Need help to unlock FMB
#5

Oscarito Wrote:Easy,

My game is V 4.09b1m.
Both Config.ini and Bdl.config were typed exactly as yours.
I`ve created the Maps folder with another folder named ''Crimea'' inside it but...
Situation did not change! The FMB section is completely empty after launching the game and not even the ''Exit'' function is active. The hole thing remains a mistery! Now I`m trying to find out some another mistake I probably did. :roll:

Thank you for reply!

1st thing is,
can you revert back and just use the stock(vanilla) Mission Builder FMB ?
Have you a BackUp Config.ini and BackUp Bldconfig to use/try ?
if you do then use the Back Up Config and BackUp BldConfig,
to try Vanilla Mission Builder to make sure you at least have the FMB functioning properly first.


A few checks>
Inside MODS/MapMods/Maps do you have an all.ini ?
This would be needed for your Map list in FMB,it makes the list of names in the FMB

Here is a default all.ini>
(The link is inoperative)

I keep a Back Up config and a Back Up BldConfig,in a folder just outside my root IL-2 folder.
I can swap these back and forth with my Map Editor Config and BldConfig to go back and forth from Map Editor to Mission Builder FMB.

Start from scratch again and get the vanilla Mission Building FMB up and running,
then try again as it seems there is an issue with just FMB

Try the default all.ini and place it in MODS/MapMods/Maps to see if it will produce a list of map names in the FMB for you.

If all of the above doesn't help you may need to re-install your game.

I'm not sure but I thought there was a download link available somewhere with direction to make a secondary install into a default Map Editor game.
It is a trimmed down version of the game to only use for Map Editor,I have gone this route and it works good and prevents the trouble of corrupting your Map Editor by installing Mods or whatever.

I believe it was KevinP who made this MapEditor install and it may be available through his map tutorial or his Map Building thread.
