Morning All!

I just got back into IL2 and did a fresh install and patched to 4.10 then installed the UP3.0

In the QMB I would like to use a channel map of some kind but can't recall how to add maps, or missions for that matter? Also I notice that I don't have a Mods folder in my IL2 1946 directory now like I did in my old modded install (still on my HD), is that the way it should be now?

Thanks for any help!

Ogs.

I am sure that there are full instructions on HERE

install Dark Blue World (http://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,16539.0.html, 3 files needed) and in jsg mod enabler activate #DBW_MissionPro Combo by PAL, it will add a lot of new maps into Missions/QuickQMBPro

Thanks VP! A little confusing for an old geezer so maybe you can help? Do I have to download starting at 1.1 and then each one up to 1.6?? Sometimes modding Il2 requires some masonic involvement to get basic install instructions! Cheers

Never mind I found the answer!

Are there any addon maps for the non-modded 4.10? I assumed we'd see quite a few templates, but they hadn't materialised when I last checked a few months ago.

We have a few QMB packs at M4T.

My Midway QMB pack should work in v4.10 too but I made it in v4.10.1.

There is a good guide on how to add them to the stock QMB too. (I don't know how much of this applies to the modded QMB.)

The best advice I can give is to create and test the templates one at a time so you know what template the QMB is loading, or not loading if it isn't working properly.

sorry I wanted to write 13 files not 3 (now I recounted and its actually 14 )

I think i messed up somewhere though! The plane and map selections go upward off the top of my screen so I can't see many of them but maybe its my monitor as I am currently using an old flat analog one? This is DBW 1.6

I'm at 1440*900 and I can see the lists except the 1st entry of the maps. Whoever made the mod probably tested it @ 1920*1280. Whats your screen resolution?

1024x768, which is the max for this monitor! Its only temporary and I'm ok with it being the monitor for now, I just wasn't sure if I had messed up the install somewhere! Cheers.

I've found fixes for this problem:

in the FMB there are a lot of maps in the list so you're gonna need this mod too, makes display font few points smaller:

(if it downloads as index.php as it did for me then rename the extension to 7z and it will extract as usual)
