Thanks for the update. What specific INI did you update?

you really like that bird dont you? it certainly is better than the rainbow tail stripe they went to next ----------------------------- when you gotta blow something up in Kansas by 0830, by gotta be at an airshow by 1100

off to London...

Found the issue. An INI file for ship names must be present for them to show in single mission. I created it for the CVEs and now there's so many missions starting with CVEs I had to dial down the availability. Thanks for everyone's responses.

Si quaeris peninsulam amoenam circaspice!

nice historically wrong in three ways and the reason im neck deep in Hog serials now but still a nice shot mando screenie, or boss's day at the beach

Yes definitely marked true for naval map. In using the Leyte Gulf terrain, all other carriers (Essex and Independence class) show. Casablanca class carriers from the Rising Sun pack do not. I downloaded everything again last night from YAP for Phase 2. I added the lines above to the data INI, changed the availability to VERY_COMMON and no luck. [MissionData] NationName=USN ServiceStartYear=1942 ServiceEndYear=1945 GroundObjectRole=WARSHIP Availability=VERY_COMMON FormationSizeBase=1 FormationSizeVariation=0 Exported=FALSE WarshipClass=AIRCRAFT_CARRIER CarrierBaseSize=SMALL CarrierNumSquadrons=2

I'm pretty sure that you can use it with any fighters, just as long as you do the ini right.

Dang

Great job, keep it going!

I guess I got some from Bobrock (original creator of the Trojan) Will have a look.

Nicely Done!!!

It's not the vehicle --- have you looked at (or into) the terrain you're using??? Does it have NavalMap=TRUE in it's ini? Does it have the correct _water.bmp with the properly colored "CV Zones"?? Otherwise, single missions with carriers ain't gonna happen.

can we use it with any aircraft or only with NATO fighters

Going to try adding this and see if it makes a difference: WarshipClass=AIRCRAFT_CARRIER CarrierBaseSize=MEDIUM CarrierNumSquadrons=6

The model required by the poster refers to a 3D model, not a plastic model

Many of these are Matchbox models, which have a history of forty years

Thank you！
