Adding ground object in SF1

[winson]

Hi,

 

Anybody can point me to the right direction on how to add a ground object like armor vehicle or ship to my SF1 WOV?

 

I had tried to search this forum, i found how to add an aircraft, add weapons but i can't find the instruction for adding ground object. Anyone can help me?

 

Thanks

unzip to a temp folder or your desktop, read the enclosed read me for install instructions.

 

usually, just drag and drop (or cut/paste) the new vehicles/ship/ground unit into the /GroundObject folder.

 

IF the item was created pre-08 patch (and not yet updated), the main ini will need some editing as per this thread:

Thanks for help. I just able to add ground objects. It is fun!

 

By the way, i had also added a warship to my WOV, but how can i make the warship appear in the anti-ship single mission so that i can shoot at the warship instead of shooting cargo ship?

warships don't show in anti-shipping missions, because they're warships. Only vessals classed as CARGO_SHIP are valid targets.

 

Of course, in SF2, with SF2NA, they ARE valid targets (but only in CVBGs). Another reason to move up!

Keep your original warship folder file as is in case they are used in campaign etc as WARSHIPS. Lets say warship is "Destroyer"

 

 

To get it to appear in anti-ship mission do the following:

 

 

Copy Destroyer folder and rename to Destroyer_2 (for example)

 

In the new folder find the file Destroyer.ini and rename it to Destroyer_2.ini

 

In the new folder find the file Destroyer_data.ini and edit it as follows:

 

Find line new top that says: GroundObjectRole=WARSHIP

 

change this to read: GroundObjectRole=CARGO_SHIP

 

 

 

You will now have 2 destroyer models. One a WARSHIP and one a CARGO_SHIP

 

The CARGO_SHIP version will now be selected randomly for anti-ship missions.

The ship finally appeared on the sea!

If i want to make a vehicle like russian BMP to appear in armed reconnaissance missions, what is the GroundObjectRole i should specify?

Now i only can shoot at trucks in armed recon mission.

"TRANSPORT"

 

or download the other avialable trucks .. should be some GAZ around...

Hi Wrench, thanks for the tip. It works nicely.

I had tried BTR for armed recon mission also, it is totally not a good idea as a lot of BTRs from the convoy open up their AA gunfire on me, and i got shot down immediately. I was like .
