Dear Pilots and Enginneers i'm an absolute beginner in the art of customizing my favourite
WW2 Flightsim so . . . here are my two urgent answers :

+ 1 : When saving a mission under the mission editor the ground vehicles are never saved !
Why is the mission editor unable to save the "ground" vehicles ???

+2 : On the readme.txt contained in the planepack 5.3 there is mention of a ME-bf109 , i can't see any BF-109 in the game , nowhere . Why ?
Could you precise me the average size of the planepack 5.3 please because i've one of
12 Mo and one of 800 Ko . . .

Thanks by advance and good flights !

one the 109's, they are there, you need to install the larg file first (12mb) then install the small one, thats a fix for one or two bugs that were in the first release. If you have an older pack installed you will need to remove the following files:

Data15.par
Data15.par

It's worth checking if you are unsure. Also I beleieve the ReadMe file that came with the large file is incorrect, and it wont install right if you follow the instructions, although right now off the top of my head I'm not sure how it is actually supposed to be installed, I put things in the right place myself at the time.

As for the problem with mission editor, I'm not sure what the problem is there

All I can think of is you are looking for a mission that has 109's in them?
You will need to make one and choose from the many planes that have been added or simply edit a mission and change the planes.
You should be able to go into the hangar of sdoe to test the planes, you need to select the appropriate nationality first if you wish to see a 109.
With the editor problem, that's a new one on me. Are you saying that when you fly the mission you have created that the ground objects aren't in there at all or misplaced?
cheers

Avidjd, in that email you sent me you listed parfiles 14 & 15, delete or rename them as they are no longer needed with 5.3/5.3a.
Also, check that you installed 5.3a into your fightersquadron directory and not into fightersquadron\media\ as the readme tells you, it's incorrect ( as of the version I downloaded anyhow)
In the mission editor you should be able to scroll through the planes to see all the 109's etc, if not then it's definately a bad install of planepack 5.3
cheers

Spyder - check the 5.3a install as I thought the readme for 5.3a was the old readme from the orig 5.3 12mb install. If this is the case then the new 5.3a patch should be installed to the FS/media folder.

Thanks for your interest in my aerotroubles !
The main problem seems to be the corruption of the data12.par contained in my downloaded
"plane pack 5.3" .Winzip is unable to extract it.The report says :"error:invalid compressed data to inflate" and i say : ?
What a mess ! quel bordel !
Where could i find a complete one ?
Good Hunt and thanks again .

Yeah sorry Bulldog, I got it the wrong way around, install 5.3a to \Media not just to your FS folder when installing it, the readme was wrong.
Avidjd, I got my 5.3 from: http://www.3dgw.com/simfiles
cheers
