Korean Map on the ODS Ground?

Post by fighterfalcon »

I installed the ODS campaign and the first time I played it the map was only the Desert Storm one.
I went into the f4patch thingy to see if there were any patches I forgot to install. But ODS said it wasnt applied. But I had applied it when I installed it. When I tried to apply it and update the applied patches it says it was missing the: DesStorm.wch file. I found it in another folder and copied it into the folder it was looking for it in. But now when I go into the campaign I get the Korean map over the Iraqi map, and all the campaigns are default to Korea.
I tried to reinstall the ODS, but when I try to revert to Korea so I can reinstall ODS it can't find terrain.l2 file. But that file is in the folder.

What should I do so that everything is correct?

It's a problem with the .wch files. These files are sometimes switched between the different theatres folders in the Falcon4.xx/campaign folder. Try to switch back these files (but make a backup copy before).

It is the whole campaign\DesStorm or campaign\save dir that is wrong.

When ODS is installed, you should see campaign\save dir with files:

DesStorm.idx
DesStorm.pak
DesStorm.THR
DesStorm.wch

If not, it is not correctly applied. If you KNOW you have applied it from F4Patch and you see those files. Check out campaign\DesStorm dir, if there are the Korean training missions, then just switch the dirs. rename DesStorm to save and save to DesStorm.
