Hmm... something doesn't seem right
What version of the game are you running ?

Maybe check what you have against my info I use in the config and the Bdlconfig
The shorcuts and the config.ini will not prevent Map Editor from working if you don't have the shortcuts,you would then just not have the shortcuts to use is all.
If you are having trouble it is most likely something in the Bdlconfig that is not quite right.

The config.ini needs under the [Hotkey Builder] header, a few shortcuts added to use in map editor.
Just add to the bottom of what is in that section

[HotKey builder]
Ctrl C=copy
Ctrl X=cut
Ctrl V=paste
Ctrl D=Damage
Right=bridgeRight
Left=bridgeLeft
Up=bridgeOffset+
Down=bridgeOffset-

Here is my Bdl.config

[builder_plugins]
(builder.PlMapLoad)
(builder.PlMapActors,sectFile=com/maddox/il2/objects/static.ini)
(builder.PlMapAirdrome)
(builder.PlMapLabel)
(builder.PlMapText)
[builder config]
bShowGrid true
bShowName true
bViewRunaway true
bShowTime true
bShowArmy [3,true,true,true]
iLightLand 255
iconSize 16
bViewBridge true
bAnimateCamera true
bActorOnLand true
bSaveViewHLand false
bShowLandscape true
iLightDestruction 128
iWaterLevel 191


Also in the root folder of IL-2 you will need to create a folder named Maps
Inside this created Maps folder you will then need a folder with the exact same name as the map you are going to work on.
When in the Map Editor FMB and finished working on your selected map you must only use the "save" function,(never use "save as") always just "save"
When you have clicked "save" it will save the updated map files into your created map named folder that is inside the Maps folder you created.

You could try copying and pasting my Bdlconfig info,I know if there is a "added space" or anything in that file extra that it will not work.



Hopefully this will help,let us know how you made out
