Hey good to see that someone is listening to my voice....

Needs ->

-- first --
Ok, I've a major problem with the night-fighter bf110 (shoved a pic on the
forum). It looks good but I need to adding the following things:
- There has to be three people in the cockpit (now there's just the pilot
and the 2nd pilot (a copy of the pilot)
- Adding the 'schräge-musik' (canons firing upwards)
- A better skin for this plane (mine is just crap)

-- second --
Generaly spoken, a lot of night missions involving the Lanc, Manc (latest version), bf110 (night-fighter), bf110 (normal one), bf109G, Ju88 (night-fighter), mosi and even the do17 (was also used as night fighter).
Well of course a lot of flak-guns everywhere (even ships)!
I've a lot of problems when using the night-ju88 and the lanc (the orginial one..pp6) in the same mission (ctd)...??? So for some missions I use the lanc (h2s) instead of the 'old' one. The mission are all based on the dovernight terrain.
The missions need all a clear brefing (a couple of them have historical informations), for the german as for the allied side. I'm using also australian squadrons (funy radiocalls). The german brefings are writen in english an german (more authentic..). But generaly the missions are not historical based. There will be 30 missions at the end.

-- third --
A lot of pictures showing bomber-command squadrons. Doesn't matter which one cause I gave up searching the right picture to the apropriate squadron.
Insignias are NOT the problem (I've ALL of them, even with information on every squadron)

-- finish --
The first and second points are longterm whishes. At the moment I'm working on the following things:
Building up the whole bomber-command (creating every single squadron). Created 23 squadrons so far (with pictures, bio, etc. etc.)
Worked on this dam (sorry) night fighter. It's realy alpha at the moment!
Created only six mission. But these missions work realy fine, that means good framerate, hard to acomplish when in bomber-command, detailed brefings with historical details, etc..
...of course I'm also dreaming of new planes (stirling, wellington, etc) to
release with this package.

Wanna join? So if you would like to help me .. GREAT, but be aware there's still a lot to do!

If you are skilled enough it would be nice to do an accurate cockpit for it. I can use many of the textures from the 109s, so it is not a massive job from the standpoint of painting.

I know sqns changed aircraft throughout the war, but I'm guessing that you have some idea of what planes you want "assigned" to what sqns. For sqn photos, I tend to favor ground shots (a very small tribute to the invaluable ground crews), I sepia tone them for that aged look, I place them in the photo-album "frame", and I try to use photos which do not show (or at least not clearly) the sqn codes since I too have found matching sqns to photos of the real sqns impossible (cropping is also very useful here). I have pretty good Lancaster, Stirling, and Mossie resources, and fair Manchester ones. I'm sure I can scare up at least some of the others as needed. If this is OK, let me know what you need (how many Lanc, how many Whitley, etc.) and I'll get started.

As schemes go, I have a question. I have not used Dover Night much but it is my impression that even though in real life, virtually white schemes (like the Bf110 scheme on RAF Harkness) were ultimately found to be the most effective at night, such schemes seem to "glow" in FS-SDOE at night. Let me know if this is true and I will knock up a dark Bf110 scheme. While we're on the subject, do you want Lancaster, Manchester, and Mossie schemes to go with each sqn? On the Lancs, I presume this would mean simple coding changes, on the Manchesters, I would expect one of the three main schemes (on my site) and coding changes, and for the Mossies I would expect them to be all night (?) and coding changes. Let me know on this score too and I'll get on it as well if you want them.

Be seeing you,

3dp:
Please send me as many squadron photos as you have!!! I've made a count and there are still 109 (hundred-nine) squadrons missing !!!! ...a LOT of work still to do

Yard:
Well I've re-done the skin for the BF110G4 and it looks ...well good now. So no need for skinners...BUT if you would jump on this one (still needs the 'schrage-musik'), I would be happy if you could give a try
Please let me know

...mhhm so many things, so little time
