No Midway to Wake PBY transfer?

I upgraded to 1.60 and to the newest version of CHS on the same day.(The best of both worlds).I use Andrews "extra super-duper with pepperoni map"(with Aden and Panama of course.)
Started a new game and now I cannot transfer Central Pacific PBY's at Midway to Wake on 15Dec41.(Wake is still mine and is also a "Central Pacific" base.When I said I wanted to transfer there,it gave me like 3 options,2 of which were in Alaska (IIRC)..
The 1.60 upgrade warned I might need to do something with that PWHEX file..(Do I need to just remove it from the game??)..Help?

If you have the ModSelect utility in your WitP main folder, then run the utility and select the special CHS map. This will load the correct pwhex.dat file. I will write a more comprehensive guide soon...

Go to AB's website and download LCU movement mod V6.
It's all there, for every map that's out.[;)]

It has intructions too.

What's an "intruction"? Sounds painful...[;)]

Unfortunately that package only has map data files for the official map and Subchaser's map - not my alternative map. To get a copy of the map data file for my alternative maps, you need to grab the map packages from my website and unzip them to extract the appropriate "pwhex.dat" file. If using the extended CHS map, as m10bob is, then you need to grab the pwhex.dat file from the extended map package.
