Probably the wrong place but can someone help a newbie?

I've got 4.09m with UI1.1 installed, and I'd like to see this Malta map, along with a few others!

After I've installed a map, what do I do to actually fly on it? They don't appear in QMB, and now I've installed QMB+ that doesn't appear to be the magic bullet either.

Do I have to open the map in FMB, add an aircraft at a specific location, save it as a quick mission and then load it in QMB+?

Just want to check I've understood it right - I was kind of thinking I'd install QMB+, select my new map and an aircraft and off I would go. It seems not!

jeff, you need to access FMB from within the game, select the new map you want to fly in, then select your aircraft, either on a runway or in the air, add a few wp's, make sure you tick the "flyable" box on the first aircraft, then select "save as"; single mission/GB/Spitfire, or whatever you are flying.

Which raises another point - you will have to go in the il-2 1946 game folder/missions/single missions/GB - then you'll notice that there is no Spitfire folder in there (well what do you expect from Oleg Maddox :roll: - balance? ) Anyway create a new folder like Spitfire V, and save your new mission in that; ie jeff_SpitfireV_1.mis. You can reload your mission any time from inside the FMB and add enemy aircraft etc.

Then go into "SINGLE MISSIONS"/GB/Spitfire V (or whatever) and load your own mission. Don't forget to give it a name when in FMB!

Thanks Spud - I'd already gone in to FMB, added a Spit to a Malta runway and had a fly around, even added a few U boats in Augusta and a couple of tankers just outside, tried a bit of torpedo practice in a Beaufighter - all works fine!

I was just expecting QMB+ would eliminate all that, and provide an interface to say "map-aircraft-weapons-target" and then done. I guess not!

I just wanted to be sure I wasn't getting overly complicated - it seems not! Thanks for the hints tho'.

Cheers

6.S and anyone else who is interested; I've posted 2 mission packs over at M4T (specialised downloads section) using this excellent new map. "Guardians of Malta" V1 and V2. First uses stock Spit Vc, Second the new Spit Vc LF from here. The only other thing you'll need will be Canons airfield objects pack link;

patch 1.32 link does not work. Can someone help please??
Thank you in advance

[Kopfdorfer]

Would love both 1.32 patch and Bee's bomb cratered adjustment, but neither link is working for me.
Could anyone post different links please.

Thanks

Here's my one. Maraz's patches are pretty much built into it.

Bee, is there any way your tweaks can be overwritten onto Maraz's map?

The only reason i ask is that i'm ten missions through building a Malta campaign using Maraz's map but would like to substitute yours in without having to start from scratch! Also would like to limit the amount of Malta maps I have - I'm struggling for disk space and I'd rather not have too many variations of what is essentially the same map.

Hi Guy's.

Anyone know how I can get hold of the patch for this map? have tried the link in the first post but that just leads to a rather "Busty" blond woman hock: .

Pretty easy to do. If you take the load.ini, Map_F and actors.static etc. from mine and rename/replace them over Maraz's ones, it'll do the trick.

@ Panzerfodder, thats a problem????
