db_countries not working (since update)

[Aelius Maximus]

Does anybody have similar issues regarding the db_countries folder since the latest update?
This folder enables you to add flight/ground models to countries in Mission Editor, unfortunately replacing the latest one (update always resets the entries) with a backup does not work.

I have exactly the same problem. Wanted to fly against a F-14B as Russian plane, but since the update it's not working anymore, only the original list of Russia's planes is available.

Could you let me know once you have found a fix?

beside db_countries.
I think the unit entry.lua under each aircraft definition scripts can override ME settings.
eg..

{Shape = 'F-14B' , Name = 'F-14B' , DisplayName = _('F-14B'), Countries = {"USA", "Iran"}, WorldID = WSTYPE_PLACEHOLDER}
make_f14(f14a_settings('F-14A-135-GR',_('F-14A-135-GR'),{"USA", "Iran"}))

those aircraft entry script override the database settings.
you can find them under coremods and mods folders
they are part of modules files and IC protected.

Thanks. However, I cannot see all flight models in the CoreMods folder. I can't see for example the MiG-29 folder, can you?

D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\DCSWorld\CoreMods\aircraft

The Mig-29 is in the SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\DCSWorld\Mods\aircraft folder on mine, probably why you can't find it, although I do have FC 2024.
