Dong Hoi mission

[greyhawk]

When I change the AC type in the Dong Hoi mission I still get the a7 and f8 cockpit, can you tell me why? The only thing i changes was the AircraftType=FA-18C

What date does the mission take place?

[greyhawk]

1968 and i have used from 1968 to 1998 with no luck

You have to change the aircraft type in the flight definition as well as the mission. The first entry you find is for descriptive purposes. Find the player's flight and edit the aircraft type in that flight to change what you are actually going to fly.

Is it safe to assume this is SF2:V?? If so, you might have to extract the VietnamSEA.ini, and change the year spread (now called AllowedDates) for the terrain, as all the NextGens now have that statement built into the TERRAIN, as opposed to the SingleMission.ini in SF/Wo*s

(this is from the VnSEA targets enhancement package, hence the "NorthVietnam" terrain name)
