@MAESTR0 So, now that N2 (with its working kneeboard) is out the door - the reason given for the delay - will we now see this fix being implemented very soon?

I know it's been discussed a lot over the years, but I have not really had an issue with the greens in Normandy. Could be my fading eyesight, of course! What would be a good mission to choose to highlight where this is particularly bad?

Do you see Normandy 2 or Normandy 1944 in module manager installed terrains?

Good tip!

Guys, ignore my last few posts. The issue was just in one module, and the solution was nothing to do with OMM. It's working fine. Sorry to have wasted anyone's time on this.

Just tried the author's original version, and it's exactly the same issue. Weird.

They are exactly the same. All I did was to change the zip name and internal folder name appended with v1.0.7 to get the version showing in OMM. This has worked perfectly well for months, just recently it's not. Can't explain it.

Eh, no. That campaign is for the Channel map. Different product.

So, something weird going on that I'm sure is on me, but OMM will no longer install one of my mods, i.e. Quaggles Injector mod. See attached. It consists of only one file, i.e. data.lua, but when I run the install in OMM, the original file remains in place. I have to manually copy it over. It used to work fine, but now, no. I guess it must be obvious, but if anyone could help, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks. It was a really weird one!

So, after trying a repair, a deep repair, a clean up, renaming Saved Game folder, etc., nothing worked to get the Apache back. Although it seems like I'm talking to myself here , just in case anyone else has this issue, a clean DCS install solved the issue. Thanks BN for the reply. All good now!

AFAICS, the missions are the same as N1.

No one? Should I open a support ticket?

Sure, but it still looks weird having that black hole in the N2 map where the Channel map exists. It would be nice to think that there is a way of bringing the parties together for continuity's sake.

Tried reinstalling the module, but no difference.

Works OK in Stable Version.

Yep, changing the pagefile made no difference to the issue. It's only using about 15Gb of system ram and 9gb VRAM.

Thanks a lot, I’ll give that a go in a few minutes. However, I’m a little confused. I’ve got 32Gb DRAM and 24Gb VRAM and have never seen this happen before, in other modules in DCS or in any other game. I have used the Apache module often and never seen this before with it either. Why would it start happening now, and only in the Apache?

Sorry, yes here it is. dcs.zip

Weird issue. My Apache cockpit graphics are not showing, only skeleton outline. Tried a repair, but made no difference. Any ideas?

Given what UGRA have been doing in and around the Channel area for a long time now, it seems a bit odd that ED chose to do that area at all. Should've left it to UGRA to incorporate into Normandy and concentrate on another untouched area.

I'm afraid I have to disagree. UGRA's customer service is appalling and there are many issues with the Syria map just lying around unresolved despite user pressure. It's been well over a year since we had a - long promised by UGRA - update on that map. They still haven't got the kneeboard working in Syria, for goodness sake!

Ah OK, so the detailed areas are different. Got it. I presume this was a decision made so as not to affect The Channel map sales potential. I mean if you look at the 2 detailed areas, it just looks a bit weird that the Channel Map area is missing from N2. I guess it would be complicated with the different parties involved, but what are the chances of having a merge of these 2 maps, which would make perfect sense? Sure, but I guess I was meaning future development. However, I didn't realise that the detailed areas were different.

So with the release of Normandy 2, is there any point in the Channel map? Does it have a future function any more? I'm sure there is a thread on this but I couldn't find it.

No too many, actually. Seems the same as the old Normandy map, so for Spitfire there just the usual cold start, on the runway, free flight and dogfight ones. Very few quick start for WWII planes. Disappointing really.
