+ | The SSW is available for Jasta 12. <br> | ||
+ | The Snipe is available for No 43 Squadron and No 4 Squadron AFC, very late in the war. <br><br> | ||
+ | 15.0.0 <br><br> | ||
+ | For all:<br> | ||
+ | - Missions generate about 10x faster<br> | ||
+ | - Added protection for instances of bad log data<br> | ||
+ | - Reduced infantry by quite a bit<br><br> | ||
+ | PWCG for FC 2<br> | ||
+ | - FC2 map<br> | ||
+ | - Fronts move in 1918<br> | ||
+ | - Squadrons redeploy based on historical events<br> | ||
+ | Squadron skins with tactical codes for all units.<br> | ||
+ | - Must download ALL FC skin packs.<br> | ||
+ | - Newer skin packs made by me are labeled "FC Squadron"<br> | ||
+ | - Existing skin packs are labeled "FC Skin"<br> | ||
+ | - Both sets contain squadron skins, so you need all of the packs.<br><br> | ||
+ | 14.1.4<br><br> | ||
+ | Another attempt at sweeping the runway clean.<br> | ||
+ | Improvements to campaign generation<br> | ||
+ | - Validate name to prevent downstream errors<br> | ||
+ | - Must now select a map. Ensures data integrity later in the process<br> | ||
+ | If parked is selected and the map ios Normandy and the campaign is not coop, no runway starts<br> | ||
+ | - Parked starts will not work in Normandy<br> | ||
+ | - I left the option available to coop as they might be able to pull it off with no AI in the flight.<br> | ||
+ | Cleaned up transfer screen. Transfers to transport now work.<br> | ||
+ | Fixed transport missions <br> | ||

+ | |||
+ | 14.1.0<br><br> | ||
+ | Completion of blank Squadron skins.<br> | ||
+ | Over 600 skins added<br> | ||
+ | What is a "squadron skin?". it is a skin configured in PWCG to be used as the generic squadron skin. So it is a blank with a unit marking on it. <br> | ||
+ | - All variations of an aircraft were done, so a P47D22 for a squadron will take up to 8 skins with green, silver, plain, and 3 variations of Normandy markings.<br> | ||
+ | - Russian aircraft might have multiple camo schemes over time and concurrently. German planes often had multiple concurrent camo schemes.<br> | ||
+ | - No British squadron skins as they did not have squadron markings other than the code. The existing blank skins are adequate.<br> | ||
+ | - The different paint schemes and markings will add some life and the use of codes will make every aircraft in the mission unique.<br> | ||
+ | Changed takeoff WP priority to low to prevent unaggressive AI if takeoff WP is missed<br> | ||
+ | Many tweaks to iconic events to ensure intended actions are included in the mission<br> | ||
+ | Fixed Mosquito payloads not available in briefing<br> | ||

+ | Add Me 410<br> | ||
+ | - III ZG 26 starting in June 1943<br> | ||
+ | Changed victory assignment logic in AAR<br> | ||
+ | - Better damage records allows me to determine who did the most damage. <br> | ||

+ | - Alternative is to add an A20 as a personal plane through equipment request.<br> | ||
+ | Moved KG 51 flying Me-262s to jet capable fields.<br> | ||
+ | - Longer flights, but at least takeoff should be doable.<br> | ||
+ | Made attempt to get fighter flights more aggressive<br> | ||
+ | Removed 150 octane as a stock modification<br> | ||
+ | - Allied planes on the continent were not flying with 150 octane<br> | ||

You will get much more variety, in particular. lots more rain and snow. Most battle areas have upwards of 25% rainy days. <br> <br>Any given weather pattern may or may not impact a given mission type. If it is overcast and rainy most of the missions are going to be pushed to low altitude. Dive bombing missions are particularly affected. Dive bombing will be swapped for an attack mission where the Stuka will drop bombs much like a fighter or IL2. Tactical bombing will be pushed lower. Patrols will be pushed lower. Deeper penetration missions will be scrapped in favor of lower altitude missions near the front. <br> <br>If cloud cover is not overcast or heavy then you will fly the missions as usual with whatever cloud cover there may be. <br> <br>Weather related advanced configuration: <br>Campaign ->Configuration -> Advanced Config -> Weather <br>Use realistic weather: set to 1 to use weather than includes heavier weather. Set to 0 to fly in relatively clear skies (Still has clouds but no rain) <br>Min Haze/Max Haze: Minimum and maximum values for haze. Proper values are 1-10. This makes use of the new haze feature <br>Max Wind: Not a new config. Maximum wind speed in meters per second <br>Max turbulence: Not a new config. Proper values are 1-10. Maximum turbulence value in the mission. <br> <br>11.7.2 <br>Fix the thing that I broke in 11.7.1 (which fixed the thing that I broke in 11.7.0) <br>- Escort and air start were fixed in 11.7.1 but virtual start got broken <br>Verified proper spawn and activity of player air start, escort air start, and virtual flights. <br>Thanks @FodderMonkey <br> <br>11.7.1<br>Fixed air start <br>Fixed escorts for player not appearing<br> <br>11.7.0<br>Added Bf109 G6 Late<br>Added Paper Dolls in medal view <br>- Thanks to @ual002 for all of the hard work in making these things.

Most battle areas have upwards of 25% rainy days. <br> <br>Any given weather pattern may or may not impact a given mission type. If it is overcast and rainy most of the missions are going to be pushed to low altitude. Dive bombing missions are particularly affected.

Latest revision as of 14:02, 19 July 2024
How to update:
You can unzip [the downloaded update file] and let it overwrite. It will not overwrite your campaigns or other settings.
A cleaner way is to back up the user folder (PWCGBoS\User) somewhere else. Delete PWCGBoS. Unzip again. Restore your user folder.
The versions
16.0.1
Bugs:
- Added missing profiles and pictures for Li2 and La 5 S38
- Fixed issue with FC new pilot creation for coop campaigns
16.0.0
FC:
Added western front map with seasons
Expanded FC squadrons available
Rearranged all FC squadron assignments to fit expanded map (and be more accurate)
Added RE8
- Strutter and Dorand AR are RE8s.
BoS:
- Added Li2
- Added La5 S.38
- Added Spitfire Mx.IXc
- Added IAR as a possible replacement plane
Bugs:
- Fixed autumn season for FC map
- Fixed cannot add a pilot to SP campaigns
- Fixed iconic missions from the main screen
- Fixed Squadron Logs
- Fixed static planes damage too high
15.1.1
Added Ultra Low ground to eliminate trains and trucks.
- Good for WWI where you are not really roaming the countrside
- reduced infantry
Added Ultra AAA to reduce the gobs of AAA in PWCG missions.
- PWCG puts over 400 AAA units on the map at medium AA levels,so ultra low isn't really a tiny number
- No AAA around bridges
- No AAA around railroad stations
- No AAA on airfield approaches
- reduced AAA on airfields
- slightly reduced AAA on front lines
Added rare plane flight odds config
- Gotha, HP, Arado
- Limits frequency of mission generation for certain rare planes
- Controllable through advanced config: Mission Limits section
Added Adjustment To Pilot Injury config
- Allows incremental downgrade of injuries suffered by player
- Number 0-4. Every number causes injury downgrade from dead-> seriously wounded -> wounded - just ducky
- Controllable through advanced config: Campaign Preferences section
Fixed FC airfield Beugnatre
Fixed escorts for players using check zones
Fixed cold start disabled for coops.
Fixed inability to work with coop pilots (transfer, activate, etc.)
15.1.0
Added Bf109-G6 AS, Spitfire Mk XIVe, Sopwith Snipe and SSW D.IV
Fixed issues around adding a coop user
Fixed briefing issues for coop missions
Fixed zero altitude scramble and strategic intercept missions
Fixed issue that could have neutral targets chosen
The 109 and Spitfire are available to any units that already fly the 109 and Gryphon Spitfire (66th and I forget who else).
The SSW is available for Jasta 12.
The Snipe is available for No 43 Squadron and No 4 Squadron AFC, very late in the war.
15.0.0
For all:
- Missions generate about 10x faster
- Added protection for instances of bad log data
- Reduced infantry by quite a bit
PWCG for FC 2
- FC2 map
- Fronts move in 1918
- Squadrons redeploy based on historical events
Squadron skins with tactical codes for all units.
- Must download ALL FC skin packs.
- Newer skin packs made by me are labeled "FC Squadron"
- Existing skin packs are labeled "FC Skin"
- Both sets contain squadron skins, so you need all of the packs.
14.1.4
Another attempt at sweeping the runway clean.
Improvements to campaign generation
- Validate name to prevent downstream errors
- Must now select a map. Ensures data integrity later in the process
If parked is selected and the map ios Normandy and the campaign is not coop, no runway starts
- Parked starts will not work in Normandy
- I left the option available to coop as they might be able to pull it off with no AI in the flight.
Cleaned up transfer screen. Transfers to transport now work.
Fixed transport missions
- They are now one way.
- Intermediate waypoints are editable
- No parachute drops in England
14.1.3
Fixed error in tactical code config that could cause mission generation to fail.
14.1.2
C47 is flyable in a campaign
Fix something that I fixed in 14.1.1 (fixes failure to generate mission)
14.1.1
Fixed two issues that could cause AARs to fail
Made an attempt at fixing AI flies to enemy base
14.1.0
Completion of blank Squadron skins.
Over 600 skins added
What is a "squadron skin?". it is a skin configured in PWCG to be used as the generic squadron skin. So it is a blank with a unit marking on it.
- All variations of an aircraft were done, so a P47D22 for a squadron will take up to 8 skins with green, silver, plain, and 3 variations of Normandy markings.
- Russian aircraft might have multiple camo schemes over time and concurrently. German planes often had multiple concurrent camo schemes.
- No British squadron skins as they did not have squadron markings other than the code. The existing blank skins are adequate.
- The different paint schemes and markings will add some life and the use of codes will make every aircraft in the mission unique.
Changed takeoff WP priority to low to prevent unaggressive AI if takeoff WP is missed
Many tweaks to iconic events to ensure intended actions are included in the mission
Fixed Mosquito payloads not available in briefing
Fixed Mosquito payload in Lb not Kg.
Fixed wrong image context sometimes used (RAF logbook for German pilot, etc.)
Fixed introduction date of Tempests to 56th squadron
Moved introduction of Free French (326th Squadron) to March 1943
Fixed "Dover Castle" typo
Fixed Kingsnorth typo

- About 100 new squadron skins based on the new blank skins
Added code to not kill pilots who bail out
- Used to avoid killing everybody that bails out over water

PWCG 11.8.0 weather modifications
The mission will conform to the weather. You will get much more variety, in particular. lots more rain and snow. Most battle areas have upwards of 25% rainy days.
Any given weather pattern may or may not impact a given mission type. If it is overcast and rainy most of the missions are going to be pushed to low altitude. Dive bombing missions are particularly affected. Dive bombing will be swapped for an attack mission where the Stuka will drop bombs much like a fighter or IL2. Tactical bombing will be pushed lower. Patrols will be pushed lower. Deeper penetration missions will be scrapped in favor of lower altitude missions near the front.
If cloud cover is not overcast or heavy then you will fly the missions as usual with whatever cloud cover there may be.
Weather related advanced configuration:
Campaign ->Configuration -> Advanced Config -> Weather
Use realistic weather: set to 1 to use weather than includes heavier weather. Set to 0 to fly in relatively clear skies (Still has clouds but no rain)
Min Haze/Max Haze: Minimum and maximum values for haze. Proper values are 1-10. This makes use of the new haze feature
Max Wind: Not a new config. Maximum wind speed in meters per second
Max turbulence: Not a new config. Proper values are 1-10. Maximum turbulence value in the mission.

The replacement pool is periodically replenished.
Over time equipment will become more of an issue, but not to a severe degree.
Slightly equipment depleted AI squadrons may not fly.
Severely equipment depleted AI squadrons will not fly.
The player's squadron will not fly if severely equipment depleted.
Made tweaks tp odds of other squadrons flying.
Landing improved: planes on the Moscow map will land and taxi to a revetment before disappearing.
@Murleen
A first for PWCG. Murleen has contributed Java code. This is the first time in nine years that an outside author has written Java code for PWCG!
Also a first: PWCG is now available on GitHub.
Murleen's contributions were a bug fix for spawn parsing and .. this was a lot of work on his part ... the landing correction noted above. Many thanks.
Bugs:
Fixed spawn event parsing error
Fixed failure to create ground attack missions
Fixed failure to note missions flown.
Fixed Italian campaign.
PWCG 4.0.0
Every squadron in PWCG is staffed.
Every plane in the mission maps to a pilot in PWCG
Out of mission events affect pilots in PWCG.
If a pilot gains a victory out of mission, the victim will also be a pilot in PWCG.
The fate of the plane and pilot are separated - a pilot can easily survive being shot down.
A replacements pool of pilots exists.- During each time cycle, "needy squadrons" request replacements. Replacements are distributed from the pool.
The replacement pool is drained to compensate for squadron losses.
There is a lag between the time a pilot is lost and the time that the request for a replacement is acknowledged.
The replacement pool is periodically replenished.
Over time manpower will become more of an issue, but not to a severe degree.
Slightly depleted AI squadrons may not fly.
Severely depleted AI squadrons will not fly.
The player's squadron will not fly if severely depleted.
PWCG 3.5.0
Add several new mission variations
- Low altitude bombing
- Low altitude patrols
- Low altitude battlefield CAP
Improved climb WP generation to reduce climb WPs to only as many as necessary to achieve altitude.
Bugs:
Fixed starting behind enemy lines (PWCG was still using old as well as new front line transitions)
PWCG 3.4.1
Add Yak7B
Restore squadrons fro Me-109 E-7, Me-110, Hs-129, Ju-52
Enabled mixed flights
Fixed missing aircraft profiles
PWCG 3.4.0
Altered squadrons for smoother transition in "Battles" format.
- Squadron transition within a single squadron file. Causes natural movement through battles without actively transferring.
- Movement through battles from 1 Oct 1941 to 1 Dec 1943
- Includes early German advance through Kuban to Stalingrad and Russian advance after Stalingrad.
- Fewer squadrons for less density. Still pretty dense, especially Kuban.
New planes:
- A20
- P39
- La5N
- Me109G6
PWCG 3.3.3
Bugs:
Fixed PWCG does not work with latest BoX
PWCG 3.3.2
Bugs:
Fixed error when modifying advanced configuration
PWCG 3.3.1
Extend Kuban action back to July 1942. Add mountain flying.
Added config to reduce smoke in a given area. Smoke is now controlled by two parameters: max smoke in mission and max smoke within a radius.
Campaign->Advanced Config -> Mission Limits
-> Max Smoke In Mission
-> Max Smoke In Area
Cleaned up weather inputs in advanced config
Bugs:
Fixed will not respond to changes in "'Maximum amount of smoke" as intended
Fixed Radio beacon doesn't work (I think)
Fixed Attack marker showing up over friendly forces
Fixed No landing if player chooses air start
Fixed Freeze if number of aircraft config changes (max planes per flight will now be 😎
Fixed failure to create campaign in some situations
Fixed when flying the E7, selecting the 'remove headrest' option adds an armored windscreen instead (and vice versa I assume).
PWCG 3.3.0
Added Ju52
Add transport missions.
- Transport cargo from field to field.
- Parachute drop, daytime and nighttime.
- Cargo drop near front.
- Spy extraction.
Add anti shipping missions in Kuban

Add target preferences based on history. i..e. Drifters near Stalingrad in November, shipping at Kuban in Sept 1943, etc.
Bug fixes:
Reduced and normalized waypoint speeds to help formations
Added missing Kuban bridges
Improved climb wps. Climb into mission if far from front.
Fixed freeze error on some Russian ground attack missions
Rewrote target finding algorithm for fewer failures.
Fixed AAA not appearing along front and at installations
Fixed campaign property bug that caused all defaults to be copied over.
