Hubba hubba! Thanks a million! :grin:

Message File // Comment
 

Wonderful work so far on the DGen_MOD project. Many thanks.

Here is a possible minor bug report...
...message files contain // comments which are showing on the roster>pilot profile>detail screen.

System: DBW1.7, DGen_Mod 1.0.1.0, EnjoyR files for BoE
Campaign test: Disaster on the Frontiers, Jabo (campaignsDe6.dat)

Example:

\DGen\MOD\Message\MessageRu.dat
...
<logScramble> <Scramble>
<logBailed> <Bailed %s> // W of Smolensk
<logKill> <Shot down %s %s> // Me-262 over Berlin
<logCrashed> <Crashed %s> // SW of Kursk
<logLandedAF> <Landed at %s airfield> // Pitomnik
<logLanded> <Landed in the field>
...

Logbook.dat
DATE: 22 June 1941
PLANE: Bf 109E-4B
MISSION: Attack of ground targets near Novyi Kropivnik
EVENT: 10:56 Attacked enemy troops S of í.ï.Novyi Kropivnik
EVENT: 11:18 Landed at Holmets airfield // Pitomnik
FLIGHT TIME: 0:48
DATE: 23 June 1941
PLANE: Bf 109E-4B
MISSION: Attack of ground targets near Dublyani
EVENT: 17:34 Landed at Holmets airfield // Pitomnik
FLIGHT TIME: 0:49
DATE: 24 June 1941
PLANE: Bf 109E-4B
MISSION: Attack of ground targets near Oryava

I hope this is of interest and is presumably easily fixed by removing the // text?

Thanks for information, in the following version I will correct.

Some more corrections for the Message files if you're interested.

Each file has multiple spelling mistakes (in the English localisation files) which have been present since the original IL-2 release. Now might be a good time to correct them?

I'd be more than happy to email the full corrected files, but suspect you'd like to make the changes yourself.

Here is an example from the \DGen\MOD\Message\US_MessageEn.dat file - I have tried not to include any differences between English (UK) and English (US), otherwise I would be suggesting things like "armour", not "armor" and that would make my friends across the pond very upset. ;)

rumania Romania (with an 'o' is more common than a 'u'?)

Also, search and replace two SPACES with one SPACE.

If this is useful and you'd like further Message files corrected I'm happy to list out the changes and post here?

PS Apologies in advance to those that don't care about spellings and think this a waste of time - put it down to my advanced age. :)

After works on association of branches, I wanted to process also system of messages in the generator. It is correct to make it on the basis of Pacific branch when in one file messages of all nations are collected and it is possible to make separate messages for Italy, Finland, Romania etc. When I will make it, then it will be necessary to correct the file in English, and in other languages too. I will lay out these files for adjustment and the correct files will get to the new version. Thanks for the offered help! I will surely address. ;)

Asura,

I've been dreaming of this being possible since I first bought Forgotten Battles umpteen years ago and today I installed your mod.

It's awesome, with 4.11.1 and HSFX 6.0 I'm in Hog Heaven as they say.

I'm hoping to add some planes and maps from HSFX 6.0 with it, looks complicated but I should be able to fudge my way through it, hopefully.

:)

Download links for DGen do not work :( .

Can someone please upload 'em again somewhere?

I.e. can I just clean install DGen 1.0.1.0 without any prior DGen installations (1.0.0.7 or 1.0.0.8)?

And will it work on vanilla (unmodded) game?


Thanks!

The link working also doesn't change.

The generator works with any version of game. Version 1.0.1.0 completely replaces the previous. It is possible to delete them.
