Ai Carriers problem

[Nike619]

Hey guys, 2nd post here is a big question.

I have recently re-installed FSX on the new Pc and after that, all my Aircraft and then Ai Carriers.

On my old Pc I followed the same steps ( Same OS ect, Just more RAM ) and Ai Carriers worked fine.

Now though, I have tried reinstalling it 3 or 4 times, Clearing the registry and folders manually between installs. I have tried the Ip switch to no avail. I have even erased the FSX config in hopes of it rewriting a value. And after all of that it still does not show up in the Addons menu, Or even after pressing Shit+J

With that being said, any ideas?

I just wanna take off from a carrier someday before I die

I've just encountered this problem as well.  :-?

Is AI carriers v2,  a one time only install?

Everything worked perfectly, then I did a reinstall, and now nothing.

can you land on the carriers spawned by ai carriers 2?

When it worked I could.

Now, just as the original poster stated, the menu option to even get them to appear is gone.

It's as though it's not even installed anymore.  :-?

It worked perfectly, until I did a reinstall of FSX & Aicarriers2.

Exactly, You can land and shoot from the deck as well.

And Shane, I have the exact same problem you do. I Emailed Lamont about it last, I will post my findings when I get an email back

Well looks like another Fantastic! addon has lost its support, Been two days now and no reply from Mr.Clark.

I really wish I could figure this out, I have checked my hosts files. Done everything in the book. I am completly at a loss for words right now, I just went and bought EA6B's, F-14's and A-6's.

Only to not be able to use them 

[ShaneG_old]

I Figured it out!

[Nike619]

I have even tried that to no avail.

Edit: Mine already contained the file in the XML.  So I re-edited it..Also no Avail

[ShaneG_old]

I forgot to mention this above, so I will add it after this post,

but on this line here, I changed the FALSE to TRUE: 

[glow=yellow,2,300]True[/glow]


Give that a try and let me know.

It works perfectly for me now, and that is the ONLY thing I've done.

[Nike619]

Editing it now, Shane if this works. I will personally mail you my soul. lol

Edit. Not a thing in the addon menu but FSUPIC

Yes, I'm running the Nimitz, plus several other FSX ships, and using them successfully with aicarriers.


In your  FSX/scenery/world/scenery folder, is there a file called trafficCarriers.bgl?

And have you tried moving the AICarriers folder  into the main FSX folder?

Not sure why that would make a difference, but that's where mine currently is.
If you try that, don't forget to change the path in your EXE.xml file. 

Aside from those two things, I don't see what would be different, other than that I don't have any other entries in my exe.xml like you do.

I was just comparing our exe.xml files, and just for the sake of trying it,

In the very fist time that this line appears in yours, the one before your REX entry:

False

Try changing it to True and see what happens.

If it doesn't work, you can always change it back.
