Hi guys, maybe someone can help me. Whenever I try to design a mission I can not get it to run. It says "Error determining frontline period or player craft." I copied and pasted the frontline info but it just won't work. What are the necessary steps to design a working mission?

I think I might have figured it out, I placed 2 front line points using mission builder. I placed them anywhere, then I copied and pasted the correct front lines from the file and it worked. The only oddity left is trying to figure out how to properly set the correct altitudes from inside the mission builder.

Thank you for pointing that out, I didn't know that was there. Unfortunately that didn't answer my question as it is more geared for CFS3.

Hi, I have a few questions someone might be able to answer. I'm fairly new to Wings over Europe, in fact I've only had it for a day. Already I'm creating my own plane, and have a few questions. I copied the Mig-23M folder and renamed it Mig-23MLD (I'm trying to add this version into the game.) I'm having trouble removing the R-13M from the AI loadout. I changed the default loadout so it carries just the R24R and R24T, and 2 R-60M. Only the AI still uses the R-13M even though I removed it. What could I be doing wrong here? Also after downloading the flyable mig-23mod here I learned how to add flares and chaffs only the AI do not use them, is this a bug? One more thing I've noticed, whenever they fire the R24T, it self destructs shortly after being launched.

Thank you KCT! I think I finally have it. I was using the wrong version of the Weapons Editor.

Whenever I try to install a weapon pack, nothing shows up in game anymore. Not for any aircraft.

Ok guys the last suggestion didn't work so I went with Svetlinnh's idea and did a complete uninstall/reinstall. After that I patched it to the latest version, then added the Mig-23 back. The only weapon that showed was the R13 Atoll D or something like that. I changed the AttachmentType to WP,SOVIET then I was able to select the R-60M. Some further editing I got the fuel tank to show up. I still can not figure out how to get the R24 missiles to show up. The loadout file from the download referenced a missile thats not even in the stock game. R24R (AA-7C) and R24T (AA-7D) are in the stock Weapons.INI but the game wont recognize them.

Changing the weapon stations to WP ,SOVIET did not work.

Thanks for the replys guys. I downloaded the Mig from there, and also the Mirage factory weapon pack. I must have missed a step because I can not see any weapons in game. I even opened the weapons.ini with the editor and resaved the file.

How do you change the wing sweep?
