No, it's not necessary.

Install Lock On, after that install FC2. It's not necessary to install FC. After install FC2 and run the game you can uninstall lock on (this case works for download version, but I believe that it will work for the CD version as well). I prefer to maintain the lock on installed waiting for FC3.

I'm sorry my friend, but you are wrong, the Rshift + I changes the frequency even with a radar lock. I’ve made a track showing how to use the frequency change when lock a target. I forgot to put the subtitles, so I’ll put then on a .doc file. Texto LC.doc RShift+I.trk

Exactly! I forgot that! In the 90’s I read an interview of the squadron leader of the Brazilian air defense squadron about an exercise between Brazil and French air force. At that time Brazil was flying the Mirage III for air defense and France came with the Mirage 2000C armed with Super 550. France was trying to sell the Mirage 2000 to Brazil. The commander of the Brazilian squadron said that he was going to be used as targets for their missiles, so he started to training a tactic developed by the British named “Beam” (I don’t know if this is the correct spelling of the maneuver) to fight the Serbian Mig-29 with Harriers. In the exercise the result became equal to favorable to the Brazilian pilots, given a lot concerns and “little fights” between the French pilots. They knew that the Mirage 2000 was 1,000 times better than the Mirage III and that they had a superior training than the Brazilian (an air force with more financial resources has more training sections and are superiors, this is a fact). This tactic works because the psychological effect on the enemy that does not expect this. Against the AI it has less effect because the computer doesn’t get pissed off if he loses the radar contact, but this affects a human being. I manage a lot of victories using IR missiles against F-15C with aim-120 in a multiplayer game with friends using the “Beam”. My brother, who was playing against me, was pissed off because he couldn’t fire on me and I used the R-27ET or R-73 to destroy his plane. But when a person discovers what you are doing the maneuver lost more then a half of its effects. But it’s good against ARH missiles. Of course I’ll not tell how to prevent the maneuver!!!! :smilewink:

Hi, I’m sending these 5 tracks for FC2. The track named “Treino” is the use of Ironhand’s tactic. I have 2 tracks for FC1 of one shoot one kill against a fighter using ECM killing him without he shoots or 1 sec after he shoots. This tactic was funny because sometimes instead of hit your enemy your missiles hit’s the enemy’s AIM-120! :) I haven’t try it on FC2, maybe later I’ll try. This tactics that I’m sending will work against ECM, I haven’t made a track but I now that works. The problem of this tactic is that when you do not use it correctly it will give you a disadvantage against your opponent. That is why I prefer the Ironhand’s tactic. But it will always depend on the situation. R-27ER Vs AIM-120B.trk R-27ER.trk R-27R Vs AIM-120B.trk R-27R.trk Treino.trk

Hi, I don´t know why everybody keeps complainting about the su-27 radar and missiles. You just need to use a different tactic from the F-15C. After firing your missile you have to maintain your altitude at least 2,000 meters lower than your enemy, slow down your speed and maintain the income fighter at least 30º from your plane Look at the RWR to sustain this angle. Ok, when the enemy figther starts to maneuver to flee from your missile just press Rshift + I. This will change the radar pulse repeat frequency and will keep your radar lock even if the enemy turns 180º from you. I like to use too different tactics in a BVR encounter against a plane with the aim-120. You can use the Ironhand training (go to flankertraining.com) firing two missiles (which is the safer one). Or you can use a one shoot one kill tactic in a kamikaze way which works fine (every 10 times that I use this 8 times works fine, the other 2 I went into a CAC). This tactic will not work against the Aim-120C, because the enemy missile will reaches you before your missile reaches him. If somebody wants I can send a video with the one shoot one kill tactic using R-27ER, but I prefer the Ironhand’s training. You can use the Ironhand’s tactics with one shoot one kill.

AFAC: You can use planes with the role AFAC to illuminate areas in night attacks missions. In this role they will use S-100 (or other kind of illuminate bomb) in the target area.

Problem resolved. I bealive it was the coalition problem. Tks for the help :thumbup:

Yes, it has player-controlled aircraft . I have discoverd something: On the second mission I forgot to put one country on the red coalition. I'll try to change this. Tks

Hi my friend, "If you didn't do it yourself, then the default is for a range of 0 .. 100 for every mission..." I`ll try that "What I think your problem might be is simply the slightly strange way the campaign is presented..." That is the problem. When I select back the campaign it shows as inative and when I re-enter the campaign It start the stage 1 again "Also be aware that when you add a mission to the campaign, the game copies it into the campaign directory..." Yeah, I saw that, I`m sure thats not causing the problem. I`ll try your first tip. Tks for the help

Hi, "Did you assign each mission to a new stage?" Yes, 1 mission for each stage "Did you ensure each mission assigns a score > 50 points for the player so they proceed to the next stage?" Yes "Did you set the score range for each mission so they'll be selected?" How can I do That? I always finish the first mission with 100% of sucess (I made the first mission just for testing, I`ll change it to be more dificult) Tks for the help

Hi, I have a problem that I can`t resolve. I made a few missions with triggers and goals without problems. But when I try to put them together in a campaign and try to play it, I always have the same problem: When I finish the first stage nothing happens, It`s like I haven`t played the Stage 1 in the campaign and nothing changes on my logbook. Does anybody have the same problem? Can anybody give me a tip? Thanks for the help
