Hi I was just wondering if someone was working on the Graf Zepplin Aircraft Carrier.

And if anyone has thought about doing its sister ship, Flugzeugtr

The strange parts in this is, though we have Graf Zeppelin in the ship pack mod, still we don't even have the Ju-87C1 or the Bf-109 naval versions that were supposed to operate on the Graf Zeppelin. :-?

Did you read the posts here?

I know I'm not and I searched Graf Zepplin and it came up with nothing.

There was also the Seydlitz, planned to be converted from Hipper Class hull, to make a light carrier.

Logical first step though would be for someone to make a conventional Hipper Class cruiser. The ships which were actually operational should take priority over those that never made it to sea. Plenty of those to be done.

The Hipper Class also served in the Soviet Black Sea Fleet, Petropavlovsk (ex Lutzow). Sold to the Russians by Germany during the time of cooperation. So a Hipper would be useful for all sorts of reasons.

PS Search function only works if you use the same spelling as the post you are searching for (Graf Zeppelin) missing e in this case. It is generally not very useful telling people to "use the search function" If you dont want to help then don't post. Otherwise take the time to give them the link they are looking for :roll:

Incidentally, there is no Graf Zeppelin in the ShipPack. What is provided is a Ship Slot named Graf Zeppelin filled with a model of HMS Illustrious with a swastika painted on it. The real GZ looked totally different. Its a useful placeholder, but no more.

The installation of ShipPack was a little tricky but loads of people installed it successfully. Just more ini and properties files to edit and potential clashes with other mods, duplicate files and things. Now that its included in HSFX this is no longer an issue.

Is this why in FMB I cannot successfully place any aircraft on the 'Graf Zeppelin'???? ....although I can use normal procedures to place aircraft on any other Carriers, Allied or Axis.

No. The GZ works fine in my installation.

Odd! In my HSFX 4.11 (which includes the Shippack), aircraft cannot be placed on the Graf Z, nor on the Hiryu...another ship in the shippack. I've not tried otHEr carriers in the shippack, but I suspect the same result. In my testing, I lined up abreastt the Akagi, Saratoga, Illustrious (all original carriers in IL2/1946), alongside the Hiryu and Graf Z(both shipack carriers). The former allowed acft placement on deck, the latter two did not. Did HSFX improperly incorporate/install some aspect of the Shippack causing this???

I am using HSFX 4.1, not 4.11 -- just never got around to updating.
In JSGME I have Zuti MDS 1.13 enabled, nothing else.
Any other mods are in the MODS folder.

I suspect you have a conflicting mod somewhere.

Have you tried disabling all mods except for the standard HSFX pack?
