I would extract and check the latest version of the nations ini, as several of the ex-Soviet and ex-WarPac countries already have the alignment change included, stock

all right!! congrats!!

yup, that's a Bear (Tu-95)

addition for the Imperial sets: Fall of the Empire (3 interconnected sets, re-edited to "merge" with each other. What happens to a Imperial task group, stranded in the Pakuuni systems in the days, weeks, and months following the Battle of Endor. Can you survive, rejoin with other Loyalist Forces, and save what's left of the Empire?) addition to the Rebel sets: Exeter TODs (2 sets during the Galactic Civil War -- haven't (re)started these to answer Silberpfiel, unfortunately, no. which is a pity.

awesome!!!!

File Name: XvT-BoP: Imperial Training Missions File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 18 February 2015 File Category: Star Wars Games Imperial Historical Training Missions = For XvT, with BoP add on (REQUIRED!!) = (Works with original XvT/BoP CD and GoG versions) This is a set of 20 Imperial "Historical" training missions. You may recognize them from TIE Fighter CD or the recently released GoG Win7 TF versions. It should also be noted, several of these DO already exist (in some form or another) in the Stock XvT/BoP Training missions. They have been converted to run in XvT with the BoP add on, as several things have been modified from their original 1990s release, and several ships required ARE only in the BoP add on (the B-Wing being the most important!). Also, there are =NO= missions that use the TIE Defender or Missile Boat. These HAVE been converted, but are not included until we can be sure a ship patch will work on the new GoG version. When (and if) that happens, those 8 missions will be released as an add-on to these. These are to be used/placed into your ...Balence of Power/Train folder. As these ARE training missions, and not (really!) full combat. Many of these missions have additional goals, messages (which are sometimes used as in-game hints), and "eye candy" added. I've tried, as much as possible, to keep the "feel" of the originals. As always, PLEASE read this enclosed readme for full, detailed install instructions. Give the "Note" section a read too, for well, notes! Good luck and good flying! Wrench Kevin Stein For the Glory of The Empire!! Click here to download this file

cat pointer line? even for a cloned terrain, it needs to know what cat use

Nice to have you back, my friend!! great job on these!!

so, it's something like this?? this is for an external pod, (under belly for the Suhkois) but perhaps, making the MG itself the pod, and having it point at 45 degs down?? just throwing out ideas!

one of the major issues you'll all forgetting is, the game engine sets recon missions BELOW 1000 feet. so, for high flyers like the U2 or SR71, you'll need to either hand fly the entire mission*, or --and nobody has ever tested this-- build them individually, and hope the waypoint altitudes "stick" in the mission *for those that haven't, might want to read the "notes" section in the SF2 U-2 Upgrade pack I did a few years ago. http://combatace.com/files/file/11575-lockheed-u-2a-for-sf2/

is it a gun pod (per se), or the gun is part of the aircraft? I know in SF/SF2 we have gun pods that the angle is pointed down (3 pods for the Su-9/11). iirc, they're called SPPU-22(something) if the gun is aircraft part, what about the "AimAngles=" statement in the data ini? (below is from the B-57)

I didn't know anyone was making one! on the Tunisia terrain, the southern half is there (from Rome down)

there is no radar ground locking of targets in the SF series. It's usually IIR or laser designated (again, around 5nm). Not going to get into the 'GPS homing' and others, which are (also kind of, sort of) "fake worked around". and radar in search mode is very different from radar in "track while scan" and "single target track", which are only air-to-air modes in game.

because at 50nm, you 45nm out of range

hit the Tab key while in flight, and it'll bring up the wingman command menu.

File Name: XvT-BoP Mission Pak - Rebel Operation: Wolf Pack File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 14 February 2015 File Category: Star Wars Games XvT-BoP Mission Pak - Rebel Operation: Wolf Pack *Note: these missions have been converted to BoP format. This is required, due to some of the ships needed for them are NOT in "standard" XvT. No ship patch or other mods are needed* This is an 11 mission campaign for Xwing vs Tie fighter. Introduction: Green Squadron flees the destruction of the Rebel Base at Hoth to the Sigma sector to raid Imperial shipping. Here it is hoped they can regroup, refit, contact other fleeing Rebel forces, and continue the Fight for Freedom in the Galaxy. This sector of the Empire is far removed from the front lines. This should be an easy (read: safe) hunting ground. Many of these missions have additional goals, messages (which are sometimes used as in-game hints), and "eye candy" added.

yes, both the rebel and mission lst files, as per the tutorial http://combatace.com/topic/85274-tutorial-adding-missions-to-xvtbop/

does no one use the Knowledge Base anymore??? There's like 3 or instances of the "how to extend the years" in there http://combatace.com/topic/68224-adjusting-beginning-end-year-spread/ and yes, as spinners posted you'll need to adjust the terrain's year spread too.

great find! thanks for sharing!

if you're NOT referencing the VietnamSEA.cat, you MUST put the Vietnam airfield inis IN the new terrain folder. Extract them from the VeitnamSEA cat, and toss them in.

actually, missiondata001.cat if extracted, it GOES into the /Flight folder

they already exist in the stock nations ini Croatia - Nation 145 Serbia - Nation 169
