Ships.ini
#1

My UI 1.2 installation lacks the ships.ini file, i discovered it when i was trying to install ship pack 2.

Any way to work around this?

(I have a Ships.ini file that i backed up in my previous 1.1 install, but im not sure what's going to happen to the game if put it in the correct folder.)

Any help is appreciated Smile


Cheers!

I have the same. Probably just compare the two files and add back he missing stuff... I haven't done yet as I was just in a car crash, but maybe tomorow I'll try it since I can't go back to work yet.

Bump!

Another question:

Anybody got Ship pack 2 working with UI 1.2?

Here's the readme:


//
1. Remove ShipPack1 if you were using it.

2. Copy ShipPack folder into your game Mods folder.

3. Check content of STD folder and compare it with the same folder in your game install.

4. If you don't use any of the files from STD folder ( That's highly unlikely) just copy STD folder into your Mods folder. If you don't use already some of the files from ShipPack STD folder than copy these files to same place in your Il2 Mods folder.

5. If you are already using some of the files from STD folder than you need to add ShipPack entries to these files. To do so go to AddToIni folder where you will find following files.
-Ships.ini.txt -- copy content to the end of Il2/Mods/STD/com/Ships.ini
-Technics.ini.txt -- copy content to the end of Il2/Mods/STD/com/Technics.ini
-Chief.ini.txt -- copy content to the end of Il2/Mods/STD/com/Chief.ini
-Stationary.ini.txt -- copy content to the end of Il2/Mods/STD/com/Stationary

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


6. Start game and if you installed it correctly you will have additional ships in game.
7. If you get into trouble and no matter what you do you can't get these new ships to show in the game than don't panic. Don't call 911, they can't help you. What you need is hammer. You can use it on PC or on your head, that's the matter of personal preferences.

If that don't solve your problem you can ask for help in AAA forum.

8. If everything works than you are advanced and experienced user and you can try to make your ships. There are five open slots for new ships ( Ship0, Ship1, Ship2, Ship3, Ship4 )use it or lose it.

In the outlined & coloured text, it says that it should be a technics.properties file in the STD folder.
It didn't come with my UI 1.2 installation. Same thing with the ships.ini file..


Any help would be much appreciated!


Cheers!

I'm looking at the contents of the U.I. 1.2 download right now, and there is a static.ini, a stationary.ini, and a technics.ini, (but no ships.ini) in ...MODS\STD\com\maddox\il2\objects\

I could find all but the Chief.ini and ship.ini.

All I did was put the Chief.ini and Ship.ini in the same folder as the Technics and Stationary files.

I haven't tested everything but all the ships show in the drop down list and all the ships I tried do show in the mission.
