For just the basic let's go up and dogfight its not bad but when you read through all the post on this thread and all the attached threads that go with it it seams pretty extensive.

Same here. I only buy anymore once I've read enough forum content that the module is as it should be. Don't need perfect but the reason we pay so much for DCS modules is because we are not just your every day run and gun simmers. We want immersion and we are willing to pay for it. It's like the difference between buying a basic Hyundai or going into a BMW dealership and getting what you pay for. If I wanted every day incomplete sims I can get that for $40 in one box with 20 different planes. If the sim is going to be just like buying the the generic flight sims of the past why bother.

Yeah I'm seeing where other people with the stand alone mods are having the same issues. I see in one of your thumbnails you posted showing the special tab in the game settings that there are several other "conversions" such as the SU-25 that originally came with the game. Is that mod yours as well?

So you're having the same problems I am with the stand-a-lone. I am still using the DCS 2.5.5xxx version. Haven't downloaded the latest update yet.

Sorry for delay. I am in USA in totally different time zones. I do not have FC3. I own F15C and MIG-29 as separately purchased modules. As for the F-5E liveries for some reason they put the extra liveries for the F-5E in your saved game files under liveries. Not sure why but when I overwrote that file with your download it erased all of those other files.

Should all three MIG-29 cockpit folders have these lines in them?

I'm starting to see some of the problem. I don't have any of these files you show listef in your MIG-29 file. All I have is a single .lua file. Also when typed cockpit_MIG-29 in lower case it's not necessarily how the files show it. I don't know how to copy file lines to forums other than type them in. Sorry

I think all F-5E liveries were in the saved games area because it's the only plane that lost the multiple livery options.

Question: Why would you have us overwrite the existing liverie files in saved games instead of adding it to the already existing files. Now I've lost all my other liveries in this file including the many F-5E exterior liveries found in this file. I have the stand alone MIG-29 No FC3.

That's exactly how I have it. I only have the three MIGs under special because this is the first conversion I've installed.

What it should tell you is to copy the three MIG-29 cockpit files and put them in the "Liveries" folder with all the others. Not to overwrite the liveries folder. Now I don't know how to get the others back without a full reinstall. Hate to do that with all the modules I've purchased.

By following the instructions given with the file it told me to overwrite my "liveries" file in saved games which did away with all my other aircraft "liveries" such as all the F-5E liveries. Where I had several to choose from now i only have 2. Read Me.txt

Yeah I did something wrong somewhere. I've lost all my F-5E liveries. Only have 2 now. Had several before this.

my saved games file looks like this: saved games/DCS/Liveries/cockpit MIG-29A saved games/DCS/Liveries/cockpit MIG-29G saved games/DCS/Liveries/cockpit MIG-29S [Edit] Sorry forgot the "cockpit" in the line

I have the option in the special setting window to choose either default or english for the MIG 29 but it's not showing up when I go to the actual cockpit. One other thing I have a bad feeling that I replaced all my stock liveries in the savedgame/DCS folder with these 3 MIG folders because in the instructions it said to overwrite. I don't see any of the other liveries that come with the game.
