New Mission Pro Combo MOD
includes: Mission Pro, Q.M.B. Pro and F.M.B.+
Final Full Release for v4.101m
I started again with the QMB that Team Daidalos corrected for the v4.101m (is one of the most modified classes I guess). I readapted everything to it and re-created the combo (thge FMB had small changes too).
Mission Pro Combo 4.101m: I strongly suggest you to remove my previous 4.10 versions of any MissionPro extension (QMBPro, MissionPro and FMBPro) and replace all of them by this single folder. What does it have:
MissionPro 4.101m reworked from the original classes. Now it orders the planes in the combobox for selection in the same way you have established for QMBPro (alphabetically or normal). It includes options for Single Missions, Campaigns and Net Missions.
QMBPro 4.101m a lot of different contents merged.
-Solved some problems present in the now corrected 4.101m code.
-The sort order for planes list is kept and switching between alphabetical or Standard you don't loose the planes selected.
-The main feature here is that
YOU CAN USE ALL THE PREVIOUS QUICK MISSIONS! My Mod is fully compatible with the old 8 flights QMB missions of 4.09m and previous versions while still being able to read flawlessly the 4.10m new 16 flights missions.
-I have included the folder Missions\Quick with all the previous QMB missions that were around in the forum arranged in individual folders as now are required to operate with 4.10m. In the case they were old missions with only 8 flights, you will see the next 8 as empty ones.
-The contents of "Mission" combobox are the actual names of the files present in the mission folder. So we are not limited anymore to the standard names: Airbase, Armor, Bridge, None, Scramble and Strike. You can have a DestroyCarrier set of missions i.e. and they will be listed. Nothing extra is required for it. Now the Target themselves are the current filenames of the missions in the corresponding mission folder.
-Changed behavior of stock 4.101m: when you select from the "Mission" combobox the one you want to use, it will display in Target the corresponding type, and if it is "None" eventually the Adv or Dis, etc.
F.M.B.+ with mousewheel zoom and functions to allow QMBPro and MissionPro to open the missions you are seeing from there.
Why a combo? -Because there are some interdependencies between classes that didn't exist before and now require that all are homoegeneous. I took the time to debug everything from my previous Mission Related MODs and make them clear.
What is new? Look at the next pictures and the description:
I made some additions to the basic interface of the Mission Pro, which are self explanatory and suggested by some of you:
Since this Combo Final Version the the Mission Pro now allow us to change the conditions of missions, plus decide if the parachutes (a fps impacting feature) will be enabled or not.
Now it remembers the last mission for Single Missions, Campaigns, Net Mission of every kind, etc. (this feature originally was only available for Single Missions and off-line campaigns). Now you can invoke (only for Single Missions) the Full Mission Builder (F.M.B.) from the Single Mission Pro, and it opens the mission you were working on. This F.M.B. is based on FMBPlus, but the scrollwheel operation and some minor extra functions required to make it available for other modules (QMB and Briefing screens) were implemented:
The QMB Pro now has a link to the F.M.B. too. It allows you to edit the Quick Mission that you are selecting:
It has a couple of corrections in the internal code and
per suggestion of Malone I added the comboboxes for the corresponding Countries for all the flights (this is an addition of this Final Release).
Full Mission Builder Plus+:
-Now it responds to the mousewheel for zooming In/Out while you are editing, avoiding you of having to use the scrollbar.
Since now all my MODs which include mousewheel zooming have a setting, requested by Frog, that in the [Mods] section of the Conf.ini allows you to invert the behavior of the mousewheel through the setting PALZoomInUp=1 (or 0).
