QMBPlus

Skullbiscuit Wrote:I've still got two distinct problems with QMBPlus. The problems do not seem related to each other.

1. Though we've been told, and Fly! seems to have shown with his conf.ini, I am still running into a limit in the number of maps I can display in the QMB pulldown. It seems that the hardcoded maps plus whatever maps I put into Custom0 to Custom13 are the ones that are loaded and show up in the QMB pulldown. My conf.ini excerpt is below:

[quick]
Custom0=Ardennes_S
Custom1=MTO
Custom2=The_Slot_07-43
Custom3=Balaton
Custom4=NWEurope
Custom5=The_Slot_10-42
Custom6=KhalkhinGol
Custom7=Bessarbia
Custom8=LAL_Lvov_autumn
Custom9=LAL_Stalingrad_Summer
Custom10=vp_Balaton
Custom11=The_Slot_10-43
custom12=Kiev
Custom13=LAL_Crimea_autumn
Custom14=sandsoftimevp
Custom15=The_Slot_07-43
Custom16=Prokhorovka

If I swap Prokhorovka from 16 up to 12 then it will load and Kiev will not (now in Custom16) So I seem to be running up against some map number limit. It does not matter what maps I swap in and out from the above list. From 14 on they are not loaded into the QMB pulldown and are thus not available.

I have read through this and other threads on QMBPlus and I cannot figure out why this is happening.

2. Problem two is I like others get the Data Corruption error when loading a quick mission. This same mission loads without a problem in FMB and plays, but will not do so without the data corruption error within QMB. I have attempted to be careful with correct names between All.ini, the mission file names themselves such as The_Slot_10-43BlueNone00.mis, conf.ini, and map.ru.properties. Yet I get this error on some sides and not others (I will get the error on a BlueNone.mis but not the RedNone.mis even though both files load within FMB and play without an error.

I tried to have more than 16maps in QMB and it works, I even made pictures and started to upload them when I spotted what is your problem. If I was looking more carefully I could avoid testing time :oops:

Look at this:

Custom11=The_Slot_10-43
custom12=Kiev
Custom13=LAL_Crimea_autumn

Can you see the difference between custom12 and Custom11 and 13 :lol:

Data corrupt error is generic error message and in your case it's either mismatch between mission name and map name or mission structure is not up to QMB requirement.

Remember, you can use any name for your Custom map, only thing that's important is that mission name matches that name, it doesn't matter which map you really use.

Example of Map-Mission pairs:

Map__________Mission Name

Test___________TestRedNone00
IHateMilk_______IHateMilkRedNone00 etc.

In both cases you can make missions on Smolensk map for example.

If your names are correct than it's best to make simple test mission, I did that at least once in this thread. Just make 4 flights for each side and try that mission. If that works than go to mission that doesn't load and find the error.
