Thanks for the info, i've already try to run the game as administrator and nothing. I think that I'll install Win 7 on the second SSD ( actually totally untouched) and run all from here as dual boot. Maybe this will preserve me from future headeches

Thanks Geary,this's what I've done. After copy an .exe ( SF2NA),I started and closet it to create the appropriate ODS folder in Saved Games. Here, I cleaned all the Object subcategory and added the files from the three zipped folder downloaded,made the option.ini correction and...nothing,when start the exe I've a normal SF2 screen running. I tried twice the re-installation of the modded campaign and nothing. I'm a noob ok, but in m the old Pc Win7 I added at least 4 complet modded campaign + a lot of skins,planes,etc...and all running (almost) smoothly. Start to thing more and more at the dual boot option

To be more correct,the "vanilla" 3rdW games start without problem,when I try to run the ODS mod, what start is the basic SF2 game, with all the stock Campaign and DLCs. I started to think seriously to the dual boot...

Ok guys,my fear is true. A pair of days ago I bought my new PC with Win 10.I've reinstalled all the SF2 titles and all merged and upgraded to July 2013 + all the DLC. At this point I installed the Desert Storm mod following all the instructions,as if it was the first time and nothing... Any ideas?

Thanks for the advice guys! Effectively what worried me is possible problems to run the variouus mods, but for this I'll wait 'till next week when the PC will be ready. I'm thinking if split the 2nd SSD and add a Windows 7 copy to run the games will help...

Thx guys, great help as always.

Ok gus,I've made a new installation,NA-based,but nothing I've the same problem in Campaign:the game loading 'till 80% and then freeze,the mouse arrow appear on the screen and crash on the desktop. Conversely I can play the single missions or instant action. I'm really pissed as ODS is my preferred mod....

Mate,I used the Europe full merged exe to run ODS,if I want reinstall you suggested to use NA,this mean that I can delete also the old exe and restart the whole process of a new exe for ODS?

Ok guys,after a pair of Campaign the proble mentioned at the start of the topic returned...but concurrentely to this I n oted that now in the aircraft folder are present all the stock aircraft,as if a some kind of update occurred.I tried also to delet the Version. and Option inis as suggested bi MigBuster in another discussion but nothing. Probably I'll reinstall the mod in the week end,but someone know a probable cause?

Really or is a joke?

Any ETA for the Locusta skin? Also a ODS skin and decals for the GR.1A will be welcome;I modified the ODS skin from the first GR1 release ( obviously isn't at any level of your's guys but did the trick...) A more serious one ( and decals) is nin need...

Ok,solved!

Hi all gents, I've some noob question. I'll know if the community have the skin for VF-21 F-4J as this one.I searched in the forum but look like if isn't covered in our skin library. Also,I'm searching for two ECM pods,specifically the AN/ALQ-167 for F-14s and A-6s,as the one in my mods look like a ALQ-184 ( I've it installed in both the F-14 Super Pack V130 and the ODS Campaign) and the ALQ-164. I know that the latter is present in the superb Yakarov new AV-8Bs,but my ODS installation crash with the new Harrier installed unfortunately,so I've to soldier with the old one... Finally,I've bought and installed the YAP F-100F and worked well;the only isuue with this mod is related to the load out:I can load anything trough the normal briefing screen,but otherwise the AI plane,when I play with another aircraft,have empty pylons.Any solution? Thanks all in advance.

Ehi guys just for curiosity,but which file is responsable for the roster pilots' name in a Campaign?

Your're right about the Tonka Daddy,the screenshot was of a single mission as an RSAF bird and I've changed the paint scheme just to show that this is possible in Single Mission. You don't find the number 'cause,for and HDD space problem,I've installed the latest Guuruu's GR.1 with the ODS skins from the previous release and the skin for the RSAF bird (again from the latest release). I've edited the various Campaign and plane inis ,after all the Saudi Fin was a subvariant of the RAF's. For the screenshot I'll post one from my current Campaign as a Shamrocks Hornet in which I can't choose anything and one as an USAF F-15E that show how is possible manage all. In hindsight and after look with attention at briefing screen of other installations,only the Individual Numbers and Paint Scheme will be options in a Campaign. Finally yes,the issue is for all the planes. Thanks for your time.

Hi all gents, I've published this proble also in tha campaign forum. Last week I was forced to reinstall my loved ODS mod. I followed Wrench tip and deleted only the mod folder and not the .exe;I've created the new folder running the exe and followed the instructions to install the three zips content. I added some ini of which I've made a back-up,principally some load out or data.inis but also the Campaign ones as i modified some air unit.Installed the new Tonka by Guuruu. I played a pair of single mission to check if work and all was fine,even faster to load than before. So I decided to start a Campaign but in the briefing screen I noted that ( load out a part ) I can't change any indvidual or even unit markings.Is a minor issue,true , but I'm a little pissed as for the RAF bird one of the funny things is change the various beautiful pin up of the birds. Any help/suggestion? The game is a full merged patched at Jul y '13 Here the original discussion started by zeitgeist

Nothing guys?Pleaseeee....

Ok guys,I'll confirm taht in Campaign I can't choose any Markings option,only the paint scheme.

Ehi mate,I reinstalled the whole mod and look like if work.I played a couple of single mission and all worked ...but,I tried to start a Campaign, with a USMV F-18A or USAF F-15E and in the briefing screen with the exception of the Aircraft to Arm,I can't change Individual,Service or Unit markings, or Paint Scheme. Look like if this affect the planes in the Campaign as in the screenshot below of the new Guuruu Tonka' Single mission,all look nice. Any idea? I don't continued the Campign as I prefer solve the issue,a very small one indeed,before any progress

Thanks mte!

Sorry for the very noob question,but if I choose to delete the ODS mod and reinstall it,what I'd to do?

I've also sn issue ;are two days since now that at the start of a campaign the game load 'till 80% and then stopped,the loading image have superimposed the mouse cursor,and return on the desk at touch of the space key. Last night I was able to play a single mission but when finished instead of the debriefing screen the game crashed. I've recently installed Guuruu? new Tornado,but I don't think this is related as after the installation I played a whole campaign. Any help before an eventual new installation of the mod? This is my prefferred mods for SF2 that I searched for some times and convinced me to join the community,so please help! Full-merged game,patched at July'13.

As always top notch work mate! At risk to be tedious or repetitive,do you've planned in the future to work on some Israeli weapons of the '60-s'70s? I'll love to have some 100kg. class bomb to load the French origin birds...
