I know all the focus is currently on optimizing the game for better performance.

But just a quick question,

It seems that the Quick Missions don't have the same variety of options that the Original IL-2 had.

What's bothering me the most is that I can't just create my own Quick Mission from scratch (Mainly for free mode), where I can;

* Select the Map I want
* Change which Country to fly for, I can change the aircraft, but I can't change the Country. So I'm flying an ME-109 with British Roundels. (I know you can
*Overall no Aircraft Customization
*Choose a Target such as Airfields, Bridges, etc
*The only Advantage/Disadvantage options are pre-set with the default missions.
*Can't choose your Altitude (Only for Pre-Set missions)

Sure it's called quick missions for a reason, and that's what these pre-set missions are for, but I still like the degree of setting up your own mission without having to use the Full Mission Builder.

So will this sort of customization be included in future updates? Or are these options available and I'm just not seeing them.

Cheers.

Yeah a quick mission builder like il2 1946,
"* Select the Map I want

Maybe in a future patch :)

I had this same problem. Here's how to chose the country:

Click on the pilot of the country you want to fly for.

But i absolutely agree on the rest of the features. This is actually a step back from the old QMB.

+1 - also would be good to be able to customise skin, and ammo loadout here as well

hi all,

if your in the quick mission and double click on the aircraft you get to select a different one. right?

Trying using the menus at the top and selecting by country say italy and them fly. Does your aircraft still have german decals, is german? I posted this as a bug but am interested if anyone else is getting this.

Also i made changes to manston saved it and it appeared in the left menu with picture and all. (good) The bad part is when i went tto the mission editor i tried to findthis file but wouldnt show, even went manually into the directory and couldnt see it. (WTF) I dont think its Vista premissions, Bug?

thats
