Hello guys,
Lost tracers from AvHistory_gr_gun_Mg_15_hand_held and AvHistory_gr_gun_MG_FF when uploding an A/C from ETO to BoB. Cheked the gun and weapon files also the effects.xml and sounds.xml;everything matches but still no tracers. What helse should I check ?

Hi gosd,

It may be missing a texture from the CFS3 ETO Expansion_1-40\effects\fxtextures folder. and you would need to put the effects.xml file from ETO into your BoB install. just back up your BoB effect.xml file first.

The BoB addon was built around stock weapons etc if your taking planes from ETO they maybe calling on either AvHistory weapons or ETO weapons.

open the effects folder in both games and copy over the dr_ named files to your BoB install also check the files with texture in their name and copy over any that arnt in your BoB install.

It wont hurt your BoB install to have a few files in there that arnt called for, just take up a bit of space. infact you could just remove the fxtexures folder from BoB and replace it with the one from ETO.

and you will need to bring over the weapons and guns folder as well. the folders from ETO have all the stuff the BoB folders have, but with all the extras as well.

and the sounds.xml would need to be brought over.

and the pylons folder, a lot of new pylons in ETO for the avhistry weapons and new ETO weapons, again nothing in the BoB folder thats not in the ETO pylons folder.

just remeber to back everything up first, in case you want to go back.


regards Rob.
