Rami,

After reloading the Sky Unlimited BF109 according to the instructions, I continue to get "Aircraft failed to initialize" on both the SU_BF109_2 and _4. on all the German Missions.

The briefing screen shows the player A/C name with an underscore between the BF and 109 ( ex.SU_BF_109_2) on both and my A/C folder has the name SU_BF109_2 and _4 as instructed.

What am I missing here?

I also having initialization issues with the BSK_Spitfire_MK_VB in all the Malta and Lybia Missions.

Highpockets,

Do the aircraft show up in free flight?

Rami,

Sorry, you asked me that before. The BSK_Spitfire_MK_VB, SU_BF_109_2 and another A/C, BF-109-G2 trop that I cannot get to load in missions is not in the Free Flight list at all. The SU_BF109_4 shows up, but will not intialize.

I feel like I have been down this road before, but cannot remember the solution.

Highpockets,

Then that tells me that there is something wrong with the aircraft themselves. You'll want to investigate why this is happening. Make sure that the aircraft.cfg files are correct, as well as the sim name in the aircraft.cfg file.

Also, check to make sure that the aircraft's panels are there, and that the sound.cfg is aliased to an aircraft you already have, or that you add sounds. If the aircraft don't show up in free flight, you need to investigate why first. Otherwise, trying to fly a mission without fixing the aircraft is putting the proverbial cart before the horse!

If you get deadlocked, zip up the aircraft folders and send 'em to ramisoh "at" aol "dot" com. I'll untangle the spiderweb for you.

Panels and sound are there. What should all match in names: Folder, Air.cfg & sim name?

Did you check to make sure that the sound.cfg is aliased correctly to an aircraft that you already have?

And to the second part of your question, yes.

Got BSK Spit to work in Malta missions but "the escort stringbag" CTD after a while.
Where is the BF-109G-2 trop B-6?
Still struggling with the Skyunlimited BF 109s'
some of those missions don't recognize the BSK ??
