Can i use a MOD map in default campaigns? - elot - 23.07.2009

Hello,

I have been looking several weeks now for a solution, but i still cannot find it (also not on other forums like mission4today)
I have installed several MOD maps and i can use them with the missionbuilder etc.

What i really would like to do is use some of the maps instead of the build-in ones.
So i would like to replace the default map fo Normandy with the Uk island with a map that includes a part of the UK on the island location (fly_zo made that one i believe).
But how can i replace the map from an already installed campaign?

This is probably a noob question, but i cannot find the answer, not with Search, not by hand walking through the forums etc.

for example Normandy41 campaign uses these files (I got EnjoyR dgen patch installed plus Boe + OSTfront so I do not really know if theres a Normandy campaign in the stock game):

C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\IL-2 Sturmovik 1946\DGen\Normandy41Blue.mis
C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\IL-2 Sturmovik 1946\DGen\Normandy41Red.mis


I think you only need to change

Quote:[MAIN]
MAP Normandy/load1.ini

to

Quote:[MAIN]
MAP fly_zo_BOB/fly_Z_normA_load.ini

inside these two files and it will work, didnt tested it though...ships will probably have a hard time so its best to modify their routes too. Maybe somebody already made these changes.
