As im editing Piecemeals updated stock campaigns for the Desert3 terrain, ive ran into some problems/questions...

 

Ive changed the burning sands campaign to start in 1953, everything good so far...then i wanted to make a copy of this campaign where the Mercs fly for Paran, pretty easy one might think...just change airplane, forceid and base entries, but when i tested it, i end up on another airfield and more severe my unit isnt seen as a merc unit at all anymore, no funds are shown, you dont earn anything, exactly like you fly for a Nation?!?

 

Here copies of the *ini entries for my merc unit:

 

[MercUnit001]

UnitName=1st Special Ops Wing

ForceID=2

UnitID=8

StartDate=01/01/1953

DescFile=MercDesc.txt

StartText=Campaign1StartMerc.txt

AircraftType=Mig-15bis

 

[AirUnit008]

AircraftType=Mig-15bis

UnitName=1st Special Operations Wing

ForceID=2

Nation=MERC

MercenaryUnit=TRUE

PlayerOnly=TRUE

StartingFunds=25000

DefaultTexture=Parani1

BaseArea=P4 Airfield

RandomChance=100

MissionRate=1.0

MaxAircraft=16

StartAircraft=8

MaxPilots=16

StartPilots=16

Experience=100

Morale=100

Supply=60

MissionChance[sWEEP]=90

MissionChance[CAP]=90

MissionChance[iNTERCEPT]=90

MissionChance[ESCORT]=90

MissionChance=90

MissionChance[CAS]=90

MissionChance[sEAD]=90

MissionChance[ARMED_RECON]=90

MissionChance[ANTI_SHIP]=90

MissionChance[RECON]=90

Im really at a loss here, and i begin to believe you cannot fly as a merc for any enemy force at all???

 

Maybe its a problem with the desert3 terrain? 2 weeks ago i did the same thing with stock desert terrain and there it worked?!

Ah well, didnt thought about that....i guess i need to make another merc-nation then, because my plan was to be able to fly as merc for both sides!

 

Thx Hans!
