That is a Usio ship.

Whenever you do not have all of the scenery or infrastructure objects installed, that is the type of error you will get.

I would suggest you install all of Usio's ships because the ones I did not use, some of the scenery designers probably did use.

I have 37 of Usio's "JMK" ships in my USAAC install for the Bong and other campaigns.

Do you have it listed in your mdlnames.txt?

No. How do I go about that?

Should it look like this? "JMK_AKAGI"=Aircraft Carrier

I installed the Bong campaign as well, I do not even reach the runway, I got the error message allready when trying to enter a pilot name.I installed the McGuire campaign instead and it operate fantastic, why not Bong? Is the culprit the Bong.cmg.It is an old campaign, so it must have been working in the past why not now ???????????????

Guys,

I will take a look at it this weekend or next week.

I am in my final week of master degree class for the year and haven't time to look into it.

Please be patient until next week.

I will fly the campaign on my computer and see what it needs.

If necessary I will get with Rami and we will get a revised version uploaded.

Devildog,

Forgive me, but I think your better half (and mine, for that matter) may have some objections here.

**Devildog73** · December 18th, 2014, 07:22

A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category CFS 2 Campaigns Add-Ons

Description: This is a replacement of campaign and pilot files for those having problems with the original. I can do nothing about missing scenery files. Even I cannot get the campaign to recognize wrhse0 scenery, even though it is installed in all the right places.

I have flown these on my machine and they work and progress to the next mission just fine.

To check it out, rate it or add comments, visit Bong Two
The comments you make there will appear in the posts below.

Even though I am a theologian, I am not talking in the Bible sense here........

BTW, I just uploaded replacement files for Bong Campaign. Just delete all of the previously installed missions & Bong.cfg in both the CAMPAIGNS and MISSIONS folders.

I also included PILOTS and PILOTLOG folders with appropriate files in them to cure the error reported by Killer Svend.

Let me know if and when you would like me to replace the originals. It might be better to give it a few days and look for any reports.

I agree. Just because they work on my computer doesn't mean they work on everyone else's.

Also, as we collaborate on the MTO again, what do you think about updating the Aces campaigns?

They were only my second try at building and I have learned a lot over the course of the years.

One thing I would hope to do is replace the wrhse0 and pier1 with one of Wolfi's or Xavier's piers and warehouses, to eliminate those continual errors.

Lee,

Oh, absolutely. Now you know why I updated a lot of my stuff from years back.

**Devildog73** · December 18th, 2014, 16:44

John,
I just flew Bong mission 06 completely to the end with no CTD.

I don't know what is causing yours, but it is not the mission.

**Allen** · December 18th, 2014, 17:19

In the main CFS2 folder there is a error log (error.LOG) see if it is made and maybe it may have the cause.

**Blood_Hawk23** · December 18th, 2014, 17:20

make sure you have the Aircraft set correctly. Panel, sound that sort of thing. It could be one of the AI planes.

Quick question... Does it crash while loading the scenery or while in flight? If its while flying, do you think an AI aircraft is spawning in?

It will CTD just when it is loading the scenery.

Ok that will narrow it down a little bit.

-- open the mission 6 .mis file in note pad and scroll down until you get to [unit_type.0].
-- from there look at the aircraft and ships that are being used for that mission.
-- see if any are missing or double check them for missing folders or files.

it might be a bad aircraft.cfg or panel.cfg. it could be a bad sound or panel alias. or a miss directed model name. something that you might normally over look.

the only other thing would be a bad object. anything that is used in that mission will be listed after the unit types.

Thats the best I've got. I hope it helps.
