    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

I have these carriers and wanted to add an airwing to one of these. You can download these airwings when you install the carriers. I was expecting to see a filled deck, but it turns out the planes are not visible? I'm not unfamiliar with AiCarriers and I have set up everything by the book, but alas: no cigar!
Does anyone in the forum have a similar experience?

:dizzy:

Cees, I added your cfg entries to my AICarriers cfg except I flagged the formations as "CIMOGT" to distinguish them from the other Essex boats in my fleet. Flew past each ship and my results were same as yours: no aircraft. Tow tractors, the "Tilly" crane, guys standing around, but no jets. :banghead:

Edit: I looked at the .pdf file (see attached) that came with the download and apparently there is a gauge that you have to install in the panel.cfg file of whatever aircraft you are using with the CIMOGT carriers. This gauge brings up a control panel where you can select the lighting, animations, and deck configuration. I'm too tired to try it right now but I think that gauge will fix the missing aircraft and also enable the other features.

I will try the panel installation later tonight. Looks like you already have it sorted out. :encouragement:

Update: Works great!
