coop missions?

[Oilburner 0]

OK..I've been playing around with the mission editor (3rd party tool) but I have a problem. When hosting a coop game, how do you choose what mission to run? (or is this even possible??). From what I can see it's only generated missions in coop play...

 

fyi this is WOE with WOV aircraft "sucked in"

You can not use user created missions in coop. Sorry.

Hi guys, I’m new to the “club”, so perhaps a little introduction 1st:

 

 

I’ve been a FS fanatic since the “golden days” of Dynamix & Microprose in the late ‘80s~early ‘90s (kinda gives away my age bracket...); played most major title since, but for the last 4yrs I’ve been playing mostly the IL2 series both on & off-line.

 

 

Recently a friend wants to try his hand on FS but found IL2 or LOMAC a tad too “steep” for noobies, so I decided to break him in on SFP1 instead. Problem is I’ve been away from this sim for so long it took me awhile to figure out all the latest updates & addons, but I must say I was pleasantly surprised at how the series has grown & matured since it’s wobbly early days, and I’m looking forward to spending quality time w/ the community!

 

 

Hokey, now (at last!) the question - is there any way to change the WEATHER condition in MP DF or COOP sessions? Here’s a sample from my <Options.ini>:

 

 

 

*SFP1 w/ SP4 on Hyperlobby*

 

 

 

[CoopMission]

 

MissionMap=DEUTSCHLAND

 

MissionYear=1962

 

ContrailAlt=7000.000000

 

Service1=Soviet

 

Service2=RAF

 

Mission1=CAP

 

AircraftType1=MiG-21F13

 

AircraftType2=MiG-19S

 

AircraftType3=Fmk6

 

AircraftType4=Scimitar

 

ScreenshotsDelay=60

 

StartYear=0

 

EndYear=0

 

WeatherType=BROKEN

 

 

 

…however, when we jumped into cockpits the weather is always “CLEAR” regardless how I change the “WeatherType=” entry. Wonder what I did wrong. Also, is there anyway to modify TIME, AAA Activity…etc. in MP? Appreciate any input.

Likewise, there is no way to change the weather in coop. In other words, what you see in the options and briefing, is what you get.

 

This is by design, and TK has stated numerous times that he has neither the resources, nor the inclination, to make it otherwise.

 

Sorry.
