No runway, no buildings

[Guest pdelbarba]

Whenever i install a new terrain in WOV there are no runways or nuttin. All the planes are ontop of each other so i cant set 'collision' to hard. I only get working bases when i install Korat into DVR. Please dont give me any !@#$ about this being the 500,000,000,000th post about this and besides, all the others make no sense. I WANT RUNWAYS!!

It won't work. I RUN WOV ONLY and i said no !@#$!!!

 

The next time you display this kind of attitude when someone takes the time to assist you, don't be surprised if you find yourself on the outside looking in.

In the terrain folder for any add-on terrain there is an .ini file named after that terrain. For example, in Deuces Euro terrain, it's named (appropriately enough) :"Deuces.ini". In that *.ini file, there is a line that directs the game where to look for the terrain cat file, or catalog file. It should look something like so: CatFile=..\Desert\Desert.cat

 

In the case of WoV, you must edit this, as any third-party add-on terrains were most likely created for use in Strike Fighters. In WoV, there is no Desert.cat, but there is a VietnamSEA.cat file, that serves the same function. And that is to provide a neat, tidy place for the developer to place the files for, buildings, runways, oil tanks (etc.). All you need to do is edit that line on any add-on terrain .ini files to read: CatFile=..\VietnamSEA\VietnamSEA.cat

 

And thats all there is to it.

Sry, its just that Ive spent too many hours trying to figure out what is going on and truthefully having no runways is kinda annoying

Well fubar has told you every way to do it, if those arent working then it is a problem on your end. Either a bad D/L, didnt understand his instructions, something.
