To all,
It took a lot of hand-editing to untwist the editing the Cliff Burgess did to the CFS1 Mediterranean Beaufighter campaign, but I got the missions into "proper" CFS1 format and was able to successfully convert them to CFS2. Not one of them was lost or corrupted in the process!
It's based on this: http://www.simviation.com/cgi-bin/sy...le=MedBeau.zip
Now that I am able to examine these missions in MB, there are nineteen of them in a campaign ranging from 1942 to 1944. The area of coverage is wide, including Egypt, Tunisia, Italy, Yugoslavia, Corsica, Southern France, Malta, Algeria, and Sicily. If any of you have any other well-documented Beaufighter missions during this time period, especially any that involve Gibraltar, let me know and I might be able to accommodate you. The Allied landings of Sicily, Italy, and preparations for Operation Dragoon are included in the time frame.
This is still a LONG way from completion, but the rest is repetitive and familiar. CFS1 missions when they are converted have no dynamic elements, so all of those have to be created. But, if the conversion to CFS2 doesn't work, that's typically where the project ends for me. So, this barrier has been broken.
I'll be using the Mk. Ic, the Mk. VIc, and the Mk. X for this campaign.
