Title: Been Gone A While
Post by: Dichotomy on December 29, 2009, 09:09:21 PM
But started getting my stuff together.  Downloaded the new version but lost all my old offline missions.  I need a couple of 'easy' ones for starters.  I used to love the one where it was spits vs 109's.  Will this still work with the new version?   I remember Ranger had one that had 39's and 38's going against Japanese bombers and zekes (I think) I'd love to play that one again as well.  So do the 'old' offline missions still work if you dl the terrain

And the first SA that says use 'search' will get a personal visit from my dog.  Not that she's mean but she has fleas and incontinence ;)

Howdy Dicho :salute  Missions run off the .res instead of the .mis file now, so the old missions are obsolete unless they've been updated (very few).

Here's the one's I know work fine right now:

Rune's Rumble 1 & 2
NOE Strike(fun one by Stixx)
Bloody Gulch Redux
Palm Sunday Massacre (haven't tried it yet but he says it's fine)

To update an old mission, open it up in the M.E. and hit File->Build Res Library.  This will automatically place the .res file in your MISSRES folder.  Don't do that with any of my old ones though, because all the audio stuff I used makes it hell to update, unless you want to move umpteen million files around.  If it's a "basic" mission with no audio files or anything, it's easy to update it using the method described.
