kaa Member Registered: 01/10/01 Posts: 2354 Loc: France	Originally Posted By: elephant There is a problem with some units and aces skins appearance with FM Mod on (Jasta 37 for example). If you realize that aces skins don't appear in your unit you have to do the exiting trick once and then continue with your Campaign along with the aces skins. OFF Manager sometimes get confused with the FM Mod and forces the aces skins to default ones. You have to trick OFF Manager by generating one mission outside the Mod and then refly the same mission with the Mod. thank you, but have we to do that each mission or each time we load a campaign, or only once for a given campaign or only once ?

This is the $64,000 question. What is the method for keeping our glorious skins and the improved flight model as well? In other words - how do we shamelessly have our cake and eat it too? I guess, also, now that I think about it - is it just the Ace skins that fail to appear or are squadron colours also compromised? Edited by CaptSopwith (06/08/12 02:18 PM)

I used the Mod in my RNAS 8 Campaign without any tricks and the skins were there. However in a Jasta 37 Campaign, I have also running, I get only the generic Jasta skin for every plane, aces included. In that case the 'trick' is needed. I've done it before and it's working... I remember doing it only once, not every time I was initialising OFF... I'm not sure if it still works if you interchange Campaigns though...

To work correctly with all mods, JSGME must be installed in the parent folder, usually "ODBSoftware", alongside the "CFSWW1 Over Flanders Fields" and "WW1Scenery" folders. A repacked HPW FM/EW mod that works properly with a correct installation of JSGME should be officially posted soon, but for now you can temporarily get it here. Note that many of the reports of no problems with skins are probably because the FM mod wasn't actually being run. _________________________ Play Over Flanders Fields with OFFbase: An immersive role-playing simulation of life between flights.
