oh, okay, thanks - i know i had seen them before in one of my installs, but as i haven't actually used DBW for some time now, i forgot where that was.
it would be nice if there was a stand-alone install available for Modact users....
i can but hope... :D

The car and the truck are here : https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,47004.0.html.

For the 2 tanks, I do not know... maybe we could replace them by some existing in WAW ? that sounds logical !

For the tanks, it is possible they are here : https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,12252.msg129379.html#msg129379.

Or someone equipped with sfs Extractor can extract them from the DBW files ?

okay, so i tried adding these extra columns in my MA530 install, and i got a 70% ctd that i didn't quite understand -
until i had a closer look at the actual entry for the Autoblinda_41 compared to the entry for it provided in the extra columns here, then i found the following -
my chief entries for the Autoblinda are as follows:

Autoblinda_41          ai.ground.ChiefGround 2 icons/car.mat

and

[Vehicles.Autoblinda_41]
 com.maddox.il2.objects.vehicles.tanks.Tank$Autoblinda_41

the entries that call the Autoblinda_41 provided here in this thread, call for it as follows:

[Vehicles.Autoblinda_41]
 com.maddox.il2.objects.vehicles.tanks.Tank411$Autoblinda_41

the 411 highlighted in red was the cause of my 70% ctd.
simply removed it from the entry, so it reads as my first entry:

[Vehicles.Autoblinda_41]
 com.maddox.il2.objects.vehicles.tanks.Tank$Autoblinda_41

make this same edit for all instances of the Autoblinda_41 in these extra columns, for your MA530 game, and you should be able to use the new columns ;)

I did not know the entry was different for MA530. Apparently, it has been changed for CUP/WAW...

So... we may now ask Monty to add these 2 vehicles pack in CUP, and the missing column I mentioned !

Thanks Gaston great job.   ;D For others who may not appreciate, this is not a fault with WAW; Gaston has retro-fitted the chiefs.ini to fit earlier modified campaign material.  This will facillitate easier conversion of older material.  I hope this also means you are getting some FMB time in there my friend!  8)

Will this be included in the next WAW update? Missing columns is one of the most common errors I have in trying to retrofit campaigns built off of DBW/HSFX and older installs.

Could this be the problem that I have been having whereby the ."Vehicles, German Columns" do not fire back from their protection vehicles within the coluimns.
See My... https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,50326.0.htm

I only do flying via QMB and the CUP QMBProCombo v4122 and edit the Armor or Scramble scenarios but have found that those CUP missions that the moving vehicles in them or added by me do not fire at my aircraft anymore...

This is a different problem but I can confirm your issue and posted a reply in the other thread. If it isn't spotted by Monty in a day or two we can ask a mod to move your thread to the CUP tech help forum as it may be a general CUP issue.
