I didn't look at it too much, but "41Sqn_Banks" tool seems like a better fit for that.

It does not work online yet as far as I know.

Ideally I wish all offline campaigns are developed with online use in mind. The game engine took away differences between coop and dogfight and can do the same with off- and online differences.

If it is too much work for offline campaign creators maybe someone would write a script or addon for servers to allow them running offline campaigns as online ones in MP. Creation of spawnpoints can be scripted. The only thing that would require human input is writing briefings for the opposing side as they are not written for offline mode. However creation of a simple briefing can be scripted too.

If this toolbox is available a convention among campaign makers can be created to follow some technical standards to make all campaigns compatible with this server side addon.

Just imagine that you can fly all available offline campaigns together with your friends as a "coop" and against real opponents. This is where real power of the CloD engine would itself.

@ moderators

Is it possible to create an Offline/singleplayer subforum to collect all threads with campaigns and single-player missions. It is very difficult for most of casual users to find them as they never visit the FMB subforum where these threads are lost among technical discussions anyway. E.g. of such subforum at sukhoi.ru http://translate.google.com/translat....php%3Ff%3D226

Many users still complain that there is no playable offline contents available because they are just not informed.

An alternative is to make this thread a sticky if feasible http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=23652

This sounds really good. Thank you very much. (I just need to finish something else first before diving back into Clod.)

Ataros' idea would make things much easier for players looking for more content.

Thumbs up

I tried the two first RAF missions still some strange things possible like beginning the campaign the 1 September 1939 with the Germans in France. But otherwise great fun very realistic.
Thanks a lot to the creator’s great job.
I have a nice pc thus I did use the high/west campaign.
I hope to post some constructive critics in the future.
Have a nice and fun game...
Score; missions 2 Victories 0.

RAF campaign;
First mission Six pm. I miss my take off. I get a stern reminder of flight procedures, plane and I are ok, my self-confidence not! End of mission.
Second mission 4 am. Perfect take off. Nearly one hour patrolling along the coast from East Bourne to Bournemouth and Back. Controller signal Germans in our sector but they remain out of sight. Landing ok! Weather ok with fragmented clouds.
Third mission 9 am. same day. Mission intercept German bomber over Bournemouth at 12000 ft. Take off and the climb is all ok, I did encounter a pair of 109’s but they did not engage me and I could not engage the109 because the altitude advantage the 109 had. Found 18 110 above the Isle of Wight at 15000 ft. Tried to jump them but they spotted me and in the following short dogfight in downed one and had to bailout due to battle damage. Landed safely on the ground and got back to base by train. First victory confirmation by some naval observer was waiting for me at the home base. Flight time recorded 45 min. Squadron losses two aircrafts, one pilot. Squadron victories 3 110 destroyed, 3 110 probable, and 2 110 damaged.

I hope you like this!
