So I reinstalled AH, and went to install some offline missions, and noticed there was no Offmiss folder like there used to be. So I created one, and put the mission files in there. Went into the game, and there was nothing listed under practice missions. Went back and stuck the misson files into basically every folder that had the word miss in the name. Still no luck in getting anything to appear under Practice Missions. I reinstalled AH, and repeated this process again with no luck. I checked the box to display all missions on all maps too just in case I hadn't selected the right map, still no luck. So has the capability been removed? Or am I just doing something horribly wrong?

I believe the offline missions go in the missres folder..
You will also need the corresponding terrain to go with the mission...

Tried that, still no luck.

Support for offline missions has evolved over time. You can get instructions for recent versions here:

if it says ...mis file, add it to your offmiss folder and go to editor and load the mission. then go to file and build res. the file will go to the folder it needs to be. but if its a .res it should go to the missres folder.

Serenity, offline missions run off 2 folders now. The missres folder is where the .res file for a mission goes. The misstemp folder holds a missions .mis file which is used by the editor to work on a mission. To play a mission all you need is the .res file in the missres folder.

I'll try dropping stuff in there again when I get home. Thanks Ranger and Cooldued.

have you made sure that you have the correct map pulled up?

Yep, and even checked the "Show missions for all terrains" box just in case.
-
if you have made sure that you have the .res files in the missres folder and that you have the correct map loaded then i am completely out of ideas.
the only other thing i can say is double check to make sure that the files that you have in the missres folder are not .mis, as the game does not recognize them any more.

It might be because those missions are so out-of-date from many versions ago. Try my Attrition mission since its up to date & I know it works fine. See if you have better luck using a current mission.

Will do. You could be entirely right, I've been out of AH for quite some time :(
