SF2 Carrier and Campaign Mod Readme

 

This mod adds a carrier to the stock SF2 campaigns, as well as places USN and some of the USMC squadrons in those campaigns on the carrier. Additionally, if you have a merged install with SF2V, SF2E, and SF2NA, you can add F-8's and A-7's to the stock campaigns and a new 1978 campaign with A-7's, F-15's, HarrierGR3's, F-14's, and A-10's as well.

 

Requirements:

SF2 and SF2V (for the carriers) are required. SF2E and SF2NA are optional but recommended.

 

 

To install:

 

1. Drag the "campaigns" folder into your mod folder.

 

2. If you already have modified desert_targets.ini in your SF2/Terrains/Desert folder, skip to the next step. If you do not already have modified desert_targets.ini, extract Desert.ini and Desert_targets.ini from Desert.CAT (in the main game folder) using the SF2 .cat extractor. Create a 'Terrains' folder in your SF2 mod foler and create a 'Desert' folder inside that one. Place the extracted Desert.ini and Desert_targets.ini in that folder.

 

3. Add the following to the bottom of desert_targets.ini:

 

[TargetAreaXXX]

Name=Whiskey Station

Position=550000,600000

Radius=5657

ActiveYear=0

Location=3

Alignment=FRIENDLY

CarrierStation=TRUE

 

Make sure 'XXX' in the [TargetAreaXXX] is the next number following the target area above where you pasted the entry.

 

 

4. That's it!

Not easy at all to install (it was difficult for me to use de CAT tool to extract desert.ini and so), but it has been worth the effort, though the carrier and carrier group should be improved.

 

Thank you very much.

I got only SF2 Europe installed.

I put, as you say at #1 the "object" folder in my SF2 Europe mod folder, adding then F-14A, but when I start a mission F14 take off from runway, not from the carrier.

why?

This addon needs Strike Fighters 2 (the first title in the series with the desert map). It won't work with SF2E
