the radar thing is ground clutter
you cannot point your radar at the ground...

[Reclo102]

Fair enough.

but what about the missing textures?

[Kilo]

For air force/squadron markings, you need to check the "Markings on" button in the lower right corner of your arming screen. Although I know that the MiG-21 can only display air force markings, not squadron ones.

Hello! This is the problem that was found in all MiG-21s that have a cannon in their armament. The skin of the aircraft is not designed for a suspended weapon.

[Koty]

Yes, that has been pointed out a long time ago. Originally meant as a feature, but it only broke the thing. Currently (still) working on an update. But it's going slowly.


Now. As for skins, be more specific. What did you do? What do you mean by skins not loading? Are your folders named properly? Are there even any skins to load? In your screenshots I see skins loaded properly. If you mean markings - yes, try turning them on, that might help 

[Samurai999]

Not. I mean that on any skins for these planes, it is not the gun that is correctly displayed and only it, as shown in the figure (circled in red specially).

I am talking to two people at the same time.

The thing about skins was @Reclo

Don't try to separate the lines, like this :   MiG-21F         air.MIG_21F              NOINFO  r01   SUMMER    ( WRONG )

p.s. =  the 60% crash troubleshooter

This article assumes that you have a modded version of IL2 that worked in the past, but that now crashed to desktop at 60% load after you installed a new plane.

Here is a step by step guide that will get you out of it 99.9 % of the time.

The 60% crash explained :

60 % crashes are caused by a broken chain of reference between your games air.ini file, the contents of your mods folder, and your buttons file.

When you load the game, it boots up these three things in the following way.

1) It loads the air.ini file, which tells it what planes to load.
2) It then goes to look for these planes, first in your mods folder, and if it doesn’t not find them there, it looks for them in your game’s own “SFS” files.
3) When it finds the plane, the plane’s files will tell it which Flightmodel data’s needed for that plane. Flightmodel data is contained in the Buttons file.

If at any stage in this process, the game is told to look for something and it cannot find it, it will crash back to desktop at 60% loading time.
