PH unable to load trasnports. Catalinas unable to transfer? (CHS 2)

[RAM]

Hi there...

I'm stuck with a problem. in fact two. They happened after installing CHS 2.


1- ships don't load anything but supplies at Pearl Harbor. All other options are greyed out.I've read in the general forum that this could be map-related. I've got AB's 6.2 Extended map.


2- CAtalinas at Pearl Harbor don't get correct transfer locations. They get only four options available:

-Sydney Island
-Umnak Island
-Port Alice
-Dutch Harbor

I've been forced to rebase some B-17s to Palmyra and Johnston to do some naval searches because Catalinas will simply refuse to go there (Tried the "click on map" option, didn't work either).

I tried changing the HQ of one of the PBY squadrons to see what was going on. Nothing changes, same problem remains.


This is just me?...


Thanks in advance.

This is in the FAQ:

13 I installed the map, but when I try to load troops at a port, I can only load supplies. Why?

It is probably because you have the wrong map data file (pwhex.dat) loaded. Verify that you are using the correct map data file (supplied with the map package). This can be done by using the '1', 'F6' and 'R' keys, to show terrain, hexsides and transport links respectively, and compare the data to the map graphics - they should all match.

I am not sure about the Catalinas, but it could be another symptom of the same problem (map issue).

Hi andy...

yes, I took a look at the FAQ, but it didn't help me that much at the moment...I thought everything was at it's place, but turns out that the pwhex.dat had to be copied to the War in the pacific folder, not at the art folder ...

copied the file into the correct folder, and everythign now works just fine. Including catalinas, yep .
