SF2V Air and Ground war expansion help 2

[eldaridat22]

This is a continuation of my previous post "SF2V Air & Ground war expansion help" ive managed to get the campaigns available and working, but I haven't managed to get flyable B-52s. They seem to be flyable, having a cockpit .ini file and stuff, but I can't find them in single mission or campaign. Can anyone assist me in this matter? Thank you in advance. I'm sorry if I seem like an idiot, but please help.

You edited the Campaigns to include the B-52´s in order to fly them?

I have to do that? They don't appear in single mission either.

Agree that you should not have to muck with campaign settings to fly single missions................

Can you see any of the other add-on aircraft from the mod? C-130, A-6, etc.?

Try looking into your aircraft folder under ur objects/Aircraft that is where you would find the B-52

[daddyairplanes]

check if the B-52s in that install have cockpits

many mega installs (like this or ODS30AE) leave the large aircraft (including the B-52) non flyable by removing the cockpit. they are still available in teh campaign to escort or intercept, just not for you to fly

[DoctorQuest]

Yeah. I just installed the mod and I am not seeing cockpit files for any of the B-52 models. 

I do see a bunch of other flyable aircraft. I think daddyairplanes nailed it. The modders may just have decided to leave the B-52s as AI only. 

I have not made the effort myself but you could certainly poke around the various B-52 downloads. I think someone made a stand-in B-52 cockpit to at least make it flyable.

Try downloading this BUFF and copying its cockpit over................ 

I have not tried it myself yet. Good luck!

[Wrench]

Not reccommened to the fly the bombers ... they cause all sorts of issues with the game engine itself. Just ask the (few remaining) WW2 players. Not only will you NOT get the proper formations, there's no bombsight (52s used radar only - I had a cousin who's job that wes), and giving orders to wingmates will crash the game.

Leave as issued; it's always done for a reason

[daddyairplanes]

IF youre gonna load a pit however..... 

use one of the ones from my B-52D Pacer Plank or B-52F mods

no EVS screens or other Modern cockpit toys like the suggested mod above

and mine are set for the TW stock B-52 airframe, while the modern ones are set for wpnssgt's third part models.

I will step away. Just trying to help. I would go with the advice from Wrench.

This explains a LOT.

didnt mean to crap on your advice, going with a known working pit is solid. was just pointing out that there are pits for that era of BUFF

i point to mine because i dont remember exactly where they came from, and my works generaly have pits. unless removed like they were for ODS30AE

it was one of the first personal changes i made, adding the pits back in for single missions

Okay guys, I appreciate the help. I'm at school right now. I'll do something about it when I'm home.

No worries, bro. I got ahead of myself and stumbled a bit. All good.

De acuerdo. Seré más amable que el otro usuario y te haré notar que, si yo puedo usar el Traductor de Google, tú también puedes. Existen foros en español, pero la mayor parte de la actividad aquí se lleva a cabo en inglés.

-----------------------------------------

Agreed.
I'll be nicer than the other guy, and point out if i can use Google translate so can you. There are Spanish forums, but most business here is in English

[Flanker562]

Okay I got clarification in the Staff Forum, but it's okay for people to use Spanish and other languages because there is Google translate and so on, so it's okay if people post a foreign language on forum topics, anywhere.

[DoctorQuest]

Well, we are a world wide organization after all. And that's not a bad thing. 

Qapla'!
