Hey, seems like your briefing file doesn’t contain that section. Can you send me your briefing.txt please?

Seems to be a consistent thing with the Somalia campaign - may not be “your problem”, but thought you might to be aware.

While I’m on this thread, I have to say that EZBOARDS has made a huge difference to BMS for me, doing exactly what kneeboards are for! No more trying to remember the various steerpoints 'cos I can’t be bothered to write them down or print…

Indeed those briefing records do not contain a pilot roster section. That is something new for me that i didn’t expect possible and EZBoards is not prepared for at the moment - sorry.
I have to talk with the theater/campaign developers to see what’s going on.
Might need some time, so don’t hold your breath. -
ah yes,i see now, i compared 2 different briefs, the one that dont work says situation instead.
hope its an easy fix.
thanks -

Might need some time, so don’t hold your breath.No need to apologise! I only posted it here so you knew about it. I’ve also got issues with non-English character sets (the Kuwait campaign seems to generate some garbage in the briefing header every time for me), but I’ve not investigated it properly yet.

Hello,
i got this info from smartaxe who develops the Somalia theater:Somalia campaign folder is missing a file called “divert.b”.
If copied from kto, to Somalia campaign folder , pilot roster shows in briefing screen.This might fix the issue. For those running Somalia, please try.
The Somalia guys will include it in their next update. -

The Somalia guys will include it in their next update.You need to do that with all my 3rd party theatres: Kuriles, Somalia, and Panama. In the future, as time permits, all of them will be updated with divert.b file.

Update V6 released!
- Now automagically works with most add-on theaters out of the box without the need to change target path.
- Now includes EZSERVE, a means to view the generated briefings on other devices using a minimal http server.
Top post updated.

Tried this last night, with EZWATCH (for the first time). I tried several theatres, including Kuwait, Israel, Somalia and Balkans, and it just worked perfectly. Great job and a great tool. Personally, I’d vote for this functionality to be on the roadmap for the core sim at some point.

Quick update - I have found it doesn’t like briefings from Lorik’s Mike and Papa Balkans campaigns. I suspect it’s a character issue; I’ll see if I can debug it today.

Guys, whenever you have issues, send me the briefing.txt files (email address in first post) and I’ll have a look.

Hello, dear Logic.
Just a (not silly, I hope) doubt: could I keep the “debriefing output to file” option selected in F4Patch, or may this create a conflict with the proper program’s running?
With best regards.
