All I can say is WOW!…
Weapon Delivery Planner is not really representative of all this baby can do!
You should change the name to something like “Falcas’s Total Mission Planner” …Cheers!

Hi guys… I have a problem!
I’m using the WDP fine with TE’s, but when I use it for a Campaign mission it does not show the PPT’s in the HSD. Can someone talk me through the process? I’m sure I’ve missed something.Domestos

if you are, do not load any of the save#.cam files.
instead load autosave.cam or any other custom save file that you’ve made.
-
I’m doing that… loading a manual save… save-day 1 08 06 22.cam. I’ll try autosave .cam instead.
Thanks mate for the quick reply tho…

Check out wife2.0.rar
When I unpacked the wife2.0.rar file……it must have been bugged as it asked for a credit card??. Uninstalled it and it still haunts me
@ Falcas, you truly have given this community a beautiful product!! Thankyou!

I am having the same issue. I am planning with .cam files for both autosave and my D1 0525.cam saved file. The MFD, EWS and radio presets show up in the cockpit just fine, but no PPT or lines transfer to the HSD in either campaign mission. The callsign.ini saved message displays when saving the map data. PPT and lines show up fine in TE missions, however.

Ok here is the thing…
For campaign, the in memory PPTs and Lines are save to the callsign.ini when you go to the 3D world.
If you did not insert the PPTs and Line in the UI in BMS, there are none in the memory and thus no PPTs in the callsign.ini.So to overcome this there are 2 options.
1. Insert all the PPTs and Lines in the UI itself.2. In WDP open your saved campaign and get to the flight you want to fly.
Set everyting as you want, for the PPTs go to the map and use the auto PPT function to quickly add all the relevant PPTs.
Don’t close WDP.
Go back to BMS and hit the fly button if you are ready.
When you see the first loading screen, Alt+Tab to WDP and hit the “Save DTC” button and Alt+Tab back to BMS.
Now the callsign.ini is loaded with the relevant PPTs and you should see them when loading to the 3D world hase been completed.Note: When you Alt+Tab back to BMS you might only see a black screen. Don’t worry, just wait. The screen need to be painted again and this will be done with the next loading pie or when you enter the cockpit.

Thanks for all your assistance. Oddly the line STPTs and PPT locations do list in the callsign.ini; however they do not show up on the campaign map or cockpit HSD unless I place them manually just prior to takeoff. I will try your suggested work-around, but here is where the large windows text font issue will be a problem.
-
OK, tried your work-around leaving WDP open in windows and saving DTC. ALT-TAB back to campaign planning map, but still no go. Driving me crazy. One thing: in the WDC DTC/STPT page, the COPY DTC button appears to do nothing. When I save the DTC file, it does confirm the callsign.ini save and the PPT and Line steerpoint data are listed in the callsign.ini file - yet they do not load to the sim. I get the feeling this is something pretty basic that I am missing. I am running Win 7-64, 4 GB ram, with ATI 6870 vid card.

I have tried everything I can think of. Reinstalled WDP and BMS. Deleted pilot and created and new one. Some day this mystery will be solved, but right now I am out of ideas.

Hi Teeball,
Read the work around post again and pay close attention to the fact that you should save the DTC in WDP while you are going to the 3D world or if you are already in the 3D world.
Saving it and then going back to the campaign map in BMS doesn’t change anything!!!
So click the fly button in BMS and then start doing the work around with WDP.Reinstalling BMS or WDP has nothing to do with this and will not help you. Also making a new pilot file won’t help.

Ahhhh. Missed the part about the 3D world. Thanks much, will give that a try.

First! Thank you very much for this awesome software that adds realism to the game.
I got a strange problem. Im flying a campaign (sometimes on my dedicated server). I pick my flight and save the campaign. Then i load it up with WDP and enter my Package. I see my flight there. But after i click my flight and i go back to the Data sheet it shows me the wrong package… Why?
I had it working before. Ive tried a “repair”.
-
Really appreciate all your help, Falcas, however success has proven very elusive. I prepared WDP DTC file, left WDP open, started campaign mission, paused sim, ALT-TAB to windows and re-saved the DTC file, click on BMS to return to cockpit, but still no PPT or lines on HSD. Thanks for trying.

Hi,
If you are in the cockpit and then Alt+tab to WDP, save the DTC and move back to the cockpit, the DTC has the data needed.
But it is not loaded yet So load the DTC again and you should be fine.
To load the DTC, do the following.
Have a look at both MFD lower buttons and see if you find “DTE”. If not, click on one of the 3 center/lower MFD buttons until you see the MFD selections.
Select the “DTE”, it can be found on the right hand side of the selections.
If you have selected the “DTE” you will find the load button on the top of the MFD.Gr Falcas

Campaign files are complicated and sorting them out is a big job. One little mistake in the code can have hugh result.
So it might be that there is a little thing in the code.
Can you post the mission file you got the problem with and tell me the package number. Then I can have a look.Gr Falcas

Thank you very much for this great tool. This is a must have for efficient mission planning :bowd:
-
This tool is extremely powerful - with all the possibilities it offers, it is of inestimable value in the flight planning.
Thank Falgas - btw there is a possibility to see the the Programm on the whole screen? Running 1920 x 1200

Package 7082. Flight is Lobo.
EDIT: I think this is multiplayer related. When i connect to my server and load the campaign on my client computer i get this fault.
When i load the campaign not connected to my server WDP works properly.
