IL-2 Dynamic Campaign Generator 3.47 Posted

Additions to Version 3.47

Added planes and armour for game version 4.11m. Raised cloud height to a maximum of 5000 meters. Added options for gusts and turbulence settings. Removed search routine if the time setting is normal or faster to allow carrier battles to occur if there's only one mission a day. Increased payload lengths to 40 characters. Fixed issue where the fuel time table setting for the player's squadron took priority over the player's custom mission selection. Added new Time Table command "SetEscort". Added static plane spawning options in the Dogfight Panel. Tweaked the last waypoint for flights with off-map airfields.

Note: After installing, remember to reset your basic options and, if using DGen or NGen Replacement modes, make sure these options are re-checked before running IL-2 Forgotten Battles, Pacific Fighters or 1946. Mods which have made changes to the event log may not work with IL2DCG.

IL-2 Dynamic Campaign Generator 3.46 Posted

The IL-2 Dynamic Campaign Generator has now been updated to work with many of the new features of IL-2 1946 Version 4.10.1 including MDS. There are still a few features of the new version that DCG does not address (airfield friction, for example), however, the core areas like moving columns and IA aircraft are now available in Dogfight mode. For a full list of additions and fixes, see below.

Additions to Version 3.46

Added code to create basic "Moving Dogfight Server" (MDS) missions. To activate, set the MDS dropdown box to "Yes" on the "Dogfight Server Settings" panel. Changed the "AI Only" box to a dropdown with new categories for MDS type missions. Fixed carrier planes availability in Dogfight Mode. Added basic tracking for AI plane losses in MDS missions. Tweaked CAP chances for AI squadrons located with player's squadron. Fixed settings for IL2SC. Fixed allegiance of default Polish squadron and new Italian squadrons. Fixed respawning ship bug. Fixed log path issue (when the eventlog parameter contained both a path and a file name). Fixed column path bug which made them not spawn when defending bridges. Increased aircraft id sizes to 30 and name sizes to 35 in the class.dcg, allpayloads.dcg and payloads.dcg files. Old files will automatically be modified to the new sizes when first used by DCG. Added new skill category "Default - No Aces". Added "PilotType" time table command to restrict squadrons to all human or all AI pilots for Coop and MDS missions. Fixed Italian squadrons being "British". Recognized "carrier" as the equivalent of "CV". Move start dates back to 1914. Added seasons and random wind conditions based on the current weather conditions. Fixed "born place" bug. Added drop down on the Dogfight Server panel so server operator may set whether or not to create a Russian language properties file in addition to one in another language; removed the automatic creation of the file as it was being loaded on some servers ignoring the other language chosen.

Note: After installing, remember to reset your basic options and, if using DGen or NGen Replacement modes, make sure these options are re-checked before running IL-2 Forgotten Battles, Pacific Fighters or 1946. Mods which have made changes to the event log may not work with IL2DCG.

Libya 1941

Cirenaica, Libya, April 1941.

The siege of Tobruk started on 10 April 1941, when Tobruk was attacked by an Italian-German force under Lieutenant General Erwin Rommel and it continued for 240 days, when Tobruk was finally relieved by the Eighth Army during Operation Crusader.

Important: This campaign requires IL2 modded with Ultrapack 2.01 and HSFX enabled.

Iasi 1944 Campaign Posted

In April 1944, the Russian push towards Germany stalls and the front stabilizes. Along the Dnestr to the East and the two relatively small rivers Bahlului (east of Iasi), and Reut (between Kornesti and the Dnestr) in the North, both sides dig in. On the Axis side, big defensive lines of up to 50 kilometres in depth are prepared, including the “Trajan Line”. Here some 60% of the armored ground forces available in the East are concentrated together with large parts of the Luftwaffe including the elite units Schlachtgeschwader 2 and Jagdgeschwader 52.

Meanwhile, the Red 2nd Tank Army is brought back to full strength and is ready to attack again by the end of the month. In early May, the battle of Targul-Frumos erupts and the battle for Iasi begins.

Created by "yogy". For more information about this campaign, see his website "yogysoft".

Additions to Version 3.45

Increased number of custom paint scheme types to match number of plane types (was causing an "access violation error" using certain mods). Fixed kill credits. Improved patrol box patrol path creation. Fixed some flights of fighters flying at extremely low altitudes.

Note: After installing, remember to reset your basic options and, if using DGen or NGen Replacement modes, make sure these options are re-checked before running IL-2 Forgotten Battles, Pacific Fighters or 1946. Mods which have made changes to the event log may not work with IL2DCG.

IL-2 Dynamic Campaign Generator 3.43 Posted

Additions to Version 3.43

Added new planes available in the game's 4.09 patch. Flights per squadron will now more accurately reflect the current number of aircraft a squadron has as compared to the number of planes per flight. For example, a squadron with four planes with two planes per flight will be able to fly two flights rather than one. Made crewseats.dcg campaign folder unique - DCG will use the one in the main data folder if none exist in the campaign folder. Fixed noseart to display on late-war US planes. Fixed "IAK" squadrons being treated as German. Added "Beachhead Reset" option to both the menu and the time table commands; this option allows the user (or campaign creator) to determine what units do when they advance onto a beachhead location - if this option is active, units will be removed, if unchecked, the units will not advance onto the beachead but remain at the location just before the beachhead and defend it. Improved display of newsbriefs. Tweaked replacement pilot skill levels to bring them more in line with the squadron skill level.

Note: This version of DCG should not be installed over versions older than 3.01. Please make a clean install. Campaigns started with versions of DCG numbered less than 3.01 will NOT work with this version. After installing, remember to reset your basic options and, if using DGen or NGen Replacement modes, make sure these options are re-checked before running FB/AEP/FP or FP.

IL-2 Dynamic Campaign Generator 3.42 Posted

Additions to Version 3.42

Added ferry spawning in Dogfight campaigns. Added a ground contact distance setting so that players move the spawning distance of tanks and trucks back from zero to five waypoints (on Ground War Editor Panel). Added command "ShipsRemainSunk On/Off" to Time Table. Fixed an endless loop in the campaign generation routine when a "Jv", "RAP" or "MTAP" squadron was being used. Ships that crash will now remain sunk. Added to code prohibit more than one instance of DCG to run at a time (but it will allow DCG to run as "Dgen.exe" or "NGen.exe" and as "DCG.exe" at the same time). Added "Random" time passage setting; on this setting, time will advance either one, two or three days between missions.

Note: This version of DCG should not be installed over versions older than 3.01. Please make a clean install. Campaigns started with versions of DCG numbered less than 3.01 will NOT work with this version. After installing, remember to reset your basic options and, if using DGen or NGen Replacement modes, make sure these options are re-checked before running FB/AEP/FP or FP.

Defense of Darwin (Version 1.1)

Along with the release of IL2DCG is an update of the 457th Squadron’s "Defence of Darwin 1942" campaign (Version 1.1).

Or, before you start the campaign, edit the Allcampaigns.dcg file, change line Date=10/06/1940 to Date=01/01/1941

Use the Ground War Editor Panel.

Question Update:
Is it possible to start a career midway into timeline?

not carrier

windweapon on 29 Apr 2013: 18:33

Question: Is it possible to start a carrier midway into timeline?

For example I have a Med campaign, but if player chooses to start a RAAF fighter campaign, I would like to start them midway into the timeline (19410101) rather than at the beginning of timeline (19400610).

Lowengrin on 23 Mar 2013: 18:46

A new beta is available. Visit the DCG 3.48 Open Beta thread on the forum.

Lowengrin on 27 Jan 2013: 13:05

Sorry, then I don't know where those ones came from.

idefix44 on 26 Jan 2013: 15:15

Really sorry Sir.
Not the good files.
Their destination is:
IL2DCG\Data\aces\
My request is for:
IL2 1946\PaintSchemes\Pilots\

idefix44 on 26 Jan 2013: 15:07

Thanks Sir.

Lowengrin on 26 Jan 2013: 14:14

Redwolf, the AI-only setting is in the class.dcg file. It can be set through the DCG interface on the "Aircraft Class Panel".

Lowengrin on 26 Jan 2013: 14:12

idefix44, they may be from JastaV's ace packs: -link-
