Winter Breakout Mission

[USRanger]

Well thank ya b.  I look forward to seeing it.

UPDATE!

mrmidi was kind enough to create a self installing executable file for the mission that will automatically place all files where they need to go.  I tested it and it works perfect!  Now no one will have to worry about which file goes where.

Thanks again midi, that's super cool of ya.  BIG

the mission was awesome. WTG Ranger!
I was wondering though, what is the German fight song? (Not the imperial march from star wars) I know its from a movie and Ive heard it before, but i cant remember which one. Not Braveheart is it?

Is this the new mission or winter breakout reposted?

[USRanger]

Same mission, just self-installs for those that were having trouble before.

[macleod01]

ahh rgr, thanks. Im waiting for your next mission update with your new map!

[Enker]

If i wanted to, would i be able to change the fight songs to different ones with say, The Killers?

[USRanger]

If you have the mission editor, sure.  Anything can be changed.

Ok, so is it an event or something, because either I can't find it or I am just a simple moron...which one would it be?

Prepare yourself for the fight of your virtual life as you are thrown into the fury of the battle between the Red Air Force and the Luftwaffe!  The Russians are determined the destroy the German radar complex.  The Luftwaffe must do anything it can to stop them!

Winter Breakout contains two missions:
Red Storm-Allies
Fire, Ice and the Iron Cross-Axis

List of Allied Aircraft:             List of Axis Aircraft:                 
40 IL-2s                                       16 190A-8s   
24 LA-5s                                      16 110G-2s
20 Yak9Us                                    24 109G-6s
                                                  24 109G-14s

164 aircraft in total

I spent over a month on this one, making sure the fight was equal(the player's actions will determine the victor) and to make sure the battle "flows" instead of just one big furball.  I'm very proud of this one and hope y'all enjoy it.  It's a toughy.  You better be on your toes and watching your back or death will come a'knockin'.

Recommended Settings:
x3 ammo count (you will need it)
F3 (outside)view enabled

Tips:
On runway, hit F3, then F8, then tap 8 on the num pad a few times to give you a nice high 6'oclock view of your plane.  The runway is crowded at first, so it helps to see where you are going.

Hit Alt-I once.  This will switch the icons from names(AI****) to plane types.  This helps you to stay with your flight and know what you are fighting.

Installation instructions are included in the mission .zip folder, but if you've downloaded my Raiders mission, it is the same.

Salute and Check 6

for some reason i cant do it

[USRanger]

Could you be more specific?  We can help if you say what's going on.

This is some great work mate. The only problem I'm having is that when I try to use any type of german plane I end up with a FW190. I had to edit the .mis file as I've it installed on a different partition to C - any ideas on that one?
