Terrain Files not all there

[warthog64 81]

I noticed that the stock terrains in WOE/WOV don't have a movement.ini file in them which allows editing of routes, I downloaded the Libya terrain and found that it had many files including the movement.ini. So are stock terrains not editable, or does anyone know how to get the movement.ini file for Germany/Vietnam Thanks

Did you check the respective X_terrain.cat files for those two titles? That's where you'll find the movement.ini files.

No stock terrain has the files floating around in the folder; you'll only find the main ini and X_terrain cat file.

 

Like Ed said, they're stored inside the cat file...that's what's for. Think of it like the Windoze cab files; an easily accessable archive, designed to save space.

 

A little further exploration will show that NONE of the stock objects (aircraft, ships, vehicles, etc) have any of their various inis in their folders as well

 

You just use the handy dandy extractor tool to pull them out, make whatever edits are wanted, and leave them in the folder.

The game engine looks into seperate, individual folders first, then into the varying cat files. Which is one reason you can have multiple inis, say an F-4E data ini, with only a NationName= change, and create a nation specific aircraft.
