Just asked this and the answer was yes, but it will take some time.  Little more advanced to work with.  But it sounds like it is coming.

AHHH.... THe curse is back!  I don;t understand WTF is going on with 1.51.

I installed 1.51. But then OH-6A could not be armed, and could not have its payload cha nged except for fuel. 

Then I installed 1.51 patch, overwrote the scripts. That fixed the problem , and i could fly armed, functional OH-6A.

Now, for some reason the problem is back. I cannot arm OH6A, and cannot set loadout except for fuel.

I reinstalled 1.51, reinstalled 1.51 patch. 

Problem has not gone away. it retuened and this time it is staying.

Out of ideas!

I can only recommend a fresh reinstall of the mod. Make sure the game is closed when copying the files.

Also, you only need the main 1.5.1 download, not the patch, that's for those who had downloaded 1.5.0

Usually files don't get wanted without a reason. Do you use a mod manager or something like that? 

Did you follow the install instructions?

You need to copy the whole content of the the zip to the saved games folder.

This just gets better and better. Thanks lads .

Like mentioned. Use a mod manager for EVERY change you do. Even in Saved Games!

I don't think that this is a problem of a missing mod handler

No, no! I don't think so too. While with a mod manager you have full control of what and where it's installed. No double copies and less mess. No second guessing. The mod manager will also tell you if there are conflicts. With Saved Games mods, one could see it as kinda important, as it can't be repaird like the core.

Wait is the OH-6D happening?

[Slippa]

Lovin the new bits. 

I tried spawning from the barge with a test thing I had before the latest version was installed. It's gone a bit wonky, not sure if it's something I've done or not?

Saved a short track of my wreck-dive.

I downloaded it fine. Alas, I don't have all the mods.

You can edit .miz to disable the required mods to open it (like mission when you don't have all the mods included)

Yeah, but then I can't observe him "plonk"!
It's a track. (Yeah, I know I can rename to miz).

Open your track with Winrar or 7Zip and edit "mission" with Notepad++ find "[requiredModules"] and --end of .... you can delete or disable by -- or --[[     ]]

[Slippa]

Cheers, that track was taking forever to upload for some reason.

Think there’s only a galleon on there other than the Loach anyhow. When I try spawning from the platform it sinks into it.

No need to rename

You're missing the point. I know all that. But thanks!

Hi and thank you very much for the update. Looking always forward to new improvements!

Short Question, what exactly are the "cargo loadouts"? Is this only cosmetics for 3rd person view? I was not able to select anything of this in mission editor. I think I updated correctly to 1.51 because the jumping around with swimmers on ships is fixed now.

[DD_Friar]

Just look at the download page. They are all shown. You can pick them via the usual loadout screen. IIRC they are under pods.

I just installed the latest DCS 2.9.9.2280 MT. 200GB of longXXX download time,, then freshly reinstalled 1.51 OH-6, then 1.51 patch. I still cant arm OH-6. Even though I optn for wirecutters, and flare dispenser. There is no flare dispenser On/OFF in cockpit anymore or dispense button. This build of OH-6A is messed!

No it isn't messed up i have the same 1.51 available at the download section and it works without problems ;).

First thing:
Patch is not needed if you install 1.51 directly.

Second:
is a OH-6A_Weaponpack Folder in your \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Mods\Tech folder?

Do exactly as I wrote in these posts. Really, all you need to do is read with understanding.

No, you didn't. The mod works for all others. So, you did something wrong.

After unzipping OH-6A-Modpack_OH-6A_v1_51.zip you should see two subfolders, Mods and Scripts. You have nothing more to do as copying these both subfolders into your Saved Games\DCS folder. That's it.
