How to edit maps - _-JARMOPOWER-_ - 16.10.2008

I want to make new third runway for malmi airport in helsinki, gulf of finland map. Does anyone know how to edit it and make planes take off and land there? I have FMB+ so i have few runway pieces.


Cheers

FMB+ has the airfield ground plates available...which the normal FMB does not....but you need the fully unlocked maptools FMB to lay waypoints for landing and taxiing and parking...... otherwise AI cannot use it
If it is to be only for human players then you can go ahead...but there will be no airfield ICON to lock your landing and take-off waypoints to

I already downloaded that but where I can get waypoints for landing AI planes taxiing in the field?
Pack contains only map making java applications and few .BAT files.

Thats right! With Unlocked FMB, you can build maps, not create missions!

I have a folder in my il2 root....(or anywhere will do) called maptools
in it I have two folders....one called tools in which are the conf.ini and bldconf.ini for the fully unlocked FMB
the other folder called Normal has the conf.ini and bldconf.ini for teh default game or in my case the FMB+
with a shortcut to my desktop from the folder......to swap from one to the other i just open the folder i want and copy both .ini files then paste them in the il2 root folder which asks if I want to overwrite the old ones
after map editing I change back to the FMB+ set

Gulf of Finland maps actor.static file is way too big. You need to use actors cutter tool. I suggest that you read the tutorial section of map making carefully :wink: lots of info there!
