Very nice, thanks to all involved with the effort

Thanks Indy 13,
This information on the 'Slovak National uprising' is just what I have been looking for. I am puting the 'finishing-touches' to my campaign 'Long nose Focke-Wulf Eastern Front' which should post on Mission 4 Today at the end of this month. The request for this campaign came from a very dedicated Czech IL2 fan and it has certainly given me a whole new perspective on WWII aerial history in this region.

My campaign uses the Rumanian, Lvov, Hungarian, Berlin and the 'fantastic Slovakian' maps.
Since working on the the Slovakian map I have come to really appreciate what this team managed to do - it has opened up a whole 'new-world' for the game and I am sure Oleg has benefited from the 'graphic advances' it has produced for his BOB Storm of War Simulation. (some of screen shots I have captured in Slovakia, while building the campaign, are absolutely fantastic)

I have also managed to 'get over' some of the map limitations you mention at the end of your information after much 'trial and error', including building a 'test airstrip' - that works, in a secret location on the map.

I have seen a Bessarabia readme too, but nothing new about the med. Is the meditteranean map still a go for 4.09 as well?

This sounds an exciting campaign, but the title is a bit of a mouthfull. Why not just call it "Dora: Eastern Front", or "Dora Pilot: Eastern Front" ? That would sound a lot more memorable and economical to me.

Just my 2 cents.....

Jurinko - I think the airbase at Zlin might benefit from being moved slightly to the East. I haven't been able to get any AI to take off from the south end without hitting that small hill.....

Hi GP, this has been corrected in the final version - planes can take-off to the south only (as the landing T hints) and the hill is flattened.

Nice one Jurinko!

Some text corrections done and added screenshots of airfields with respawn and taxiing points.

We also prepared two bonus PDF files: Industry and Sightseeing Guides. Hope this will help you to know country´s orientation and navigation points you are flying above and easier industry target selection for mission builders.
Note: Some few objects listed in Guides you will NOT find in current 4.09 beta version, as these were added during the last corrections and will be in final 4.09 release.

Files could be opened directly as PDF, but due to file size we recommend to use mouse right click and Save as ...
