Title: help with new mission
Post by: joohn6 on June 17, 2010, 04:46:45 PM

I am trying to make a mission where I takeoff, no taxi just take off like you can in the game, because I have no rudder petals.  But I want a offline mission where I can fly in P51-D and Shoot down some JU88s and JU87s.  But I dont understand the tutorial on the mission editor.  I want to use the joust terrain. Could someone help me?
Thanks

my 2 cents: Now is a bad time to try learning the offline mission editor.  Wait until it's not broken.

What's broken on it?

Computer locks up when you hit a warp segment.

I've asked that if a mission runs smoothly and correctly within the mission editor and still crashes the game, then to send it in.  So far, every one has had problems with the segments.  If you are running an older mission that the original author has not corrected, you will get dumped.  I've put in code specifically to help isolate and problems within the mission.  But with each mission I get, and then correct, the warp segment does not dump the player.

I'll make a small basic mission with one warp segment.
If it doesn't work, I'll send it to you and hopefully you can tell me where I'm going wrong.

Has anything change as far as the procedure for creating segments, or for the entire mission?
A big thanks ahead of time.  I'm sure you can get me going with this

Just thought of this question.  Are people making the same mistakes with the segments or are they various errors?

Sudz, I tried to watch a mission within as you requested, but since patch 8 my M.E. crashes on startup:
