Hello and thank you for reading my post!

I have been playing around with SDOE for the past month or so and overall I think this is the best WWII flight sim available. I have a few questions to make my expierence even better:

1). Where can I get new terrain and how do I add the "Russian" option when choosing country?

2). Where is the P-47??? I see it in the skins area but it is not in PP5.3b and not in the new planes area of this website.

3). How do you get bombers to bomb an airfield in your own missions?? Even if one bomber drops his load, the rest in the flight don't! How do I get them all to drop on a target?

Those are all of the questions that I have for now....I'm sure I have more that I am forgeting at the moment. This is an excellent flight sim that is held back by some minor things that this great SDOE society has fixed...the plane selection is wonderful now and the downloadable missions are great. Now if only I get get more stuff and make it even better!

Thanks,

Adam

Spanky here..

1) you have to get nations. Not sure about the terrain. Nattions can be found at.

www.3dgw.com/simfiles

2) try www.fshangar.com

3) If the AI is driving the bombers the lead bomber is almost always the only one to drop bombs. Its a bug in the game it seems. I have seen 2 p38s take turns dropping till the target was destroyed. BUT only one time have i seen it. even if i run the same mission again the second p38 doesn't bomb.


To make a mission run better if hte AI is doing the bombing. Give the lead bomber enough bombs to do the whole job by himself. if he still doesn't have enough, lower the target percentage. The other bombers will take over if the lead is taken out by flak.

If you split the bombers into one squadron for each bomber I bet they'll all bomb.

I don't think I've seen this one myself, I've had them all bombe I think, or bomb until the target is done.. so maybe the rear bomber hasn't dropped.. but I can't say that I've noticed that problem

I have.. first one bombs then closes its doors then the others in the squad close their doors at the same time, before the bombs hit.

Thats a pretty good idea tail. Too bad its so much work.

adding all those extra waypoints and trying to keep them all together so they still look like a squad
