Also, if you are making your own mission, you need to make a waypoint as LANDING waypoint in order to have ILS working for that particular airport...

Thanks Beppe Did you get this info from Baltic Dragon?

Great, I am still having a blast with the first campaign, but as soon as I am done I will move to this one! Love the Mirage!

Hi Baltic D. I was wondering, did you update your NTTR campaign as well for the new radio presets? (And if so, is there a li k to download the update?) the minute I am finished with the other campaign I will move to this one!! Great campaigns!!!! Thanks Jefc

Thanks BD, good to know we are not crazy... :-) Can you CONFIRM that the files for download in your other link are the most up to date ones (those dating 12-13-14-15- november)? thanks (I guess mission 07 will have a new date?)

of course it has a preset rotary... it works very normally...

By the way, BALTIC DRAGON Could you have a look please at this post https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4119636&postcount=116. I found a potential problem in the replacing of campaign files in the OB of yesterday...

Thanks so much BD Thanks christofsweden but I dont 'enter' anything.. Just right click on the rotary until preset 6...

Hi Baltic Dragon and all the great team at Razbam I tried a couple of times before reporting but there seems to be a bug in mission 07 that is worth reporting here... I do everything as fragged until I turn around at waypoint 4 (back to waypoint 3 as prescribed by Berger). I receive the call from Artemis that we should contact HOTEL 5 on green radio channel 6, which I do (switch to channel 6 on green radio and use F10 menu to contact HOTEL 5) but from that point, I dont receive anything.:(.. after a dozen seconds, I hear my voice (player) say 'copies'... but I didnt hear (neither get a written transcript in the left upper corner of the screen as usual) from any body... I tried twice... same problem exactly at the same place... unless I am doing something really stupid, I think this is a bug... very unfortunate because I am having a lot of fun with this campaign!!!... any hope to see a correction for special download BD? thanks JEFX

Yes!!! just tried and the Presets Freq. are now the same as in the Briefing card!!! Thanks BD P.S. MESSAGE FOR BALTIC DRAGON: is it normal that in the campaign folder, some missions have been updated to 11/27/2019 but some remained at some 2018 date? I have left those of 11/27 in the folder but for the older ones I have copied the files you offered for download a few days ago in the campaign folder (they date from 11/12-13-14-15)... are they going to work ok? or do you have a new set of missions from 11/27 that we can download please? thanks

FUN challenge Hi all In the last couple of weeks I have been frustrated just like manu of you about the difficulty to find the ennemies on the radar and to keep them visible there... Of course, one could say that we have been spoiled with either 'magical' radars (Lockon or FC3 style) or just more accurate BUT much more modern: F18 and now F16... As some people mentioned here, the Mirage's radar is much older... Just made a quick experimental mission with F10 menu that spawns different enemy groups (hi, medium, low alt, far, close, hot, cold, flanking, etc...) and tried the radar settings more seriously... It is very cumbersome if one has to look down on the left side to find the switches (under the throttle) in order to try 1-2-4 bars, etc... I am sure in the real aircraft, pilots do this by feel just like we use our wipers or cruise control in our car:-) Then, I mapped 6 keys of my keyboard (close to my left hand) with 1-2-4 bar scan and 15-30-60 degrees azimuth scan! and I tried my mission again using these settings (together with the range + or - and the antenna elevation + or - that are already bound to my HOTAS) and it was great fun because actually it feels like hunting! I start wide and with 4 bars, far in front, and contacts appear briefly but like ghosts disappear as quickly... then, I switch quickly to 30 degrees azimuth scan in their direction, adjust the antenna range and go 2 bars scan or even 1 bar scan and I can keep them now and focus on them... really a lot of fun (and challenge!)... really like hunting!

still buggy presets in green radio OK just downloaded the new campaign files and opened one in the mission editor and I can CONFIRM that they have the right radio frequencies for the briefed preset numbers BUT... when in the cockpit, the new GREEN RADIO is still off by one preset number... (the RED radio is fine). That means that in order to trigger the right voice overs, etc, we have to dial the preset numbers that are ordered by our lead or other assets, but then we need to manually edit the proper frequency in the green radio (without changing the preset though, I tried yesterday and couldnt hear the AWACS voice for example)... looking forward that RAZBAM fix this bug for immersion. Thanks! JEFX

??

are the radio presets still broken in this version? (or wrong or changed)? Yesterday I tried to play mission 05 (old 2018 version) and because of the change in the radio, I used manual entry of frequencies, but some voiceovers didnt play (AWACS for ex.)...:-(

Ah ok thanks a lot!!

Question: if we download the update to the campaign in the MIDDLE of playing it, will we loose the state of the progression? will I have to start all over from start? thanks JEFX

MERDE!!! I am in M05 now and just when Chevy 1-1 says 'merde' because he has an hydraulic failure, my DCS does another CTD... merde... Hard to play, each mission does CTD at a point or another... will try again in a couple of days, lots of real life work ahead... will report...:(

OK managed to do it all of course, the freq. presets dont work any more but if we dial the freq manually it works fine. thanks another great mission!

I have a problem with mission 4, (RADAR): everytime I try it, after about 45 minutes into it (around the time I intercept the An-26 )my DVS CTD!!!! very frustrating because of all the time it takes to get back to that point! Sorry I didnt record a track... Perhaps it has something to do with the updates on the Mirage? I dont know... Great Campaign!!!!! very immersive! One suggestion, there is no frequency for the AWACS listed in the docs (Mirage Caucasus M04.pdf) ???

Strange indeed that they dont put more priority to solve this issue and give us a save option either 1) where we want or at least 2) at certain key points as vhsousa said... You know, I am a professional musician and I have tought a lot of younger players and one of the KEY points of becoming a better instrumentalist (would be the same for high level athletes or... pilots...) is to convince one to practice over and over only the most important passages and NOT start the piece from scratch everytime one makes a mistake... the most basic notion of training...

Best explanation I have seen Frederf. I think there is a mix between a confusing design AND a potential bug? Nice to see you here! I had not seen you around for a while. JEFX

Did you ask the ground crew to equip you with them prior to takeoff?

One thing is for sure, the new JVN (NVG) was a much more recent upgrade to the M2KC! See this article of 2016 in Air and Cosmos, it says that Which means grosso modo that the NVGs were developed in the 90's but not fitted on the M2KC but rather reserved for the bombers. They were finally fitted on our beloved 2000-C in 2016. (Correct me yoyo if this is not true?) That means that your question, @bies, is really pertinent because I always took for granted that our Mirage was a creature of the mid-90's, 2000 at the most... ???

@DimitriKozlowsky This https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=245165is the post you need to read for the explanation on the new functionalities of the PCA. If I were you I wouldnt criticize the Mirage documentation. Baltic Dragon's manual is one of the best I have seen in a long time!!! And Chuck's guides are amazing!! I think the only way to learn really is to take for granted that we are the ones missing something and search for the answers. Not putting the fault on the product, especially with such a great module!!!!

je vois SVP, I sent you a PM
