Easy Mission Generator

What is it?

A utility that will let you generate single, cooperative and dogfight missions for the IL2 combat flight sim. It is similar to the Quick Mission Builder in the game, but a lot more powerful. Missions can be customized using the detailed configuration parameters or they can be randomized. More information here.

What is it not?

A dynamic (single player/MP) campaign generator. These have already been developed by others. The underlying generator will not track planes/pilots/resources etc over time, although it possible to create multiple missions and run them in chronological order, with airfields and lines changing over time.

Installation & Usage

Download and extract the files to a location of your choosing. There is no windows installation process, just run the utility from any folder. When updating to a new version, just overwrite the existing files.
Every time you run a new version, please set the path to your main IL-2 Game folder (..\IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of Stalingrad) by clicking the text box next to "IL2 main folder" on the first tab.
The buttons and tabs in the GUI should be pretty obvious. Be aware that changing maps, fronts or game types may reset you configuration.
When clicking the "Create Mission" button the mission is created and then re-saved by the IL2 re-saver program. This can take some time, please be patient. A pop-up will tell you the mission has been created.
Single player missions will be written to ..\data\Missions, co-op missions to ..\data\Multiplayer\Cooperative and dogfight missions to ..\data\Multiplayer\Dogfight.

Known issues

WW1 planes may have trouble taxiing as they have no tail wheel or brakes. Best to use "Start from runway" option.
Due to Rhineland, Normandy and Western Front map size/objects amount the re-saving of a mission takes a lot more time.
