No Super Carrier?

[jcagle]

Hello,

 

I pre-ordered the Super Carrier and installed it close to the initial release, but life events meant that I have not had a chance to fly until today. However, for some reason the carrier appears to be absent from the simulator. Whenever I start a flight, the carrier and any associated deck aircraft are simply not there. Usually all I find is some poor SH-60 flying by itself in the middle of the ocean.

 

 

Here are a few things I have tried:

 

- From DCS installer, update to latest Beta and run a repair install

 

- From DCS module manager, delete and then re-install Supercarrier

 

- Load an Instant Action (x3 files)

 

- Use mission editor to create a flight. CVN-71 is a unit to add, but things like 'TACAN' are missing are not auto-generated and are missing from the options. It is also completely absent from the map when I load.

 

- When I look in my main DCS directory, the is a Supercarrier directory in DCS World/Mods/Tech/Supercarrier.

 

The Supercarrier directory has 51 files and is 295 MB in size, which seems a little light for an add-on of this complexity.

 

E.g. The CVN-74 directory in CoreMods has 50 files and is 285 MB in size.

 

 

 

Help would be appreciated

Most of the files are stored in CoreMods/Tech/USS_Nimitz which is 2.64GB and 738 files.

 

I assume you have uninstalled any mods you may have. And just to clarify, you can place it and modify it in the mission editor, but the actual 3d model doesnt appear ingame?

Okay, on the way to finding the problem.

 

- Confirmed that the files in CoreMods/Tech/USS-Nimitz are 2.6 GB

 

- I have some mods in the Saved Games directory and wiping that seems to have fixed the issue

 

Thanks for your help!
