Leyte 1944 missions...revised update

I have all the downloads for these missions in a file, but not sure how to handle th FDG_f4u2-2 file. Looks like the .exe downloads all the Corsairs into the appropriate file in CFS 2. Is that what you do?
 
Highpockets,

I had the Corsair pack in another install ( my test install for planes and ships ) and just moved the FDG_f4u2-2 into the install I did the missions.It has no weapons so it was no problem.

Talon, I tried out a couple of the missions. They were great, of course. Got a whole lot of fixing to do. I tried to get fancy and swap some of Collin's carriers into the missions. Tried to take a couple of photos of 2 burning bombers from the F6F, but can't find the dang things. Tomorrow, I will straighten my mess out. I was racing around like a June bride, trying to get it all installed. You really did a great job on these missions. I :salute: you, you are indeed a master of mission building. Thank you.:ernae:
 
Mariereid,

If you read my earlier post you'd see I used Collins Essex Class Carriers.So there is no reason to swap them.

When I loaded it up,it said it coudn't find the "oil tank"on mission 1. Can anyone help me on this?

This is the name of the zip file but I'm not sure where you'll find it. If you give me your email address I'll send it to you.

Cheers

The Barbarossa files are part of Rami's efforts - I've taken the liberty of uploading it to CFS2 Scenery for him [no image, however], and it will be part of the permanent file here shortly.

Thanks for that SC, I too do not have the oil tank. When I get home, I gotta mess about with the corsair a little, that devil is acting up for some reason. The missions I HAVE flown are really full of action and my fps are great. What more could a fella ask for! :ernae:
 
Sorry Guys,
This is very strange,I never downloaded anything for the Russian campaigns.I thought it was stock.Most things that you d/l have-LW for Lindsay Watts,AF for the Pen32Win's stuff and so on.I think it might be from the original PHP2 stuff from about 2004 or 2005 that was never released and it was still being worked on.The PHP2 that was released doesn't have it though.I only found a dp file for it in all my installs.

Unraveling the mystery...

Okay, guys. The "oiltank" is actually from the BoB airbases pack by Gary Burns. I had been using that for ages in a lot of my campaigns but have recently switched to the ones that Pen32Win did in his airfield objects pack.

To fix this problem, you have a couple of options. Open up the mission manually (using notepad / wordpad) and scroll down to the object and aircraft list, looking for something like this...

[unit_type.11]
type_id=4921
unit_family=4
name=oiltank

Then change it from "oiltank" to "oiltank1"

This is a stock CFS1 object that will work.

-OR-

Download and install these objects: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/downloads/download.php?lloc=downloads&FileID=13475

Then change the name from "oiltank" to any one of these four...

AF_OilTankG2
AF_OilTankB2
AF_OilTankB1
AF_OilTankG1

This will cure the missing object problem!
 
Anybody know where i might find vn_freighter3, or what package it might be part of? Im going through each mission by hand to see what i might be missing and so far this is it.
