Greetings,
I recently installed FA again to bring back some old memories and stumbled accross your site and your JKPFA 4.55 lib. Your new version of the JKPFA lib sounds very exciting, as does your 1024x768 cockpits!
In any event, I am in the planning stages of a ~40 mission campaign using the old Ukraine map aka USNF and wanted to know if I start designing with the JKPFA 4.55 lib, will I have problems when the new lib is released. Will it require me to rebuild the missions with all new objects or will the existing objects still be the same?
I hope to create a campaign where the player focuses on flying for Bulgaria, Romania, Moldova, and Poland, with a potential to fly for the Ukraine at some point in time.
This brings me to a few questions I have:
1. Do those Ukraine season specific libs just change textures? I ask because if I build custom airports for each side and I want to switch a season, will I have to rebuild the airports?
2. Can I change the side of a specific airport in a mission to simulate a Russian offensive. Example: Russians take over Odessa, can I just change Odessa to be russian controlled while keeping the remaining Ukrainian runways Ukrainian?
3. When editing a mission, can I go into a 3d view to move objects. I seem to remember you could do this somehow, but I can't remember if its possible for sure (I sure hope it is - it's been almost 8 or 9 years since I've touched the mission editor!). I fear I won't be able to accurately place runways if I can't see them in a 3d view to check their positions. Any ideas here?
I appreciate your comments and suggestions as I embark on this project. I have 11 missions planned and another 10 or so in the early stages so it will soon be time to start designing

I would love to have a MiG-21bis-D/Lancer, as it's the upgraded MiG-21 flown by Romania. If you're thinking of more aircraft for the next release, I know I'd just love to see it.
