Changing a/c type
-
Thx, again, Falcas. So, the question becomes, how do I fix that? Or rather, can I fix it?
If you have BfB installed and actively selected in BMS, MC will ask you to which theater the file belongs.
Balkans or BfB. Make sure you choose the correct one and it should load the correct DB.Gr Falcas

@Cloud:
It’s not the DB that is the issue, it the campaign files!

True, but it doesn’t help if you work with a different DB which does not belong to the theater you are working with

Good Day, Falcas,
My MC is configured…File Name-c:\Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\data\add on Battle for Balkans\standalone\campaign\autosave.cam
Database location-…\data\Add on Balkans\terrdata\objects. This is what I’m questioning, and don’t know how to change.
Yes, I do have BfB installed. Your statement about the the campaign that’s actively selected raises an interesting point. You see, BfB has it’s own Launcher. So, you don’t enter it via the regular 4.33U1 Launcher. When I go into the U1 Launcher, my selected Theater is Add On Balkan, and BfB is not on the theater list.
One more thing. In MC, under the map, campaign, etc. tabs there’s a Theater field where you can type in the name. It was Balkans. As an experiment, I changed it to Battle for Balkans, applied, then saved it, and it make BMS ctd. I put it back to Balkans and BMS is running again. -

Which launcher you use, doesn’t matter, except maybe if the BfB launcher starts to copy files.
As soon as a you change from one theater to another, this is written in the registry.
This is how BMS and MC knows which theater is the active theater.
If the would do a good job and do the naming all the way to the end, everything would work.Gr Falcas

Thx, Falcas. Would this also explain why the Enterprise CVBG decided to move itself from south of Italy to off the west coast? Thar was a bit strange.
The good news is, I’ve got MC(and WDP) to do what I needed it to do.
