I've tried installing this mod several times, and I keep getting a CTD at 20%. Is it due to a buttons issue? I've been using Maus's updated buttons file for 9.3, and I've also tried the one from AC installer 3.1 , but no luck. I've also checked my STD files (new lines are just as they are in the readme). I do have Freddy's 109 cockpit repaints in an earlier folder in my mods directory; could this be a problem? Any suggestions?? :x
Anyone getting the F2 and F4 Jabo's to work with DCG?
The standard tropical ones work with DCG just fine...
But when I try to use any of the F2B, F2B_Trop, F4B, or F4B_Trop in DCG, it makes a substitution.
I have the class file names right, however, when checking the DCG error log, it will say..
The Bf-109F-2B (or whatever other version) assigned to I_JG20 is not present in the class file. A substitution has been made.
Now if the class file name was wrong, it would throw an actual DCG error and crash DCG, so I know the class file name is correct ( quadruple checked it with the AIR ini file as well)
They show up just fine in the FMB
Anyone have any luck gettng them to work with DCG?
Has anyone sucessfully added these to DCG, I cant seem to get the R1 added at all. PLease help if you can. Thanks
The addition to DCG may work if you put the right skin folders in paintschemes..... anyone had any luck with this?
I got it working tonight.
The DCG class.dcg line had a column for the paintscheme folder name.
I had it wrong for the F2B, F2Btrop, F4B, F4Btrop .. so once I put the folder names in correctly in the DCG class.dcg file, it worked fine.
Yes, thats the answer, I tried elsewhere but no replys, got some of them working, will do the rest later. great
Thanks Widowmaker
Side note. The F2/F4 Jabos are still unusable with loadouts via mission play.
Ive tried using the 4xSC50 and 1xSC250 as well as 4sc50 and 1sc250 nomenclature. regardless of which you use, IL2 gives an error that , that weapon is not in the class file for that aircraft.
You can select, load and fly the aircraft in QMB with bombs..
You can select the aircraft in the FMB and give it a load out, even save the mission. but try and load a mission with one of those Jabos with any bomb load, and it will throw that error.
Now, normal aircraft, if you were to load it with 4 SC50's and save the mission file. It would read in the MIS file, 4xsc50
Which is what you normally see in the weapons_ru.properties file as well as the DCG payloads file.
However, when you save one of the F model Jabos, the mis file reads 4sc50
So Im guessing the weapon loadouts in the class files are still incorrect.
Yes I see what you mean.........is it weapon loadouts in class or allpayloads?
Thanks again
Also, I get an error message with the R1, the pods dont show up, you dont happen to know the correct
entry for the allpayloads for that one do you.
I have had no luck with my experiments with the others (jabos)
the problem is in the actual class file for the aircraft in the game.
At least thats as far as I can tell.
I havnt tried the R1 yet but here are my entries for that. I see it in the game but I have not tried to put it in a mission with a loadout

Bf-109F-4/R1.none Empty
Im guessing there is something wrong in the actual java class file for the new aircraft relating to the weapons loadout.
cant think of anything else
I spose this is what Beta is all about, can't expect it to work out of the box, it's a fine job so far, hope the problems get ironed out, cant get the F2Trop to work either.
Thanks
The F2Trop or F2Btrop?
I have them all IN the game and in DCG...
The only time they fail to work is the B models if the mission has them loaded with bombs etc.
here are my DCG class.dcg entries for the F2 and F4 aircraft.
If you want to get the B models working with DCG in missions, the only way to do it right now, would be to set the loadouts to default for everything. That way, DCG doesn't try to put bombs on them.
Then you can manually load a bomb once you get to the arming screen.
However, the AI wont be loaded.
