Unable to take control of the A-4E-C #606

Closed Elan456 closed 8 months ago

Elan456 commented 11 months ago

In the instant action missions that come with the A4, when the mission starts, I am immediately put into the F10 map and cannot take control of any plane.

In the mission editor:

  1. Place the A4
  2. Set its skill to client
  3. Select it when the mission starts
  4. An AI takes control the plane instead

I am able to see the plane and icon, and I can hear the music and such, so I think the installation was successful. I did install the visual studio libraries as per this Because the issue is so similar to when one doesn't install the libraries, maybe I installed them incorrectly.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Select the instant action for the A4
  2. Choose one of the missions
  3. Observe that you aren't flying the plane, and you can press F2 to see other A4s flying but can't do F1 to take control of yours.

What I have tried

  1. Restarting and redownloading the visual studio libraries twice
  2. Reinstalling the mod
  3. Many of the instant action missions
  4. I do have the F-22 mod working successfully

From the installation troubleshooting section of the readme:

If you can load a mission, but can’t take control of the A-4E-C, ensure you have installed Microsoft’s Visual Studio 2015, 2017 and 2019 Redistributable libraries. Restart your computer after installation of the appropriate libraries. For most users, this is vc_redist.x64.exe

I'll try installing those again

Elan456 commented 11 months ago

I uninstalled all my old Visual Studio Libraries and then reinstalled this one: Microsoft’s Visual Studio 2015, 2017 and 2019 Redistributable libraries and restarted

It's still acting the same.

BTW: I'm on Windows

very strange. maybe you can hop onto the discord server and we can try some things live sometime. do you have any overactive anti-virus or system scanning software that might be deleting, disabling, or quarantining the flight model file in the bin folder?
