I just installed PP6.0 in the recommended order. In the Read Me, it lists a number of vehicles that are part of PP6.0:

akagi.sm,
Akizuki.sm,
ArkRoyal.sm,
b29.sm,
bigcarrier.sm,
carrier.sm,
crates1.sm,
crates2.sm,
crates3.sm,
crates4.sm,
crates5.sm,
crates6.sm,
farmitem.sm,
Fueltanks.sm,
gphangar.sm,
klaxon.sm,
me163.sm,
mk6.sm,
newak.sm,
racepylon.sm,
Stuka.sm,
tent.sm,
tent12x18.sm,
tent17x17.sm,
tent25x100.sm,
V1.sm,
v1rail.sm,
v2.sm,
Yamato.sm,
zepplin.sm,

However, I can't find a one of these vehicles nowhere in the Fighter Squadron directory. Am I missing something?

The install was a fresh one, after deleting and removing everything from the old Fighter Squadron directory. Are they hidden files or were they just not included in PP6.0? Thanks for any help.

P.S. Nat mentions in a previous thread that the Mk 6 landing craft should be replaced by the one at his site as the one included in PP6.0 is invulnerable and not scaled properly. I am just guessing here, but should it go in the Vehicles directory?

Hey Gambler, I think you'll find install instructions on my site, but basicaly yes, it goes in the vehivles folder.

The reason you can't see any of the vehicles anymore is because they are now contained within a par file and no longer need to be in the folder itself, if you put any vehicles in the folder, they will appear inplace of the plane pack version.. meaning, if you install my updated landing craft, you will see that one in the game instead of the one in the plane pack.

Hope this helps

Everything in Plane Pack 6 in compressed in a few *.PAR files. The only directories created by Plane Pack are those in the aircraft folder and the Training folder just incase you want to add your own sounds, skins or missions. (The PP60 Readme folder is also created)

Yes Nats landing craft needs to be unziped in the Vehicles folder.

Open up the Mission Editor and click on the Tank icon. A dropdown list with all of those ground objects show up there. You cant see the objects in your directory because they are packed up in a Parfile.

That's what I was thinking after the post, that they were contained in a .par file. Being new to SDOE, I'm not real familiar with the game structure.

Thanks for the quick replies. And great job to all involved with PP6.0.
