PWCG allows the creation of mission files without going through the mission editor provided by Il2 Great Battle. The mission can then be launched either directly by the Il2 client or by a dedicated server (Dserver)

After the mission has been played, PWCG allows you to retrieve the mission logs in order to value the events (object destruction, player states …)

Deleting the mission definition text file (*, Mission) located in the same directory also speeds up this download. The mission files created can indeed contain a large volume of data.
