Developing Europe Theater v0.6 is underway, actually this Release Candidate 1 is couple of day old but I'm been pretty busy in real life (christmas rush you know) and wanted to add couple more things, however the days roll by in mad pace so I have to put it out like this. What it means is that installer should be with the latest files but I cant guarantee it.

Changelog:

Code: Select all

--- bugs
- OF camp sqd sel/news blip maps has color palette error. ???
- Kavelstorf Highway Strip not leveled.
- on OF 4.5 TE, it freezes when we click on the back button.
- Zuibrucken airbase not leveled.
- is it possible to make only 1 training mission to the Europe theatre,
with start on Kjevik/Kristiansand Airport in the very south of Norway?
- AF 3d flying gives buffer overrun error in after about 10-15min.
- emmen airbase is not leveled.
- twenthe has 2 parrallel runways, in real they have a 24-06 and a 11-29
- pak map image missing, but pak is configured properly.
- small islands should not have farmland tiles (no roads/population)?
- save1 (hardest, bottom) campaign is missing/empty, didn't get it to work in time.
- all campaigns crash on sim exit, does not effect normal gameplay.
- eastern edge, terrain features missing, russia or something else?
- payerne airbase is on top of a bridge, (yellow team).
- coastlines need terrainview + tacedit check and coordination.
- bergen is bit cutoff terrain/road wise.
- BA102 DIJON LONGVIC airbase on top of a bridge.
- Drachten airfield is too short
- AB unleveled at x=198.26, y=1111.29, z=-930.83.
- Hungary there is the Balaton, a big lake without water.
- SE from Aviano AB. Sea is growing up, coast directly before Rijeka AB.
- fix the terrain in alps?
- RedViper B52's cannot takeoff from Wonsan type airbase in Europe campaign(s).
- Fairford ab in the UK is unleveled
- Spangdahlem ab in germany is off the spot

Eelde in the netherlands was never a militairy field

Schiphol in the netherlands was never a militairy field

Maastricht-Geilenkirchen is not a field, maastricht in the netherlands is a civil field 
and geilenkirchen in germany is the awacs airbase of europe, it's approx. 35 miles north 
east of maastricht !

here some fields that are important but dont exist in europe v0.5
* Ahlhorn in Germany
* Gutersloh in germany
* Wildenrath in germany

Futhermore, in germany there is a nuclear plant near the city of Lingen, it's not in 
europe v0.5

--- fixes v0.6
- AV campaign squadron selection/news blip map small palette transparency, fixed.
- AF missing campaign strings, fixed.
- AF missing theater strings, fixed.
- OF missing campaign strings, fixed.
- RV missing campaign strings, fixed.
- OF missing theater strings, fixed.
- RV missing theater strings, fixed.
- RV campaign squadron selection/news blip map small palette transparency, fixed.
- installer fails on AF only systems, fixed.
So again all testing of the installer and theater itself is very much appreciated and essential to get nice and working final v0.6 release.

This is the release candidate 1, more to follow if/when "critical" bugs are detected.

RV install ok.

campaign present day and 1985 ok, fly few missions, no CTd.

exit the sim, got RV exe CTD.

Pak map, the background europe map is correct, the outline of PAK exceeds the map area.. only england and part of europe visible.
