CFS3 Terpitz mission ? (Read 1584 times)

Feb 1^st, 2006 at 9:09pm

Bullocks Ex Member

Well I know I had it ... once...

then in one of my fits of rage, tying to get the new OFF installed ( uncorrutped , that is )
I ended up deleting the old CFS3 I had , and wish now I would have saved the missions folder.

anyone ever fly the Terpitz mission , or possibly know where I could find it ?
I loved it , the B25H , booming in with the torpedo slung under it....
190's , 109's and some 262's circling in like vultures , made it a brutal yet satisfying one to fly.

I f you have it ... please send it to me ?
or a link ?

Sim-outhouse would be the best place to look and ask.

Well, good luck in looking there now. I've just tried and they appear to be down at the moment. Tongue

Try looking though the missions at Simviation. I would suggest the avhistory and groundcrew websites but they're all hell bent on historical accuracy and attacking the Tirpitz with a B25 with torpedos doesn't really fall into that catagory. Wink

HEHEHAHAHA,

I actually believe it was a 46th mission... but cant be certain...

also , I am in the process of editing up some of the Mossie mIssions, I like them , as well as those Corsican , but seems as soon as online in multiplayer , that most see a flight that will take them 30+ minutes to arrive at the action, they drop out... and that takes away that slot in the potential , for those who hang in, respawn slot.
Guess I may try to submit them here , as "edited Short Attention Span Missions"
But will ask the 46th and GC if thats ok , before I try.
I also found the aggravation of choosing one or another of them, after getting the first one finished, in game ... that there were no notices of - non stock a/c req'd , so in my editing , I altered those to use STOCK only.
I find it funny , I hardly ever use the MS Front Page , with the exceptions of this sort of thing.
I have every download available for this game, but not installed . Wish the new MAW was freeware....
it looked from the screenshots like something interesting to try.
But that goes hand in hand , with those BETA carriers.... wish someone would correct them for this , so I could dump that IL2/PF , for the CFS3 Pacific addon that would make up.
I may consider trying to add to Korea add-on the beta carriers, so I could fly the 'sair's n Cat's. but my first attempt at that failed miserably.

If you ask them nicely maybe they will release it as freeware.

Any news on the Lancasters for CFS3 Mathias?

You could do it with Fulmars, Skuas and Corsairs if you wanted to.

The Fleet Air Arm had a go in about 1942. Just before responsibility was handed over to the RAF.

Well ,
as to the original point of this thread....
in my digging thru my desk drawer of archives,
I discovered a dvd disc I had made ( thought I had at one point ) where I made copies of my CFS2 & CFS3 , installed game folders ..... low and behold.. dropped the disc into the drive....
WAHALLAH ! theres that missing Terpitz , ...and an edited one where I added some GC subs and ships !
PHEW , I did several searches....notta.. even emailed Mr. Law, in hopes of him knowing where or who did it.
So when I get permissions, I intend to upload them here, I found , after testing them , in multiplayer , they worked fine , the best part was only the Host has to have those installed add ons, for all to see them.

Infact , the way I intend to do the files, will be as a autoinstaller, for those "challenged" with that sort of add on.

This brings up, as I type this... the one complication of those added ships, that will have to be included in the installer.... but no problemo.
I have new methods to my madness , and it'll be fun to assemble this.

CHEERS !

Interesting, but being the pedantic type I am, it just would'nt be right without the Lancaster, not forgetting the Tromsø area scenery.

Having read "The Dambusters" - The story of RAF 617Sqdn, anything else in the mission just would'nt be right.

Good luck, I sincerely wish you well, but I don't recall any Lancasters for CFS 3 never mind Tallboy bombs. Sad

Sad

I'll watch this space with interest!

They bombed it with Birds your saying?

The Fleet Air Arm part was Operation Source I believe.

I think that a Freeware Lancaster might persuade me to reinstall CFS3. All we need to do is code an OBOE and H2S2 guage.

EDIT: And search lights and flares (The bright glowey things, not the trousers). Pathfinder missions would be fun, you could do them in in a Mossie, or trying to find a Dam whilst flying over the Ruhr Valley at 70 feet in a four engined heavy in the dark would be a challenge to say the least.

Who switched the lights off? I can't see a thing....... Hold on, my eyes were closed. Oops, my bad...............&&

Not a problem to 617 Sqdn It causes considerable grief whenever I try such antics in Just Flights Dambusters package, how those boys did it defeats me entirely.

Pity CFS3 seems so limited in choice of freeware addons, especially when compared to CFS 1 &2. Shame.

I think it's a graphics engine problem. Memoirs suggest that they could see quite well all things considered. Darkness in FS is always pitch black, I have managed to read a news paper by starlight on a good night. Moonlight is even brighter.

Search lights and flares are already avaliable and Groundcrew have been teasing us with a Lancaster for years.

You've really got to crank up the brightness/contrast on either your graphics card or monitor when flying at night. Accepted you can see quite well on a clear moon lit night but its still darn near impossible to spot a small fast moving aeroplane.

You get a Lancaster with the Firepower add on - it's on Amazon.co.uk for £4.99 - http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0000A12T1/qid=1140974744/sr=8-1/ref=pd...

You get 2 versions, one of them with the 12000lb Tallboy.

All we need is for someone to create the Norway Scenery....

There may be light at the end of the tunnel, I've passed on the source file to someone who has (hopefully) more time to complete it than me. Wink
