chromium Posted July 2, 2018 Author Share Posted July 2, 2018 ahh so nothing works on 1.58? unless 1.5.7 version is compatible, no. Obviously you have to install 1.5.7 version in main DCS directory, or it won't work anyway.

Alpenwolf Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 (edited) Got it running in 2.5 now with the latest update -> still aint working for me. Had the mods folder first in the main DCS folder, then moved it over to Saved Games after generating a snapshot for JSGME as required. All mods seem to work either way except for the DAWS Package.

Had the mods folder first in the main DCS folder, then moved it over to Saved Games after generating a snapshot for JSGME as required. All mods seem to work either way except for the DAWS Package. 1. mod shouln't be placed in main DCS folder, it may corrupt things. All mod since 2.2.0 has to be in Saved Games folder 2. snapshot for JGSME? 3. have you removed writing protection from main DCS folder? if everything is as described I need your dcs.log file... here everything works ok.

Alpenwolf Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 When I added JSGME, according to their forum one has to click on "task" after opening the JSGME programme, then hit "Generate Snapshot of Game Files". This simply saves all the files before implementing any mod. So I right-clicked the JSGME-shortcut, placed "D:\Alpenwolf\Saved Games\DCS" as the target for JSGME, then added all the mods I have. They all work, except for DAWS Package.

Never did nothing as this, always worked, but anyway: still please check other points I wrote: - writing protection in main DCS folder; - if doesn't work please send me a log. If I can't reproduce the issue, I can't point if there is a bug or not and where it is.

chromium Posted July 2, 2018 Author Share Posted July 2, 2018 ok since you can't even see the option menù (as per your first post), it seems an installation issue. So please check this: If I download the mod and unzip the package, I see this: (path)....\DAWS_Package_252\DAWS_Package_252\ that red part is doubled. If I unzip in the JGSME\MOD folder, otherwise, it works. So please check that inside your DAWS_Package_252 folder there are some folder named AMVI, Mods, Scripts.... and not another "DAWS_Package_252" folder. If so, simply copy the content inside the first "DAWS_Package_252" folder Author of DSMC, mod to enable scenario persistency and save updated miz file Stable version & site: https://dsmcfordcs.wordpress.com/ Openbeta: https://github.com/Chromium18/DSMC The thing is, helicopters are different from planes.

Alpenwolf Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Problem solved :thumbup: Yeah, the file was doubled. DAWS Package folder contains another DAWS Package folder with the 4 files needed. So JSGME stops at opening the first file and finds nothing. Might wanna update the file so others don't run into trouble, please. I'll add the mod to my server right away. Stay tuned for reports, sir! God bless!

Alpenwolf Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Does it finally works with 2.5.2? Yes! The problem was; when extracting the downloaded .zip file, a folder by the name DAWS_Package_252 is created. If you open the file you'd find another DAWS_Package_252 folder. The latter contains the files we need for the package to work. So JSGME always stopped after opening the first file, not "knowing" the files it needs are within the second DAWS_Package_252 folder. Simply move the files to the first DAWS_Package_252 folder and delete the extra DAWS_Package_252 folder that will become empty, once you move the files from it.

Alpenwolf Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 heres me logs You can find your log in for example: D:\username\Saved Games\DCS\Logs To get the log file you'd have to start the game first. Check under settings if the DAWS Package's there or not. If not, exit the game and find the log file in the folder mentioned above. Search for it by looking for the newest file - search by date - if that helps.
