  1. American North West - 4 Seasons Rebuild


    Upgrade for America NorthWest Terrains: 4 Seasons Inclusive Build


     

    -for SF/WoV/WoE/WoI and maybe FE?


     

    The original America Northwest Terrains; AmerianNW, AmericanNWinter and AmericaNWSpring, were released sometime back in 2003. They are exceedling FUN maps to fly on, as they are full of deep canyons and high mountain ranges. But...with the advent of the 9/08 patch for the entire 3rd Wire series, they can now be combined into ONE terrain, and with a few ini edits, allow for =ALL= 4 season to be present in ONE terrain folder. Seasonal changes are based upon the date a mission is flown, in single mission (month/day - year makes no difference), and probably in campaigns as well
     
    This package includes ALL 4 seasons for Major Lee's "America NorthWest" series, combined.This package is designed to TOTALLY REPLACE =ALL= the original terrains, with one single install. Editing has been done to the all the inis, as per the latest patch standards. Included are also my targets and movements enhancements, as seen in a 8/07 upgrade, with some additions.
     
    Included are the "Spring", "Summer" (by CA_Stary), "Thaw" (by Doghouse & Deuces), and "Winter" seasons as new subfolders of this rebuilt terrain. A new 'EnvrionmentalSystem.ini', that is terrain specific, was created that raises the cloud deck OFF the mountains. It's also super easy to edit, to allow for lower clouds, if that is your wish. You'll also find regional specific trees (pine) scattered across the landscape. It looks sooo much better with trees!!! :) For those looking for it, YES, there are more than a couple of Easter Eggs, as you've all come to expect.
     
    While set in the "What If.." world of the Global Sedition vs the North American Alliance, it's quite usable for just about anything. =EXCEPTING= no anti-ship missions, as there's no large bodies of water for shipping routes. (see my pleas for retiling in the "General Notes and Other Nonsense" section below)
    The movements ini has been expanded for more Armed Recon missions, with additional truck routes for both sides. Additonal targets have been added (one new city, airport and train stations for each side), and new Ground Attack routes for CAS missions. I added an oil field to the Alliance side, to give the Sedition forces something extra to bomb, and Alliance forces something to protect. I figure the story line would be "short on resources, the Global Sedititon is trying to capture the Salmon River Oil Fields and Elk Mountains Uranium Mines for their own". New country flags have been added (the 2 GS and Alliance flags are still here!) for NAA alllies - USA and Canada.
     
    This has been tested in WoE (my main Laboratory of choice..) As it was originally built for SF, no worries there. WoV should also be no problem. It -should- work in WoI and First Eagles, but you'll still need one of the Original 3 Terrains ™ for the terrain cat reacharound. This, however, has =NOT= been tested. You use it in these games at your own risk.
    Vista users should also have no problem with terrain effects, as the latest round of patching has apparently cleared up that problem. And the fact that there's no water on this map.....
     
    Included as well is FastCargo's SON-9A "FireCan" AA control radar, and some ini updates for a few of the stock "Red" AAA units, networking them to the FireCan.
     
    PLEASE read this entire ReadMe all the way through before installing; there are some issues I've encountered that need some explaining, and this will give you a better understanding of what I've tried to accomplish.
     
    Good Hunting & Happy Landings!!!

  2. Afghanistan terrain Beta 0.6

    Afghanistan Terrain Beta 0.6
    ========================
     
    I.
    AFGHANISTAN Terrain IS MADE FOR WINGS OVER ISRAEL (WOI) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    This package is a work in progress preview. It should allow you a short view into this project. It is far away to be finished. Also, dont worry if you find bugs.
     
    ***************************************
    II.
    From December 1979 till now Afghanistan is a land in war. Soviets, Dushmans, Mudjahedin, Warlords, Taliban and Americans (OEF) destroyed the once florish land nearly completly.
    This terrain is dedicated to all man who fought in this country and to all who lost their lives in a senseless war.
     
    *****************************************
    III.
     
    Afghanistan terrain is a Beta, so far, that not the entire land is covered at the moment. Finished, or nearly finished is the area around Kabul, Bagram, Jalalabad, Kunduz and Mazar i Sharif. This area is now completly tiled and the target areas are set.
    So you can fly and fight along the Jala Road and surrounding mountains and in the north eastern part of Afghanistan where today the German ISAF sector is situated. You will find enemy positions in the hills and valleys north of Bagram, but also single bandit troops on the soviet/allied hold lowlands. You will find friendly and enemy fortified hill positions
     
    - number of set target areas: -90
    - Missions which can be flown are CAS, Armed Recon, Recon, Strike,SEAD
    -Air to air missions are impossible, because no taliban airfield is set (as historical correct)
     
    -I recommend a seperate installation of WOI for Afghanistan terrain. The new nations.ini would otherwise make trouble with other terrains. (I set all nations = friendly, only Afghanistan= Enemy
    So you can fly for the Soviets and the OEF troops( USA,UK,NL etc) against the same Enemy)
    You can delete not needed planes (for instance Mirages) and groundobjects (SAM, Radar,most tanks etc) and you can include needed planes, like the Mi-24 or the A-10 more easily.
    -Panzers, like T-54,55,62 etc should be redesignated from TANK to ARTILLERY in their groundobjects data.ini. The reason is, that Panzers are widely useless in such a mountainous land. With the groundobjects i have included in this package you will have infantry engagements which are more Afghan style
     
    *******************************************
    IV.
    INSTALLATION:
     
    -Unzip the file into your Wings over Israel
     
    Thats it!
     
    If you want then you can place mainscreen.bmp into your menu folder.
     
     
    ******************************************
    V. Credits
    At this place i want to say thank you to Geo for his permission to use his SquadCent files which i modified into Taliban warriors etc. And to Wrench who allowed me to use Montys Stinger site which i modified into Blowpipe and Strela site. I want to say thank you to Pasko who made the lod file for the BTR-60 and 70 and the single soldier with SA-7 which i also use for RPG-7 and Mortar (recoilless gun.)
    I want to say thank you to _____ for the Taliban Dushka and the Toyota Hillux. And i want to say thank you to Capun for the permission to use his Mi-8 and Mi-24 as shot down heli ground objects.
     
    *******************************************
     
    VI.
    Afghanistan Terrain IS FREEWARE. COMMERCIAL USE IS NOT ALLOWED.
    Sharing of Groundobjects which are part of this package needs the permission of their makers.
     
    If you find bugs please post them in StrikeFighters section of Combatace.com forum.

    Hope you enjoy it. Good Hunting along the Jalalabad road!

  3. Isreal2 ver 2.5 by Gepard

    Isreal 2 Terrain Upgrade for WoI -- Version 2.5
     
    This update/rebuild is designed to REPLACE the one I released in March, 2008.
     
    This is an extensive expansion of Gepard's "Isreal 2" full-scale map he made several years ago for Strike Fighters. What this will do, is allow its usage in WoI (or any of the other games, for that matter). There has also been a massive 'cleanup' of several of the additonal airfields as originally issued. I've removed, for the most part, all but one runway where there were mulitples.
     
    Several new items have been added to the types ini, allowing the 1948-1967 timeframe for Historical missions and Campaigns in the Middle East region. This IS the full terrain =complete with tiles, tods, hm bmps in short, everything needed to correct pre-patch errors, and is designed to replace to earlier version, dated March 2008. This is updated to the latest standards, post 8/28/08 patch for WoI and WoV/WoE. This build repairs the sinking into the terrain, odd elevations and other funny business. Those still using SF will not benefit from this upgrade, and will not get the game generated parked aircraft.
     
    It has been extensively upgraded, with new movement, targets and types ins. Water effects are active, so Vista users take note...more information for you is below in the Install Instructions. See "Notes for Vista Users" below.
    Contraindicated: post-patch, the water effects for Vista users seem to be working.
     
    It is reccomended (read: REQUIRED) that you have Pasko's SAMs and Vehicles Pak installed in your GroundObject folder; expecially the Desert skinned vehicles, plus any additional vehicles such as Kesselbrut's ZIL truck pak, Infantry paks, Moonjumper's fix for the BM-14-16 (adds working Kytusha rockets) and any other SAMS or AAA, vehicles or whatever strikes your fancy. The SAMs are pretty important, as there are several batteries that call out for the SA-3 specifically, and the stock in-game SA-2s along the "SAM Fence" at the Suez Canal (although, they should be outside the historical year range I've designed it for this; call it a "backdated map"). As such, this map should be usable in the timeframes of 1948-2050.
    Please note: the ground objects included in the March 2008 build are NOT included with this version.
     
    It is designed to use either the Bunyap or Mirage Factory Weapons Pak; some of the names for the IDF air defenses (ie: the HAWKs and their associated radars) and their 'arranements', are taken from Nick Bell's 'NATO Air Defense Mod'; these are the names used for the 2 HAWK radars.
     
    As stated above, it is =specifically= designed for use with Wings Over Isreal. It has -also- been tested in SF, WoE and WoV, but to have the proper feel, use it in WoI only.
     
    Remember: this terrain IS designed with the 1948-1966 timeframe in mind; although there ARE many target areas still active for later years (ie: Canal SAM Fence, possibly the Cyprus airfields), but the WoI IsraelME terrain works best for 1967 and later years. As it was designed to.
     
    As always, there's an extensive, highly detailed readme with step-by-step instructions. You all should know what to do by this point.
    A (hopefully) full listing of contributors is in the readme...with my thanks for all their help.
     
    Happy Landings!!!

  8. China (WW2) Upgrade Pak

    China Terrain Upgrade: For WW2 PTO mods
     
    This mod is an upgrade to Edward's WW2 China terrain. What I've done is added LOTS of new targets to the existing target areas, and replaced at least one airfield on each side with a newly repainted "desert airfiled 1", which is now a medium dirt runway (note: IJ forces get MORE than one!). The 'new' target areas are enhancements of already existing ones -- I've just added some more things here and there to make it look a little more populated. There are a couple of new parked planes, based of existing ones, hex-edited and reskinned for their proper users. Also a couple of Easter Eggs...you'll just have to find them for yourselves! New planning maps for all 3 zoom levels are also included.
     
    This is a fairly 'target rich' environment -- there are plenty of items for strike and anti-shipping missions (A.S. missions ONLY for the Allied side - there are NO Allied shipping routes for IJ Forces to attack on this map, as is historical). It is also fairly well defended - so watch out for the flak.
     
    It is suggested, just as an "oh, by the way....", that you install this upgrade into a CBI ONLY version of your PTO game install. Historically, there are many aircraft that are (and should be) "Theatre Specific". Meaning, you shouldn't be seening Zekes over China after December, 1941. While outside the scope of this mod, there IS a specific plane-set for use in the CBI.
    You can, of course!, install it into a "Full PTO" style game install; you'll just have everybody and their brother flying around.
     
    You MUST have ALL the Pacific Objects (ground units, ships, AAA, infantry, etc) already installed in you CBI/PTO version of the game; otherwise things won't be appearing. This is especially important for the ships -- make sure you have the barges (get both, they're needed in the GO folder), the Liberty ship, and all warships, both Allied and Japanese. Don't forget to check Geo's page for more WW2 goodies ... there's a lot of stuff that's usable (and used!) here as well. Hinchbrooke has some very nice Royal Navy battleships. <wink>
     
    It is also reccomended that you have installed CA_Stary's WW2 hangars and buildings. They have a nice worn green wood-ish texture, and look really good.
    The data ini has been upgraded to the latest standards. Water effects are active, so Vista users beware...more information for you is below in the Install Instructions. See "Notes for Vista Users".
     
    = MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE LATEST, WW2 NATIONS INI IN YOUR FLIGHT FOLDER =
    = MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE LATEST WW2 FORMATIONS INI IN YOUR FLIGHT FOLDER =
    == MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE LATEST WEAPONS PAK FOR THE WW2 WEAPONS!! ==
     
    It has been tested in SF, WoV and WoE, using their cats pointed to in the main ini. As the new objects will be residing directly in the terrain folder, you should have no problems. (see the CombatAce Knowledge Base for the tutorial on using the cat pointer line). It has NOT, however, been tested in post 8/29/08 patch WoI. But should work with minimal problems, as long as one of the original terrain folders (SF/WoV/WoE) is residing in you WW2 WoI install. You do, however, use this in WoI at YOUR own risk.
    It has been tested with the stock as-issued terrain tiles, and Bran32s repaints. The new tiles are NOT included. It has NOT been tested with any of the Green Hell mods, as I don't think south-central China is covered in jungle.....
     
    Follow these instructions herein =EXACTLY= and you should have no problems. It is HIGHLY reccomended that you read the install instructions all the way through FIRST before performing the procedure. Just to be safe, ya know??
     
    Happy Landings!

  9. Darwin (WW2) Update Pak

    Darwin (WW2) Terrain Upgrade: For WW2 PTO mods SF/WoV/WoE -ONLY-
     
    This mod is a relatively simple upgrade to Edward's WW2 Darwin terrain. What I've done is added LOTS of new targets to the existing target areas, and replaced at least one airfield, on each side, with a repainted "desert airfiled 1", which is now a medium dirt runway. The 'new' target areas are enhancements of already existing ones -- I've just added some more things here and there to make it look a little more populated. There are a couple of new parked planes, based of existing ones, hex-edited and reskinned for their proper users.
     
    This is a fairly 'target rich' environment -- there are plenty of items for strike and anti-shipping missions. It is also fairly well defended - so watch out for the flak.
     
    It has been tested in SF, WoV and WoE, using their cats pointed to in the main ini. As the new objects will be residing directly in the terrain folder, you should have no problems. (see the CombatAce Knowledge Base for the tutorial on using the cat pointer line, or down below for full instructions)
     
    New planning maps (all 3) have been created; only the #3 map has the cities listed on it, to keep #1 & 2 fairly 'clean'.
     
    You MUST have ALL the Pacific Objects (ground units, ships, AAA, infantry, etc) already installed in you PTO version of the game; otherwise things won't be appearing. This is especially important for the ships -- make sure you have the barges (get both, they're needed in the GO folder), the Liberty ship, and all warships, both Allied and Japanese. Don't forget to check Geo's page for more WW2 goodies ... there's a lot of stuff that's usable (and used!) here as well. Hinchbrooke has some very nice Royal Navy battleships. <wink> However, you DO get a new PT Boat. The lods and skin bmps come from Edwards Solomons Terrain; I just built an half-assed data ini for it to add one more little ship.
     
    It is also reccomended that you have installed CA_Stary's WW2 hangars and buildings. They have a nice worn green wood-ish texture, and look really good in the PTO theatre! I have, also, included the original data ini with it's terrain and water effects activeated (Vista user take note!! -more for you below).
     
    I HAVE tested the map with both Brain32's tiles, and CA_Stary's "Green Hell'' mods; it is NOT set up for their use, and if you choose to install either of them, you do so at your own risk (not that anything bad would really happen...). See "Notes and Comments below for more". While they do greatly enhance the visual eye candy, there are several issues due to target placements.
     
    As stated above, the data ini has been upgraded to the latest standards. Water effects are active, so Vista users beware...more information for you is below in the Install Instructions. See "Notes for Vista Users".
     
    = MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE LATEST, WW2 NATIONS INI IN YOUR FLIGHT FOLDER =
    = MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE LATEST WW2 FORMATIONS INI IN YOUR FLIGHT FOLDER =
    == MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE LATEST WEAPONS PAK FOR THE WW2 WEAPONS!! ==

    Good Hunting!

  15. Midway Terrain version 1.1

    MIDWAY TERRAIN
    =====================
     
    I.
    Midway terrain is made for "Strike Fighters Project 1" SFP1.
     
    You can use it in Wings over Vietnam and Wings over Europe too.
    Wings over Israel can handle this terrain too, but the flight modells of prop driven planes shows anomalies in WOI.
     
    ==============================================
     
    II.
    Midway terrain covers a part of the Central Pacific Ocean with the atolls of Kure and Midway.
    It is the place were in 1942 a big Air-Sea-Battle was fought between the Imperial Japanese Navy and the US Navy. The japanese Navy was superior in numbers of ships, but the US side had some major advantages. No.1, the japanese communication code was broken, so that the US Navy commanders were able to read the enemy commands. No.2, the US had radar coverage, so that enemy surprise attacks were nearly impossible. No.3, the US had the superior number of airplanes which were deciding during the battle.
    The battle was fought as a pure air to sea combat. No single gunfire exchange between naval vessels took place.
    The result was that the japanese Navy lost 4 carriers and the US Navy lost 1 carrier. It was a impressive victory for the USA in Pacifice war theater. You can compare it with the Battle of Moscow on the Eastern Front or the first british victories in North Africa.

    *********************************************
    III Known problems
     
    Up today it is impossible to take off and land from carriers while using single missions which are generated by random single mission screen.
    Thatswhy i added invisible airfields for taking off and landing in the centre of carrier formations. You will also start from the sea. This is not satisfying. Thatswhy it is the best to start the mission in the air to overcome this problem.

    Q: How i can get Midway Terrain running in WOV, WOI or WOE
     
    A:
    1. Open file Midway.ini
    2. Look for line CatFile=..\Desert\Desert.cat
    3. Replace this line with:
    for WOV: CatFile=..\VietnamSEA\VietnamSEA.cat
    for WOI: CatFile=..\IsraelME\IsraelME.cat
    for WOE: CatFile=..\GermanyCE\GermanyCE.cat

  16. Burma (WW2) Terrain Hot Fix

    WW2 Burma Hot Fix - for SF/WoV/WoE, PTO Modded Installs
     
    This little package contains redone TFD and HFD files for Edward's WW2 Burma terrain.
    I did an ooopsy, and forgot to include them in the original Upgrad Pak.
     
    What this will do, is 'flatten' certain target areas, most notably Hanoi Airfield, and the various train stations, so their objects do not appear sunked into the ground.
    It will have NO effect on anything else.
     
    EASY to follow instructifications in the enclosed readme.
     
    Enjoy!

  17. Burma (WW2) Targets Upgrade Pak

    Burma Terrain Upgrade: For WW2 CBI/PTO mods
     
    This mod is a relatively simple upgrade to Edward's WW2 Burma terrain. What I've done is added LOTS of new targets to the existing target areas, and replaced at least one airfield with a newly repainted "desert airfiled 1", which is now a medium dirt runway. The 'new' target areas are enhancements of already existing ones -- I've just added some more things here and there to make it look a little more populated. There are a couple of new parked planes, based of existing ones, hex-edited and reskinned for their proper users.
     
    This is a fairly 'target rich' environment -- there are plenty of items for strike and anti-shipping missions. It is also fairly well defended - so watch out for the flak.
     
    It has been tested in SF, WoV and WoE, using their cats pointed to in the main ini. As the new objects will be residing directly in the terrain folder, you should have no problems. (see the CombatAce Knowledge Base for the tutorial on using the cat pointer line)
     
    It is suggested, just as an "oh, by the way....", that you install this upgrade into a CBI ONLY version of your PTO game install. Historically, there are many aircraft that are (and should be) "Theatre Specific". Meaning, you shouldn't be seening Zekes over Burma/Occupied Indo-China or China itself after December, 1941. While outside the scope of this mod, there IS a specific plane-set for use in the CBI.
    You can, of course!, install it into a "Full PTO" style game install; you'll just have everybody and their brother flying around.
     
    You MUST have ALL the Pacific Objects (ground units, ships, AAA, infantry, etc) already installed in you CBI/PTO version of the game; otherwise things won't be appearing. This is especially important for the ships -- make sure you have the barges (get both, they're needed in the GO folder), the Liberty ship, and all warships, both Allied and Japanese. Don't forget to check Geo's page for more WW2 goodies ... there's a lot of stuff that's usable (and used!) here as well. Hinchbrooke has some very nice Royal Navy battleships. <wink>
     
    It is also reccomended that you have installed CA_Stary's WW2 hangars and buildings. They have a nice worn green wood-ish texture, and look really good in the CBI theatre! Also (more below), the data ini I've supplied is based on using CA_Stary's "Green Hell" tiling mod for WoV's VietnamSEA. -- this mod is highly reccomended. I have, however, included the original data ini; also with it's terrain and water effects activated (Vista user take note!!)
     
    As stated above, the BOTH data inis has been upgraded to the latest standards. Water effects are active, so Vista users beware...more information for you is below in the Install Instructions. See "Notes for Vista Users".
     
    = MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE LATEST, WW2 NATIONS INI IN YOUR FLIGHT FOLDER =
    == MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE LATEST WW2 FORMATIONS INI IN YOUR FLIGHT FOLDER ==
    === MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE LATEST WEAPONS PAK FOR THE WW2 WEAPONS!! ===
    ==== MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE WW2 PLANES NEEDED, TOO. OTHERWISE IT'S KINDA BORING ====
     
    Follow these instructions herein =EXACTLY= and you should have no problems.
     
    As expected, there are highly detailed, step-by-step install procedures. I'd suggest reading the enclosed "readme" through FIRST before putting all the bits into the terrain folder -that should be standard CYA for any mods to be installed. And the usual Notes and Explinations, Credits and Other Nonsense.
     
    Good Luck, Good Hunting, and Happy Landings!!

  18. WW2 Europe by FNG2K & Edward

    Europe WW2 Terrain for SF, WoE & WoV
     
    I couldn't find the original readme, so we'll make due with this....
     
    This is FNG2K and Edward's WW2 Europe terrain, reissued for those that don't have it. It is NOT as released, as I've made some small changes over the years since it's original release, most notably in the area of 'Ground Objects'. I've pulled them out of the terrain folder, and re-created them as GroundObjects. Their main inis have been adjusted, as per Patch 4 to have them show the proper way.
     
    This is the COMPLETE terrain set, with all the various inis, bmps, tgas, and whatnot needed to ALMOST unzip and fly on. You'll be adding various items to several main game folders, so it is MORE THAN HIGHLY RECCOMENDED THAT THIS TERRAIN BE USED IN A "STAND-ALONE" WW2 ETO/SWOTL GAME INSTALL. For information on how to create one, if you don't know already, consult the Knowledge Base at CombatAce.
    You'll find that information here: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showtopic=19630
     
    Water effects are active, so Vista users take note...more information for you is below in the Install Instructions. See "Notes for Vista Users".
     
    It is HIGHLY reccomended you have Geo's WW2 Ground Object Pak, for the various and sundry trucks, tanks, AFVs, AAA units and etcs. I've included as many as I can positively ID as coming with the original terrain set, as stated above, now turned into GroundObjects. Hopefully, I've filtered out the permissioned ones. If not, I apologize in advance.
     
    NOTE: this terrain is NOT reccomended for use in a WW2 ETO/SWOTL install based on Wings Over Israel. WoI handles prop flight models in a 'most peculiar way', and you'll experience massive frustration in just trying to fly. It is designed, originally, for SF, but works in WoE and WoV, as long as the proper terrain cat is selected. See below for more detailed instructions
     
    = NOTE: You MUST have the Bunyap Weapons & Guns Pak of 6/06 for the proper WW2 weapons and guns!! =
    Although, I HAVE included my GunData.ini and GunData.dat files. These have all the proper WW2 guns and such.
     
    Be advised, one of the objects I've added is the Nazi Flag. If you live in a country that prohibits it's exhibition, you may wish to delete the "3RFlag" bits.
     
    PLEASE read the enclosed readme for full, detailed, step-by-step install directions. This complies with MOD Directive of June, 1941 #1058, but is NOT coverd by the Official Secrets Act.
     
    Good Hunting!

  19. Major Lee's DBS Bering Straits Terrain

    This is Major Lee's Bering Straits terrain that was posted at his site before it went down. People have been asking me for this terrain. So I've decided to post it for everyone to have fun with. Any of the terrain.cat files from SFP1, WOV, WOE or WOI seem to work equally well, though the terrain was originally set up for Strike Fighters. You'll either have to add that cat file into the terrain folder or point to it in the terrain's ini file.

  20. Major Lee's America Northwest Terrain

    This is Major Lee's America Northwest Terrain mod, slightly edited. I have included my SAM site mod to it, and fixed the sticky runway problem at Elk airfield. I'm posting this at CombatAce because Major Lee's site is down and have been receiving a lot of requests from people to provide it. I've set the zip file up so installation should be a very simple process. This mod was originally done for Strike Fighters, but will work with the WOV, WOE and WOI cat file as well. I've set this up to be a new terrain, seperate from Lee's other versions, so you can have all of them in your terrain folder at once. This is Major Lee's work, please don't credit me with any of it.
     
     
    Major Lee's Aerodrome
    20JULY2003
     
    American Northwest training and development map (500 km x 500km).
     
    TO INSTALL THE FILES: (Edited by Doghouse) (Back up any files you don't want to change permanently)
     
    1: Extract the zip file. The appropriate terrain folder will be created.
    2: If using Strike Fighters: Copy/Paste "desert.cat" from the Desert folder into the AmericaNW folder and rename "desert.cat" to "AmericaNW.cat".
    If using Wings Over Vietnam: Copy/Paste "VietnamSEA.cat" from the VietnamSEA folder into the AmericaNW folder and rename "VietnamSEA.cat" to "AmericaNW.cat".
    If using Wings Over Europe: Copy/Paste "GermanyCE.cat" from the GermanyCE folder into the AmericaNW folder and rename "GermanyCE.cat" to "AmericaNW.cat".
    If using Wings Over Israel; Copy/Paste "IsraelME.cat" from the IsrealME folder into the AmericaNW folder and rename "IsraelME.cat" to "AmericaNW.cat".
    3: Place that folder in your game's Terrain folder. You should be good to go.
     
    TO USE IN-GAME:
    Select Single Mission, "Create Mission" then under the Mission Map drop down list under section I, select "Amercian Northwest".
     
    ERRATA:
    There is no water, so don't select anti-ship missions.
     
    There is no campaign; I welcome anyone who wants to please write one!
     
    AI may have issues with the terrain at times.
     
    You might have issues with the terrain too, especially if you select Inclement weather option...
     
    This is a map meant that is meant to be somewhere fun to fly. It is also meant to be useful for prosepective modders to learn to write INIs and place objects.
     
    If you develop an interesting INI for this map, please send it to me and I will post it at the Aerodrome for all to enjoy.
     
    Please do not post this set at other websites.
     
     
    Enjoy, Major Lee.

  23. Libya Upgrade, Targets Hot-Fix

    Targets Fix for Libya Map ver.2.0
     
    This little fix will remove Gamal Abel Nassar AB from the targets ini, as it's been reported that it was too close to "The Wall", that 80km limit on the map edge. It's been replaced by a 'Military District HQ' at Benghazi (ie: another vehicle depot).
     
    Included are 3 new versions of the planning maps, with GAN AB removed. NO OTHER CHANGES HAVE BEEN EFFECTED!!!! All other inis remain fully functional.
    This package ONLY includes a new targets, cities ini, and the 3 maps.
     
    See enclosed readme for super-easy install instructions (for a change!!!)
     
    Enjoy!

  24. Major Lee's American Northwest Jungle terrain

    Here is Major Lee's ANW green terrain. I've set this up to be a stand alone terrain also. To install, unzip the file and copy a terrain.cat file into the newly created ANWgreen folder, renaming the cat file to ANWgreen.cat. Then place the ANWgreen folder in your Terrain folder. You should be good to go. Again, please don't credit me with any of this, the terrain is ALL Major Lee's work.
     
    I've been having problems uploading files to CombatAce for some reason, they keep crapping out on my. If you don't see a screenshot with my uploads, that's a good indication it's a bad upload. Hopefully CA will get this problem figured out, in the meantime I'll keep trying to get them posted.
