I changed the start date of the Kitty Hawk to 1950 and saved it. Should that not allow it to begin service in the Korean War? What I did was to put the CV-63 bits in the Objects folder. I then put them all in the GroundObjects folder too. And I put them in a folder in Ground objects named CV-63, and also in another called CVA-63. I thought it best to cover all bases. I think using Essex Class would be a splendid idea. I suppose the simple data ini edit is to change the start date to 1950 is it? However, if I can't get a 1950 start date Kitty Hawk to show up in Korea, then I'm not going to get a 1950 start date Essex in either. I could go the SF2 route, but Andy says he's got carriers in Korea in SF1, so I really need to find out how he did it. In any case, does SF2 work on WinXP? Thank you.

I found the 27 CV63 objects and extracted them to the SFG (patched to 2008) OBJECTS folder. SUCCESS. I don't have a DESERT Carrier Campaign, so if I put the Carrier in the Desert Terrain, I wondered how I could find it. However, I do have a Korea Carrier Campaign (allegedly) so I decide to follow the instructions using Korea instead of Desert. The Korea Data ini already has a CarrierUnit001, so I changed it to be a CV-63 carrier as per instructions. However, I left the base station as TaskForce 77, because he already has that in Korea. There were several PLAYER UNITS in that file, supposedly carrier based, and I picked an F9F-5 Panther AirUnit which was already at BaseArea=TaskForce 77, and made sure CarrierNumber was 63. I then opened Korea_Nations.ini and under [Theatre], after the other two entries, I added Location003=TaskForce 77 I then went to Korea targets ini, where there was already an entry for TaskForce 77, and I changed its location to 3 So, if in Korea Data, I have a Carrier CV-63 at Base Station=TaskForce77; a Panther Air unit assigned to BaseArea=TaskForce 77, Carrier 63; a notation in Korea Nations that Location003=TaskForce 77; and an entry in Korea Targets ini that says TaskForce 77 is at location 3; then I surely have all my ducks in a row. Unfortunately, when I go into the Korea Campaign, choose Navy, and try any of the F9F-5 squadrons, I do not see a Carrier. I am wondering if the weak link is the 27 CV63 files that should be somewhere other than in OBJECTS. Should they for instance be in a folder marked CV-63, in GroundObjects, or somewhere else. If it's not impertiment to ask, where do you keep yours? Thanks for helping me

Thank you. I'm printing out your instructions and will get on with it ultra fast.

I have this working in SFG with the 2008 patch. The problem is that the Panther Campaign doesn't work because there is no Aircraft Carrier, and the aircraft is just floating on the water. Could someone tell me what the file name of the Aircraft Carrier is, and whether it should be in or outside the Ground Objects folder. Same question goes for the Ground Objects data file. The readme says just put it in the Objects Folder, and I have, but no Carrier shows up. Maybe I just have the files in the wrong place.
