it's not necessarily related to the HD mod - in this case i doubt it very much.
pink planes on spawn was happening long before HD mod was in existence.
usually, something is missing from the plane - weapons/3d, or such -
error log will indicate the problem, so that should be your first port of call.
post it up for us to look at.

Will do thanks Malone, funny how it works ok in QMB though you would expect if a file is missing it would affect the plane loading everytime. I'll post my error log later

[slipper]

quick update, i selected a different map and it works fine, the map it doesn't work on is CY6's Rhur map. How can a map affect if a plane loads or not?

[SAS~Malone]

slipper, when you mentioned that it's okay in QMB, that got me to thinking - what is likely happening here, is that you are trying to run older missions, that are making use of loadouts that have since changed, and this can cause that pink spawn that you're experiencing.
it's not necessarily your 'pilot' plane, but any of the AI planes in the mission, too, that have a loadout that has changed since the mission was first built.
if you have a mission with this problem, load it up in FMB and go through the AC loadouts, select a loadout from the existing list, save, and try the mission again.
it might also help to delete the 'lastmission.mis' file inside Single Missions folder, as this sometimes retains the incorrect loadout information.

Thanks Malone for your help i will give it a try, have not had anytime the last few days to look at it again. What you say about the loadouts could be true as i have been messing about with the java trying to get the AI to use the SM installation, if i get it sorted i will release a fix.

cheers

I have a new SAS TFM 4.12 install that works great, but somehow I've run into problems installing this beautiful 88. The plane folder is in SAS folder& all the files are also properly placed.In game play the plane does show up in QMB and elsewhere but when mission is started the plane that shows up is whatever plane was last played before I changed it to the JU-88G.Strange huh? I have never had this occur in all the years of my blundering through modded Il-2.Even the ( non 4.12)Ju-88C models added to the SAS folder after attemping the "G" worked fine.Any ideas?

Hello, Dietz, same happened to me, reinstalled latest version and OK. Perhaps a wrong file.

[dietz]

Just tried your solution but without success:I deleted the old SAS Ju-88G install, but left the files in place in STD,then I dropped new Ju-88G flder into SAS folder,held my breath & started sim...with disappointing same results.I would think removing file entries & then reinstalling shouldn't make any difference?

[rotte7teufel]

Same problem mr Dietz my ju88g6 look like zlin50 ..... i see it on the list but nothing else .....

[rotte7teufel]

Dietz go to reply #262 Singue get the right full working link in MA5.3/TFM412 but change all the stuff from readme in STD .... chrs

[rotte7teufel]

[dietz]

Ah, cheers singue, its just the 4.09 version you have installed.
