Possible to have DGen_mod downloading and installation steps set in a separate thread as sticky? So that one doesn't have to flip 60+pages to figure out how to install this?

The instruction on installation is attached to the generator, lies in archive in the form of pdf. The link to the fresh version is in the first message of a subject.

I've a problem with static planes. I can't get them with Italian national markings (three fasces). They still show German ones (black cross). No matter the type of aircraft: G.50, S.79, Fi.156... all!

It is necessary to understand, but the generator of a line of objects takes as is, without changes. Something changed at 4.12 with signs of static planes.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I'm playing 4.09.

From a few tests I did, I would point out that following statements in DGen_mod Manual v2.0.1.0 (page 3):

"DGen_MOD is based upon the source code of DGen 4.0.4.1 and is fully compatible with IL-2 Sturmovik version 4.071m or above."

and at page 6:

"The old date format is still supported for backward compatibility with the existing dynamic campaigns."

applies exactly with the only exception of campaigns where dates are NOT before 1941; I mean, some episode, like China 1940 in the old Ojcar's "Asia for the Asians", which uses the date format 00913 (13 Sep. 1940), lets start with first mission, but at its end program hangs. To fix, both dates in DB and OPS files must be rewritten in the new date format (e.g.  "00101:50814:A" in ops file ---> "19400101:19450814:A").

The problem has nothing to do with 4.12, it is a problem of the old DGen code by Starshoy. When stationary planes of minor nations (Hungary, Italy, Australia, etc.) are placed in the red and blue template files, their nationality is changed in the missions and they appear with German, British or American markings. If you need an example look at my Hungarian campaigns. I have placed Hungarian Bf-109 at Veszprem airfield, but in the missions they show German markings.

Good day to all!

Can somebody pls give me an  AllClasses.dat, AllPlanes.dat, Allweapons.dat  etc  for 4.10.1 + up3?

All links re broken for v1.0.0.3 (03/2012)?

Is there any way to change default fuel load for a certain plane?  For instance 100% fuel is rarely needed for P51s for most of the missions in game.  I'd prefer a 50% or 40% load for typical short range escort missions. Is there any way I can set that in any of the files?  User selectable fuel load is only available for squadron and flight leaders.  If you start your career at low ranks, you can't set it.

Not exactly. You can always edit mission in FMB, setting fuel quantity for each flight at will.

I see. Another question.  I edited Allplanes, allweapons and planedb files for P51D25na,which is not a stock plane, but a HSFX plane.  When I start the mission, I got a big pink propeller and no cockpit.  I know some folks have succesfully added planes into dgen mod.  Just wonder what I am missing here?

Unfortunately now it isn't possible. Also it isn't sure that I will make it in the future. It isn't possible to make calculation of necessary amount of fuel practically. The expense strongly depends on power setting, and addition in the generator of all parameters of all engines isn't reasonably labor-consuming.

Check arms for P51D25n in the AllWeapons.dat file. The incorrect arms cause such consequences.
