Brand new DM and FM now ready!
elephant replied to Herr Prop-Wasche's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
I have to report a possible bug with the FM mod. I don't know how to call it or how to address it, but with the FM mod on, the aces skins are not showing in my Campaigns! (at least for my squad)... Once I disable the mod the aces skins are back... Any ideas? -
New report. I'm afraid that my efforts were in vain and the new installation was not really needed. I started a new Jasta 37 Campaign with my fresh install. Aces skins were showing all right, exept from Kurt Grasshof's one, (game was using the default Jasta 37 one). Believing that my problem is solved and such a glitch can be considered minor, I modded my game.with my usual mods. HPW's FM and DM mods, Creaghorn's sound tweak II, Blechley's mission mods, my own tracers and spandau sound mods and that's it. Entering again my Campaign and the aces skins were gone and replaced by the Jasta's default ones. It must have been some Mod... I disabled the last one added before noticing the problem in my old installation, (HPW German FM mod) and voila! The skins were back again. Furthermore I enabled my new Jasta 37 1917 skinpack via JSGME and the skins were showing all right, (well except that Grasshof's skin that wasn't showing from the beginning anyway). No one has ever notice such conflict with the FM mod? I tried to enable it back but since I do it, I'm loosing the aces skins! Now what?
-
I kind or re-installed, (used the repair option, as was recommended by the installer)...But still... the problem remains...no aces skins in Campaign, (I did a full installation with all the skins included). I checked in the workshops, overrides if there is an option to prevent aces skns to show, ticked, but there wasn't any. Now trying the replace option,(full re-installation)! Let' see what will happen... (I also had to install again CFS3, from the CDs and patch it to v.3.1).

The planes were delivered in factory finish at front units and Jasta markings, were all painted on field. It's not easy to find such a thesaurus of so high quality pictures on line! I knew about WnW site, but thanks anyway, Olham!

That's a good idea Scout, if it could be realised it would be great! I want to ask if something else FM wise can be addressed: Emergency landings! You are trying to land a damaged plane, sometimes with a wingtip lost or shot up and have to counter this with aileron and rudder input. You manage to touch down gently in minimum speed, but the plane although taxing, still behaves like flying and the drug forces the plane to tip on the damaged wing and explodes, no matter how gently you managed to land. Or if the undercarriage is somehow damaged, it collapses in touchdown, again no matter how gentle the approach is, and instead of keeping on with a belly crash landing the plane explodes immediately and you dead! Is anything to be done for that? It's kind of frustrating when it happens! -

I don't think it's a new "bug", though... I have noticed this happening, before the ultimate DM mod. -
Not much really, 22,55 hours, 13 confirmed victories. I made a report of his last mission in the "reports from the front" thread... I tried both the reset options with no results, unfortunately... This problem must have been occurred earlier, I just noticed it now, I think... Even in my Jasta 23 Campaign, I don't recall seeing the distinctive Kissenberth's scheme lately... However I remember downing a British ace in a Spad VII, with a personal scheme, (olive green fuselage while all the other Spads were clear doped), In my Jasta 37 Campaign. So it seems only the player's Sqn is affected from lack of aces skins... I don't know, I had put my hopes on the Reset option and to tell the truth I'm a bit reluctant to reinstall everything again!
-
OK, thanks! I don't really mind for the pilots after loosing my serious Jasta 23b pilot in Sunday. The others have more or less a couple of hours flying time each, not a big loss anyway...
-
OK, but there must be something else than the skins themselves..(BTW, I don't have any extra ace skin created). I started a new Campaign with Jasta 28w, (never joined them before or ever messed with their skins). Again only the default skin shows up... Do you think I should reinstall or what?
-
It's not the first time I ever make or install a skin in OFF... I have never encounter such a problem before... The names must be OK, as I've overwritten the originals, (after I copied them first in a back up folder). Can you do me a favour, give my skins, a try, (most part is yours actually) and see what will happen in your Campaign... Even if I messed up with the names, why when I restored back the originals and started a brand new Campaign, the problem remained? Skins withdrawn due to update.
-
I've started at the 28th of September'17. I have seen the default aces skins in the skins folder, as I have replaced them with my own ones. Anyway, I restored back all the default skins and started a new Campaign at the same date. Again, only the default Jasta 37 skin showes up... Have a look at the pics below. (I've turned icons on in order to show the problem). Above, Ernst Hamster should sport a white band on fuselage, instead he bears my new Jasta 37 default. Below, (new Campaign with restored default skins), Ernst Udet, again with Jasta's default...
-
I have started a new Campaign with Jasta 37 in late September'17, but the aces' skins don't show up! Enst Udet and the rest of the aces are using the default Jasta 37 skin. I have never experienced such a problem... Any ideas?
-
To answer to the question Olham left unanswered... You don't need the CD other than in intallation and as a matter of fact you don't need CFS3 at all in your hard drive, after succesfully installing OFF. (OFF only needs some files from CFS3 CDs or DVD in order to install properlly and that's it). Wellcome to OFF World!

Guys, about that "error" problem...is not really an error, it's a warning that two or more mods are merged together. ie you are putting a mod over the other. (the first mod's name will then be look as grayed, meaning that can't be deactivated if the superimposed mod isn't deactivated first). Nothing wrong with that, only if you want, for any reason to deactivate the mods, you have to do it in the exact opposite sequence. (JSGME will remember and will turn from gray to black the next mod of the merged ones that can be deactivated.) -
