External Fuel Tank

Post by jlaarchbold » Sun Jul 21, 2019 12:56 pm

Hi Milviz Team,

I have the External Fuel Tank option ticked in MVAMS but i cannot get the Wing tanks to show in the simulator.

I couldn't find mention of it in the manual, but I may have missed it if the answer is buried deep.

Any advice?

Also can I say since the last SP this thing has been performing brilliantly. I am hitting 40-60fps consistently in high dense areas- Thank you for a much needed aircraft.

Regards,
James.

I have this same problem. Disappointed there's no answer yet since the OP was 7 months ago...

I can add that I have the box ticked in MVAMS and that the tanks do not appear when I load the aircraft up however they will if I reload the aircraft.

Are you using the skis version or is it happening on all variants?
(External tanks are forbidden on the skis version)

Wheeled (Base) variant. If I reload the aircraft or load another aircraft (default) first I will get the fuel tanks to show but if I load the Porter straight from the scenario screen they do not show up. I'm not overly bothered it to be honest since the plane still holds the fuel, but for the sake of bug reporting, that's my experience.
