Having downloaded and installed Home Fries A6 Superpack, I can't get the Intruder's to show up in any campaign. With the sale today, I have all the campaigns and the DLC and still can't get the Intruders to show up in the menu options. What am I doing wrong? I followed your instructions to the letter and still nothing. Have all of these merged as of tonight: SF2E SF2NA SF2I SF2V DLC Campaign Customizer Also, installed Jones Generic Mod folder in the main SF2 directory. Is it supposed to be installed in the X:\Users\Name\Saved Games\Thirdwire?

So, one more question.......for now. I cannot find my squadronlist.ini file. I have looked through all 4 installs under their repsective pilot data folders and my squadronlist.ini is now missing. Does this mean I must reinstall to make another squadron list?

OK, finally just dragged and dropped from a folder off desktop into the User file and all seems to work. It would seem the bad thing about doing it this way is it makes it a bit tough to remove the mods, should they not work so well. As the noob, I'll slowly get the hang of it and suspect there will be many removal and re-install of the game and files. Was there ever a sticky though laying out how to do this or comparing one style versus the other? If not, perhaps something that could be cobbled together to additional new guys coming into the fold. Afterall, I know of no other game that has so much external content and such confusing installations. Thanks for everyone's help. BTW, I did download an SF1 A6 to use it's cockpit for the A6 Superpack. Is moving the cockpit files over similarly difficult?

You just installed into the general SF2 folder, not the specifics of each NA, I, E and V?

So, for clarification, download the full mod into each of the individual installs, not the MOD folder created by JGME? Also, there's not an effect folder anywhere in the base install, so once it's created, the game engine knows how to utilize that folder as well? BTW, thanks for your patience and assistance. I like to think myself savvy in these installs, but I'm really banging my head against the wall so I do appreciate all comments and understanding.

That's what I've already tried, via the Username path and still nothing. The mods folder is created when you run the JGME program from within the folder. So, unless I am misunderstanding you, you've repeated what I posted above. This is really frustrating.

Someone please tell me there's an "Installing Mods for Dummies" somewhere. I have updated the May patch, installed JGME into the "Username>Saved Games>Thirdwire>SF2NA/SF2E/SF2I/SF2V" folders. Ran JGME to establish a Mods folder in each saved game folder, then installed my first aircraft add on, Voodoo super pack, logged into SF2 nad searched for any F101 variant, to include using the Campaign Enabler that allows flying any plane, in any campaign and not a single F101 of any variation for any campaign 1956-1989. What am I doing wrong? This is frustrating as all get up and I simply don't remember the SF series being overly difficult to mod. I understand why the A6 doesn't show up, but the Voodoo pack is complete. So, apologies for looking like a total tool, but really wanting to get back into the SF2 series and at wits end. Matt

Dave, Apologies for being absent for so long...too much real world excitement going on, but it's calming down enough to enjoy all the work you and your team have amassed over the years I've been gone. I do not have a cockpit installed, so looks as though I'll be purchasing the RAZBAM Intruder for SF this coming payday. Oldest gradutates this month, so having to be frugal and just spent my allowance on the Memorial Day sale. Anyway, glad to be back here and looking forward to getting back into the SF series. SupGen, Thanks for the info as well. I will have to give them a go again tomorrow and see what pans out. Have a great night all. Matt

Anyone still playing this classic? I just found it on an abandonware site and trying to get it to run in D-Fend. However, get mouse errors, HIMEM and EMM386 messages. I looked into D-Fend, but can't find anything about these settings. It's too bad it didn't keep a following like Jane's F-18 and F-15E. Any help appreciated. Matt
