I now have more specific information on my trying to change to the P-40 ( non-historical ) in the Singapore campaign. When I first tried it, in the Dgen_modERROR.log, I got the following last line:
The plane P_40SUKAISVOLOCH2A nation Holland not found in the list AllClasses.dat or Singapore2planes.dat
Well, the only trouble being is that the P_40SUKAISVOLOCH2A is indeed in the AllClasses.dat file!!
It's in there as shown here:
P_40SUKAISVOLOCH2A;true;FIGHTER;0;0;0
The second and biggest problem in the error code is it says it's not in the Singapore2planes.dat file either. Big problem because there is no such thing as the Singapore2planes.dat file. I did a search starting at Ubisoft root directory for the game and no such file is found anywhere.
So then what I did was to create a Singapore2planes.dat file from scratch and force the issue. I did not know where to put it so I put it in both the DGEN folder and the new MOD folder under the DGEN folder, figuring an extra file in either folder would not hurt anything.
This still does not allow me to fly the P_40SUKAISVOLOCH2A in the Singapore campaign though. Now the Dgen_modERROR.log file shows a different error and one even more perplexing.
The lines as follows:

Now I'm really stumped because I don't understand how the PBN1 aircraft and that particular squadron have to do with anything!!
Just thought this might help Asura figure this all out. Hope it helps. I do hope we retain the old ability to change to whatever plane we want to, no matter how historical or not it might be.
