funny thing was i was sitting here working on a map and out of the corner of my eye i saw a message pop up on the DOS window...i looked and it said "Goodbye!" and crashed..
I get an error window asking if i wish to report this (to MS) a reason and then a list of files it will copy to M$...ill see if i can find that report.

So far so Good , uninstalled the .NET 4.0 that the game installed and downloaded the client right from MS and the server has been running for 7+ hours perfectly ...but then again it could be just a fluke.

Good point ! I'm gonna test this as soon as my server crashes one more time. Do you get a Steam P2P error just before it does ?

OK thanks for everything. Mine is hosted on Server 2008 with latest updates. I may try installing XPsp3 if I can't solve it.

Could we play a mission where it is more likely to meet an opponent. At the moment, BLUE starts deep in France and it is damn hard to find each other.

By moving both sides airbases to the coast the distance is shorter and also people know where to find each other: straight at the coast. Guarding the bases with AAA might prevent people from picking up planes taking off.

Not been in the FMB, but been planning to tweak the current mission this weekend and play with some scripts.


The trouble with the airfields on France are that they ain't (bar one) dead on the coast-line. I'll have a look at the lie of the land, and I could actually create an airfield, but that's tricky with no bulldozer function. Will have to see.

I can re-implement the convoy's for the bombers.

Didn't really get the chance to see about this 'not seeing people' thing, with the current server instability. Something seems odd about it as noted in another thread.

I really dont think we need to create fictious airfields, specially on a full switch server, the axis fields are pretty close to the coast and you can see them from over the channel at any decent alt, just my 2 cents worth, am enjoying current misson immensely, great work.

Posting this here too, if people are interested.

128BoBv1_6

Ok. New version.

*GB bomb raid on German fighter airfield, starts 10mins into mission and repeated every hour.
*DE bomb raid on English fighter airfield, starts 40mins into mission and repeated every hour.
*Message across screen to all player's of event's.
*AI planes removed when player leaves/disconnects.

NB: It works fine, I tested the 10min start, but can't confirm (it should be fine) that the DE bomb event starts 30mins later.

You may need to edit 128Bobv1_6.cs and ensure the location of the two sub missions is correct for where you store them.

Thanks has to go to Ataros too, for his great information sharing.
