So far, so good. :)
T_dude... can't the sptinstall can be gotten round by putting the commandline optional text in quotes!?

Here's the snippet from my AF installer... (Clickteam)

Code: Select all

-auto "#InstallDir#\Panama\terrdata\panama"
If I leave out the " tinstall.exe fails also, but the above works pretty.

HTH!

T_dude,

I checked lstupdate.exe on all three machines I have here, my laptap is very clean and probably the best testbed as I know it doesn't have any VB6 runtime stuff installed at all, and it worked fine on that.

So, short answer, there should be no dependancies at all! :)

All that said, it looks like your problem is fixed now?

I thought of that, too, and will try it. :) It would need to be a single quote ' ' I think, because the double quote is already supposed to take care of that.

As for the lstupdate, I'm not sure what the issue is there. It seems to be inconsistent at this point. We'll see how the ver. 3 installer works.

Hi folks

I've Adapted TAIWAN 0.3 campaigns for being more realistic.

Save0.CAM (Campaign selective 2)
Fictitious conflict US/EUROPE/TAIWAN COALITION VS CHINA

Save1.CAM (Campaign selective 3)
Same conflict without US and Europe.

Squadron numbers (Blue or red)adapted as real as it can be. Lots of planes for variety.
However some China fighters are put on airfields near their orig airfield (Except for the J10) because the theater shows the Province of Fujian whose airfield are not occupied in peace time.
I took the squadrons from GUANGDONG, HUNAN, JIANGXI and ZHEJIANG regions.



Just for pleasure...:wink:

i installed v0.3 on Fresh falcon4 - it still poped out that error message [ no AF or F4 ], i proceeded the install, and set it the current one theater.

when i entered the sim - i can't find taiwan theater- there's no such theater listed in theater menu. what's wrong?

i can check terrain with terrainview, but can not load features.

No prob for me installing V 0.3. Can enter the 3D world.

@ CCC and sherlock : seems it works from both sides. Win or lose conditions have not been changed from 0.3 (for the moment).

About those campaign OF and AF version will be done with their own DB except if someone is working on campaigns....

I have been installing Falcon OF 4.2 and RV 1.0 and I use MultiFalcon to access them without problems. However after installing the Taiwan and Iran theaters, when I am in OF of CTD when I try to change the theaters (any one) or when I am in the active theater and I carry the mission. In RV everything continues usually working.

Thanks for the data, will be added to the next version.
two rough theater icons.. the colors are more saturated.
They look ok, though they really don't look like the "scheme" as the all other theater logos/icons. Is there any chance you could produce same sort of result? Do you remember who made the originals, was it Teddy or someone like that?

I think the originals are default Korea, I think Balkans then PMC stuff like ODS, Europe, Afghanistan and Vietnam. Dunno if I had anything else done.

Did you use TCL scripts or manual work?

It would be nice to concentrate the effort, ie to have me include the stuff in the next release.

Why is it that you have this tone of "damn snake makes incomplete stuff!" :lol:

I mean suggest me some victory conditions (which reguire ground unit movement to capture objects, right?) and I'll add them into the next release.

Umm I dont understand you question... if you think about F4AF which I assume you do, its only playable by F-16s and E-3 AWACS because thats how LP edited the valid-aircraft file.

If you want to fly other aircrafts, you need to use edited validAC.bin file.

And yes the triggers can be made with victory conditions on both sides, so its possible to lose a campaign, not just win or die trying :)

Okay... on fresh falcon4... of what version? or did you mean F4 as FF4? :)

Or is this a bug report that it was stock default Falcon 4 install, installer did give you error but still you were able to continue the install?
i can check terrain with terrainview, but can not load features.
Thats because you dont have the TDF files.
Fafa wrote:except if someone is working on campaigns
Well I made this theater "just for fun" as everyone was bitching about it for so long time and nobody ever created it... so its a hobby theater if you can call it that, but surely I'm interested of developing it further, you guys just need to guide me to the right direction of WHAT to edit. So how about it?

Can you tell me more about this multifalcon?

Use regedit (win start -> run and type regedit) then find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microprose\Falcon\4.0\ and curTheater value. Maybe this is whats bugging in your multifalcon system?

Have you checked theater.lst in the install directory root?

If you're getting an error No AF or F4, then lstupdate is failing and the taiwan entry won't be there.

yes it failed. taiwan entry not in theater.lst. it probably due to new theater folder structure.

Hey Malc- there seems to be an intermittent problem with how NSIS uses your lstupdate. I think I'll try that double quote trick and see if it makes a difference.... Either that, or there's a problem with the script and it carries a null in that variable up to the lstupdate line.

Yes because its not a terrainview TDF file. Theaters\Taiwan\taiwan.tdf file is the theater definition file.
yes it failed. taiwan entry not in theater.lst. it probably due to new theater folder structure.
What in the world are you babbeling about? How would new theater dir structure cause something like that, please.

The problem is that theaters.lst file was not update for one reason or another. Something wrong with the installer I bet, maybe that you're having spaces in the dir name like c:\program files\microprose\ etc?

terrdata\theaterdefinition\korea_2005.tdf
terrdata\theaterdefinition\eurowar.tdf
Theaters\Taiwan\taiwan.tdf

reinstall f4, RV and Taiwan v0.3.

summary of my findings-

1. for those using wide screen 1280x800, redviper exe command should add "-hires"

C:\MicroProse\Falcon4\RedViper.exe -hires

2. lst updater still fails. i tweak it myself and the new theater shows up.

3. new theater icon, taiwan tga, should be 16 bit tga.

4. in the occupation map, there's a layer of korea pennisula picture, tho all taiwan/china airbases are located correctly.

5. in sim, still CTD. i found the TexCompress.exe and run it again, then i can enter the campaign, no problem. it seems texcompress failed at some point of installation.

SM - I'll write up those execwaits with the apostrophes - maybe that will help...

as for Ta Shan Ting.. it's an abandoned short airstrip on small Kimen island, the one at left hand side.. as you can see, no runway noted.

@Fafa - i've checked your new campaigns..yes more realistc squadrons..you may remove most euorpean fighters/attackers out.

-Parasta island airbase > not in mil operation.

- you may add a Kuznestov carrier battle group, and su33. china is about to got some naval flanker on Varyag.

- US carrier groups won't stay in Taiwan strait.. just too dangerous.. the carrier groups will station at NE, E, SE side of Taiwan.

Mhhh ok, I took already info sources from this website but info source also from Air Fan october 2006 dedicated to China Airforce, so some infos about squadron deployments are not the same, and I had to make choices.

For the US/EUROPE Squadron it's just the first campaign, The goal is to fly some occidental aircrafts and for almost falconeers their plane of reference. But the second campaign (third photo on RV and second in OF I think) is only Taiwan VS China.

The CIS Carrier group/SU33 is also put on the campaign but not visible because neutral.

VARYAG (Kutznetsov brother) is in Dalian and not operationnal yet. Rumors say it wil be converted in hotel and not carrier. I must also add Minsk/Kiev (China) and LPD DOKO and LPH OSUMI (Taiwan) but I must request what are you interested in ?

I will give you a list of Tacedit implement in this campaign as soon as possible in order you to tell me what do you whant to keep or leave.

@CCC, FC1 is in DB but not 3DDB (OF and RV) A3D model/lod could be interesting. I Saw on FF lots of Taiwan fighters screenshots, are they available or is there a black project ?

No I mean "hotlink" the images to become visible on the topic, therefore making everyone download 3 x 1.2mb and also the topic is way too wide making it annoying to read.

I mean 1.2mb image size is just ridiculous (for web use), sure you can give the link for it to click if someone chooses to, but to force it on your face is not cool.
