yes again, one must know to work with layers.... generate, or use the planning map from (in this case Anotolia) I use the planning map 3, the biggest. Then, take the largest IME planning map (the 2048x one), drop it over the Anotolia map - it now becomes layer 1, and fade the opacity so you can see "through" it. super easy

the wall on ALL maps is 80km in from the edges Jamie, you haven't see my IME rebuild?? While not fully modern ... it address a lot of stuff TK left out... http://combatace.com/files/file/15546-sf2i-israelme-terrain-remod/

all the industrial stuff works in SF2 with no issues -- I've used them MANY times and several already completed and uploaded terrains. The file formate (LOD) is the same across all the 3rd wire games, with the exception of stock "2" series lods being in unicode. Earlier ansi lods for 1stGen game work just fine in both. nice to see the weapons carrier!!!

not really possible. It can be done, possibly, by user created single-missions. the map is far too small, with far to little sea room for CVBG (or SAGs) (minium 200-300 km radius is required). Also, none of the 1stGens really support carriers. Lacks the coding brought with SF2:NA.

in the very first line, Spud.

/Flight folder, maybe???

don't use an add on formation ini the game will automaticaly revert to "stock". no need to extract nothing

no, use "direct call" for them. You'll need to list them in the _types ini, and hand place at whatever target location is required.

yes, remember how the game engine works... it looks in FOLDERS first, then the cats. Whatever is inside the folder takes precedence over any other files. In this case, a nations ini for the rebuilt/reconditioned Anotolia terrain, within said folder.

Greece goes to "Neutral"

what about raising the viewport position a few hundred meters? To "look over" obsticales?

the lady knows!!!

File Name: XvT-BoP Draconis Ship Patch File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 02 January 2017 File Category: Star Wars Games XvT-BoP Draconis Ship Patch 1/2/2017 This ship patch was originally for old versions Win95/98 versions, the instructions herein are moddified for use with newer GoG version of XvT-Bop. It is VITALLY important that this document be read all the way through before attempting installation of ANY of the files included herein. The files provided are "as is", as they originate circa 1997. You will be copying and pasting the various files and folders, as the original install bat file no longer works in Win7 and higher operating systems (well, at least for me). For those that remember the "old days", this ship patch will add various and sundry ships to BOTH XvT and BoP, fighter types, crago craft and starships for use by both sides of the Galactic Cival War. See the enclosed original SPReadMe.txt for a more detailed listing. Most, if not all, of the upcoming mission set conversions by me will =require= several of the ships in this craft patch set. To make things even safer, it is required that you ==BACKUP== your entire original XvT game folder, with everything inside, to a safe location BEFORE INSTALLING ANY OF THESE FILES. Seriously, I really mean it! Do the safe thing!! I've written, what I hope to be, fairly simple but detailed install instructions. Included are several images (jpgs) to help illustrate the install proceedures. Any questions, comments, or issues, please post in them here at CombatAce, in this release announcement thread. We'll try to get any problems ironed out. But it's a fairly straight forward install proceedure. So, PLEASE read it all the way through before attempting the install!! Happy Flying!! Wrench Kevin J.

holy mackeral!!! that looks like a very neat piece of software!!!

why using the crappy "Desert" tiles??? use the IsrealMe tiles like I did http://combatace.com/files/file/15546-sf2i-israelme-terrain-remod/ although THIS one reuses many desert tiles, as Gepard did when he first built it 10+ years ago http://combatace.com/files/file/15380-israel-2-terrain-ver-41-upgradeupdate-for-sf2/ and making transitions is NOT that hard -- you just need to be able to work in layers.

I "made" some from various things, and they're included in some of my ww2 terrains. also, don't forget Geo's ww2 vehicles -- 88s, 3.7 brit AAA gun (retasked as arty in some cases), 37mm US and others. I'l look through my GO folder when I get a chance also check the Falklands mod for various artys

yes, quite easily. import the IsrealME tile set**, and then create the transitions from the (iirc) GermanyCE-ish tiles that PB used. Not an issue, just massivley time consuming as all the "real" mid East will need to be tiled by hand. and DON'T forget the rivers and lakes (including the man-made ones). And the Suez Canal (but not really needed...) ** including the 'specials' and expansion tiles I used for the IME and Isreal 2 rebuilds

one would need to create a *_water.bmp, and add the correctly colored "CV zones" and hope for the best. I remember when PureBlue released it, I said "there's a lot of vacant land in the south". In theory, it'd be usable (read: retiled and targeted) for those regions in Syria, Lebanon and Israel.

For Carrie....

also seems a bit like "Steamboy", as well. There's a "war of the worlds" follow up anime that I've seen on (iirc) Netflix. Lots of large mecha to counter an 2nd Martian invasion

File Name: XvT/BoP Imperial Operation: Scavenger Suppression File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 27 December 2016 File Category: Star Wars Games XvT/BoP Imperial Operation: Scavenger Suppression 12/25/2016 For XvT =WITH= BoP addon (original CD) or the new GoG version This is the fourth of 20 full battles for Imperial players, covering the time frame from before the Battle of Yavin, to after the Fall of the Empire. In this set, you are now attached to ISD Commandant. You have been tasked to track down and destroy a group of pirates known as "The Scavengers", who are most likely in colusion with the Rebels. Under Admiral Malp's command, FRG Skylark, CRV Astra and his ISD, have been ordered to clean up the mess this sector has become. See to it that order is restored, and Imperial commerce can thrive. These are to be used/placed into your ...Balance of Power/Combat folder. All missions have been edited for fairness & balance (hopefully!), due the the enhanced AI and weapons effectivness in XvT/BoP. All have new briefings and descriptions. I've added lots of radio messages to act as "in game hints" and to further plot lines. Please pay attention to them, as some may save your life or your mission critcal craft. As always, =PLEASE= read the install instructions. Of course, the usual "Notes" and other nonesense.
