Possible bug in MAW

Suddenly, I lost the pilot and gunner for Potez 630/631 aircraft. I can't see them in the plane, and when I switch the seat for the gunner - nobody flies the plane, and it crashes. Howewer, both pilot and gunner can bail out. This happened after I have been using Mission Builder. I have uninstalled Mission Builder, uninstalled MAW and reinstalled it again, but the same problem still exists. I don't know how to fix it.
 
Check to be sure you have Combat flight simulator updated to 3.1
Without this the auto pilot doesn't work well..
MAW is a wonderful expansion, and I do enjoy flying this in the Med and North Africa..
Hope this can be sorted out for you..
 
I can fly the plane, but I can't see the pilot and gunner inside the plane, and also when I am on gunner's position, there is no pilot and the plane crashes. I have CFS 3.1a version installed. Some clue may be this happened while I was using the Mission Builder, but I have no idea what could cause the problem, and why does it still appear after MAW reinstallation.
 
What are your settings for the Display?
if the Config settings are set low, a 1 or 2 setting the pilots don't show up..
Change the config settings in the config tool in MAW
to say 3 or higher and see if this helps..

inside of MAW( main folder) is the config icon click on this and set up the settings to 3 or higher..
also when finished EXIT the config tool , don't just close it.. Use the exit tab to keep these settngs intact..

Check the Knowledge base here at the CFS3 fourms there is lots of info there that can help you understand how these CFS3 family of Sims work and tricks to improve your experience with these wonderful sims..
I hope this helps..

Yes, you are right, thank you very much. I have switched to 2 when I started using Mission Builder, because I have an old computer, and I've put lots of units in the created missions which were slowing it down too much. But, why does this affect only Po-630/631 aircraft? In others I could still see the pilots at setting 2. Now I use setting 3 again, but I have interruptions time to time.
 
The problem depends entirely on how CFS3 and the model interact. No two models will be exactly the same and how much or little the game engine shows at low detail settings is determined by CFS3's own calculations.

Only the modeler can do anything about this, but he's been retired for years.
 
In campaign mode, when I press M for the map during mission, simulator stucks every time, and I have to restart the computer. I have used the Spawning Setup Utility.
