I downloaded ground objects (citroen, carrier, kubel etc...)
when I create a mission with my mission editor (in french) i can put them in the mission. When I play the mission they don'r appear.

When I open one more time the mission they have disappeared.

Can someone help me please

I really hate to ask this but are you sure you saved the missions after editing them? It's the same as any other file. If you make changes and don't save the changes you don't get them. I'd best see if I can make a few with the Cars in them. I've made carrier missions (very funny watching Zeros dive bombing when I forgot to give 'em bombs)with no trouble, but I seem to recall somebody else had trouble with the Kubel.

The mission editor does not work if you run SDOE in French. It is a very common bug: SDOE cannot handle extended characters in unit names like "Unité 1". "That's why the French squadrons are named "GC III 6" when the name should be "GC III/6". Only letters and numbers are allowed. Parsoft themselves fell into the trap: the "JV60 Trägerstaffel" was in the stock game, but try using it in your missions!!!

There is an excellent tutorial in French about mission creation, give it a look:

I should add the problem is not in the French version of SDOE, it is in every version. The only difference is if your language is set to English the unit names generated by the mission editor have no extended characters in them.

I just made a mission with the Kubel in it and it runs fine. However, I tried to use the Funky stuff and they didn't appear. I suspect I don't have 'em in the right place. I put 'em in the Vehicle folder. Not a big deal though. Have I seen any trucks anywhere or was I halucinating again? Oh, and it's rather amusing when you mistake a river for a road.
