On the latest update for the F4E one cannot load the weapons systems on the aircraft on my system. Previous update works fine. Kindly check it out.

I don't understand. The weapons aspect was tested thoroughly and new features added. Please explain further, in what way doesn't it work?

When you go to load bombs, tanks or missles ect, they appear to be loading according to the shift 1 window, but they do not appear on the aircraft in any other view. Or am I doing something wrong?. It works fine in the previous version.

Do you have TACPACK? Did you install the TACPACK package? This sounds like TACPACK is active, but the F-4E's TACPACK package is not installed.

Do you have the F-4E TACPACK package? The F-4E TACPACK package and the ADV package are not combined like they are in the J/S.

When I say F-4E TACPACK I don't mean the actual TACPACK product from VRS, but our package that integrates it into the F-4E (separate from base package and ADV package). Without it the system will try to load weapons using TACPACK's weapon loading system if TACPACK is running, but will fail since it doesn't have the files of the F-4E TACPACK addon package.

I see from your other post that you now have the F-4E TACPACK addon. Since you got it after the ADV, you will need to reinstall your base package (uninstall first), then install the TACPACK addon, and then the ADV addon. That will solve your engine start problem as well.
