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!
