Inflight map not showing Red forces

Recommended Posts

I just updated my WOV2 with all the Vietnam upgrades available, but for some reason while in the mission if I open the map it only shows Blue  (friendly) forces.  My SF2 works fine and i chacked to insure all of my setings are the same.  I also opened both .inis and made surte they are the same still no red forces.  Its not cheating the game in real life there are agencies briefing you on enemy forces.  I just like to see where they are for planning purposes.  The map works fine in SF2 and WOE, but they did not get the Vietnam upgrades.  I'm hoping it is a simple adjustment to get them back.  As I was in Vietnam at TuyHoa from July 67 to July 68, and Danang for the Easter Offensive I like reliving the action.

 

Thanks

Hello to you sir

 

What is displayed on the in game map is controlled mainly by HUDDATA.ini which if you have extracted or added with a mod will be in the flight folder here:

 

C:\Users\<YOU>\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Vietnam\Flight

 

In it you will find (assuming you haven't stuck an old version in: 

 

 
[MapLabels]
EnableLabels=FALSE   <---------------make TRUE
LabelFriendlyAir=TRUE
LabelFriendlyGround=FALSE
LabelEnemyAir=FALSE        <--------- make TRUE
LabelEnemyGround=FALSE   <----------- make TRUE

 

 

 

You can also remove them by adding ENEMYAIRCAFTICON.tga to the Menu folder.

 

So check out if you have those files.
