    How to fix missing pilots/crew?

    Guys,
    My MAAM TBF conversion plane had missing it's pilot, what should i do to add this missing pilots/crew ? i check the mdl with hex editor there's pilot texture pointed which named Pilot1.bmp and it's in this plane texture folder but seems there's no model inside the plane, is this conversion failed? or i missing something?
    Thanks

    Maybe the crew texture has a alpha channel that makes the crew invisible?

    I'm having the same issue with Milton's A-20. The pilot figures are xml coded. To a gauge possibly?

    Still experimenting.

    The TBF/TBM crew are coded to load with startup and unload at shutdown. They are lost in conversion, unless one is willing to put the model through an extensive scasm surgery for major modifications. Nevertheless, you can compensate by adding the crew via the dp. I used Wolfi's pilot and gunner for the fix.

    Here ya go...as useful as it is, i'm surprised that this package isn't in the SOH library along with his Japanese pilot. Hope you can pardon me for uploading here Wolfi.
