Ai Carriers.. P3D 3.2

[sketchy]

Hello,

Anyone have luck getting this to work?

I am re-installing all my add ons after a re-format and struggling with this one. Aicarriers2 appears to not like the version of Java I installed for it, so I have followed this thread with no luck: http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/ind...c,11293.0.html

Anyone have any suggestions as to where I am going wrong?

Cheers,

Fraser

I haven't tinkered with AI Carriers and P3D, but it seems the later revision that does away with Java is the way to go?

AICarriers with Java might still work in P3Dv3, as long as you install it properly.
But yes, the .NET version of AICarriers will be even easier anyways, because it does not require this or that version of Java to work.
And in both cases, you will need to manually edit the DLL.xml to add the AICarriers entries in it.

Also, and this is very important, if you have updated your P3Dv3.1 to v3.2 using only the client update, then AICarriers will not work... not until you also update the "content" part of P3D.
If you have a complete fresh install of P3D v3.2 though, you're good to go.

The .net version is the way to go.
I didn't bother adding an entry to the EXE.xml, as it's not a program I use every time I fly. I just run the EXE manually after starting P3d if I fancy doing carrier ops. Works fine.

Thanks Chaps,

Well success and then well... failure I guess.

I am using the .Net version and added the ai carriers entry to the .dll file but first it didn't work, then "add ons" appeared in my task bar in P3d... then on restarting again it does not show.

Also trying to click the Exe file to manually start it once P3D is running does not do anything, I am a little clueless as to why it worked then suddenly stopped lol.

I'll keep trying! (Also Daube I am working with a fresh install of 3.2 not an upgrade from 3.1).

Cheers,

Fras, check you added it to exe.xml not dll.xml. The add ons menu might have been triggered by something else, I'm sure I saw it appear once when I was over but I can't remember what for.
