It would be safe to say there is not a single development in this movie that cannot accurately be predicted by any audience member familiar with the requirements of the genre.Īnd yet, despite everything I have said, I found "Memphis Belle" entertaining, almost in spite of my objections. On the ground, the characters are equally machinemade, from the taciturn commanding officer to the heartless general to the shameless flack. The Flying Fortress used in "Memphis Belle" has such a large crew that the movie is fatally slowed as the screenplay works its way around and around the characters, trying to keep them all alive.Įach character is a different cliche: the cool and calculated captain, the jittery gunner and his practical-joking sidekick, the superstitious one, etc. Michael Powell used exactly the same strategy to introduce the bomber crew members in his wartime drama "One of Our Aircraft is Missing," with the difference that he used a Wellington bomber, because its crew of six was easier for the audience to keep straight. And given the fact that these man have flown 24 missions together, I hardly thought it necessary for them to introduce themselves by name to their pilot - but then the introductions really were for us, and the roll call was an economical way to explain their various jobs - co-pilot, radioman, navigator, tail gunner, bombardier, etc. man ( John Lithgow), assigned to stage-manage the final raid for Life magazine. The voice-over narration is by an Army Air Force P.R. The crew, we learn, has survived 24 bombing raids over Germany. Then, later, we learn what assignments they have onboard the Memphis Belle when the pilot holds a roll call and they sign in, giving their names and battle stations. The movie begins while we see the young men playing football, and a voice-over narration names them and provides them with thumbnail character sketches.
They have to introduce a dozen crew members of the Memphis Belle, and then somehow make them all memorable within the cramped confines of a plot where most of them have to wear oxygen masks most of the time. This is the set of codes that define what your crew member looks like.The task of the filmmakers is thankless. "Headgear": "HeadgearHelmetFlakMk2Goggles", You may change the secondary skilltype as if you re-train your crew in-game This is your crew member's secondary skill (training). Recommended NOT to change primary skill type. This is your crew member's primary skill (training). "m_homeTown": "Bishop's Stortford\r", // Hometown "m_survivalSeaBoost": XX // Survival (Sea) "m_survivalLandBoost": XX, // Survival (Land) "m_temperatureResistBoost": XX, // Thermal I think they all max to 226 but beware that having higher values than the max may break your game. You can change the numbers to what you want. The following is your crew member's stats. "m_traitName": "traits_commercial_pilot", // Trait (see the following guide for more information) The section with // means that everything after is just a comment and not part of the actual file.ĭo not copy the comment to include in your save file. The following lists what you'll see in your text editor and what they mean. Editing their values will have no impact on your current game. The other section lists your crew that you played in the tutorial. You'll want to edit the one that has the "m_activeCrewmen" tag.
You'll see two sections with some familiar crew names in both sections. When ready to edit the file, open it with any text editor like Notepad, Notepadd++, etc. If you only have 1 saved game that you play then you'll want to edit BC_SaveSlot(version#)_0Ĭopy and Paste this file into either the same folder or a new folder to create a back up copy of your game before editing it so you can copy its original contents back into the file if you manage to corrupt your saved game later. The file you'll want to edit using the text editor is called something along the line of BC_SaveSlot(version #)_X, where if X=0 means that the Save file would be the one that's on the first saved game slot. You can change this setting by following these steps in Win10:Ĭlick the View tab > Options > Change folder and search options > View > Select Show hidden files, folders, and drives > OK If you don't see the AppData hidden folder, then you'll want change the Options to see hidden files and folders in Explorer. Here's a complete path where you might find yours:Ĭ: > Users > (your profile name) > AppData (hidden folder) > LocalLow > Runner Duck > Bomber Crew The save file you want to edit is located in a hidden folder in your C: (or main local disk) directory
