Mission and msnbin files

[WWSittingduck]

Know a lot of pilots do not put both of these up on the server, just the msnbin file

This is fine, except when we run into the issues like we did on the last update.  If someone wants to re-run an old mission, they need the mission file to resave..

just something to think about

I remember back in the ROF days that putting the mission file up created a lot of joining errors.

We spoke tonight about taking the .msnbin file, copy it and rename .mission

Let me know if it works for you, I've never had problems.

Thanks Fawlty, but that will not work for this problem.  Not sure why it works out like this, but with the new update, the .msnbin file has errors.  The mission file for that mission does not...

So while renaming the msnbin file .mission might allow me to open up a mission, it will still have errors, and get kicked by ME.

Ya your right , it's the msnbin file is causing the problem so renaming it doesn't help matters.

This practice only works pre last update.

I wonder if there is a simple text edit that will fix this.

BTW have you had joining problems at all like we used to have uploading the mission file to the server. If not that's what I'll be doing from now on?

[WWFawlty]

I posted a question over on the forum about doing a text edit to the msnbin file to get the mission to load, may come in handy.
