Ok, I changed every F-105D I could find to the-25, it didn't work, still got CTD. So I just fixed everything back to the plain D model and it works like normal. I guess I'll have to contact MigBuster. Thanks for the help. HR

Thanks Wrench, but I think I have another problem...after adding the F-105D-25 folder in the objects/aircraft folder, I changed all F-105Ds to -25 in all 3 campaign.ini (RT, LB1, LB2). I went to fly in the RT campaign, clicked accept and got a CTD. I reread MigBusters sticky "adding a/c's to campaigns" and extracted the MissionData file, changed all sqd's flying the F-105D to -25's. After I save the changes, do I paste the MissionData folder back in the FLIGHT folder?

Thanks again MigBuster, I take it that the campaign files are located in the "CAMPAIGNS" folder? I got this example from the Rolling Thunder config file... [uSNUnit002] UnitName=VF-24 Checkertails ForceID=1 UnitID=64 StartDate=1965 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart3.txt StartScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp CampaignBaseScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp AircraftType=F-8E <<<<<------------ I just change the a/c name to match the I'm substituting? HR

Hey all, I noticed that not all a/c's have data.ini files. Example...I want to use the camouflage pilot helmet by Wrench on the F-4, the -D model has a data.ini file, while the -C & -E models do not. Can I just copy the F-4D Data.ini file to the -C & -E models to get the data.ini files?, or will that just give them the D's flight characteristics. HR

Wrench & Jaman, Thanks, what a handy tool to have!

Ok, I think I have that cat extractor, I think it's called SFP1E_10, but I have not installed it yet.

Hey everyone, Just want opinions/feedback from the community, been having a ball flying SF1 series and all its add-ons, I want to know should I get SF2 series? The only thing I know about the second series is the graphics are better and you can play on Vista or Win 7. I looked over the TW website and noticed that SF2 can also be played on XP (which is what I have) and there seem to be a lot more skins, add-on, campaigns and the like. HR

Ok, thanks for the input, looks like I'll be flying SF2 series soon enough. HR

Just flew a mission in WOE_NF4, launched all missiles at 1 enemy a/c I locked up and ALL 8 missiles failed to track. Question is; Will changing the values (Accuracy, Lock-on Chance, Noise Rejection, CM Rejection & Target Aspect..to name a few) for the early AIM-9s & AIM-7s to higher values make them perform like later versions? i.e. AIM-9L -P & AIM-7F -M.

Yeah FC I know it would be arcadish, but it's very frustrating when ALL of you missiles go "stupid" and you have to shoot down enemy bombers with your gun while being chased by their escorts...oh wait, that's what TOP GUN & AGRESSOR SQD was for...nevermind.

I recently installed Vietnam 1984 add-on campaign to a Oct2008 patched version of WoV. 1. WoV (clean) 2. Oct2008 patch 3. Weapons Pack 1/25/09 4. Weapon Editor 2/2008 5. Vietnam 1984 Everything was installed in the above order, I double and triple read the readme file, all folders were in their correct locations. I started the game and this is when the keystrokes started acting funky...for example the A key (autopilot) cycled through the nav lights, the Z key (ECM on/off) jettisoned the external tanks and the B key (brakes) set the bomb release intermitten times. Now before anyone says go to the 'Options' screen, I did that and rechecked for the corrosponding keys to the functions I wanted and the same thing occured. I've install/uninstalled/reinstalled everything twice and can't get keys to work right. Anyone else have this happen? How did you fix it? Samething happened with the F/A-18E add-on 2 weeks ago, I just reinstalled the a/c and the keys work fine. Can't explain that one. Any advice on this???

To FastCargo & Wrench, Thanks for the advice, that did the trick.

OK, got it. Thanks

If I do that, will the game still work??

Thanks FC, I'll give it a try.

Panama Red--thanks but I'm playing series 1, keep fogetting to mention that. Say What?!--thanks for the info, I'll give it a try.

Quick question about this a/c.... Want to install in WoE w/08 patch and looking over the folders I know where everything goes except for the folders named "agrusn1" and "seat_SJU-17". Do these folders go into the OBJECTS folder or somewhere else? Do I open each folder and put the individual files in or the whole folders? Thanks

Just installed clean versions of WoE & SFP1 series 1, flipped through the download section under "patches" and found Sep2008 update. Can I install the Sep2008 update AND then install Oct2008b update over that OR just install the Oct2008b update. Also, what's the latest weapons pack to use? I checked the weapons pack download section and found 2 by MF one dated January 2008 and a second dated January 25, 2009 (or do these only work with MF a/c?) The last one I found was Weapons Pack 2.25 by the Wo*/SFP1 community. I have a couple of the Weapon Editors one dated 02/20/08 & the second dated 04/24/06. (Which one works with which update?) I have the old Weapons Pack 3Jul2006 by Bunyap. (Will this work with WoE or SFP1 patched to Oct2008b?) Thanks

Finally started flying the KAW campaign...problem is when I choose to fly the F4U Corsair for the Marines in the campaign mode, the game crashes and I'm kicked backed to Windows. What can be done to fix this? (if any)

I found the file 'Korean Air War Mod' submitted by Edward on 15 Oct 2006, is this the mod you are referring to?

Very nice...cool.
