18 does have better landing performance over the stock Viper. I did notice that during my recent beta test campaign. Why AI works on the shorter strip, I am not sure. I don’t know the code well enough.
-
Ok, no problem .
In the campaign, landing is always the short one .
But yeah, no problem.
Thanks for the explanations. -

I want to give everybody a notice. With the release of the 4.36 version of this theatre, I will no longer be maintaining a download link in the coming month. My Mediafire Account is full at the moment and I need to prune the contents. If you are still flying 4.35 and want to keep using this theatre, you have permission from me to host it, share it, torrent it, do whatever you like as long as it remains freeware.
