I'm having a problem in the Squadron Leader campaign... Maybe because I'm loading a pre-patch save,

but now some crew members are missing from my planes. They appear grayish (their portraits are blacker, it would be more correct to say) and their positions on the plane are empty during the course of the mission).

i had both pilot and part of the crew disapearing as well "flying dutchman" like :D The plane was still piloted. They re-appeared after a time skip, so it seems to be a display bug only

Yes I think so. You can force them to appear by selecting them with the shortcut (instead their portrait) in another part of the plane other than their station.

Same issue here, black screen and crash. I've checked file integrity, didn't solve it. I deleted the game and reinstalled...now it works.

I haven't time to check if it works yet, but I had a corrupted file since the last update. You should check it out too and probably solve some problems.

Crew members disappear, mostly the Bombardier. Probably having a walkaround or a ♥♥♥♥♥ out of the bomb bay but I can't select him or use any of his stations when it happens. So probably not just graphical.

Just started experiencing this too. I've never seen this happen before. I've gone into the game files and disabled the "UseCrewMemberHighlight" setting, but the crew still disappear. The biggest problem for me has to do with the Ball Turret Gunner, who doesn't seem to be fixed by the shortcut key workaround at all. The only way to access the Ball Turret is by entering the Action or Instrument View of another position and then pressing the numerical shortcut button for the Ball Turret.

Definitely not just graphical. It seems like clicking the crew members causes them to get stuck in a limbo state in which they are unavailable for commands, similarly to when they are moving to a new station.

Edit: Also, timeskipping doesn't cause them to reappear for me.

this can be fun: click 3, the pilot is alone in the cockpit, press 4, the co-pilot is alone in the cockpit.
Repeat quickly :D
