Vekkinho Posted June 21, 2010 Posted June 21, 2010 (edited) Hi all, I just downloaded version of Gys' F-15C 3D model for FC1.12. It's a ModMan pack but I'd like to manually edit my active MEInit with Gys F-15C lines to make it compatible with 3GO Su-27 and other mods and models I use. So could anyone point out all the neccesarry changes I should enter to MEInit? I have already installed Eagle, Hog and Flanker mod for FC2.0 but I still like playing FC1.12 so I'd like to use both Eagle and Flanker models with it too. Thanks all!

revalence Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 In my FC 1.12, I installed the mods in this order: 3Go Su-27, Simmod A-10, and finally GYS F-15C, all in Modman. For some reason, the MEinit didn't intersect and the mods worked perfectly fine. Another way, if the Su-27 turns white with no CDDS files, or the A-10's pylons are incorrectly placed, you could installed the GYS first, then 3GO Su-27, and then SIMMOD A-10A. Good Luck! P.S. If those don't work, I would go with Michelange's way, it's guaranteed to work. -Andrew (Revalence) 1
Vekkinho Posted July 9, 2010 Author Posted July 9, 2010 Yes, I just installed with ModMan over everything I had installed, it warned me of MEInit overwrite but as I've backed it up previously I proceeded with install. I 've found no 3GO Flanker / Gys F-15C / SimMod A-10A conflicts in FC1.12 and FC2.0 so far, all other mods work just as good and it's been almost 10 days of checking for errors. Too bad for F-15C squadrons being inactivated within US lately, it sure is a helluva fighter! Thanks all! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
