Just bought the game on sale and find I have missed out on the tracker link.

Is there any way to get it posted to the main board/threads?

You'll love this game. Or you'll hate this game. Welcome!

wow -- that was very kind of you cohimbra.

I bought this game way back under talonsoft days and enjoyed it then.
This file-reader appears to be sort of a mini-"tracker" program like used with War in the Pacific-AE.

Thanks so much.

Thanks for telling me your opinions.
I began to think that it is no good idea to "correct" the original
action report values. The fog of war is WAD and so there is no need to alter it.

btw, here is a screenshot that shows the next feature of my message reader.
A BIG thanks to Mikkey, who showed me how to realize this! [&o]

This is an extremely useful and important tool, thx!

I cant find any info on individual kills as in this picture (1Lt Clarence Seltz scores kill number 1)
Can someone help me, as Id love to keep track on individual pilot kills.

Once you get in to your game, click in order:

List Air Units
Pick the type of aircraft your pilot is flying
Pick his squadron/group
Detail
Pilots

You will then get a complete list of all the pilots in the squadron and assorted info about them, including the number of missions they have flown and how many kills they have.

Thanks for the reply. I didnt make myself clear enough, that info you described is well known to me :) What I meant is I am interested in the specific info on individual kills as listed in the photo (1x MC202 Folgore destroyed and after that 1st Lt Clarence Seltz scores kill number x).

I found that Creeper's tool won't read the message files from AE's "new life" mod data (at least on my machine) but I use the message reader from AE's mod fine.

I'm playing a pbem 1940 full campaign as luftwaffe, after I have given mission orders for first turn now I've received turn from my english opponent, so I open the message reader, and it finds no one message, doesn't message reader work fully on pbem games?

all other functions of message reader are ok

EDIT useless question, I use AE's unofficial patch, so message reader doesn't work well cause this as for simovitch
