Force planes to spawn

Postby alreadydead » Sun Aug 08, 2004 10:05 am

I've seen a few posts that go like this: 'I've played for a long time, but no new aircraft are avalible.'
If you play for a while and the planes aren't showing up, try this. It works all the time, every time.
  • Open the CFS3 folder, and the campaigns subfolder. It should look like... C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Combat Flight Simulator 3\campaigns
  • Make a copy of "fortress euorpa.xml" to your desktop if you screw up or want to change it back. Don't edit this one.
  • Open "fortress europa.xml" with notepad. The one in the campaign folder, not the desktop.
  • Right in the middle of this file is a list of aircraft and then a date. It's under the heading . Find it.
  • Wherever it says , change that to, say...
  • Overwrite the old file.
  • Start a new campaign. All the aircraft are avalible. You're welcome.
