Planes on aircraft carrier deck

[swell 0]

Hi,

 

Anyone knows why in (single missions) some terrains, aircraft show on carrier deck and in other terrains, don't??? 

 

Thanks to all

Those terrains that have aircraft show up on them, have been properly configured, and by that, I mean that they have the correct statement in the terrain.ini file (which is NavalMap=TRUE ), and proper, 256-color, water maps with carrier areas denoted on them.

the particular terrain. ini must have the naval force mentioned.

Hi and thanks for your answers

 

I have tested all your advices...but no planes on deck :(

 

I tested:

 

"In the terrain.ini file (which is NavalMap=TRUE ), and proper, 256-color, water maps with carrier areas denoted on them"

"the particular terrain. ini must have the naval force mentioned."

"In the the terrain_Nations.ini, add the particular naval force you want. e.g; FriendlyNation004=USN"

"Another thin I noticed was in SF2NA would be make sure the aircraft you use is the same nation as the Carrier"

 

Terrains tested with no success:

NewGuinea

Phillipines

Midway (RisingSun)

Sollomons (RisingSun)

 

The only that works is:

Open Ocean Map by JonathanRL

 

Any more Help?

 

Thanks

New Guinea doesn't use carriers -- this is correct

 

which phillipines? the latest ww2 44 version sure does.

 

Rising Sun stuff we can't help ya with. You'd need to build the correct _water.bmps, and add the CV Zones, and the main ini editing of course

I found it : ) !!!!

 

Missions date was the problem...I was using an specific WW2 install but mission builder always gives 1960 date...once I  change manually mission date to 1942, I began to have populated decks!!!

 

Of course only after I have used all your advice...step by step you get there!!

 

Thanks to all

as per

you shouldn't ever have to touch the date in a mission, if this is correct.
