In my games 'BAT,VP', no buttons for 'save current settings,Load custom difficulty. Any solution?

[whistler]

All good over here.

BAT: Makes sure you are at BAT v3.7.X level and apply the MPC-PLUS v1.4 BAT-Patch.

VP-Modpack: always use the Full MPC-PLUS version. Follow install instructions (load order) to the letter.

[whistler]

You cannot change difficulty settings in the middle of a campaign and the Save/Load options won't be displayed in this case. Is this probably your "problem"?

[azura]

Thanks always for your kind answer. I always whistle to your wonderful mods.

Mission Pro Combo PLUS v1.5

Here we go with yet another little update. This time around we reviewed the FMB Object window.

Let's get this out of the way before you ask: the Export button does not export an object! That would be cool yes, but a tremendous work, if at all possible. The Export button allows you to export the list of objects currently selected.

Missioneers got used to the lists created by the "Universal static.ini checker" but lists generated by the tool sometimes are offset. Furthermore you always get raw object names instead of translations (when available). Mission builders use these lists to search objects by name. The new Export button generates the list directly from FMB and you will always get what you see.



I also took this chance to add Next and Previous buttons to facilitate navigation and the Object viewer inherited some of the improvements of the Arming Screen viewer implemented in MPC-PLUS v1.3:

- Right click on the left side of the viewer to rotate the object to the left by 45 degrees.
- Right click on the right side of the viewer to rotate the object to the right by 45 degrees.
- Right click to reset the view when the object is in animation mode.


Changelog:

FULL MISSION BUILDER

I've installed this last patch and like what I see.

However (and this has nothing to do with the patch - it's been in BAT for a while now), when you're in the "Edit Description"/"Mission Name" tab you used to be able to triple-click what text you input and it would highlight the entire block. You could then Ctrl+C that text and Ctrl+V it into the other "Edit Description" tabs as well as use it for the mission name when saving the mission. I used this all the time and really miss it. The current work-around is bypass the "Mission Name" tab, go to the "Short" tab, input text, highlight, and do the Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V thing on the other tabs. Not that hard but, after all these years, I find the flow is interrupted: Popup "Edit Description", input text in the first tab, highlight, Ctrl+C, go to the "Short" tab, Ctrl+V, go to the "Full Description" tab, Ctrl+V, open the "File"/"Save As" dialogue box and Ctrl+V the "Mission Name." Is there some way to fix this or is that buried too deep?

Really liking the new features even if I don't quite understand some of them. For instance: I've got to try the "Export" button to find out what it does.

Oh, and thank the gods for that change you made to the Right Click menu popup. Like others I've deleted or cut things when I only wanted to "Unselect All."

Edit;  Just found out what the "Export..." option does! Great stuff! I chose an aircraft, hit the "Export..." button, chose the default "FMB Aircraft" file name and went to see what the result was. Oh, man, I can see a great use for this when editing the aircraft list or any list for that matter. Beats the heck outta trying to make sense of the .ini files. Great work whistler - thanks a million.

Hi Bob,

Changing how the Mission Name field works was one of the very first things I did. Stock input fields are a tad sensitive and you sometimes end up deleting the whole line involuntarily. That's infuriating but, it hasn't happened in a while, has it?

I understand what you mean and what you want. There are no plans to release new versions in quite some time but I take good note for future releases. Perhaps a "Select text" button below the input field...

Regards!
