Anyone who has a SF2 ready M-42 Duster?? Need it for my NF4+ install. Friendly forces need some firepower. The soviets are laughing at the AA defences ( only seen M-55 quad .50 cal so far). would be nice to have a single 40mm bofors to.

Mine's been working in SF2 since day one!!! (I'd also reccomend the US_90mmAA -the latest has built in radar-, the Bofors gun and TMFs Chapparels)

 

It's like any other "vehicle" (ok, in this case MOBILE_AAA), just drop it into the GroundObjects folder.

 

What problem are you having with it???

First, make sure the M-42.ini is updated to 'generic' 08 levels, with the additional lines:

 

this is mine:

 

[GroundObjectData]

ObjectFullName=M-42 Duster

ObjectDataFile=M-42_DATA.INI

 

[LOD001]

Filename=M-42.lod

Distance=2000

 

[shadow]

CastShadow=TRUE

ShadowCastDist=500

MaxVisibleDistance=500

 

I tweeked to add a shadow.

 

since it uses a farily standard gun, 40mm_L60, that should exist in even stock Gundata.ini (well, 1st Gen anyway), that shouldn't cause any problems

 

I also modded the years:

 

[MissionData]

NationName=USMC

ServiceStartYear=1943

ServiceEndYear=1980

GroundObjectRole=MOBILE_AAA

Availability=COMMON

Exported=TRUE

ExportStartYear=1958

ExportAvailability=COMMON

 

see if that helps some!

check my ww2 north africa upgrade; it should be in there, as well as Gepards Midway and maybe in his Battle of Britan terrains.

 

If not, I'll PM it to you, if you want
