Custom campaign weapon supply/available store problem

Hello strikers! 

 

I am an enthusiastic campaign builder and i didn't have problems until this

 

I am creating a new campaign with "CubaOTC" terrain, setting a fictional war between Argentina, Chile and Peru

 

All works great (Data, squadrons, flayable planes, missions, etc) except one thing, weapon supplies

 

Tried without "Supply[001].WeaponType=....." and with it, but nothing happens, i used the "Supply[001].WeaponType=....." from the "Falklands" campaign for the Argentinean planes, and nothing again, in "available stores" screen, nothing appears and i dont have any weapons tu use (Empty)

 

This conflict is from 1985, so i dont think that is a date problem

 

 

 

[AirUnit019]
AircraftType=A-4Q
Squadron=3 Escuadrilla de caza y ataque
ForceID=2
Nation=Argentina
DefaultTexture=post-war
BaseArea=Ignacio Agramonte Int'l
StartDate=09/07/1985
BaseMoveChance=0
RandomChance=100
MaxAircraft=2
StartAircraft=2
MaxPilots=4
StartPilots=4
Experience=70
Intelligence=50
Morale=100
Supply=50
MissionChance[sWEEP]=30
MissionChance[CAP]=70
MissionChance[iNTERCEPT]=30
MissionChance[ESCORT]=10
MissionChance=40
MissionChance[CAS]=40
MissionChance[sEAD]=60
MissionChance[ARMED_RECON]=20
MissionChance[ANTI_SHIP]=10
MissionChance[RECON]=10
UpgradeType=NEVER
Supply[001].WeaponType=AR_LAU-3A
Supply[001].Quantity=80
Supply[002].WeaponType=AR_AIM-9J
Supply[002].Quantity=80
Supply[003].WeaponType=AR_Mk81
Supply[003].Quantity=320
Supply[004].WeaponType=AERO-3B
Supply[004].Quantity=80
Supply[005].WeaponType=Tank300_A4nf
Supply[005].Quantity=30
Supply[006].WeaponType=Tank300_A4Q
Supply[006].Quantity=80
 
This is what i have, but i dont see anything wrong

 

Someone knows about this?

 

Thanks!!!

The only campaign I've ever played with a limited weapon list is Operation Desert Storm; It might be worth looking at how the modders have set out the INIs for that. Do you have the LimitedSupplyList line of text in your Data INI?

 

[CampaignData]
StartDate=1/17/1991
StartTime=2:00
StartDateDeviation=0
EndDate=03/01/1991
RunCampaignBeforePlayerStart=FALSE
ForceWithInitiative=1
NavalCampaign=TRUE
SurpriseAttack=FALSE
MaxMissions=100
NormalMissionRate=3
NormalMissionRateDeviation=1
OffensiveMissionRate=1
OffensiveMissionRateDeviation=1
LimitedSupplyList=TRUE
StartScreen=DS.jpg
StartText=
CampaignBaseScreen=
CampaignEndWinScreen=DS_WIN.jpg
CampaignEndLoseScreen=DS_LOSE.jpg
CampaignEndStallScreen=DS_WIN.jpg
CampaignEndKIAScreen=DS_LOSE.jpg
CampaignEndWinText=DS_WIN.txt
CampaignEndLoseText=DS_LOSE.txt
CampaignEndStallText=DS_WIN.txt
CampaignEndKIAText=DS_LOSE.txt

 

 

It might also be worth checking the weapon resupply times (again copied from ODS):

 

[Force001]
Alignment=FRIENDLY
Nation=USAF
BaseArea=KKMC AB
// BaseArea=Coalition Regional HQ
AirOffensive[001].Primary=WEAPON_FACTORY
AirOffensive[001].Secondary=COMM_BUILDING,COMMAND_BUILDING

AirOffensive[010].Primary=ARMY_BASE,AMMO_STORAGE,FUEL_STORAGE,HANGAR
AirOffensive[010].Secondary=AIRCRAFT_FACTORY,WAREHOUSE
GroundOffensiveAllowed=TRUE
StartGroundOffensive=0
StartOffensiveDate=02/24/1991
StartInterdiction=5
Morale=100
Supply=90
NormalSupplyRate=80
OffensiveSupplyRate=5
DefensiveSupplyRate=5
SupplyForOffensive=50
AircraftReplacementTime=5
AircraftReplacement=80
GroundUnitReplacementTime=15
GroundUnitReplacement=100
RandomTransportType=ANY
WeaponResupplyTime=80
StartAirDefenseLevel=3
RulesOfEngagement=FALSE
AllowRandomAceCreation=FALSE
LimitTargetToActiveRunway=FALSE
MaxSecondaryStrikes=4

 

The aircraft supply list itself looks OK.

      Installing Mods in a different location
      By Panzerfan
      My C: Drive is quite full, and I had to uninstall SF2 because the mods just took up too much space.

      Now I wonder if there is a way to install mods in any other location but the C:/User-and so on?

      Putting weapons onto other aircraft
      By TheUnseenWalrus
      Hi, I would like to know if its possible to put Aim-7 sparrows onto the Israeli F-16A in the Israel DLC. By default, the answer is no, but I was wondering if it was possible by tweaking the game somehow.

      Some Weapon Folders don't show up
      By JamesWilson
      Hi everyone,
      I recently got into weapon modding and wanted to edit some missiles.
      I went for the Weapons Folder with the Weapons Editor, and some weapons were missing, even tho i can see them and equip them in-game.
      I wanted to edit the AA-2D Atoll for my Su-22M3, but there's no AA-2 folder inside Weapons folder, nor inside plane folder, even tho the missile is equippable and i can see it/use it in-game.
      Since there's no Atoll folder, i have no idea how is it possible for me to have it in-game, and even less i know on how am i supposed to edit it through Weapons Editor, since i can't select the folder.
      I thought it may be a sort of "built-in-game" missile and for this reason not showing in weapons folder (idk i just made an hypothesis).
      So i tried using the CAT Extractor, but seems like not working... no matter which CAT file i select, it says "error opening this .CAT file, no files can be extracted", how's that? How do i fix it? Am i doing something wrong?
      Thank you in advance for helping me fixing all these issues or helping me find what i'm doing wrong
