[Fireball]

Some mods allow you to pass parameters to players by putting entries in the mission (.mis) file. Examples include my WindConfig, Carrier_Takeoff, and BombBayDoors mods. You create a [Mods] or [Weather] section in the mission file and add in whatever parameters the mod requires. The frustating thing has always been that, after adding these parameters, if you go into the Full Mission Builder and make any change to the mission, all these parameters get deleted from the mission file and you have to re-enter them.

This mod will prevent the FMB from deleting the [Mods] and [Weather] sections from the mission file when you edit the mission in the FMB.

You still have to manually add the parameters (wind, limited external views, etc) to the mission file to begin with, but you won't lose them when you later go into the FMB and make changes to the mission.

- STEP #1: Inside the rar file is a folder named 'SaveMissionParams_1_0'. Copy or extract this folder to the MODS folder in your IL-2 game folder.

- STEP #2: In your main game folder there is a file named 'bldconf.ini. MAKE A BACKUP COPY OF THIS FILE, then open bldconf.ini with a text editor (Notepad) and add this line to the end of the [builder_plugins] section:

(builder.PlMisMods)
