Yes, this fixes it. Thanks!

 

Tutorial:

Download the Optionsdata.zip that ophiuchus attached above.

 

Unzip the file into your DCS World/Mods/Aircraft/P51D/Options folder.

 

Done, the P51D tab is back and you can set those options as you see fit.

ophiuchus:

 

Your installation had these options available.

Our istallation didn't. We didn't even see the P51D tab in the 'special' section.

 

The problem was the missing optionsData.lua file, which you had in your folder, while we didn't.

 

You kindly posted your file and solved all our problems :)

I used the auto-updater also for the 1.2.2 install and the options in the "special" tab are gone (P-51 and A-10C, did not check other planes).

 

Apparently the auto updater ate the special options. Wonder what else may have been gobbled up and never made it to my install?

 

Do any of the developers read these threads? How about an acknowledgement of the problem?

jjohnson241: use the solution described on the previous page. Download the .lua file, unzip it in the proper folder, problem solved.

 

Ofcourse, I expect ED will fix this so we don't have to do stuff like this in the future. But for now, a solution is available.

You can restore the P-51D tab by using the file that ophiuchus posted. A-10C doesn't have a "special" tab.

hey guys, i'm new to DCS and the P51....as i just read this thread, i noticed, that i was lacking these two options as well...so i unzipped the file, and now i have those two options...

so thx for that...but now i have two more questions:

-will such a "mod" cause any problems when flying online in regards of some kind of "cheating-detection"?

 

-should i get rid off(turning the slider to the left to 0) the take-off assistance, to have the most realistic FM?

 

thx for your answers!

 

EDIT: just for your information. i bought it just yesterday, the german disk version in an electronic store.installed it, and it seemed to auto update itself.when i was looking at the menu, i saw the "special" tab in the menu options, but when i looked into it, it was completely empty...

my P-51D rudder options tab was also missing and had to install that attached option file.. thanx..

:smilewink:

There was bug in 1.2.2 installer (no special options tab for Mustang), fixed in autoupdate 1.2.2.7122 (Nov. 12, 2012). Current version 1.2.2.7570 worked correctly.

Options available for 1.2.2.7570_69.exe. No, its still difficult unless your legs are moving against each other like a quick pendulum.

Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.
