MigBuster

Yes if they are updated by their creators other wise you can try them out but if they have old ini files with them then you will have to apply those changes to the new inis - or make relevant changes.

What version of the weapons editor are you using for that? - should have a date with it If you use the Sep 2008 patch dont install the weps pack directly into the game - install the pack to a folder on your desktop then manually drag the weapons folder over to the game and save it with the latest editor.

Windows 7 - cant believe that could only be a year away - One thing for certain is that someone somewhere will get a Blue Stop screen or the equivalent. Seen no end on Windows XP - doesn't matter what version you have - has often been HD related - in one instance it required a reinstall of wireless drivers (on a newly built XP machine!), once it was caused by Hyperthreading being turned on - and thats the beauty of it could be one of many things. Try different virtual memory settings(if you can in Vista), check everythings plugged together as well as it can be - try disabling things - like network cards for example and then playing a game to see if it still happens - your best hope (not short of deciphering the stop code ) is to try and narrow it down. I would be screaming at the thing by now myself too - reminds me of how stable Windows 95 was out of the box

I dunno - these defence budget cuts!

Do you set up separate profiles for your video card? you may need to increase the AA/AF settings - If you have the in game settings up to full - then you can still tweak the card up.

Nice one

Just extract the files (about 30 of em) from objectdata.cat in WOI - put them in a new folder - and move the cockpit files to a cockpit subfolder - if yr not sure look at the file arrangement in other add on planes

Well if you cant get it to work an alternative is press R after a call is made then F4 and that will spin your head round to look in the direction.

Yep - just dont install it directly into the game if you are on sept 2008- install it on the desktop then move over what you want from it avoiding old ini files.

Is it the sort of thing only a Thud lover would notice?

Looks like its been removed by TK - was a handy IFF feature but I cant see a way to get it back in game

2 things you must do in WOVCAMPL2_DATA.ini - in the "linebackerII" folder Change this then save //----- Player Unit [AirUnit016] AircraftType=F-4E_Late <----change to F-4ES (must be exact name given by its folder) Squadron=555TFS ForceID=1 Nation=USAF DefaultTexture=USAFtng1 <----change to the F-4ES skin you want to use Then open LinebackerII.ini - also in the LinebackerII folder and scroll down: [uSAFUnit007] UnitName=555th TFS Triple Nickel ForceID=1 UnitID=16 StartDate=1972 DescFile=wovL2Start.txt StartText=wovL2Start1.txt AircraftType=F-4E_Late <-----change to F-4ES Save and thats it Do you see "UnitID=16" in the second bit above? That unit ID must be the same as the [AIRUNITxxx] in wovcampl2_data.ini - in this case [AirUnit016]

Be careful - None of the weapons packs are updated yet for September 2008 it looks like - my only advice is to install the weps pack to a new separate folder on your desktop - then manually copy over what you need to the game - taking care NOT to copy over old ini files that come with the pack.

happy birthday to ya

From what ive seen the AIs main fault is down low where they dont seem to have much confidence - other than that its all good - have seen hit and run slashing tactics too from MiG-23/21s - and you cant catch them - previously it would have continued in a straight line doing about 200kts :) Not sure about RL but in Falcon 4 AF consider yourself dead if you let something get within about 10 miles of you with an R-77 - all you can do is pray the missile was made on a Friday afternoon!

What like? rarely go past 82 myself

Yeah the stock ones in WOI are very bouncy on the ground - a bit more interesting - kinda like it myself - check it out when you slam breaks too :)

One of the best Mods ever makes a comeback - great to see

Who created the work? Is their name on here http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showt...=26131&st=0 If not probably best to just PM them

Not myself - is this a totally clean install?

hmm http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7651327.stm Think they will dogfight next :)

Not looking to good - hope hes okay!

Right so you managed to open up weapondata.ini which should be in your objects\weapons folder and you can see all the weapons including the stock ones in the editor? Also in the object\weapons folder you should have all the files needed for the 3rd part weapons - are they there? Can we just confirm: You installed the game from scratch then installed the sept2008 patch (you cannot install the patch over a game you have modified already) Then installed the MF weapons pack? (which one?) None of the weapons packs are updated for Sept2008 I believe so if you installed the whole thing then it will have placed old files in your game which are screwing certain things up. If you must install a weapons pack install it to a new folder on your desktop - then open the folder and copy over the Weapons folder only to your new install. The controls will have been reset if you installed it over your existing game.

what game? have you just plonked the terrain into a Sept2008 version of the game? and did it include any old ini files with it that may have replaced the newer ones?
