Guys,

I cant get the Normandy or Normandy1 maps to show when selected in my QMB? The mission loads but the map dont show just a few trees and blue ground (wish I knew how to attach pics here!) - Normandy2 loads ok no probs.

I noticed all the QMB missions point to Normandy/load1.ini, so why only Normandy2 works i've no idea? I tried changing them to load.ini and load2.ini but still get the same problem.

Is this a known issue with DBW 1.7 or does anybody have a solution?

you do NOT attach pix here. you put them on imageshack and link them here
post some, i would like to see what the problem is...

Same problem here, (DBW1.7) all work fine except axis qmb's, am sure there was some issue with a mix up of Normandy maps when 4.10 patch was released, perhaps some of the Qmb axis missions were inherited from that problem? Am sure will be sorted in time with next update.

Cheers Dakpilot

**EDIT  I tried using the missions from DBW1.6 pasted into 1.7 and had same result with Blue missions on Normandy and Normandy1**

I couldn't reproduce this bug in clean DBW 1.71 since my Normandy/Normandy1 QMB missions run OK for both sides.

Thus, we'll need more information to know what is happening and to fix it. Could someone post the error message in LOGfile?

Hi Birdman,

Heres the last portion of my logfile - to long to post the whole thing.

Am working on getting imageshack setup for the screenshot

It happens with any plane I choose BTW

Unfortunately, your logfile doesn't have any error that could explain the issue, everything is pretty normal there. Your screenshot just indicates that your cockpit is not loaded, but there can be many reasons for it like some missing cockpit file (should leave a clear error message in logfile), some plane not loaded in mission (should also leave some clear error message) or faulty mission file.

EDIT: I tried exactly the same mission and I now get that bug also, other missions just worked and I managed to test many of them without loading this broken one.

[PO_MAK_249RIP]

Must be a bug somewhere mate, I also have problems with the FokkerG1 too, see my later post. I wonder if the trimmed down air.ini might be causing this?

If I select the Fokker it throws up the same map issue on all maps - cockpit not loading ??

OK, problem found and fixed, it was a bug in the mission file.

The fix is simply to open Missions\QuickQMBPro\Europe_Normandy\Europe_NormandyBlueNoneA00.mis and Missions\QuickQMBPro\Europe_Normandy1\Europe_Normandy1BlueNoneA00.mis and change playerNum 1 to playerNum 0 there. Those Normandy and Normandy1 mission sets are also 100% identical, so you can remove one of them.

Thankyou Birdman,  all sorted now, with the "Re-issue" of these repaints, Normandy is a pleasant quick map for a little QMB action

Hi Birdman,

I solved this by disabling my DBW/Mapmods folder and adding Flushys repaints to my DBW folder instead. Incidentally I also altered the Player 0/1 prefix after making this change but havent checked whether its made any difference.

Cheers,

Mick
