Guys I figured 50% of this issue out. I changed ship classes to Battleship from Cruiser. The strike single missions that auto generate are now pointing to land based targets but single mission editor still crashes when selecting the flight to change the target. Only on this map does the CTD occur.

Hi, I'm getting a crash to desktop when using the single mission editor. If I select the player flight, no matter what, it immediately crashes. What would cause this? The terrain is Formosa WW2. When automatically generating a single mission, it only targets a single ship too that appears to be underway on land! Thanks in advance.

Yep

I basically just grabbed a ship names ini from another download and populated accordingly for all carrier numbers and names. Even put the dates in when they were sunk (St. Lo off Samar due to IJN pilot rage quitting his miserable life)

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.

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

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

Hey guys, I download Rising Sun several years ago for my full merged SF2. I never got the chance to install it until now. Unfortunately, the YAP carriers, using Lexington as an example do not work in single missions. I checked the data ini and noticed there is no string showing TRUE for an aircraft carrier. Is this the reason why?

What's a good Terrain Editor out there so I can take a stab at it?

Okay good to know. I can use mission editor to remediate but it just gets annoying after a while.

Hi, My carrier and amphibious task forces are spawning on land in the desert storm map. I believe it has to do with the coordinates of these within the targets file and want to fix myself. However, I don't have a terrain editor to make these fixes. Not sure if the map was updated, but I cannot download. Rather, I'd like to fix the coordinates myself in the INI. Can someone please assist in providing a good coordinate for the task forces to start on water and not sail feet dry? Thanks,

Hi, My cockpit in the B-66B doesn't look right. Almost like it's a clipping issue for the pillars. Any idea how to fix?

This worked perfectly. Went from an old lady to a 50 year old cougar with the libido of a bunny in the spring. Thanks!

Have an old paperback that said the F4F4 had a better roll rate than the Zero. Climb rate was pathetic (fact too). However when the FM-2 came out, it's reduced weight and power contributed to improvements in both, although no exact measurement was provided. May have been more subject from the POV of the author, but I would assume a 10% improvement (more Conservative side.)

I have an FM-2 Wildcat that seems to rollover slower than a 90 year old out of bed for her daily medicine. How do I bump it up slightly? Thanks!
