Hi can soemone tell me how to swap planes within a mission? For example, I have the TopGunSimulations practice trap missions and would like to substitute the Superbug for the standard Hornet. I would also like to swap the Superbug for the Intruder in the RAZBAM missions. I looked in the mission files, but could open the only files that seemed likely to contain the relavant info, which was an SBP file.is this easy and possible? Or do I have to write a mission from scratch. And how do you do that? Cheers, Mark

Its quite easy Mark.The easiest way is just to check the allow changes box on the first page of the Mission or,Open the .FLT file with notepad find the following entry; for example in the Carrier Practice Mission, and change the aircraft to the Title of the Aircraft that you wish to use from the aircraft.cfg file.[sim.0]Sim=FA-18 Hornet 12The Superbug should work in any of the standard Hornet Missions. Not sure of The Intruder Missions, but you could give it a go.Don't forget to make a backup copy of the original missions first.Trevor
