Adding Aircraft to DGC Folder / Campaigns

[Dataman]

Thank you Treetop!

I may try Lowengrin's DCG but will wait for a new computer as my current laptop is rather old and really does not handle IL-2 1946 as nicely as I would like.

I do want to ask, and pardon my persistence, but do you believe there is a way then that I can manually adjust the DCG Campaign executable to mimic what I place in the planesxxx.dat file?

For the GB campaign, I was able to add a field modified Hurricane and it took, but similarly to adding a Tempest, I tried adding a couple of different Spitfires but to no avail.

If adding ANY plane would not take, I would of course give up and try Lowengrin's DCG for sure, but as some planes take and some do not, I am hopeful for a potential fix for the current situation before abandoning all hope.

Thank you once again for your advice.

I agree with what Treetop64 said above, but to answer your question....

is a way then that I can manually adjust the DCG Campaign executable to mimic what I place in the planesxxx.dat file?

Theres no need too as DCG already does it by its own files!
A DCG campaign will still need some .txt editing but its easier than DGen_mod and less buggy.

BTW Your il2 4.09 is way too old, I suggest you get DCG and the il2 update it needs.

Personally I still use DGen.exe version 4.0.8.6 alot,This was the last "official" DGen and lets some of the newer planes work. DGen lets you define frontline movements by date which I like for some of my campaign designs.
