I think adding the offline missions to the 'Opening Menu' was a good idea. When I first started I always wanted to practice 1 0n 1 dogfight with decent AI and some where I could be the gunner on a bomber. Getting some easy fast action missions would help to draw in new players. Is there one where u are the gunner on a bomber with planes attacking that would be great for new VR players? or same with Tanks

Can't do tanks. I wish Hitech would add tanks (and ships) to the AI, but currently you can't.
When the bugs get wrang out of the offline system (hopefully next release), I plan on doing some new missions. I'll add some bomber/intercept missions when I do.

Thanks that would be great. I really like now when practicing offline u can start in the air without having to takeoff. I just found that not sure how long its been available.

The Offline Missions stuff still has a lot of broken, but hopefully the next patch will get that ball rolling!

A week or so ago u could go to offline practice and select NW at the tower and it would put u in the air. I thought that was a great idea for new players because they would get more practice time shooting planes and not get bored having to keep taking off. I know that I never liked having to take off each time. Am I missing something or is it that option gone again?

I'm not sure I completely understand what you are asking. What map are you referring to?
Have you tried the 40 4x4 dogfight missions I've added? They will air spawn you on a cold merge and get you into a fight pretty quick.
(There are still a few minor glitches, but they are mostly working. Stick to Allied for now.)

Its the Offline Practice now u have the Training map. The drones are just flying around in a circle. Can you up in the air instead of having to take off like when u select NW? I just tried the 4x4 seems to be working pretty well. Can you make one with the P47M? I think the 4x4 Dogfight missions will help to get new players good work! Should perk their interest looks great in VR

Can you make one with the P47M?
Yes. What do you want it to fight against?
-
P47M fighting against FW190 D9 would be great. Thanks

On it. I'm adding some more this afternoon. Check back this evening.

I have no real idea where to look for offline missions, but does anybody have one that is just a formation of bombers (b17s or lancs) flying straight at full throttle? I would like such a thing but have not had quite enough motivation to learn the mission editor.

On the main menu on startup now, Hitech added a button "Offline Missions". It lists available missions and you just pick one and click "OK" and it auto-loads the mission and terrain and starts it.
Can't be simpler now.
I think there are already a some older bomber missions now, if not I'll add one.
What do you want for the interceptor?
-
But make sure you go online first to pull the latest client. Hitech made some additional fixes today.

Sweet! Thanks. Ta-152 would be great.

Look for:
4x4 Dogfight P-47M vs FW 109D-9
I haven't tested it yet, so let me know if you have a problem.

If you tried that one and it was too easy, try again. I forgot to set the guns on the 190's. :D
I have to go check all the others too.

When u select N at the tower I see that your in the air but I don't see the drones. Can that be changed so that your over the base with the drones? Seems like new players would be better off seeing the terrain map instead of the Logo

So, those maps are only intended to be used with the 4x4 dogfight missions. The N air spawn was just a spawn I added when testing the look of my terrain.
I am considering putting the normal map in, but it won't be of help to you. There is nothing on that terrain to navigate to. It only has a tiny 10 mi circle that is even textured. Just enough for the dogfight. There is nothing else on the map. It has no other purpose than the host the 4x4 dogfights.
I think what you want is to click the "Choose Terrain" button on the front page and set your offline terrain to something normal like CraterMA. Hitech is going to make the offline missions not change the normal offline terrain in the next patch. Until then, sorry for the inconvenience of it switching on you.
