Where have my skins gone?


Lace

Recommended Posts

I accept that this may not be a Mirage problem, but I've only noticed it with the Mirage so far...

 

I installed some third-party skins for the Mirage, which all unzipped and worked fine yesterday when I did a bit of an apron fashion show, but today when I fired up DCS half of them are missing - that is, they are still where I left them in the CoreMods\aircraft\etc etc. folder, but they are now no longer showing in either the mission planner armaments drop-down, or the rearm/refuel dialog drop-down.

 

Any ideas what has happened to them?

 

TIA

 

EDIT - I should mention that some of the newly missing skins are the original Razbam ones, not just the ones I added.

Where have my skins gone?

 

I cross posted this in the Mirage section ( https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=208483 ) but got no response. I have since noticed that my F86 is also affected.

 

The skins are showing in the coremods/aircraft/etc folders but not within DCS itself. This is especially confusing as the Mirage ones were working fine until a couple of days ago.

 

Anyone got any ideas please?

Just a thought but have you changed country. The skins visible in the mission editor vary depending on which country you select.

 

I keep my skins in my saved games folder now, it causes less issues after updates.

I am having problems seeing my skins as well, even when setting the correct country

Good shout - the skins each have a countries section in the .lua file listing the valid nations for the skins. I just added UK to them all and they are back.

 

It seems this relates to the nationality section in the mission builder object, rather than the pilot profile.

 

Cheers.

Each skin in DCS now has assignment to his own country (or how the author of repaint did assignment also in lua files). Not any bugs here.
