Happ. HMS Ocean has been thoroughly tested & works fine. I suggest you mail Collin Glendinning. His e-mail is in the Readme.*

*PS. No it's not. Here ya go. collin@thepolymath.freeserve.co.uk
Meanwhile I'll check it out myself.

We would rather you mail one of us instead of posting in the forums. It's usually quicker.

OK. First things first. I downloaded HMS Ocean & installed it to a fresh install of CFS2 following the instructions. It works fine for me.

Make sure it's configured correctly in a folder named  HMS_Ocean50 & pasted to the CFS2\Ships folder. Find mdlnames.txt in the CFS2 root directory, open it in Notepad & add this line at the bottom.

"HMS_Ocean50"=HMS Ocean 1950

Now find descrip.dat in the CFS2\INFO folder, open it in Notepad & add this complete entry at the bottom. (Copy/paste the entries from the Readme or this post.)

# HMS_Ocean50
HMS Ocean 850 ft model 1950 Korea.When selected from the Ship list, you can add waypoints to make this vessel move through the water. When selected from the Infrastructure list, this vessel is just scenery and won't move, but can be damaged and destroyed.

Now fire up the MB & this is what you should get.



PS. The JPEG is just a screenshot. It makes no difference.

Come to think of it my descrip.dat opened automatically in Wordpad. I got no warning. That should be OK. I'm wondering if there's a limit to the data you can add which could cause your problem.

I'm no good with the MB myself. To check it out I quickly added HMS Ocean to a default mission. This is what I got. You have to define at least 2 waypoints for it to work.
