Hi everyone!
Got a small problem with Wings over Europe.
Basically after installing Nato4 Mod All the weapons except internal guns have misteriously disappeared!

I checked the Object folder and all the data are still there...

Puzzled.
Anyone had this?

Got to reinstall and re-download all the Nato Mods?
Sigh.

Thanks in advance...

Remove your weapondata.dat file from the weapons folder.

Make sure you have the weapons editor and recompile the weapondata.ini. This will create a new weapondata.dat file for you, and this should then show all weapons.

If you go to the Thirdwire homepage, it is a free download from there.

When you install, make sure you run the editor in Windows95 mode. If you don't know how to do this, drop me another line.

Hi Andy,
Ok this is how it went yesterday evening.

Erased the weapondata.dat (actually moved in another safety folder smile

I found in the Weapon folder the weapons editor.
Since double clicking on it yield no result I opened a CMD from windows/run and then started it.
Worked.

From the tool then I was able to load the weapondata.ini

Not really knowing what to do I simply saved and closed the editor.

I was then pretty suprised to find a new weapondata.dat!
But running again the game left me still without any weapon.
Possibly I did something wrong. frown

So... yeah, if you have another hint on how to recompile the file that's just perfect.


^_^ Thanks a lot!

If you go over to the forums at:

http://www.combatace.com

And register, there are full instructions and lists for fault finding with this application. They will be able to tell you much better than I can.
