Hi,
Lately its all about the MiG-21 for me. Navigation, weapons and dogfighting are just awesome tasks in this bird. Cant wait for LN to release another module. I don't speak Russian, so I thought a new pit would help. But I got a problem.
I have every new paint scheme I can find online for the Fishbed's interior. I have tried to put these in but I cant get them to work. Using mods is not new to me and I am decent at following instructions. Have the new patches taken away the ability to use user made mods for this aircraft?
The procedure I use is to put the new folder in the Mods/Aircraft/Textures folder under the DCS main directory. I checked the use custom pits option in the Special tab. And of course I saved the original folder in case....

Can anyone help or please tell me if these are disabled?

Good day all.

I currently use an english cockpit mod and a "clear glass" mod for the Mig-21, so mods still work (DCS 1.5).

I'd suggest making sure you have installed the files into the proper directories. And sometimes files have to be put into a .zip file in the corresponding folder, like the Mig-21_cockpit.zip file in the textures folder.

Ok the fix is to name the folder same as the one already there. "MiG-21 Cockpit" Also there is a folder for the modded pits. I wonder how many pit mods you can run at once?
