solved Missing rocket Pods on inner pylons - Ka-50 III

[Nialfb]

I have a training mission I created for the Ka-50 III and it has worked fine for weeks. I have noticed recently that sometimes the B-13L rocket pod is present and correct on the inner pylons and other times it is missing! I thought it may have just been a VR issue but I have tested in both VR and 2D and some days the rockets are there and some days they are missing!

The only mod I have installed recently is the JAS39 but I have removed it and tested again and I still have the issue.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Hmm, I have looked into the mission, but wasn't able to reproduce your issue. The hort starting Ka-50 always spawns with the B-13L rocket pod for me

Hi QuiGon

Thanks for your response. Given that it all worked fine for you I carried out a repair on my DCS install. I did the repair on all files and before rebooting I also deleted the FXO and Metashader2 folders just for good measure- I'm not sure what difference that makes but I know it is something we should do after an update so it must have some effect

The result is that my rockets have re-appeared, YAY! On reflection I should have done a repair straight away but you know how panic can blind you sometimes! LOL

kind regards

Thank you for reporting back that you got it sorted out and how you did it! It might helps others in the future

hi QuiGon

As I said, just carried out a repair to DCS. If you go into 'All Apps' fro the Windows start menu and scroll down to the Eagle Dynamics folder, you will see a link titled "Repair DCS World OpenBeta". I usually select the option to check all files. It takes a little longer but I think it's worth the wait. Regarding deleting the FXO and Metashader 2 directories, these can be found in your Saved Games folder ... C:\Users\username\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta. I believe that if you delete them, a fresh version is created when starting DCS, hence the recommendation to delete them following an update.
