Ships Pack 2 STD additions seems to be causing a 70%CTD...wh - Dietz - 08.08.2009

1.1AAA InstallOn going problem,all steming from the inability to get ships in the KTO Campaign.I've trced this back to the added lines that I must make to get ships to work in STD. I have not traced it down to an exact line however...technics may be it because the install instructions say to add the line to Technics( Large T instead of small t (technics)which is all I have.)
I wonder if readding ships lines ( in other words in the lines are already there & I add them again- if this is what I may have done...) could cause this problem>
Maybe I should just wait til 1,2 AA install &stop wasting all this time...?

Dietz, I may have a solution that is so simple it cannot possibly fix things but here goes.

Do you have the "ShipPack" folder inside your MODS folder?

I ask because, assuming you have the entries in the proper place, I disabled the "ShipPack" folder Inside my MODS folder and the game crashed at 70%.

It is a simple omission and I have done it several times with aircraft folders, put all the air, plane and weapons stuff in the right place, forgot to put the plane folder into MODS and crashed at 60%

No ...It is in the Mods folder,Seems i to include all the ships,but when I add the additional required lines required in the separate STD folder...then I get the crash. Replace with saved 9original)STD folder game goes fine- just no ships2

This really bites, I had so much trouble with ShipPack 2 before UI1.1 and it glided right in with UI1.1

There are 2 technics files, one for STD/com/maddox/il2/objects and one for STD/ i18n, are they both entered in the right place?

I cannot think of any other possibilities, hope you get it working.

- Dietz - 08.08.2009

Forager that might be it! Can you tell the difference in technics.Files?

- Forager - 08.08.2009

Technics.ini.txt -- copy content to the end of Il2/Mods/STD/com/Technics.ini

Technics.properties.txt -- copy content to the end of Il2/Mods/STD/i18n/Technics.properties

Also, in both of my entries the T in technics is lower case ( Il2/Mods/STD/i18n/technics.properties)

(If there is no Il2/Mods/STD/i18n folder, look for an i18n folder in your files folder.)

Hello,

sorry for my bad english.

I have the file il2/Mods/STD/i18n/technics.properties renamed in il2/Mods/STD/technics_ru.properties.

Quote:No ...It is in the Mods folder,Seems i to include all the ships,but when I add the additional required lines required in the separate STD folder...then I get the crash. Replace with saved 9original)STD folder game goes fine- just no ships2 ...

If I used the version with the added lines to my original *.ini files, the ship pack runs, but in the game I can't see ships ...

Here, i have backup the original ship.ini and technics.ini and then i replace this files with the completed files, which came with the ship pack.

Afters this my ship pack run without problems.

Thanks guys will try both ways & keep fingers crossed ( & original STD Folder that works saved)
I figure whenever the 1.2AAA install comes along this will be taken care of...I can always wait!

- Dietz - 09.08.2009

No go either way...all I can think is one or more of the ini. files is somehow corrupted or has too much in it....to get things to work may involve another 1.1 install & I don't think I want to do that again!

- davido53 - 04.09.2009

I also have CTD with shippack 2.

I think the readme is not very clear as to adding lines to files.

- Dietz - 04.09.2009

I have never got this to install without CTD!

I have ui1.1 but when i put in shippack2 into the mods folder and the ini files in the right place the game runs fine but i can,t see the ships Sad

Alls i want is the graf zepplin.

I have not CTD as yet, but I am a little baffled by the instructions. Please tell me if I am wrong here.

Shippack2 folder is inside MODS folder,

MODS/ShipPack2/AddTo Ini
........................./Mods/ShipPack/3do/Ships
................................../STD/com/maddox/il2/objects
........................................./i18n
........................./Readme

In my IL-2 Sturmovik 1946/MODS/STD/com I add the Chief, Ships, Stationary and Technics .ini text as per instructions, and

In my IL-2 Sturmovik 1946/MODS/STD/i18n I add Technics.properties

After looking at it for a while, it does not look right, but as I am not crashing out, I would rather wait for someone more knowledgeable than me to point me in right direction.
