Follow up:Scratch that,got it working now. Must've had a typo or two since it works fine now after i went back through and retyped every line i edited

I'm trying to replace an existing B-57 squadron with an F-102A unit but it's not appearing in the selection list for aircraft in the campaign even though i already edited all mentions of the unit in the campaign files to fit the F-102A unit. I usually never run into this much trouble replacing already existing units in a campaign(even with my extremely rudimentary'modding'experience)but i can't seem to get this one working. Any tips or advice troubleshooting is greatly appreciated

I literally just heard about Dolly Parton's passing like last evening,and now I wake up and the first thing I see on my phone is Tim Curry passing away too. What a strange and tragic series of events. Gonna be weird getting used to realizing'oh yeah they passed away'for a good while

I'll just have to consider it a lost cause then considering i already got banned for downloading the B-36 and B-45 in the same day before lmfao. Seriously though what's their issue? I just chalked it up to some moderator issue and forgot about it but knowing it's apparently just what they're known for,now i'm curious lol

Would anyone happen to have a copy of or a link to download the Wings over Africa mod for SF1? I'd like to play the Operation Crusader campaign but aside from medals,UI elements or plane skin downloads,i can't seem to find any downloads for the mod itself on CombatAce. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Too late for edit but follow up,I got one squadron to work correctly but for some reason random squadrons without any connection or possible conflicts that i know of to the new ones still randomly get their airbases swapped around whenever i add them into the campaign. The numbers should be correct at least from what i counted so i'm not all too certain on what might be causing it. The more squadrons i add the buggier it gets for some odd reason

So i just count back from 1 starting from the first red unit? Bit confused since most campaign files i usually edit will have the correct numbers all assigned and i'd just need to set their Unit ID according to whatever number they already have in the data file

Iraq is in there. I didin't add a new country or squadron into the campaign. I just added already existing units into the campaign ini file that contains all the playable squadrons so i could select them in the campaign screen. Usually this really isn't that hard i'd just copy paste all their details from the data ini but like i said for some reason none of the numbers match their unit IDs and i can't seem to get their paint scheme,nationality or home base to match what i actually put in the ini files except for maybe random guessing with the unit IDs until they finally match. The unit ID's in the Israeli version of the campaign all lines up normally. But for some reason in the Arab campaign they're all jumbled up. The Iraqi No.4 Squadron for example,which is the only Iraqi squadron i didn't add in myself,has the Unit ID 49 but is assigned as AirUnit065 in the data file for some reason

I edited the campaign folders to add custom units many times before and they usually work with a problem but i seem to be having an issue with the SF2I Extension mod's campaigns. What i want to do specifically is make a couple more Iraqi squadrons flyable in the Arab version of the 1973 War campaign instead of relegating them to the AI,so i added them into campaign text file under the Iraq Units section and moved their airbase to the H-3 Airbase, But instead it seems to set my home base as some other random airbase in Egypt and doesn't set the correct camo as the game thinks i'm in an Egyptian Squadron even though i'm flying in an Iraqi one. I managed to get the camo to fix itself by assigning random numbers until it thinks i'm in an Iraqi unit but this has the side effect of teleporting other squadrons to other airbases. Upon further observation,i noticed that none of the flyable unit ID's matched their actual Unit ID's in the campaign data text file either. I'm a bit lost on this issue because every other mod i ever added custom squadrons to had the units matching their unit ID's perfectly normally. If anyone has any clues on what might be happening i'd really appreciate it

Has anyone here made an Iceland campaign with 50s ships/planes.etc? I love the North Atlantic Expanded mod but aside from the 1969 camapign,most of it end up feeling samey with the same old planes and enemies over and over. Love how the NATO mod lets you experience the entirety of the Cold War from fighting with turboprops to stealth fighters and was just wondering if there were any mods that did the same thing except with carrier ops. Also side question,is there a good A-3 mod anyone has that i can mod into the campaigns?

Yep yep sorry just went through the files, Apparently the TEXTURESET001 line before the rest of the stuff for the paint scheme was missing and presumably preventing the game from reading the rest of the stuff about it since it now properly works after i manually added it. Thanks for the help regardless lol

Not sure if anyone else has had this issue before but for some unknown reason. The blue/brown paint scheme on the VautourIIA in the Israel Extension mod appearing as completely pitch black to me. I'm pretty sure it worked just fine before and this is the only aircraft and paint scheme that seems to have such an issue. I've done everything short of reinstalling SF2I itself including redownloading the mod files and deleting the mod folder and yet none seem to fix it

Mostly just asking since i know most Cold War based WW3 scenarios mainly try to base their campaign on RSR and the idea of a limited but very quick and intense conflict in Central Germany and maybe elsewhere in the Atlantic and further north but barely any scenarios in popular media try to cover what a hypothetical conflict in the Balkans involving arguably two of the most militarily weakest and most'unreliable'members NATO had during the Cold War against equally undertrained and undersupplied members of the Warsaw Pact(at least compared to the levels of elitism expected by the Soviets from East German or Czech units and the generous donations of equipment the Soviets gave them) Asia is definitely interesting though and i'd love to see how the US would've hypothetically shored up such a massive frontline against East Bloc forces seeing as they no doubt be involved in defending the ROC from the PRC,the ROK from the DPRK and Japan from the Soviets at the bare minimum(assuming if it's a pre 1975 scenario or if the Vietnamese wouldn't try to take a neutral stance or something and decided to join in the fray too by threatening Thailand and the Philippines)

I've been playing a lot of the NATO fighters mod and I really appreciate the variety of not just being able to play as not just the Soviets,but also as the East German,Polish and Czechoslovak air forces respectively. I'm just wondering if there's any mod out there that expands upon the Cold war gone hot scenario and includes a hypothetical total war scenario as to include Greek and Turkish forces and subsequently,less'famous'members of the Warsaw Pact such Hungary,Bulgaria or even Romania and Albania. I know of the Crisis in the Med mod but as far as I know that's a strictly US and Soviets only scenario although i might be mistaken

Scratch that actually you need to install the VPAF add-on before the September 2014 update,my bad lol
