Hi There,

The game quit playing. My pilot's Sqn was pulled out of the battle. The screen shot said enlist another pilot clicked New Pilot and a pop up read. Error cannot read Pilot Dossiers. The Game would not play. Turned off and on ( Restart ) and same Error came back up Same for quick fights and campaign . Help

I think you need to go back to the campaign page and create a new pilot from there. That is what I had to do.

Maybe the file is corrupted. Try looking in users/appdata/roaming/obdsoftware or whatever the path is, and see if you can identify the dossier file, then either delete, or edit it.

Worth trying before reinstalling the whole game?

Think they are in here (my path as example)

C:\OBDSoftware\WOTR\OBDWW2 Wings Over The Reich\campaigns\CampaignData\Pilots

Perhaps if you delete each pilot (claims, squad, dossier, log) , all pilots in one go or perhaps one by one, or, copy them out and paste them back in one by one it will work.

Sa me for other Squads ect. Went to restart the game and now I am getting a fatal error msg point 12 and to re-install. It looks kinda like it really needs to be Re-installed. On the downside my WOTR download link expired a long time back. I was thinking of trying the shadow Copy and import an early er version of the game ( restoring deleted files procedure lets U get into the shadow copies. However, thats a lot of work and takes a while and might not work so might not do that. The brightside a clean reinstall would work ( I think ) and I do have a Christmas I want Gift left to go. Any way thanks for helping out.
