Merzifon AB with FC2

[Vekkinho]

Hi folks,

 

most of you propably remember 666th Birdy's Merzifon AB Mod. Birdy changed the location of fictional Razdolnoye airfield as it does not exist IRL to Northern Turkey at coordinates of RL Merzifon AB.

 

I wish to do the same with Novorossiysk as it exists no more IRL. It was abandoned during early '90 (after USSR split) and is now turned to a populated area with modern buildings on the outskirts of Novorossiysk.

 

So my idea was to change the coordinates of Novorossiysk in FC2 map. I'd move it to Turkey to serve as Merzifon AB.

 

What I'm having troube is locating files I need to edit. I managed to find Novorossiysk.rn file located in LockOn Flaming Cliffs 2\Bazar\Terrain\Vpp but can't really find any coordinates to edit in order to move it to location of Merzifon.

 

Did anyone of You consider doing something like this and have you had any success?

 

Thanks!

I guess db_airports.lua in scripts/database folder.

Yes man!

 

Now I'm getting busy looking for a proper value to place it where I want it!

Look at the values in the first Merzifon mod

I think it not comparable, first MErzifon mod was made for FC1.12a and FC1.12a used different LAT/LONG values (IIRC). However, I'll check to be sure but can promise a thing!

 

Thanks!

Yeah it's pretty complex, I managed to move it to a Merzifon coordinates (after 50-60 edits) but ILS support is a no go! :cry:

You will need to change the beacon position too.
