Campaign problems

Razor, Download the mk_cfs2_util (here: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/index.php?lloc=downloads&loc=downloads&page=info&FileID=2586) and install it and open it up and look at the planes in missions and campaigns. Any in red have a problem or are missing. It will allow you then go into that planes folder and see what is wrong with it.

Also, I run a search of my aircraft folder for "sound.cfg". Any that are only 1kb are aliased to a stock aircraft. I replace them with Lawdog's sounds. Then I search for "*.cdp" and delete them all. Then I search for "filelist.dat" and delete them all. Eventually, the sim begins to work again.

Oh, and JFYI, if you have installed "CVFA Hangar\G-55 Centauro" it comes with 27 skins and model folders. It will kick you over your plane limit before you even know it. Then you will have all sorts of CTD and errors.

ok thanks, will try it & let you know how i get on!!
 
ok have done what you suggested, there was a problem with 2 of the aircraft, which i've replaced. I now get as far as loading the scenery files in campaign mode, before it crashes back to the desktop, any other ideas, before i pull all my hair out!!

cheers

that's just it, there wasn't one, but thankfully got it sorted now, so thanks to everyone for their help, there was a problem with 2 of the aircraft which i replaced, but as far as it crashing back to the desktop, i re-installed directx & that seems to have solved it:applause:
just get a problem now when playing the first mission of the BOB campaign, about some of the scenery not loading, still plays though, but can that be replaced? & if so what with??
the other thing, can anyone recommend some good missions/campaigns??

thanks everyone & have a good christmas & new year
 
working like a dream now:applause:

any recommendations regarding campaigns, missions etc? please
 
Oh man, where to start?

The library here has a tremendous number of missions and campaigns. Almost all of them were built by members here and support is just a post a way. There are campaigns in the ETO, MTO, PTO and everything inbetween.

Rami, one of our most prolific of campaign modifyers and builders just announced a new site for his work. It is at Sopwith's new CFS 2 site and you can read about it at this thread:

The old Battle of France is one of my favorites. I can run out of fuel in that Hurricane before return to base 7 out of ten times.
