KTOFubar- No USS San Juancito - Dietz - 05.08.2009

I'm giving this campaign one last try- as mentioned in other posts ,the Carrier refuses to show up & all my guys start or end in the drink.I've gone through the folder & realized that somehow the carrier ,the USS San Juancito, simply isn't getting into the campaign.I've chacked - it is in the Ships Pack folder,where I think it belongs,& I believe I've added what I need to the the ships.ini file,but still no joy.
I do have in Mods another folder simply titled "Ships" with a couple of odds & ends in it...should I be doing anything with this...other than perhaps putting its contents into the ships pack folder?
What I'd really like to do is get theSan Juancito out of whatever dry dock she's in!

Dietz, I think the problem must lie with the ship pack2 install.( Edit:Or that other ship folder, I just noticed the other Ships folder comment, have you tried to disable it with a minus sign?
There may be a conflict if the game is reading things from that folder before it reads the Ship Pack folder.)

You have installed UI 1.1, right?
You have installed ShipPack2 and you have a ShipPack folder inside of your MODS folder, right?
You have put all the entries from the "AddToIni" folder into their proper STD locations, right?

I have found that most of my problems with things not working is usually due to some simple oversight on my part.

The file placement in the ShipPack2 readme can be confusing.

I would suggest checking that the chief, ships, stationary and technics entries got into the STD/com/maddox/il2/objects folder properly and make sure the technics.properties entry got into the STD/i18 folder.

Open the game, click on Full Mission Builder then View then object.
A window opens with Aircraft as the first entry.
Click on the triangle at the right and the window opens other options to view.
There should be an entry for "Ship Pack" between "Ship" and "Artillery".
The USS San Juancito is about 30 entries down.

The key here is that the Ship Pack shows as a seperate entry in the FMB, if it does not something was missed in the install process.

This stuff can really get frustrating, I hope you can get this working.
