[MapMod] 4 seasons for CanonUK new Channel map !
#16

Genrlemen,

First off, my thanks to ALL modders and AAA founders! I first started with the demo in 2000, got away when FSX was released and somehow discovered AAA and just what you have done to IL2.

WOW!

I now spend much ore time with IL than the previous years (finally retired from software dev and prof pilot).

A quickie please: Mr. Cannon's new maps I installed as instructed and can see the maps( moded the static and removed the 'b') but no executable when I press RUN. I went wrong somewhere so will use the original beta version for the BoB I develop.

Any ideas?

System: tuned for FSX/ i7 920@3.9/3 Gb 1600 Mushkin/Nvidia 285/XP64

Many thanks for the superb mods; no comparison to the original - Oleg should be proud!

A GOOD NEW : the new Canon's Channel map is now included within the UP 2.0 (HSFX also I suppose ?)

So il becomes easier than ever to install and use (and desactivate if needed but you won't, I'm sure) my seasons's pack inside the "MODS" folder

- just remember to put the new lines inside the all.ini file in MODS/mapmods/maps/ ... folder (use a copy of the all.ini file located in the files/maps/... folder.)
...and to activate the MODS folders by deleting the"-" sign.

HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL Big Grin

problem is, I cannot generate a quick mission in the QMB+, I always get a "wrong target selected" message;
I have the quick missions installed as they should be, I think, yet, I cannot generate a quick mission;

any ideas?

thanks in advance for any hint

Hi Griffon, be careful about the QMB+ : corresponding mission files MUST be present and WORKING in your missions/quick/... folder.

- Many thanks for your efforts to add even better detail to the Channel map.

- I have UP2.0n installed with no other Mods activated in the Mods folder.

- Download and install of your 4 seasons file has gone very smoothly.

- Unfortunately, as soon as the all.ini lines are changed, the prog. crashes to destop on loading.

- I have done a fair amount of experimentation and tried all obvious fixes....removed all active mods from JSGME etc. etc.


Any ideas?

Many thanks to the author of the present improvement of the maps, especially for removing the trees from Champs Elysees, where we can freely land now. :drinking:

Laziness is the mother of progress. My QMB missions can be found here:

@ Nicholaiovitch

I also run it with UP 2.0 without any problem.
Just one thing : As UP include CanonUK's files INSIDE sfs, only the new airfields texs have to be added:
-Go to "Mods/CanonUK_objects/3do/buildings/... folder.
-Rename "Fields" folder to "FieldsSAV" (just an example of name) >>> This one doesn't appear anymore...
-Rename "-Fields" folder to "Fields" ...done !

The lines have to be added in all.ini INSIDE MODS/Mapmods/Maps/... but not in Files/Maps/... and folder MODS has to activated by deleting "-" before "MODS".

Anyway, as by default MODS is named -MODS in UP 2.0, it is possible that the files don't unpack at the right place : if you see a new MODS folder appear, the mistake is done (because the installation wasn't made for UP 2.0)

SO, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO ACTIVATE MODS FOLDER BEFORE INSTALLATION (or do a manual install within a temporary folder)

Many thanks GilB 57.

- Apparently UP2.0n has a new all.ini that will not accept any blank lines.

- The entry for your maps is then without the ******* lines at top and bottom and no line spaces between the map entries above (or below...if you enter higher up the file)

- All works fine now, so thanks a lot.

Gilles, excellent work! It works like a charm for me and the new airfields fix, IMHO, the only small flaw of the Canon's excellent work. Thanks!

Giles, does this include bumph textures which, it seems, are included in UP 2.0? Now that I have a HSFX install, I want to have this with the bumph textures Wink

Also, where can one find your repainted Normandy map from? (I think your repainted one that you did of fly_zo's BoB version)

Thanks for that! Big Grin
