Create fast mission (from main menu) not working for CW Germany map

[sirrah]

When I try to generate a mission using the "Create Fast Mission" option from the main menu, it says it can't. Something with no starting airfield being available orso.

Anyone else seeing this?

 

(when selecting "start airborne" it works. I only see this error when selecting start from ramp or rwy)

The mission generator is effectively broken. Its planned to be replaced with a new one.

From a newsletter last year:

"We are currently working on a new Instant Action Generator (IAG) that will replace the existing Fast Mission Generator. The IAG is designed to be user-friendly and allow you to easily and quickly set up simple air-to-air and air-to-ground missions without having to use the Mission Editor.  The primary objective of the IAG is to allow more mission content in an easy-to-use interface. Missions can range from simple dogfights, to bomber escorts, to close air support missions, and much more. The IAG allows you to choose your aircraft, map, and mission type, hostile forces, and then tune the mission generation with more detailed variables. "

"The IAG is designed to work equally well across all eras of combat aviation in DCS and work with all aircraft and maps. It will be a free update to DCS."

This is old news and doesn't change the fact that it's a bug/not enabled yet. Same thing has happened with other 3rd party map releases.

Not sure why you say it's effectively broken though. I guess you're experiencing with it is different than, which is fair enough. I haven't used it much and has always been working for me, except for a few times on new map releases, that were quickly fixed. 

Cheers!

For now I just use the start airborne option and then do some editing in the ME to start from ramp. Not ideal, but still faster (and a bit more mission "surprise") than creating a mission from scratch.

 

We need that Dynamic Campaign ED
