Weapons

Hey Guys; Is there a manual install for FDGweaponsUSv1.2?Thanks I have a auto installer version, but I cannot get it to work.



I found the files in a wierd place, and was able to put in objects dp and scenedb. Thanks, sorry for trouble

Make sure you have:

1. The weapons's DP file, (xxx.dp) in the Objects_dp folder

2. The .bgl file in the Scenedb>Weapons>Scenery folder

3 If there is a textue file (xxx.bmp), make sure that it is in the Scenerdb>Weapons>Texture folder

Numbers 1 and 2 are required and number three is sometimes optional, but needed if the weapons are not using stock CFS 2 textures. Most weapons packages will have all three of the above, but some just have numbers 1 and 2 depending on how the author textured them.

As far as the auto installer goes, I usually install into a dummy folder and then I install the parts manually. Some installers allow you to do this, while a few seem to have minds of their own.

Hi J, I found the weapsons entirely outside cfs2 files. I was able to install the files from there. Strange, but I got the weapons. While I am here, I have a new file in cfs2,called "ppath". Evertime I use the sim, more gets added to the file. It's #s on list. Also have an error file that shows a mission file area (missing a ship). The mission is fine now (put ship in). I have never noticed these files before. Can I delete them? I am pretty sure the ppath will return, after every session.
