SimappPro some module icons disappeared?!

[MickyG]

I just noticed that the plane Icons in SimmappPro under "Game Peripheral Display" /MFD for M-2000C, AV8BNR, F-15E and F-15E_WSO disappeared and are replaced by placeholders.

Why is this? Is it a bug? I really don't like this, please let me know how to fix this!

(I suppose it has something to do with the RazBam issue? But I still want this fixed!)

 

[MickyG]

I just found out that after setting back my backup everthing is okay, but then after updating DCS the icons disappeared again!?

So that problem is related to DCS and hopefully a bug that is gonna be fixed by DCS.

You are going to have to give us more details, also attach your dcs log. Also a picture of your SimmappPro icons

Do you own the modules with the icons missing? 

Thank you

I noticed this yesterday. AV8BNA,M2000C,F-15E AND F-15E WSO.

They still open in lower screen to select MFD location. I don't have these air frames so I don't know if they work or the icons is just missing

It sounds like simapp pro is taking the icons from in game, but for people that do not own the modules the icons were removed from game main menu because they were confusing people trying to buy them when they have been removed from the store. If you own them and have them installed they will show. 

This is intended, so simapp pro may need to change the way it fetches the icons. 

thank you

@BIGNEWY

I own all those modules and they are installed. Still not showing up in SimappPro.

What is a solution to solve this?

As mentioned I think sim app pro needs to check where they are taking the icons from. 

If its from the DCS demomods folder they wont be able to fetch them as they are no longer there. 

The icons will only show on the dcs main menu for people who have them installed as the icons are in dcs root, mods aircraft folder. 

 

 

[MickyG]

Well as I said I own those modules and have them installed.

Just found the icons and Copied them to my actual installation. problem solved. thanks!!

hello. check to see if there is an update to the external program. DCS cannot be responsible for something they did not create. there are lots of other users having issues over the years with simapp pro. check this post too.

 

[MickyG]

Problem is solved. (Have a look at this topic in winwing) Icons were removed by DCS since the last update. Luckily I still had them in a backup and copied them to my actual installation.

Dear Christian,

The icon files are stored in the DCS folder in C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\DemoMods\aircraft.

The Icon files for those modules were removed by Eagle Dynamics since the last update. 

Luckily I had a backup from my drive with the previous version of DCS with those Icon files and I copied them to my actual DCS folder.

That solved it and the icons show up now like before. 

[Arcc]

Indeed, the icons have disappeared from this file.

I really own these planes

 

But I did not make a copy of this file.
I lost the icons of my AV8B and my M2000.

Thank you

Christian

Is that okay @BIGNEWY? (because of rights of those files)

Hi

Thank you, d'ont bother yourself

I copied the icons from the file DCSWorld Openbeta/Mods/aircraft .... Skins

it’s the same ones. the files 'entry' and 'manifest' are just missing. The icons are well presented in Simapppro now
