On my end it works as normal: Can you try the following: 1st, run a DCS repair to make certain that your core DCS is ok. 2nd, rename the templates.lua at /Saved Games/DCS/MissionEditor/ ... say to templates.bak ... this will take out your custom templates if any. Can then you use at least the standard Templates?

Sorry, I thought you were talking about Static Templates, but seems like you were talking about Group Templates ... those are stored on templates.lua at /Saved Games/DCS/MissionEditor/

Are they very old Templates? (over a year) ... happens on every Map? Just tested on my DCS and it seems to work as usual, for example on the Caucasus map:

+1 .. let’s hope ED would do that, but lately I have not been feeling hopeful on the path DCS is taking.

do you know if only ED modules, or will it also affect third-parties? I’m looking forward to the La-7 and would hate to have to skip it like I did with the Mig-29

I was just trying to help identify the cause of the problem, why it happens to some users and not others. However, your reaction makes me doubt myself and its maybe best to just keep to myself.

why delete? ... simply rename your /Saved Games/DCS/ folder into /Saved Games/DCS.bak/ that way you can recover easily if it doesn't fix your problem

On my DCS works fine: wonder how you have managed to get an F-14 appear as helicopter, maybe a stray User Mod?

this is an old guide, but most concepts are still valid https://1drv.ms/b/s!Ai6cuX3YQI26gqVS0lX6SfvYiKbeAQ

I was just adding a data point to your estimate, no other motivation, so no need for sarcasm.

the Steam user survey shows only 2.3% employ linux https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/Steam-Hardware-Software-Survey-Welcome-to-Steam

How can the FM be improved if it is already very close to the real world prototype? being a FC Module does not means that it has no flight model fidelity, what it doesn't have is full fidelity systems (electrics, fuel, hydraulic, sensors, etc)

Yes and No, most DCS assets are provided within the free core of DCS, but there are some that were released together with the South Atlantic Map ... interestingly these are all free to use, even if you don't own the map nor have it installed, I don't know any other Map that includes assets. Other assets available were added together with a Module, like the Chinese assets provided by Deka with the J-11 or the JF-17 ... they are also free to use. Other assets are payware, like the ones that came with the Supercarrier or the WW2 assets pack. Lately, DCS has adopted some assets that were developed by end-users, like the ones made by Current Hill and the ones by Massun92.

Will I be able to load its cockpit shape on the Model Viewer to inspect the arguments used by each cockpit switch or indicator? (to be able to create training missions)

clearly you would never fly something like a sabre, only the most modern stuff will do.

I know it is just a wish, but the real C-101 did not had a DTC nor did it had a Sea Eagle missile ... so, adding both features kind of transform the aircraft into a fantasy one rather than a study-level simulator.

This must be kind of a record, reviving a 20-years old thread to add a pointless remark

Not only affects skinning, it also makes impossible for me to edit training missions for it, since the Model viewer can't load the encrypted cockpit shape to inspect the animation arguments of the cockpit controls. The F-5E remaster was a sad experience and so, from now on, I will not purchase any DCS aircraft that has the same limitations.

Hello, This is a guide for moving /Saved Games/ … do not use it to move the DCS program. Mklink will not duplicate data, nor move it by itself, it just creates the link. I tried both kind of links D and J and my experience was that J worked better with DCS, that’s why I use it. Sorry for the english, but its the language to be used on this forum section. Eduardo

just in case it helps with the fixes, @Gunthrek did a great video on how he made the voiceovers:

+1 … actually I would love to have automatic pins for each kneeboard source: module, map image, map kneeboard, saved games kneeboard, and mission file kneeboard.

Assign them to the Combined Joint Task Forces Blue, instead of UK or USA.

But I have not seen these skins before on User Files, did you originally share them on a different website?

seems he burned out of dcs,at least for a while, so he likely does not visit the forum, but his discord is this one: https://discord.gg/YgRK4SXV

please, contact the OP to see if it would be possible to share your fixes with the community
