harryleith Posted December 8, 2010 Posted December 8, 2010 I was an early adopter of Expansion pack2 and I seem to have developed an odd problem. Some of the later third party aircraft now do not have a service date range. They are available for the since year noted in the ServiseStartYear attribute but ignore the ServiceEndYear value. This seems to affect more modern aircraft. For example my A-4G Skyhawk is fine, but my RAAF FA-18s aren't, only being available in 1984 or 2003. Bizarrely, my RAAF F-111 (early) has a date range, while the F-111C (Late) doesn't. They all worked fine before, and the same aircraft work fine in a non-expansion pack install. Has anyone else seen this or is it just me? Quote
+EricJ Posted December 8, 2010 Posted December 8, 2010 Open the Options.ini Scroll down to: [singleMission] And adjust EndYear to something like that below EndYear=2040 And you'll get your service dates working again. Quote
+Wrench Posted December 8, 2010 Posted December 8, 2010 Is this even in the right forum?? There is no Exp2 for 1stGen 3W games wrench kevin stein Quote
harryleith Posted December 9, 2010 Author Posted December 9, 2010 Thanks EricJ - changing the SingleMission end date from 0 to 2050 worked a treat and my aircraft are now all ship-shape and terrific again. You are, sir, a dead-set legend and I won't hear a word to the contrary! My date problem would appear not to be an Expansion pack 2 issue. It also wasn't a Gen 1 issue, so thanks to Wrench and Fast Cargo for moving it to the right place! My bad! I have been flying SF2 for exactly a year, and the forums and help on Combat Ace really provide valuable assistance. I appreciate all the effort you guys go to. Quote
