Gibsonm Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 Good afternoon, I've just noticed this: As far as I can tell there is no real difference between these. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jartsev Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 Really weird; cannot reproduce with default installation. By any chance, do you have BRDM-2AT hotfix applied? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jartsev Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 very likely you have both original brdm-2AT.mrf and its version containing fix both in a same folder. E.g. possibly original file was not overwritten and new file was just inserted as a copy (guess under name brdm-2AT - Copy.mrf ). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Solution Volcano Posted September 16 Moderators Solution Share Posted September 16 My guess (because I have done this before myself) is that you might have backed up the old BRDM-AT MRF file before installing that patched one (I posted in the support forum), by renaming the old BRDM-AT MRF file. If true, it will end up creating two vehicle entries like that. If you want to back up the old fire, then ZIP or RAR it instead, but any renamed MRFs will be treated as separate actors (SB doesn't know any better, as it just load the the files that are there). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically I need to keep the old version somewhere else (I was keeping it as part of the roll back plan - if required)? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically I need to keep the old version somewhere else (I was keeping it as part of the roll back plan - if required)? You can keep the old file if you like, but you have to ZIP or RAR the file and then delete that MRF file so it isn't present in that folder. Or you can just copy it out of there into some other place. Any MRF file will be loaded as a separate vehicle actor so, essentially, you have to remove it from the folder or else you will get what you have there - two versions of the vehicle loading. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Volcano Posted September 16 Moderators Share Posted September 16 Ah, OK, I see I typed that response as you were making the next comment. Looks like that fixed it. 👍 I will keep my previous comment for anyone else that might have the same issue in the future. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
