this problem has nothing to do with DGen campaigns and/or BAT 4.2.3 as you can see from the screenshots

BTW on the two missions you attached only the SU-2 and the Ju-87 have bombs all the other planes are on default

Yes is not related to DGen as it is a different engine....

Just to be on the safe side I modified the mission and and added drop tanks and rockets to the IL-16



You also need to be aware that if close to the enemy AI fighters will tend to drop tanks and bombs immediately so no surprise if droptanks don't show rockets however should show normally

Try the campaign and play a couple of missions. Sometimes it happens in a mission but if I restart that same mission it works fine or vice versa. I said it happened randomly but definitely very often. I reinstalled and it continues to happen. I actually switched to VP and it hasn't happened once. Not even ONCE. So yes, the issue is related to something with BAT, at least on my end. I only have WAW and the WAW DGen for BAT linked in the WAW Red Core page. I installed everything correctly TWICE. You guys should start that campaign from scratch and try a couple of missions to see if the bug occurs, if you want to test further, because it does on my end no matter what  ]dontknow[

These are my settings. I don't actually play in third person or with icons. But I always take a look at friendly planes and enemy planes while I auto pilot my way to combat. Just in case you want to try with the same settings. I have personally moved on to the other mod but just in case anybody wishes to try.

I'm on BAT 4.3.

Just to be on the safe side I modified the mission and and added drop tanks and rockets to the IL-16

Is not this, I take a look at them at the start of the mission while they are taking off or not engaging yet.

I guess I should have mentioned what version of BAT I'm using. 4.3 with the first hotfix. This could be very relevant, specially if you guys are on an older version.

You have a specific problem in your setup as all those screenshot have been taken in BAT 4.3 with latest hotfix. I even added drop tanks and rockets to try and replicate your problems using both QMB and your missions to no effect.

QMB was never affected. Like I said, playing just one mission might not be enough because the bug doesn’t always occur. My setup is exactly the same on VP and I have no issues over there. But that's okay, I moved on. Thanks for trying to help anyways. I'm gonna miss the huge catalog of planes from BAT at the very least.

BAT WAW module is more resource demanding than vp modpack so depending on your system capabilities settings that work well in VP will not necessarily work in WAW

Hi!

I have tested your missions and added loadouts to every plane....no plane at mission start have missing pieces...only the Lagg-3 series 4 have missing rack for bombs and droptank....but these racks are missing in the modded plane , I have check it in QMB and the racks doesn't shown....

No other issues at all....apart missing skins or default skins for planes....but this could be due different paintschemes skins...

I noticed that in mission 10805 the I-24 are immediately in contact with the enemy so they jettison the droptank almost at mission start...few seconds....I noticed it as I immediately pause the game and look what happen at the other planes in airstart....maybe this could be the issues of missing bombs and DT....rockets IIRC aren't jettisoned at enemy contact...
