How do you unlock that hidden tractor in FMB? - Bee - 29.12.2007

A while back, some clever fellow showed a screenshot of a primitive looking tractor/tow vehicle. It was coded into the object list but was never activated by the devs. Apparently there is a way to make it usable, but I've since lost the link. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Cheers mates Smile

It came about from using the mod to change the tank and vehicle columns to whatever vehicles and size you want......

and upon looking down the list you can see the US Tractor with a couple of // (or whatever...null marks) disabling its use...just delete them and you are OK

Can someone tell me where to find that list where that tractor is? or do I need the sound mod first?

Thanks in advance.

definately need the sound mod first....or if not the sound mod...the mod enabler....which is on the download page......

that will give you the 'Files' file in your il2 directory...plus the 'filelist.txt'

ask again when you have those OK

This has potential. Thanks Fabianfred!
so basiclly, from the CHIEF . ini you can alter convoys and trains... Any luch at creating ship convoys?
Anybody experimenting on this?

Anyway thanks aggain.
This simple, mods are my favorites..

it has been tried...but no joy...so far

....looking carefully through the 'chiefs' ini file ...it is easy to see how to make up your own convoys of tanks or vehicles....or alter existing ones....some vehicle types were never included in the convoys because they came out later...but you can include them now
...such as the big detailed german half-tracks...or a convoy of 15 pzkfw instead of several smaller ones

remembering of course that these custom made convoys will only be available to use in the privacy of you own computer...unless you share your ini file with friends and use them in a co-op
