oxford 3

You can also edit the "campaign.py"-file in the "modules"-folder. Go to oxford-mission 3, in line 1112 (#mission arguments) and replace "demon" with "talon" or even "talon.blank". Now you can win the mission. Perhaps not on the first run, but not after a week.

Very true, but I like to be able to reset to normal quickly and easily.

I have two different tractor beams in my game. One for the cheat games and one for the standard games.

That way I can play a regulation game and give things a fair play-test. Changing the mission is something I leave up to the developers like Daniel. I KNOW I can change things globally to suit, but then I can't give the game a fair play test.

Thanks Chief. That mission had been impossible to complete with the Demons. I managed to get it done the first time against the Talons. I just couldn't hit the Demons even with autotracking and even 20 FF missiles wasn't enough.

No it wasn't.

Then you get the obvious loner like me. I have reportcards from olden-days, the wunnerful days of yester-year, that say, doesn't play or get along well with others....

For me, it's a solitary gig, I hate having wingmen get in my way. Blam! Oh, gee, dude, sorry about that. Didn't mean to take off the eingines like that.... Yes I KNOW I'm on your side, but why'd you get between me and the bad guy?

Welcome StahlX if you noticed this is an old thread there may have been changes so this little hack may no longer be valid :( Lots of the PR guys hang here now http://wcjunction.com/phpBB2/index.php? ... 5198c7191f

there is also a couple new campaigns to fly.

Enjoy the Choice :)
