@chazbotic sorry forgot to answer your question, it happens in SP and when my friend and I try my dedicated MP server. Still working on a mods list sorry busy day today.

@chazbotic okay tried a few of the other German army factions, Sturmtroopers and Fallschirmjäger. They both seemed to work, I think the error on my side is with the Wehrmacht faction. Something bugs out with them

the 101st airborne faction appears to have no config issues that i can see. can you please try them instead of US Army? the enemy or civilian factions shouldn't matter for this type of error when starting the mission.

whelp it appears that the "iconcar" error is a config issue in IFA3 AIO for several vehicles where it's pointing to a non-existent texture for the menu icon. this is a benign error and one that is up to the IFA3 author to fix.

tried duplicating on self-hosted MP server, unable to reproduce problem. the "iconcar" error i'm working on to fix, but unfortunately if i'm unable to reliably reproduce the error it will be very difficult to track down the bug :(

question: does this issue also appear when played on a self-hosted server? the IFA3 factions "US Army", "82nd Ranger Regiment", "Red Army", and "Wehrmacht" all seem to work when i test locally and on dedicated with AI.

@chazbotic It does appear to happen across any and all of the DRO and DCO scenarios, so it's definitely a faction based bug.

@chazbotic I've found that the two factions I've had the bug with are the only two I've tried to use. Sometimes the map will load, other times it will break as I described. US Army & Wehrmacht. I can put together a proper mod list tommorow. Mainly all the CUP mods, along with RHSUSAF and TFC.
And all compatibility packs. But that's about it.

Super glad to hear that you have plans to port more of the IFA maps over, I know for sure ones like El Alamein & Berlin will bring back memories from playing BF1942.

@REDBowl, @DeltΔ
thanks for checking. the one thing that i know has a high chance of breaking is if equipment is not held in the config for the units or factions, but if it is applied via script after spawning. because DRO uses a slightly non-standard method to "move" the players to the insertion position area, if the script is unable to create units or switchPlayer to those units, it will break.

im havin a blast with it. ill see if i can replicate that issue but for me its been pain free.

@DeltΔ
there seems to be a bug where some faction configs are broken somehow, but i haven't been able to reproduce it. which factions are you having trouble with precisely, and are you using any addons other than the strictly required ones (CBA, ACE, CUP Terrains Core, IFA3 AIO)?

also there are plans to port more maps as time permits.

hey man im finding alot of the time when loading with IFA factions, the mission wont load past the arsenal and insertion selection part. just loads into the scene where you select it all. otherwise, awesome port, is there any way you could port the rest of the WW2 maps?
