CAT files nobody will send you. It would be file piracy.

But this is easy to cure.

Open the ini file of the terrain for instance angola.ini

Look for a line which looks like these:

CatFile=..\GermanyCE\GermanyCE.cat

 

The next step depends what version of SF2 you has.

 

replace it with

CatFile=..\VietnamSEA\VietnamSEA.cat (if you has SF2 Vietnam)

or

CatFile=..\IsraelME\IsraelME.cat (if you has SF2 Israel)

or

CatFile=..\IcelandNA\IcelandNA.cat (if you has SF2 North Atlantic)

 

should work.

as I explained in the PM reply to you, there is no such thing as terrain cats for those 2 terrains...

As Gepart has said, if you open the Coastal Range.ini, you'll see the line I've highlighted here:

Quote

[Terrain]
TerrainFullName=Coastal Range
DataFile=Coastal Range_data.INI
TargetFile=Coastal Range_targets.INI
TargetTypeFile=Coastal Range_types.INI
MovementFile=Coastal Range_movement.INI
NationsFile=Coastal Range_nations.INI
BriefingText=Coastal Range_briefing.INI
DogfightFile=Coastal Range_dogfight.INI
WaterMap=Coastal Range_WATER.bmp
CatFile=..\GermanyCE\GermanyCE.cat         <----this one
DogfightOnly=FALSE
Longitude=30
Latitude=10
LimitedNations=TRUE
GroundObjectTexture=green

The same is true for the Angola.ini ----

Quote

[Terrain]
TerrainFullName=Angola V2.0
DataFile=Angola_v1_DATA.INI
TargetFile=Angola_v1_TARGETS.INI
TargetTypeFile=Angola_v1_TYPES.INI
MovementFile=Angola_v1_MOVEMENT.INI
NationsFile=Angola_v1_NATIONS.INI
BriefingText=Angola_v1_BRIEFING.INI
DogfightFile=Angola_v1_DOGFIGHT.INI
DogfightOnly=FALSE
CatFile=..\Desert\Desert.CAT          <---- this one
LimitedNations=TRUE
GroundObjectTexture=TAN
NavalMap=FALSE
WaterMap=Angola_v1_Water1.bmp

 So, what's required to make them work are having the stock SF2 Desert.cat, the SF2E GermanyCE cat. None of the other terrains (VietnamSEA), especially IsraelME and IcelandNA most likely would not have all the proper "terrain objects" built in to have all the items show up.

So, in short, you need GermanyCE.cat and Desert.cat. Only available from SF2 and SF2:Europe
