mods conflict Armoured vehicles not appearing in Missions.

[Sassy321]

For the past few days I am unable to use any tank and most armoured vehicles and AAA vehicles as well as infantry from any country or coalition in missions. I place the ground units and they do not spawn in the mission once I start it the only ground units that spawn are anything to do with a SAM and unarmed vehicles, any airplane, helicopter and ship work and I can use in missions.

eeee.miz

The vehicles can't be seen in the F10 Map or spectated by using F7 because they do not spawn in, I have repaired the game files twice and started new missions and still the vehicles do not spawn. This all started when I copy and pasted USA Infantry in a mission the mission 4 days ago.

The vehicle is not in the game after I started the mission nor can it be spectated.

How can I fix this issue?

Tested your mission, everything looks ok.

I have added a ground unit (BTR-80) and i can see it on F10 map and with F7, no problem.

Maybe you set your plane as BLUE + Player skill, then hit the F10 and F7? In this case you won't see the unit, cause is RED.

Set an "Observer" from left menu, "Battlefield Commander" (two flags), then choose it when mission starts- this way you can see all units in a mission.

Or, disable Fog of War: upper menu, Customize, Mission Options, right menu, F10 View Options - check All option

Plus: make sure you didn't checked "Hidden on Map", "Late Activation", history filter, or changed start time.

Hope it helps

Same exact issue, since the last update Beta with the Apache release missions I had with BTR-80's and T-72's, those units don't show up. Created a completely new mission and only unarmored trucks are showing when I placed them along with BTR-80's and T-72's.  I tried to place Blue armor and same issue, however anything in the Unarmored category places and spawns just fine.

Post a DCS.log file from immediately after it happened. Might get a clue in there. Is the eeee.miz file posted one where you had tried to add the units? If so they aren't in the miz.

OK, so I removed several mods and the armored vehicles are now back and working again. I had 5 mods.

AT-infantry, GPUs, Navy Equipment, UH-1H attachments and 476 range targets. 

I will have to experiment by adding them each in to see how they could possible have messed that up.

[monkie]

Ok well somehow either the Navy Equipment or the GPU's were causing the armored units not to spawn. Removing them both and the armored units are now appearing.

All I can say is to check your "Tech" mods if you have any, remove them all and see if that fixes the issue and then re-add them one by one.

Sorry didn't mean to hijack the thread from SASSY's original post but was having the same exact issue, hopefully my experience might help him isolate his issue.

This issue is happening again after v2.9

[bennyboy9800]

It is likely also caused by a tech mod, just a matter of determining which one. 

EDIT: Seemed to have been an outdated version of @currenthill's PGL-625. Installing his new version should fix this!

Correct. It doesn’t take much. There was an addition of a single missile parameter for the missile scheme the PGL625 FB10A IR guided missile uses that was the culprit. 
 

It’s been fixed now. So update the PGL625 to 1.4.0 and at least my 100+ assets will function as intended.

I've got the same issue, set up ZSU-23 and ZSU-57 ground air defence units with all the bells and whistles and even though they show on my ME map once in game some of the units have not been rendered at all, I was on the Syria map and all units named and set up correctly with full advanced waypoint actions.

As written above, if you're using the PGL-625 mod:

I have the same problem...even removing the SU-35 mod and the PGL-625, some ground units disappear

 

- Solved! Just removed the JAS-39

Wow - thanks! This has been driving me nuts where two ZSU-23s don't show up in my default test mission (naturally bombing poor old Kobuleti). Removed the JAS-39 mod and now they are back again. Odd - as there are no JAS-39s in the mission...
