MR_Solomons_2008 Scenery Help...

Installed the whole kit as per spec.

Added all the AF stuff and deleted the "file_lists".

Copied the bmp's to the main "texture" folder.

Everything CFS2 works great, ...

Except for MB...

...won't load and get a "Corrupt file, ...might have to re-install" message.


Any help w/ this one?

Thanks in advance.

BD,

I'll bet the problem lies elsewhere as all the new Maskrider fields are performing well in my sim and the required addons have never caused a problem, for me at any rate.

I just had my New Guinea installation go south a few days ago and I finally tracked the culprit down to the MDLNAMES.dat file of all things. When I added several new buildings to it, it apparently went beyond that magic "100 plane" limit and the MB quit loading. I removed all of the CFS 1 objects from it, thus reducing its size a bit and it's working again. I've never seen that specific problem before and it probably doesn't apply to your situation, but I thought that I'd throw it out for consideration.

Did you add the new airfields to your airfields.dat file? If so, how many do you have listed. With XP on my computer, I'm running 500 listed airfields (Xavier's total Far East Scenery) at 137kbs size with no issues, but perhaps you've gone beyond your sims ability to accept anymore add ons. This happens to each of my installations sooner or later it seems. Too may add ons and they eventually go south.

Well I'll be dipped in !#$% and twice fried...

...Nugget Blue Devil reporting for duty.

Expanded the A6M3a to included a coupla short Bbl models (PF/AI), ...which motivated me to getin' round to installing the new MR/AF scenery.

...The AF_Arty topped-off the A/C bucket.

Don't know why CFS2 didn't glitch, ...so I initially ruled out the 100 A/C prob.

Well, ...MB is back.

Thanks Jagd for the guide-on.

And to MaskRider, Leroy10, Pen32Win, and the AF team, ...a big thanks for the beautiful scenery.
