Love this mod! is it compatable with road56?

@Nettle I've find a workaround.
Basically, what you need to do is to add the models directly in the .asset files as it was before BBA, but with the new equipment names.
So if you had the "USA_fighter_equipment_1_entity" model defined before BBA, you now have to write the "USA_small_airframe_1_entity" in the .asset files.
Maybe I can explain it better if you send me a friend request and i explain it to you over dms

@FoxDie24. I'll let you know. I was thinking it might be tied to tech models or something-the previews it shows in the research screen.

I tried other solutions-weighting, removing models until the correct one was the only one left..no dice.

@Nettle I'm going to keep working on this mod and maybe they'll fix it one day. If you find any workaround please let me know.

Tell me about it. I went through the exact same thing.

@Nettle Well, now I want to kill myself.

At least the icon part of the mod is working fine. So maybe it was worth it in the end?

I want to die

Hey, I just wanted to alert you that thanks to, I assume, paradox being the paragons of functionality they are, assigning plane models doesn't work. It'll show in use best match, but when you see it on the map, it'll be the default model.

If you manually select the model in the designer, it functions correctly.

I was making a mod to do the same thing as your mods and it's an issue I ran into. I just tested yours, and it has the same problem. Nothing you did, just paradox being paradox. I don't know if there's a solution or not.
