ShrikeHawk Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 I just now installed the Okinawa/Japan terrain (which looks terrific BTW). Ufortunately, I don't get to land on a carrier when I return home. This is working just fine in the Philippines terrain in the same install. So where are the carriers? - I updated it with SF2:NA update. - I installed the PTO Naval ships pak - I updated _targets.ini and _types.ini to reflect the carriers I have installed - I'm flying naval aircraft, Hellcat and Corsair What am I missing that prevents Carriers from showing up in Single Missions?

+Wrench Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 1st off, WHICH Okinawa terrain? Did you build your PTO mods folder FROM the SF2NA exe? What does the top section of the Okinawa.ini look like? (copy/paste it in your response) Does the terrain folder have the proper Okinawa_water.bmp, with the 2 colored "CV zones"? (there should be 4, 3 friendly, 1 enemy off the coast of Shikoku) Cause mine works fine If you had to add various CVs and other ships, I'm reasonably certain you aren't using the latest version, cause I added them (types ini should have a date of 9/1/2012) Quote

+Wrench Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 (edited) you're missing the critical statement Add this below the Lat/Long lines NavalMap=TRUE that should make it work Edited June 13, 2014 by Wrench Quote
ShrikeHawk Posted June 13, 2014 Author Posted June 13, 2014 Okay, that's much better. I'm automatically assigned to a carrier now. Only trouble is, the carriers are embedded within an island! How to fix that? Quote
+Wrench Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 (edited) opps! forgot to tell you to add this line WaterMap=Okinawa_Water.bmp put that with the NavalMap statement my bad!! otherwise it don't know where to put the boat it should look like this when done: [Terrain]TerrainFullName=Okinawa/JapanDataFile=Okinawa_data.INITargetFile=Okinawa_targets.INITargetTypeFile=Okinawa_types.INIMovementFile=Okinawa_movement.ININationsFile=Okinawa_nations.INIBriefingText=Okinawa_briefing.INIDogfightFile=Okinawa_dogfight.INIDogfightOnly=FALSE//CatFile=..\Desert\Desert.catCatFile=..\GermanyCE\GermanyCE.cat//CatFile=..\VietnamSEA\VietnamSEA.catLongitude=131Latitude=31NavalMap=TRUEWaterMap=Okinawa_Water.bmpLimitedNations=TRUE Edited June 13, 2014 by Wrench Quote
ShrikeHawk Posted June 14, 2014 Author Posted June 14, 2014 That's fixed it. It's working great now. Thank you! Quote
