how to add add-ons?

Hoping someone can help. I've got a licensed copy of PoC xxl and a downloaded some addon ships. I put the xml folder in the user_addons\ships folder and I put relevant topview and sideview files in the corresponding folders.

I've got user addons active but they don't appear in the ship broker. Am I doing anything wrong?

Thanks.

hi,

in start procedure of game you should select at level of difficulty screen the start year.

This date should be same (or greater) with parameter <baujahr> of downloaded ship xml file.
Did u check it??

Hi,

Yes, the date is greater than the <baujahr> parameter in the downloaded xml file.

Do I have to start a new game for the ships to be available or will they be available in a previously saved game?

Thanks

hello

I would suggest to check in ship.xml file that in parameter <bildinforeferenz>

the name of ship is EXACTLY the same with name in sideview or topview

be sure that you have checked the whole lists of available names in shipbroker screen (not only low cost vessels).

Hope I helped somewhat

bye

Thanks for that. I found the ships. They were in Low Cost Ships (I never thought to look there Smile

).
