Hello Everypeeps,
I have a bug thats just appeared in FMB. When I place a static aircraft, lets say a spit1, it plonks it down with russian markings...period. The "menu" box has corrupted to another type of static object, IE a ship etc. with the options for rof and veteran/novice and a double overlay where it should ask which airforce it belongs to (but not in this example, and "Jerry`s" got no markings?). I have been working around this by pulling entries for the plane I want from another mis. file and placing it in the new one, but I can`t carry on indefinately like this. I presume its a corrupted file...but I`m blowed if I know what to replace!!! As a side note, When I load a mission it sometimes doesnt load any objects...just the flightpaths and planes. If I reload it they appear (most of the time,lol), I fear the FMB`s putting up a bit of a black, old boy!

Anybody have any ideas?

burner, which version, if any, of forgotten countries are you using?
If you are using FC Lite which was available at SAS, we discovered an FMB bug with it which affexted plane markings.
There is a new 'Thinned' FC version which works, or the original FC mod also works.
If the problem is not this, then sorry, got no idea, mate. :wink:

Maybe... no wait? Ha the FMB crashes with the Halifax Plane setting, maybe it's just modded planes

I like the pilots and the men standing on the Messerchmitt and Spit, are they from the Infantry mod?

Yo BigBossmalone,
Yes I have FC lite with the McWolf decal mod installed.....aha! I shall investigate further, thanks for the heads up on that one. I hope I dont have to uninstall that mod...love the decal shine and hakenkreuz aspect of it.

Yo Planemad,
Yeah, they are reskinned infantry mod figures.....look good but have no shadows (spooky).

Yep...FC Lites the culprit alright,,,,hmmm!

I'd recommend getting the new FC 'Thinned' version, also at SAS. It won't affect McWolf, etc. Just replace the Lite version with the Thinned, and you'll be good to go.
