Hello everyone,
I am playing BAT4.2.2 hotfix 4. I cannot get the Ranswers pilots for the F4U-1x to work. The log.txt file indicates an error in loading the hier.him, Enginex_D0.msh file is missing...I have read that several ones met the same issue, any way to fix that ? We have working pilots for B-25 and F6-F , a pity not to have them on F4U-1x... fighters...
However the Corsair aircrafts are working fine showing up the Ranwers pilots.
Here an excerpt of the log.txt when trying to fly the F4U-1C, with the F4U-1D same issue with the hier.him... but another missing .msh file...
...

... I don't know about BAT, but in my 4.09 game version there is no Engine
x_D0.msh file for the F4U-1C in its plane folder, and neither in Ranwers' hier.him ...
Only an Engine
1_D0.msh ...
you can try this :
1) Open Ranwers F4U-1C(USA) hier.him
2) Scroll down to :
