Recommended Posts

Okay all you need to do is make sure you have a clean install of SFG and then drop and drag the folders across...

 

Be aware though that the Falklands mod was designed back in 06 for the 06 patch... so some of the flight models may be... how should I say this... Interesting to say the least.

 

One of the best mods you can get is NATO IV from Column 5 or the Operation Desert Storm mod from here...

 

Hope it helps

Moved to a more correct Forum. PLEASE!!!! Do NOT post question in the Knowledge Base! It's for answers only.

 

----------------

 

The Falklands Mod was designed for 06 patch level SF/SFG only. It can, with a great amount of work (mostly to all the flight models of ALL the aircraft --expecially the helos), be made to work in 08 level installs.

 

It's designed for a 'stand alone' install. Meaning: NOTHING but the Falkslands objects (terrain, effects, weapons, aircraft, ships, vehicles, etc) in the game install. Of course, KEEP the desert terrain folder, as that's what is referenced for terrainobjects in the Falklands map.

 

Instructions for building a 'era specific' install are in the KB above. Follow the instructions in the Falklands

War readme TO THE LETTER!

 

Before doing ANY kind of modding, I'd seriously reccomend

1) playing the game "as is" to get familiar with the game system, folder structures, etc. And

2) Read all the thread and posts in the Knowledge Base to get a feel for 'how' the game system works.

 

Then, start asking questions
