Can I fly...?

Post by Bloke »

Hi there..nice theater and Im having lots of fun with it..one question though: can you fly the Tornado in campaign?
Ive looked at the available sqn lists and cant see any listed, nor can i see it listed in TE when you create one.

Regards

Yes if you edit the campaign\desstorm\validac.act (or something like that). If the first line reads 8888 then all aircrafts are available, even helicopters which immediately crash the campaign if you select one.

Regards helos. At KKMC it shows 4 Apache sqns but they are actually Mi24's. I got the shock of my life as I'm waiting for takeoff and I see 4 Hinds fly by! I launch immediatley and shoot one down. When I order the flight to engage, I kept getting the "Negative". Hmmm...., something's fishy here, so I call up Sentry and he gives me the "Picture Clear". Strange. After the mission I got the court martial, etc.

Many thanks guys..seems to work in campaign mode fine, but as the previous poster says its not in the mission builder.
Not a great prob as it was the campaign flying i was interested in.
I suggest you get the korea 2005 theatre to practice with the tornado in TE mode, then go fly in desert storm....just a thought.
