GalmOne Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 This is looking great but each time I install this, my plane is invisible in both the hangar and the game. When I actually start the game, I only get a HUD and no plane, and the game cannot be unpaused :( Quote
Stick Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 You have probably inadvertently deleted something. Quote
GalmOne Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 (edited) I guess I did by merging the folders? I installed it like any other mod. I put it into my StrikeFighters2Vietnam mods directory and merged folders accordingly. Then I tried it again in my StrikeFighters2Europe mod folder which has NO other mods in it. I still had the same error. I forgot to mention that all my missiles are there but the other Hornets, as well as mine are still invisible. Edited February 17, 2013 by GalmOne Quote
slick cowboy Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 small bug... when I load an AGM-88 HARM i get a black pylon... something's missing... or am i missing an update? Quote
Svetlin Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 No, you have come accross an old skin, that does not have the Harm adapters painted on. Quote
slick cowboy Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 ok, i'll have a look in my weapons folder then maybe i forgot to paste something, thx Quote
+EricJ Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 It's not something in the weapons folder, the HARM adapter is part of the aircraft skin itself: The area inside the red rectangle are the HARM adapter textures I use. Quote
slick cowboy Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 okido strange... i'll re-download everything to be sure Quote
+SupGen Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 A lot of the skins in the original release were missing the texture. Open the skin in Gimp and plop some grey in there; it works. Quote
+76.IAP-Blackbird Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 Maybe you guys can help me, since this pack was released I couldnt fly those planes. I have a full merged up to date install and have no problems with the NA machines. The game stops loading and aboart the loading procedure. Never saw them flying ingame. Quote
+Brain32 Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 Hmm that's mighty strange, although it's hard for me to help as I have pretty much custom version of the mod since working on it but I'll give my best so I need to ask a few questions: 1. Does it happen with all variants? 2. All skins? 3. Tried switching terrains? (99% of my game crashes are due to my terrain tweaking) 4. Perhaps certain mission profiles(CAP,CAS,Strike,Recon etc.) I remember I had some issues with that during beta time. Quote
+76.IAP-Blackbird Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 I have tried the B,C and D and all ended up with a abrupt loading screen. I have also some troublesome terrains, but the change doesnt made a difference in the result. I have tried Desert, Israel, Germany and many other, just to see how it works. Is there something that needs definatly Win7 or to be run with the NA.exe? I can run all planes so far with the normal SF2.exe and use XP so far. I`m a bit out ideas in that case Quote
+Brain32 Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 Hmm there really should not be anything but then again I did always ran it on a fully merged install. Perhaps the carrier parking entires? It's in the data.ini under [MissionData] like this: CarrierBased=TRUE CarrierParkSpan=7.97 CarrierParkAnimationID=7 Try commenting them out as that is NA feature although it would be pretty weird if that was the case... Quote
+76.IAP-Blackbird Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 Good news, seems those files were the one my system doesnt want to load when you using SF2.exe on a XP system. The CarrierBased=TRUE works fine, the rest doesnt. The Bad thing is, the birds looks ugly under XP, the canopy is barely visible and the whole plane looks like a plastic kit. I think it`s time to upgrade to 7. ... unfortunatly Quote
slick cowboy Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 i re-downloaded everything (i.e. both zips) and noticed that the decals are missing from the spanish, canadian and kuwaiti horners... luckily i still had the older cf-18 decals, which i think are the same... Quote

Yeah, most if not all can be adapted; I'm doing that myself. Quote
+EricJ Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 Here's teh decals for the Kuwaiti jets, just drop in your Objects/Decals/FA-18C folder. FA-18C.7z Quote
+SupGen Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 You know, I think I'm losing my mind, but I completely forget about this thread: http://combatace.com/topic/77999-new-hornet-skins/ . Oh well. Quote
clanitho Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Well the first thing I checked was to compare the rudder section in the data.ini's between the CF-18 and the Blue Angel.........but they seem identical. I will look further and will post if I find anything. Hi Romflyer, do you find anything about rudder's problem ? Quote
