Pacific Aces Janus Error

I've recently have been getting the following error message when trying to start a new campaign. Anyone know what it means? Thanks for any help.

I do no longer remember exactly what the Janus errors were, but that one looks like a missing unit. Did you apply all the patches?

From my notes, going back, no more Janus errors after installing Project Messerwetzer. That was the 'cure all'

I would like to report no more Janus errors after realizing that PA seems to need Project Messerwetzer and doing a clean re-install of everything in this order:

1. Clean Install of SH2, and rename the folder to 'Pacific Aces' or whatever name you prefer.
2. Install the official SH2 Patch 1.1
3. Install Vicker's mods
4. Install Project Messerwetzer to avoid some Janus errors
5. Install PA 1.0, pointing to your 'Pacific Aces' folder.
6. Install PA patch 1.1
7. Install new PA Sound 1.1
8. Install glitche fix patch that includes optional dive bubble for Project Messerwetzer
9. Lethal radius mod (used 5 DepthChargeJP*.ADF files)
10. Active sonar hack ... edited the 10 SonarActive, SonaractiveUS, SonaractiveJapan, etc... files.

Happy Hunting!
