Hi,
What mods do I need to install enable catapults in DBW.
Regards
DGB

[Frankiek]

Catapult mod is included in engine mod 2.6 that is already in dbw 1.71

[DEEGE]

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
I have installed the Clemenceau/Foch ship mod into DBW.
The ships have installed correctly  and appear in game to use,
however the catapult function does not kick in on take off.
I taxi to the catapult area where I think the catapult  is supposed to
 grab the aircraft , place it on the cat. with chocks in ready to launch.
But nothing happens
 What  other carrier can I select  that uses the catapult function
To make sure it is actually working .
I m not sure of the version of DBW but I think it is the first edition
Called build 1.7
Regards
DGB

If i remember correctly make sure that you have the Clemenceau inserted in the file catapult.ini
