I've read somewhere here in the forums that it could be fixed by changing the tag value of the tile in Gerwin's TFDtool. I never tried though and most probably it's the HFD that needs some work, as Wrench said. Anyway, what airfield is that? I might give it a try.

there are several airfields in Desert 4 that need flattening

i had to flatten about several airfields and i had to move D9 (I think) to another location as the flattening didn't even work, probably a tiling problem...

I managed to completely solve that problem before with all of the airbases in mountainous regions without having to move them. I think it was done via some INI file editing for the tiles in question. Unfortunately I lost EVERYTHING on my desktop when it was fried in a power surge some months back. This tiles issue is a pain in the arse but it is fixable with only minor adjustments.

 

Sorry I can't be of more help to you guys.

The problem is with the first code lines of the Terrain_DATA.ini

 

Use this lines and give it a try. It should work

Unfortunately, there is no result

try changing the cat pointer line to GermanyCE, and download any of my recent terrains. Inside them, you'll find the necessary airfield inis.

 

Desert_Airfield1.ini

Desert_Airfield2.ini

Desert_Airfield3.ini

Desert_Airfield4.ini

Desert_Airfield5.ini

Desert_Airfield6.ini

 

copy and  paste them into the desert4 terrain folder. that should do it.

 

if not,  do the really smart thing, and buy SF2 (no suffix) from 3rd Wire. 75% of all terrains reference the Desert.cat. It is VITAL to have it.

 

This is because, after on the 2011 or 12 patches, the desert airfield inis were removed form all but the desert cat

Have you got installed Strike Fighters 2?

You need Strike Fighters 2 for the desert.cat.

Success!!!!! This file solved problem!
