I'm having problems with the QMB plus missions. I've downloaded the missions pack and had them installed in the correct place but the game still giving the same "wrong target" message.What can I do?

Question were the mission pack for the QMB or were they for single missions? If it wasn't for the QMB then they won't work. On the other hand I have made missions for the QMB that didn't work because I selected a country on the map. This gave me the "Wrong Target" message. QMB maps are not hard to make, and can be easily check in the FMB for problems that will give you the error message. What was the name of the mission pack you downloaded? I would be willing to see what if anything is the problem.

It was the QMB pack.I don't remember it's name.But i'm sure it was a QMB pack. How can i fix it in the FMB?

Basically you need to have four flight paths for each red and blue sides. Best way to see what I mean is to create a folder, I call mine MyMissions. Make this folder in your missions file in the root directory of IL2. Copy one of the working QMB+ missions to that directory then load it in the FMB. Once it loads you'll see what I am talking about. You can then copy any mission file to your working folder and edit it to your liking . Just make sure you don't set a country or squadron, just leave settings in the default. Otherwise the mission will not load in the QMB.

Here is the mission naming style you must use:

For None then: AleutiansBlueNone00.mis ------ AleutiansRedNone00.mis
For Airbase then: AleutiansBlueAirbase00.mis ---- AleutiansRedAirbase00.mis
For Armor then: AleutiansBlueArmor00.mis ----- AleutiansRedArmor00.mis
For Scramble then: AleutiansBlueScramble00.mis -- AleutiansRedScramble00.mis

Please note that there is a red and blue mission. Let's say you create a mission "AleutionsBlueNone00.mis", you then just make a copy and change the Blue in the title to Red. If all was done right then when you place it the QMB+ folder and run the QMB, you mission should be there. If you try to load the misson and get the "Wrong Target" message you did something wrong. Just make a comparison of the mis file with a good working one with a text editor. You'll find out where you went wrong.

You can also create your own misson file names so long as they use the same format as the ones above. For example you coulld call one "AleutiansBlueDogFight00.mis". Just remember to copy the file to create the red mission file. Once you get your first mission to work you can go crazy and use any map and make any type of mission you want. Hope this helps you out.
