Can you post your custome mission, specially the tank section?

 

Here's a section of a custom mission

 

[GroundMission001]

GroundObjectType=Type95

Name=Type95 Ha-Go

NavalObject=FALSE

MobileObject=TRUE

FormationType=SOVIETTANK ; Here you set the formation, if they are inline most likely you use the truck convoy formation

Size=3 ; Here's the number of tanks in the formation

Sorry, I tried your suggestions, but they didn't work. Could it be something with my FORMATION.INI file?

 

This is what I put into the mission:

 

[GroundMission002]

GroundObjectType=T-55

Name=

StartTime=10.0

MobileObject=TRUE

FormationType=SOVIETTANK

Size=10

RandomChance=100

Position=446660.0,474050.0,0.0

Carrier=FALSE

NavalObject=FALSE

Heading=00.0

Speed=16.0

Alignment=ENEMY

Nation=

ObjectiveID=

Waypoint[01].Command=WAYPOINT

Waypoint[01].Position=447000.00,479000.00,0.00

Waypoint[01].Size=500.0

Waypoint[01].Speed=10.0

Waypoint[01].Objective=TRUE

Look at your Formartion.ini, you have two Formation005 entries. I think the game stops reading the file after the first formation005, therefore the SovietTank is never read & loaded
