StrikeFighters2 backup files do not work

[Avrillav]

Hello.

I have re installed complete SF2 and updated it. After I copied all content StrikeFighters2 (I backed up before), addon planes are not showing up? I can only see stock planes. May someone tell me what to do?

[+russouk2004]

what you mean backed up ?...made mod folder ?...erm not sure what you mean...show your install...ie...where folders are etc...and where your options ini is pointing...also what a\c ?...

[+Wrench]

seriously, could you be LESS specific as to what exactly you're trying to say??

We can't help you if we don't understand what you're trying to do

Like Russouk2004 said his SF2 is pointing at the stock folder with the stock planes in it. He needs to change it so it points to the folder he created from his backup. At least that's how I decipher it.

I have backed up entire addons I have downloaded and used including planes, guns, weapons, all addons. After I copy them, I cannot see them in Strike Figthers 2. However, when I copied them in Strike Figthers 2 Europe they are working. I am really confused.

You have tried to delete the  files, options. ini and version .ini? of the backup

[+russouk2004]

post options ini ...(bottom section) and show us where the files you adding are going...take screen of folders

 

example...my installs are (mods)   (in Users\Saved games\ options.ini etc etc point to:......   E:\Strike Fighters\

below is my test install..just basics and no stock a\c etc...

so my options ini is thus...

[Mods]
ModsEnabled=TRUE
Directory=E:\Strike Fighters\SF\Test
Editors=StrikeFighters2

You ARE putting the "new" files into the correct mods folder, yes??

take a screen shot of your folder tree, and post it here

I have re-installed Windows and SF completely, so I will try today. I hope it will work.

Something like this happened to me...when I copied (backed up) my folders and copied them back onto a new computer...all the files were in RO mode. I had to select the top folder and remove the Read Only flag...then it worked fine. Good Luck.
