Want to share an amazing discovery

Guys, while playing with SFV2 I notice this disturbing "bug". Inside the folders of some USN planes (like F-4B for example) there are also some USMC version. So good so far. BUT, as most of USMC planes were land based, when I select a USMC version to fly the plane starts from a Aircraft Carrier, once inside the "F-4B_DATA.INI" is a line to set this - "CarrierBased=TRUE" that applies to all. How to solve it? Simple!!!! On the game´s main directory (the modders one) go to the Flight archives and find the NATIONS.INI. Find the USMC and add this line then safe. Presto! Now the USMC planes works on land bases. Keep in mind that some small USMC Phantoms squadrons operated inside Aircraft Carries, so check wich version you want to fly. Cheers!!

But then you don't get USMC Harriers and helicopters operating from the assault ships.

Unless you made a second USMC nation, maybe called USMC-H, that was CarrierBased=TRUE and assigned those aircraft to that nation?

You´re right. Actually I created a new USMC setting for Carrier base. As I said, it fits well for Vietnam scenario.
