I tried the mk 49 mod 1 against the SA 2,3 & 6 in direct and loft at different ranges following the wrcs and non of them would track. When I did loft they would be vertical looking at the target but the fins wouldn't move and they would hit within a out 50m fwd or aft of the sam. I did the same with the mk37 and it worked.

Hey everyone, I'm trying to learn the AGM-45 but can't seem to get it to track in loft or direct. I read a post that says there is a bug that is stopping it from working but I can't find out other information. I did manage to get the mk 37 to work on a SA2 on single player but not multilayer. Any help would be great, thanks.

hey everyone has there been any updates as to if you still have to start dcs with the MT exe, or if the exe in the normal bin folder is MT as well?

To set path you need the combind arms dlc, if you have it than when you select a unit in the f10 map a small window will pop up in the bottom left corner with the units details like speed, alt, ect. Just right of those detail will be a set path option and once you click that all you have to do if left click somewhere on the map and than if I remember right, you have to right click and a new waypoint will show up

i have some what of a workaround for the refuelling issue, see the below topic for my fix.

i have added a some what of a work around for both mission 2 and 3 in the below, hope this helps.

Drizzt1700, i was able to get smoke to refuel but it only work because i dont think i did the mission as planned. so first when you are meant to join up on smoke i didnt do this correctly as i flew of the carrier at 300ft 250 knots for 7nm, than went to catch up to smoke but just missed out on making it to him before wp1, which trigged the next part for me to go to way point 2 (i didnt get the formation or fence in checks yet). i got the radio call about going to 32000 ft and headed to wp2, i flew with low to mid afterburner so i got near wp2 sooner than i believe you are meant to. while this was happening i noticed that smoke was not in formation with me and was flying towards the main objective NW (wp3/4) between 15-24000 ft. because i was in afterburner he never went past me and we made it to the area of the tanker around the same time, remember he was doing his own thing and would have just kept going if i didnt do what i did next at the time that i did it. next i was about 40nm from wp2 from what i remember i may have been a little closer or further away im not 100% sure but i got the message to switch radios to the tanker on CH8, also just after time 2 other f-18s started to refuel so i heard there radio calls. i change my tacan to the tanker and started to head towards it before i made it to wp 2. i met the tank right as the other two f-18s had finished refuelling and it had just started to head NW the in game time was 08:46 this time i feel is the most important part about how i got it all to work, as i feel i got to the tanker sure early and because i never joined up with smoke before wp1 he just kept fly straight. all this caused us to all be at the right place at the right time. as i was flying up on the back of the tanker i got a game message to fly of the tankers left wing and than the player told smoke to refuel first. it took about 3-4 min for him to change what he was doing and get uo to alt and start refuelling, about half way through smoke refuelling when i got close to him i got the message to tell him to get into formation (the bit i missed near wp1) i waited about 2-3 as i didnt know what this would to and i wanted him to get some fuel as i dont know if the AI have unlimited fuel. as soon i told him to get in formation he stopped refuelling and the fence check started during this i believe the 3rd jet left us. once that was complete it came up with the next message for me to tell the game once we had both refuelled, so i went and refuelled while smoke flew formation. once i was done i told the game and it just continued the mission with out an issue. in saying that i didnt complete the mission as i was shot down over the town as the sam launch happened as i was right over the top of the town doing a show of force and i flew a few hundred meters from it so i had no hope of missing it. sorry for the long message i hope it makes sense. im unsure if the problem is because to get into formation with smoke before wp1 but maybe try letting him get pasted wp1 and once he has pasted it than you trigger the next bit of going to wp2 but just get in formation with the tanker no later than 08:45 and wait for smoke to get the call to refuel first. also if you do this you will need to use burner while watching your fuel as it might take time for him to join up on the taker. lastly of it all works the same as mine did try waiting to after smoke has completed his refuel before doing the message of telling him to get in formation with you. hope this helps. @drizzt1700 @baltic_dragon

hey i found a workaround for mission 2, smoke not calling tapes on. i put it in the not tapes on topic. @Valinor17 @drizzt1700

Hey i played the mission last night and had the same issue but i found a workaround to get the mission back on track. so after i held at wp4, smoke cuts off but after 15 min of waiting for the tapes on call nothing. so i when to the f10 map and found Springfield 2-1 flying at 2,000ft heading towards the carrier. i click on him and used f2 to confirm it was smoke (410 number on nose). also when i clicked on him all his waypoints showed up on the map. one of the waypoints was 2-training, so i did the set path thing in the bottom of the map and set a new waypoint very close to the training on, this cleared all of his wp's an just left the new on i created for him. i also changed his alt to 20,000 and speed to 400mph. after about 5 min he arrived at the new wp and i got the tapes on call. the rest of the mission played out perfect. i hope this makes sense and helps people until balic can fix this issue. @Darbis @alboon2000 @drizzt1700 @baltic_dragon

Hey I might have access to a uh-1& and be able to help, send me a PM

Thank you

Has anyone else had the f-15 disabled

Quick update, the problem is fixed so far. Unsure as to what actually fixed the issue with mission 3 but I repaired dcs and reinstalled the campaign and that seemed to fix it. I just want to say thank you for your work on your campaign and it means alot to be able to have an issue and actually get feedback from a developer. So please keep up the great work.

I only brought the campaign 3 days ago, but from reading the above (dated 21 December) and the last dcs patch (28 December) stating that all p-51 spots have been fixed, I guessed that it was fixed. Also on misson 1 the player start spot was incorrect but mission 2 it was correct

hey i just posted in another topic about the starting positions for mission 3 stopping planes from taking off. i wonder if you are having this issue due the 10 or so planes getting stuck while taking like me.
