Official Free Historical Campaign "Wild Mustangs" - P51 D

[Jaegermeister]

 This is a 12 mission historically based scripted campaign for the P-51D-22 Mustang on the Rhineland map. The majority of the information for these missions came from The 370th Fighter Group in WWII, In Action over Europe with the P-38 and P-51 by Jay Jones. Various other sources were used as well. You will need IL2 Battle of Bodenplatte installed to play it.

 

 

A special thanks goes to @Mysticpuma for producing the following trailer video and assisting during testing of the missions...

 

 

There are now 2 versions of this campaign. If you own Battle of Bodenplatte, the Official version is already available in your Scripted Campaigns section and you do not need to do anything to play it. The “Unofficial” version has slightly altered ground texture files included with some added detail in the airfield and target areas. The .zip file containing the campaign mission files also contains a group of custom 370th Fighter Group skins made specifically for this campaign by @Dannoh. I greatly appreciate his efforts with those works of art!

 

A link to download the campaign file is available here;

 

Download "Unofficial" Wild Mustangs Campaign

 

Once the file is downloaded to your computer, you can either unzip it directly to your IL2 main directory, or you can extract the files and manually place them in the appropriate locations. You should leave subtitles active to see in game messages while flying the missions, but there are no special directions that are not listed in the briefings.

 

In addition to the individuals mentioned above, I would also like to thank @AEthelraedUnraed for posting his guide on surface editing which has helped me tremendously. I would probably not have been able to make the surface texture enhancements in the missions without his help. The surface texture files are included with the mission files and install in the same location. 

 

 

 

 

 

Please post any issues you have with the campaign or comments in this thread. I hope you enjoy flying your Mustang with the 370th!

Edit... I am currently preparing to revise all mission files to correct the skin assignments and any other errors reported in the other forum threads.

Please post any new issues here.
