Terrain Renaming Question

[+allenjb42 4,237]

My mind has gone blank and for the life of me I can't find the answer in the KB for either SF1 or SF2.

 

I want to rename the IsraelME folder in my SF2 install as this is a detailed terrain and quite memory intensive so I also want the standard IsraelME terrain available for when I haven't got time to wait for the detailed terrain to load.

 

I renamed the folder to IsraelMEDL and also have an IsraelMEDL.ini, and IsraelMEDL.HFD and IsraelMEDL.TFD but when I ran a mission to test the terrain all of the airfields have disappeared and I'm taking off from a discoloured grass field.

 

What have I done wrong and how can I fix it?

in IsraelMEDL.ini, did you add the following:

 

 

CatFile=..\IsraelME\IsraelME.CAT

 

??

 

Eventually, you can also rename target.ini, types.ini, any critical ini file...then it should work.

The CatFile pointer has sorted the problem! Thanks so much.
