Wolf359 Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 I would love a stand alone mission editor that can be loaded on a different system than the main software, set up missions and transfer the files to the flight sim pc. Is there something like this out there? Is it even possible if the modules aren't installed on that mission editor system?

jmarso Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Don't think this would be possible in its current form, because the ME accesses game assets and such (liveries comes to mind as an immediate example), so in order to have a standalone editor you would have to duplicate a lot of game assets anyway. Someone from ED undoubtedly has a better grasp of whether it's possible or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf359 Posted November 24, 2020 Author Share Posted November 24, 2020 Yeah. The more I thought about the logistics of it all, things like modules and assets seemed to be a couple of major issues.

wraith70 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Wondering if you can't just install the DCS core app and not install any of your modules. Save the mission files then from the game PC, load the .miz file from a shared drive to the other system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Save the mission files then from the game PC, load the .miz file from a shared drive to the other system. Then the question is can you place your aircraft (module) in the mission. It would be nice if the mission simply requested it when loading in sim. Does that make sense?

It doesn't care what you own. You can set any 'valid' module as client. When it comes to flying the mission, you can only choose aircraft/module you own.

Bunny Clark Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Yes, you can place and manipulate any aircraft type in the mission editor, regardless of if you own it or not. You just won't be able to fly it if you don't own the module. Oil In The Water Hornet Campaign.

Wolf359 Posted November 28, 2020 Author Share Posted November 28, 2020 What you WILL have to do is download the maps you own. Otherwise, you don't have the base terrain to start with. All else seems to work fine.
