KylerHolland Posted February 18, 2020 Posted February 18, 2020 (edited) Hello, pilots! Here is a prologue: I used to play IL-2 1946 and I have good memories about it. In that game I created a mission where a player gets assigned a special task to perform a stealth sortie to intercept and destroy a single airplane (Ju 52/3m) with a high ranking commander on board. A key thing in this mission was that it had totally alive world around the player. A player starts with a parked airplane on a very busy airfiled - cars and trucks move around, airplanes taxing, landing and taking off, many vehicles just parked everywhere. A player has to do a difficult stealth type of mission deep inside the enemy territory where there are many enemy fighters flying around, landing, taking off and so on. So, the player must avoid contacts. I also created a front line where tanks battling, bombers bombing some small town and the player might see all of that from above. So, I guess you got the idea. A mission where player feels that he is just a part of the busy world and there is more than just him and the target he needs to destroy. I am just wondering if there are any similar missions with a big diverse world? Can you recommend me something like this? I'd love to play that kind of mission Edited February 18, 2020 by KylerHolland 1

It is an enormous amount of work, and if you do not do for pleasure, nobody will do it for money as nobody except very few would pay for it.

But for the beginning you can try this tool first: It let you generate missions, very similar to what you've described, literally within a few clicks. It handles Singleplayer, Coop and Dogfight missions. For Example: The dogfight missions (wich also can be played as singleplayer or coop with some friends) can have AI Bomber groups that try to destroy some targets on your side while you hunting for your own targets. Just play around with it and watch the results, after a short time you will get a good feeling for it, and will be able to make complex missions very easy. Take also a look at the "Tips and Tricks" section at the download page. Maybe a little later, in combination with some new earned ME skills, you can fit the generated missions more and more to your needs. This will help a lot to get these skills: Edited February 20, 2020 by CorvusX 1
