whamil77 Posted August 27, 2018 Posted August 27, 2018 I am new to DCS. I have extensive experience with FSX/P3D but desire branch out into combat aviation. I am a retired Naval Aviator flying FA-18s for 30+ years. To the problem. I have downloaded several missions for the P-51D from the DCS site. I have also downloaded and installed into the Mods folder those additional mods required for each mission. Upon loading the mission I am presented with a notice that Module "XXX" is required for the mission. However, module "XXX" is in the Mods folder and shows installed and active in the Module Manager. Obviously, being new to the interface, I am doing something wrong. I just don't know what.
nessuno0505 Posted August 27, 2018 Posted August 27, 2018 Maybe it's a silly question, but are you using the payware add-on P-51 or the one included in DCS world? Since the latter is unarmed civil TF-51 version, for combat campaigns you need to purchase the pay P-51.

Looked at your log file, with the 3rd party mods, they aren't parsing authentications, therefore they aren't loading up (hence the mission module errors), most likely cause is that you have put the files in the MOD folder of the games directory itself, ie d:\Games\DCS World\Mods\ and not the \Saved Games\Dcs\Mods\ where they are required to be these days, so if that is the case, just move them over and try again.

Thanks for the response. I moved the mods to the Saved Games folder as directed but got the exact same result. I note, however, that the ED mods contain a file called "dcs_manifest.x86_64" but the mods that fail to load do not. Is that something that should have been included with the 3rd party mods?
