Method:

Download PD Mission:applause:: Make sure you have a Zeppelin in your "aircraft" if there is one in the Mission. If you load the game and get a mismatch, it will be because the item is not in your OFF Folder, ( ie Zeppelin). You must add item or delete that mission because it will not accept the mismatch.

Select> Pilot > Missions > Multiplayer > In the Drop Down Box > click on arrow R box > Combat Missions Available > Accept > Multiplayer > Host Game > Select Mission > Select a Game Name ( anything, mission name?) > Select a Description (any) > Start Game > Select Team - Allied or Axis > Join > Assignment ( aircraft - pick team leader if multiple similar aircraft > Switch to Position > Click x right corner of drop down box > Armament - select fuel, etc > Ready to Fly > FLY.

That's it!

Ah, footnote: Flew DRI in AMMO DUMP ATTACK by CAMELS, ---4 Victories and the Allies were thwarted :d

Are you sure you've got it right? British eh?

OK suppose the mission is downloaded etc..

The chain of actions..
Select > Pilot> Missions> Multiplayer>in the drop down box>click on arrow R box > What??:isadizzy:
I cant get here..
I can select a pilot? enlisted one ready and waiting.. but my screen has then Missions or Multiplayer or Campaigns or leave or what??
I cant see how to get from missions to multiplayer? and obviously dead in the water now the rest of the sequence is meaningless to me..

Of course if I pick multiplayer and then go into the cross with black and white ribbon under missions .. I can pick up some of the rest of the runes but then I get tied up in admin for on line login etc.. after trying to start game.. its all a bit :wiggle: tedius..
 
Ok, so here you go

You have a PD, or somebodies Mission DL in your OFF "what if" or you may put it in your "training" folder. My home PC keeps the mission in my Training folder, whereas my Laptop keeps it in my Training folder. Go to OFF,select your pilot. CLICK on MISSIONS. When the screen loads go to the dialoge box. In the upper right corner of the box, click the down arrow. The box will say " No current Missions available. When you click, it will then give you a selection of Current Misssions Available. Highlight this, then click ACCEPT.

Follow the rest as per the Post.

Cheers,

You can also do the same with missions generated by the campaign engine. The option is there. It will load the last mission generated in campaign. You may enter campaign, generate a mission and do not fly it but get out and fly it from the multiplayer menu. You can then chose any seat available from either side. You can actually fly it with your friends on line if you wish too. I once flew a campaign generated mission in coop with a friend on line.
