Lost the ability to select skins in the briefing screen

[pilotpierre]

Up until yesterday once in the briefing screen it was possible to select and view custon skins in the QMB when selecting "Plane Setup" in the final screen before starting the mission.

 

Now when "Plane setup" is selected it brings up the skin that was selected with just the "Accept" Button available.

 

I am talking about the final screen before starting the mission that has 3 choices

 

Abort Mission. Plane Setup Start

 

Have I inadvertantly hit a key that has taken this option away?

Hi Pierre,

Check it again. I just did a quick mission on the IL2 and I can choose the skins from the second screen also. No problem on my end.

Regards,

Peter

Am not famoliar with any setting that would turn it off, i too have had no issues, although is the skins tab under 'plane setup' option that you have available?

 

Sounds stupid but try a re-boot and check again,

Tried rebooting and turning the computer off completely to no avail. I can select from the complete set of skins for each aircraft on the initial screen. But, as per my original thread I get neither the original skins nor the custom skin selection drop downs on the second screen. Selecting 'plane setup' just brings up the hangar and a/c with the skin I selected in the first screen.

But when you get to that hangar screen with the skin you selected, do you not get the usual options in the top right corner that let you select skins again?

 

 

What does that screen look like for you (maybe post a screenshot)?

Sorry, not at home at the moment, but you are correct, in the screen you show I am not getting the drop down menue in the top RH corner.

All is well and I am a dick head. I must have ivadvertently hit the little tab that hides that screen.

The good thing is other people can always learn from our mistakes

LOL it seem this little tab seems to be very elusive from the older crowds not seeing it. Because some of the guys in the 71st have had the same issue. lol
