Guest grayraven Posted February 21, 2005 I just did a test extract of the A6 to a test folder, then extracted the cockpit zip, Check to see if the cockpit folder is inside the A6 folder. When I did the test The cockpit folder was placed "Outside" of the A6 folder thus the AC won't show up in the listing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy Brandt 0 Posted February 22, 2005 no its realy in there. i have named the folder 0bjects/Aircraft/A-6A then all the stuff in it, and also a folder which i made called cockpit with all cockpit stuff in it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest grayraven Posted February 23, 2005 (edited) Try editing the A6 ini to this [AircraftData] AircraftFullName=A-6A Intruder Also check the CockpitData.ini, Should look like this: [CockpitSeat001] ModelName=A6cockpit Position=-0.35,2.55,0.74 ViewAngles=0.0,-2.0,0.0 Edited February 23, 2005 by grayraven Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy Brandt 0 Posted February 23, 2005 ive done that, still no intruder . please help!!!!!!!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest grayraven Posted February 24, 2005 Check the A-6A.ini it should be the same as this: [AircraftData] AircraftFullName=A-6A Intruder AircraftDataFile=A-6A_DATA.ini CockpitDataFile=A-6A_COCKPIT.INI HangarScreen=A-6A_HANGAR.BMP LoadoutImage=A-6A_LOADOUT.BMP LoadoutFile=A-6A_LOADOUT.INI AvionicsDLL=Avionics60.dll AvionicsDataFilename=A-6A_AVIONICS.ini If you renamed all the files and the A-6A folder is in the /Objects/Aircraft folder (with the cockpit folder in the A-6A folder and the cockpit data entry changed that I posted befor) , then their has to be something "misspelled" somewere.

Andy Brandt 0 Posted February 25, 2005 WHERE IS THE COCKPIDDATA.INI, ITS NOT THERE, I HAVE A a-6A_COCKPIT, AND A-6A.INI AND A-6A_DATA , PLUS A FEW LOADOUT 1NS, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest grayraven Posted February 26, 2005 There should be only 1 Loadout.ini, Check to see if the cockpit.ini got renamed by mistake. If you have a file named "A-6A_LOADOUT(1).INI" Open it with Notepad and see if it is the cockpit file. If you have more then one file selected when you Rename a file windows will add (1) to the 2nd file . I found this out the hard way,"Drove me NUTS", If it is the cockpit file then Rename it A-6A_COCKPIT.INI If that not the case then just extract it from the zip.

Cylix=JW= 0 Posted February 28, 2005 Hello, This should fix your problem, broke down into steps.. 1. Unzip the A-6 A folder. 2. Copy the A-6 A Folder to your Strike Fighters/Objects/Aircraft folder 3. Once its in your aircraft folder, rename the A-6 A folder to A-6A 4. Make sure each of these matchs up to those in the A-6A Folder Here is my Aricraft Data, I had to rename some of the inis to match. [AircraftData] AircraftFullName=A-6A Intruder AircraftDataFile=A-6A_DATA.ini CockpitDataFile=A-6A_COCKPIT.INI HangarScreen=A-6A_HANGAR.BMP LoadoutImage=A-6A_LOADOUT.BMP LoadoutFile=A-6A_LOADOUT.INI AvionicsDLL=Avionics60.dll AvionicsDataFilename=A-6A_AVIONICS.ini So if the A-6A_COCKPIT.ini reads A-6 A_COCKPIT.ini rename it to A-6A_COCKPIT.ini Monty had to name it A-6 A with a space because WOV already has an A-6A, but in Strike Fighters there is no stock A-6A, so there is no need for the Space. Hope this makes sense. Cylix=JW= Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
