IL-2 Korea Mission Editor Beginner Tutorial

[Sketch]

This is a short series I created on the basics of the mission editor for IL-2 Korea. You can learn more from JimTM's Mission Editor Manual and asking questions in this forum. Happy mission making!

Thanks, but if you're creating a "Beginner tutorial" then everything should be from scratch, meanwhile you've already created a mission and you don't tell me how to create it from "0". It would be nice to see an actual tutorial for a "beginner" but when you upload files, you create a mission from scratch.

Someone tried to create something here from null, but the Spanish language means nothing to me. 

I think it would be great if someone created an actual "beginner tutorial" for even a simple mission, loading the Editor, adding individual files, creating an own airfield, the player's plane plus a few AI wingmen, setting targets, creating a flight path, the mission objective, a simple trigger—succeed or fail (destroy the target), and returning to the airport. This would be very useful for newcomers. In English for sure.

Hi Yoyo,

I do start at zero. I assume the viewer knows nothing about the mission editor. I begin discussing the entire mission editor interface. Then, I talk about the shortcut keys, how the events work in the editor, as a sequence of events I like to call "The Pulse", and other nuances the editor has - before I start making any mission.

You can skip to video 3 in the series; where I begin making a very simple mission.

Okay, that's true. I just watched it this morning without sound, still in bed, so I saw what was in video 1. There's actually more in video 3. I'd love to watch the whole thing. I don't know if you know this, but you don't need to download any templates from the forum. The first patch brought these files (there is also a note on the Forum), so you have everything up to date. Besides, I think FULL SCENE brings everything; you don't need to upload the files one by one; this one is enough.

@Sketch, did you put anywhere in the videos that CTL+S is your friend? The editor is more stable than before, but there are still occasional crashes.

Glad there is an editor as I’m just recently starting to make my own generator for general public use and have had extreme difficulty otherwise determining appropriate runway placement of flights.

Thanks guys for the feedback. Hopefully players interested in building missions will look upon this forum and see your corrections to my videos.

This has been great @Sketch
