This is strange:  I have listed the Beaufighters I have in my game, and I am grateful for all them.  The weird thing is that the DAP only showed the full loadout after adding the Coastal Command ones.  And weirder still, the only load that seems not to function is the 90lb rockets on the DAP version of the Beau.  On all the others that have that load out it works.  So like the doctor who said to the kid whose complaint was that his arm only hurt when he raised it, "Then don't raise it,"  I guess I will only use 90lb rockets on the other Beau's. 

It is more about wishing I knew why the game works that way than whether or not I can use 90lb rockets.

Is no one else experiencing this in QMB?

Thanks for your work on the new Beaufighters, it's a beautiful plane and it's horrible that you can't look behind you in the stock version - so I really do appreciate your efforts.

Like csvousden above me I have a problem with the DAP though, your other Beaufighters all work fine for me. I get the "mission loading failed: null" when I try to equip with 90lb rockets. I get a "null" fail for 2x250lb bombs also. Last error is a funny one: in default config (and only in default config) I seem to get an extra two .50 cals with four in the right wing instead of two (like British Beaufighters). Is there anyway to fix these problems? Could it be a problem with conflicts on my end?

Hallo, i think the problem with 8x90lb rockets is the little space in DAPBeaufighter class (671EFA006CB765F6) after 8x90lbsRP. I changed it with an Hex Editor to something like 8x90lbsRPs (last letter can be anything , s is only example ) and now the rockets work in my game (4.09). If this works for you in 4.10-4.12  maybe Docholiday or a java guru can fix it more professional. Thank you for this great plane, works in 4.09 to.

Barney,

you are the man!  Thank you. I did exactly as you recommended and changed the file with a hex editor, and it works!  Wow, I so admire people with skills--all of them from the original makers to the tweakers who make it possible for regular old schmoes like me to to fully enjoy this game.  I am so grateful to you all!

Many thanks, Doc.
Haven't checked the loadouts, but she does fly in my 4.11 setup!
