No, I don't see any additional spaces. Not a big deal but it is odd.


Could you post a screen shot of the file name or retype it here?

This is just a guess, but I think it should read

Off_Alb_DIII_early_ace_t_Jasta 12 1917_Joe_Doe_reaper

Copy and paste this to your skin:

Have you checked his AC type is really SE5 and nnot SE5a?
Second possibility is that there was not available free ace skin slot in mission for Lewis. WOFF can assign max 5 or 6 individual ace skins (for the same aircrfat), so, if there were more than 6 aces flying Se5, someone had to draw quadron's default skin only.

Regarding the skin for Cecil Lewis...

The problem is not the naming, the problem I think, it´s the way it was saved when it was created. I opened the file with DXTBMP and resaved it as a DXT1 (with alpha). And voila, it works.

For any future ones, it should normally be DXT1 with No alpha for most aircraft skins.

I was wondering if anyone had any idea if WOTR would include the Russian Front campaign as well as North Africa,Italy etc. In other words I was wondering if this would include all theatres during the period 1939-1945 or if it would be just west front focused? I know Il2 does Russian front but would be super awesome to have such a major campaign for WOTR.I know probably too massive to do everything but one can wish =). I would have asked on WOTR news but thread closed lol. 2 rounds of drinks to everyone and fly safe!

I had a question about some AI settings in workshop. For realism sake do you guys usually fly with reduced vision acuity and AI damage affects skill turned on or off? I have been flying with them on and was just curious what everyone uses.

Hey all been awhile and am wanting to get back in to the game when I have some time. I tried to update my WOFF UE to patch 4.20 and am getting E:\OBDSoftware\WOFF\Toolbox|WOFFKeys.exe
An error occurred while trying to rename a file in the destination directory
MoveFile failed: code 5.
Access is denied

Any ideas why this might be happening?

Few questions:
1st. Have you tried running the patch as administrator?
2nd. Did your try to run patch with any mods enabled? If so, disable all mods, then patch, then re-integrate.
3rd. Does WOFF run in its current state pre-patch? Worst case, you can always do a fresh install and start from scratch. You can backup and restore your settings / pilots via Robert Wiggins great WOFF backup utility!

I'm by no means the go to source for troubleshooting, but figured i'd put my 2 cents in since i'm awake. Give it till morning/afternoon tomorrrow (Today? Lol) , someone more knowledgeable than my humble self will likely contribute. biggrin .
Good Luck!

I got this same error again but just for the heck of it I loaded up game and checked version it shows in workshop Version UE:4.20-4241. So I guess I'm good to go? Just weird that installation kept encountering error right at end of install and I hit abort and it said rolling back changes. Does this make sense or am I missing something lol?
