Static objects not visible

[Tomcatter87]

Dear community,

I recently joined in the multiplayer hype, I'm flying together with some friends, I've rented a server from Fox3 solutions. So far it's working like a charm. However I noticed something: Whenever I place static units from mods (like VSN EA-6B, A-6A or the folded HH-60) on the carrier deck or at an airfield, it's not visible. Neither for me not my friends, we all have the necessary mods installed.

There's no problem using mod aircraft as AI units, strange enough. So I do not think that the problem is that the server wouldn't accept mods. Is there a fix for this? I'd really appreciate if I could build some nice carrier deck and airfields with all those wonderful user created assets.

I'm seeing this issue as well. I just want to create a decent looking FARP for my Apache crews.

Happening in singleplayer too. I reported in the mission editor bugs forum with no acknowledgement.

Are the mods also (properly) hosted/installed on the server?

(Explains why it works in SP mode, it uses your own mod files)

No, the server that allowed upload of mods costs way more. The way I understood it that as long as everyone has the according mod installed (which was the case), they should be able to see it. We had no problems at all using mods as flying units. Only the static objects don't show up.

One way that might work is to place the mod aircraft as AI units but set them to uncontrolled. Gotta try that out.

Furthermore it's not a mod issue at all as it also happens with default DCS static objects.
