The Range

[silverfox 0]

Tried to install the target range into SFG but does not appear to work or show up in the sim. I pointed it to where my sim is installed[ D:\Program Files\ThirdWire\SFG\Terrain|Range. Copied the Desert Security Catologue to the Range folder and renamed it. Opened up the sim and could not trace it. Any ideas to what I have done wrong please.

"I pointed it to where my sim is installed"?

 

In your terrain folder you should have Desert and Range. When you go into your range folder you should see a range.ini. That folder has to be named the same as that ini. Same thing when you copy the CAT file over but there is no need to do that either.

 

add:CatFile=..\Desert\Desert.cat to your range.ini.

 

E.G.

[Terrain]

TerrainFullName=DRV

DataFile=DRV_data.INI

TargetFile=DRV_targets.INI

TargetTypeFile=DRV_types.INI

MovementFile=DRV_movement.INI

NationsFile=DRV_nations.INI

BriefingText=DRV_briefing.INI

DogfightFile=DRV_dogfight.INI

DogfightOnly=FALSE

CatFile=..\Desert\Desert.cat
