argh-Vietnam beta 2

[Guest]

Hi
i just downloaded Vietnam beta 2.zip . I think i followed installation instruction correctly but when i fly the terrain still comes up as Korea.
This is how i installed the theatre:
1)copied "korea" from terrdata to C:\MicroProse folder.
2)renamed the copied korea folder to "Vietnam" and placed it in the terrdata folder.
3)backed up campaign/save folder.
4)Unzipped Vietnam beta 2 to the Falcon 4 directory.
5)Clicked on "VietnamRegistry.reg" and clicked on "Yes".
6)Ran TSwitch.exe and selected Vietnam.
7)Ran tinstall.exe and clicked on select then create.

Did i do it right?
If not, please tell me what i did wrong, this is too cool an add-on to miss!
Thanks

Do you have C:\MicroProse\Falcon4\terrdata\Vietnam folder now?

Yep, i have that folder.

Check tswitch again to see if you got Vietnam selected there, other than that I have no idea what might be wrong.

Yep, 'nam is applied there. Btw, when you run tinstall do u have to click select on each of the folders displayed?

In terrain rebuild by tinstall.exe you should select Vietnam of course.

My f4 is at d:\falcon4\ dir so I just run it like:

d:\falcon4\tinstall.exe d:\falcon4\terrdata\Vietnam
