New Mission: Hollandia 30Mar1944

Hellfire:


Thanks for your report. The briefing for the American side is quite complex, but the briefing for the Japanese has none of that. This makes me believe that some resource of your computer is getting overloaded by the complex briefing.

I have one idea: you might try deleting some of the large "WAV" sound files that are played during the mission briefing. The first one is named "AttentionMissionForTodayHolla ndiaAB.wav", and you'll find it (along with the others) in the "440430" folder somewhere beneath your AH2 "offmiss" folder. Try deleting that file so the briefing just skips that set of associated resources, and then let me know if it goes any farther before crashing. If so, you might also want to just delete "HollandiaIntroAA.wav" and "Hollandia440430Intro.wav". You'll miss out on the narrative portion of the briefing, but you can hear it anyway in the movie that you can download from the web site (Look for the image that says "Hollandia 30Mar1944 Full Mission Recording".

I hope this helps. I'll try to published the trimmed-down version sometime in the next couple of weeks.

I just updated the TechVideoReview.com/FlightSimMovies website with a trimmed-down version of Hollandia 30Mar1944. This version doesn't include any of the pre-recorded voice banter, and it has only about 60 aircraft. In my experience, it runs OK even on the older version 2.12.x of AH2 (which supports LAN play). It should be compatible with most folks that can't run the full version. You'll still need the nguinea6 terrain. You'll find everything you need at:

Follow the links thru "Aces High", -> "Offline Missions", -> "The 1944 Hollandia Campaign over New Guinea".

The trimmed-down mission version is described at the bottom of the page. You can download and watch a wmv movie recording of the full mission if you still want to approach the "full" experience.

Doubly grateful to u for  (1) the advice given me to delete the three (3) .wav files &
two (2) for the trimmed down version posted on this bbs.

I removed the three (3) files BUT from the .MIS program, & enjoyed the entire game
w/o interruption, congratulations on a job well done     Hope to see more of ur
missions in the near future. TY.

Bravo, Peabody, just flew the trimmed-down version, it's as much fun as the full version but the action takes place sooner and it's just as challenging!
