Was wondering why I can't save a mission in campaigns. I'm pretty sure my static.ini is as up to date as are my maps, but when i play a campaign misssion it won't save it, so can't move on to next one

Having a mission save during campaign play has nothing to do with your static.ini
The static.ini is for adding object mods to your install.
If in FMB and "building a mission" and you can not save ,then it is iether a missing object not installed,info wrong or missing ete
but it has to do with building a mission in FMB and not being able to save the .mis file

If you are not advancing in your Campaign,then your Campaign settings are not allowing you to advance.
There is a Manual.pdf inside your root folder of IL-2,it is the instruction manual on how to play the game.

You may just not be successfully completing your mission Goals,that would prevent you from moving on to the next mission.

You could start a campaign and then go into "Difficulty" and click "next" in lower right corner,up top on right is "No instant success"
Toggle the light off,now you will advance mission to mission in the campaign with out having to successfully complete the mission goals.
