This question came first in a MIG-25 topic and as it was a bit off topic I made a Tu-22 topic.

 

So my problem concerns the Tu-22. It does not go to hangar until I change MinBaseSize=MEDIUM from it's previous LONG value. But the trouble is just after this. After that it starts loading the mission and then crashes the game at ~70% load complete. Why!?

 

I have WOV pack 3 and the latest weapons mod

 

Sidewinder86 had some suggestions here:

Do you have the Lod's and such for the aircraft?

 

TU-22 is from SFP1... you need to copy over the lods and other files you need to fly it.

"

 

 

This might be it. However I am new around the stick here so I'm not sure what this LOD is all about. I've seen some LOD's in the tu22.ini file. They are some files and I see LODs in the folders of other addon aircrafts. I do not know however where to get LODs for Tu-22.And my guess they are related to the shape of the plane.

 

Caesar, thanks for the info too! I've made some progress with some added planes whith which i could not select a mission type. However it did not help with the Tu22. I can select now strike mission. Even before when no mission type was selectable I could hit the Fly! button in the hangar after selecting the payload but loading crashed the game at about 70%. So it's something just before the mission initialization/start.

 

Well I'm still into this investigation. Just for fun I have copied some LODs from a MIG-23 and renamed them to see what is happening. The game actually started this time and I could see the cockpit but the outside view was a surprise... the plane was invisible (to the eye - the enemy missiles were homing on me). So I guess this is indeed the solution : get the right Tu-22 LOD's.

 

The only problem is: where to get them!?

 

Thanks in advance for any kind of help.

Oh, and by the way if I have to work a bit for this, I'm willing to :spiteful:

You have to get them from the objectdata.cat in SFP1.

 

So...

you need to have a copy of SFP1

you need the cat file extractor

 

Search the forums here for a link to the extractor...

Search the local bargin bins or circuitcity.com for SFP1...$5 online pick it up at the local store.

There's four a/c in SFP1 that aren't in WOV :

 

F-104G

C-130A

An-12

Tu-22

 

You can get SFP1 from Circuit City for around $5 in the US & Canada. In the EU, look for SF:Gold.

 

The SFP1E cat file extractor is availible for DL both here and at Check-Six...
