• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Does anyone know what it means when:
  1. You get a dialoge that says "unit model allready used?
  2. When a mission fails to load?
 
The Unit model thing occurs when you have two aircraft using the same filename in their respective folders. You have different files called the same thing. Usually, it's not fatal to your game, but just annoying.

As with mission failing to load, is this happening at the same time?

If not, missions failing to load often means you don't have all the correct files for a mission to load. -Missing aircraft/facilities/weapons etc.
 
You get a dialoge that says "unit model allready used?
Building on Flyby's response, one of your aircraft.cfg files is calling the same XDP or M3D file name as another. Or possibly an aircraft.cfg has two versions within it calling the same XDP or M3D. This can occur when you create a new version of an aircraft but you forget to clone and rename one of the M3D files.
