Templates: Where are they stored?

[Bahger]

I need to delete some templates I've made (i.e. unit configurations). Can anyone tell me where to find these files or if it's possible to delete them in the ME? Many thanks.

C:\Users\username\Saved Games\DCS Warthog\MissionEditor\templates.lua

 

Make sure to back it up before modifying it!

 

Format is pretty self-explanatory I think, you'll want to delete from the line that defines the template name up to and including the line that says -- end of ["template name"]

As always, thanks, NDP.

just select it in GUI Templates & press the X next to it ?

Disregard above post. I was just mucking about with templates myself & for some reason after creating about four they do NOT appear in the drop down list of available templates. They have disappeared into the ether never to be found again.

 

In the GUI trigger actions they are there, just can't select em in Create Template icon menu. Weird.

 

anyone any ideas or another ME bug?

Relevant templates get saved inside the mission file itself. So they might be available for formations, but what the actual unit types in the group are not saved.

Nope, I create a group, formate them how I want then create a Template. Later when I want to use that template again its not there in the drop down list. Maybe I need to do a reinstall. Check yours first though if you don't mind.
