SayethWhaaaa

Damn you're quick. I just this second saw that here: http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2008/09/28/2376099.htm That's too bad...

Ooh... nice.

Nice 1 Col 5! It's all (surprisingly ) working a treat now. I was editing this around 3am last night. Got no idea why I had 151 in there... Just a quick question, is there a maximum cap for adding air units? I'm just playing around with it to see what I can add to see what exactly I can do with a campaign...

I'm gonna ask a n00b question since I've never made any campaigns before. I've flicked though Bunyap's tute site and it's all pretty straight forward but I'm having an issue. I've setup my new side (Royal Oz Navy), am able to select the side and begin the campaign as normal. Like so... However, once in, I have a problem. That's no G-type Scooter. I'm thinking that it my have something to do with how I added the RAN unit into the WOVCAMPL1_DATA.ini after the last US unit entry: //----- Player Unit [AirUnit075] AircraftType=F-4J Squadron=VMFA333 ForceID=1 Nation=USMC StartDate=6/1972 DefaultTexture=USNGrey1 (and the rest) I added the following: //----------------------------------------------------------------------------- //---- Australian Navy Units //----- Player Unit [AirUnit076] AircraftType=A-4G Squadron=VF805 ForceID=1 Nation=AustralianNavy DefaultTexture=RANGrey1 BaseArea=Da Nang Air Base BaseMoveChance=0 RandomChance=100 MaxAircraft=14 StartAircraft=14 MaxPilots=21 StartPilots=16 Experience=100 Morale=100 Supply=50 MissionChance[sWEEP]=0 MissionChance[CAP]=30 MissionChance[iNTERCEPT]=0 MissionChance[ESCORT]=0 MissionChance=80 MissionChance[CAS]=60 MissionChance[sEAD]=0 MissionChance[ARMED_RECON]=50 MissionChance[ANTI_SHIP]=0 MissionChance[RECON]=50 UpgradeType=NEVER Rebase[01].Date=6/1972 Rebase[01].BaseArea=Takhli RTAFB Rebase[02].Date=10/1972 Rebase[02].BaseArea=Udorn RTAFB As well as the unit's weapons specs. I also renumbered every subsequent unit so as to make sure all air units were in numerical sequence. Also, the new campaign data config looks like this: [CampaignData] CampaignName=010172 Distant Thunder DataFile=wovCampl1_data.ini CampaignMap=VietnamSEA Service001=USAF Service002=USN Service003=USMC Service004=AustralianNavy [uSAFUnit001] UnitName=13th TFS Black Panthers ForceID=1 UnitID=2 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart2.txt AircraftType=F-105D [uSAFUnit002] UnitName=34th TFS Fighting Rams ForceID=1 UnitID=3 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart2.txt AircraftType=F-105D [uSAFUnit003] UnitName=354th TFS Bulldogs ForceID=1 UnitID=22 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart1.txt AircraftType=F-105D [uSAFUnit004] UnitName=357th TFS Licking Dragons ForceID=1 UnitID=24 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart2.txt AircraftType=F-105D [uSAFUnit005] UnitName=389th TFS Gunfighters ForceID=1 UnitID=25 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart2.txt AircraftType=F-4C [uSAFUnit006] UnitName=416th TFS Silver Knights ForceID=1 UnitID=28 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart1.txt AircraftType=F-100D [uSAFUnit007] UnitName=433rd TFS Satan's Angels ForceID=1 UnitID=32 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart2.txt AircraftType=F-4C [uSAFUnit008] UnitName=531st TFS Ramrods ForceID=1 UnitID=39 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart1.txt AircraftType=F-100D [uSAFUnit009] UnitName=555th TFS Triple Nickel ForceID=1 UnitID=40 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart2.txt AircraftType=F-4C [uSNUnit001] UnitName=VF-21 Freelancers ForceID=1 UnitID=61 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart3.txt StartScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp CampaignBaseScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp AircraftType=F-4B [uSNUnit002] UnitName=VF-24 Checkertails ForceID=1 UnitID=64 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart3.txt StartScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp CampaignBaseScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp AircraftType=F-8E [uSNUnit003] UnitName=VA-75 Sunday Punchers ForceID=1 UnitID=81 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart3.txt StartScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp CampaignBaseScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp AircraftType=A-6A [uSNUnit004] UnitName=VA-93 Blue Blazers ForceID=1 UnitID=88 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart3.txt StartScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp CampaignBaseScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp AircraftType=A-4C [uSNUnit005] UnitName=VF-96 Fighting Falcons ForceID=1 UnitID=91 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart3.txt StartScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp CampaignBaseScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp AircraftType=F-4B [uSNUnit006] UnitName=VF-111 Sundowners ForceID=1 UnitID=94 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart3.txt StartScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp CampaignBaseScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp AircraftType=F-8E [uSNUnit007] UnitName=VA-164 Ghost Riders ForceID=1 UnitID=113 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart3.txt StartScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp CampaignBaseScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp AircraftType=A-4E [uSNUnit008] UnitName=VA-192 Golden Dragons ForceID=1 UnitID=118 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart3.txt StartScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp CampaignBaseScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp AircraftType=A-4C [uSNUnit009] UnitName=VF-211 Checkmates ForceID=1 UnitID=122 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart3.txt StartScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp CampaignBaseScreen=CampaignCarrier.bmp AircraftType=F-8E [uSMCUnit001] UnitName=VMFA-115 Able Eagles ForceID=1 UnitID=127 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart2.txt AircraftType=F-4B [uSMCUnit002] UnitName=VMA-211 Wake Island Avengers ForceID=1 UnitID=130 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart2.txt AircraftType=A-4E [uSMCUnit003] UnitName=VMF(AW)-235 Death Angels ForceID=1 UnitID=137 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart2.txt AircraftType=F-8E [uSMCUnit004] UnitName=VMA-311 Tomcats ForceID=1 UnitID=139 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart2.txt AircraftType=A-4E [uSMCUnit005] UnitName=VMFA-314 Black Knights ForceID=1 UnitID=141 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart2.txt AircraftType=F-4B [AustralianNavyUnit001] UnitName=VF805 ForceID=1 UnitID=151 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovRTStart.txt StartText=wovRTStart2.txt AircraftType=A-4G The kicker is that the USAF 4th TFS The "Fightin' Fujins" aren't even in the list! If what I've done is glaringly obvious, could someone point it out to me? Can't seem to get my head around it at the mo...

Static aircraft won't spawn during campaign missions?? I thought there might be something weird with that. I got them working after the patch (in Single Mission) but I've been making a WOV campaign in the last few days and during testing I noticed no static aircraft were showing up. I thought maybe I mistook patching my WOV for WOE and needed to apply the patch to both, but I already have... Hmmm.

B-36 from A-Team dude. Only got released in the last couple of days. I thought I noticed the reports from the turrets above and out by the outer parts of the main wing. Only problem is that I can't seem to get close enough to any fast movers again to see if it was just me or if the muzzles were displaced.

Yeah? My info says the P-3Cs are about 200kph (aprox. 105kts) slower... After having seen 10 and 11 Sqn flying around my state for years, you wouldn't notice the difference!

Damn... if worst comes to worst, we could always pool your downloads (the ones we don't already have) here or something in the meantime Dave. That really sucks about your RL work, especially the dissertation!

Since I expect to be on the receiving end of a roundhouse very soon, I don't expect to be finding unconsciousness funny...

They look great Kuk! :yes:

Tigers hunt at dawn...

What Roberto just explained was originally described here, page 2. This is what worked for me.

http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showt...32187&st=20 Check out page 2, there's a possible solution to your there.

This has already been brought up a couple of times, I'll find the link and post it shortly, but in the meantime have you tried opening up the weaponsdata.ini with the WOI weaps editor and saving it to update the weaponsdata.ini?

What?! They fixed that?? I might dig it out and dust it off... I like the idea of being able to mod the weapons.

Apparently, if downloaded anywhere but North America, South Africa, Oz or NZ you get the error message "ErrorCode = PI, 30022". Which is interesting since the game is produced in South Korea.

She's gonna be sh*tting bricks about this when she gets back! A buddy of mine were going to attempt to make a modernised Skyraider in our dwindling free time. I think this would be a good design to emulate, sans the wingtip tanks... and maybe an 8 blade prop.

Yeah, once I was able to update the weapons.dat, it worked a charm for me.

Might have figured out this whole "Lock phasers and fire" thing...

No, they said F-13s, whatever they are. Not Mig-21s.

Yeah, I feel more confident about what JSF_Aggie has to say about it than someone like Denis Jensen. It's a no brainer.

Take it easy Stubbs!

Nice snap!

Everyone's taking the F-13=Mig-21 to heart a bit. I was just taking the p*ss. I think they meant F-16 and it was a keypad typo. Still, stealth or not, I think comparing F-35s to Su-30s is a bit of a waste of time as their operational profiles (along with their systems, ordinance, pilot training, etc) is going to have a large bearing on how they are going to fare against each other. I mean, lightweight aircraft and heavy aircraft are going to be able to perform similar roles, but the way they're applied is going to be quite different (especially with the RAAF's penchant for low level, scattered penetration). The F-35s will do the job nicely and the SuperBugs will be able to provide an effective top cover against the Sukhois, if ever they met (I've got more of a chance of hooking up with Tina Fey!). F-15Es would do it better for around the same cost, but here we are. I'd say this "are the F-35s worthy" debate here is akin to asking what's 'best' between the F-4 Phantom and the A-4 Skyhawk. Both are good at what they do, they just do it differently. We simply don't need the F-22, even if the US would sell it to us. It's just fear mongering by the uninformed. Unfortunately, that includes the Senate as well.

That's what used to screw me with the copying over weapons packs from WOI to the others in the past. I forgot to update the weapons.dat.
