I recently have found myself looking everywhere for more missions of Dragon's caliber. They are rare. So, Dragon. Anything more in the works? We sure would love some fresh meat of your caliber and complexity.

Wondering if Dragon or any one can do this one up with the addition of four KAs. I really like it.

Come to think of it, I have not seen this behaviour with myself in a while now, Dragon's, Strongharm's or otherwise, and in that while I have done a complete reinstall with 1111. Checked my options just now and that "use these settings" box is checked. So, it may indeed be just that.

I know what he means. Cockpit views and MFD views. Ya, Ive seen that before. Easiest way is just to shrug it off.

I wanna hear from the guy with the uber system who tried it and says it ran smooth as silk. (ya right!):lol:

How do you get resupplied in these missions?

OK. So I loaded the profile and got everything happening. Trouble is, I have been too long set up with my own profile. Quite a learning curve all over again. I am now adjusting for my own liking. For example, buttons 3 and 4, the real thumb ready buttons are my 4 and 6 buttons. 5 is assigned to NWS and laser. Having the first stage trigger assigned to 5 doesn't work very well, IMHO, as it takes too much pressure to hold down and has me moving the stick around too much. For now, first stage still works pretty well as P on the keyboard as it keeps the stick almost hands free.:)

I have not got a clue what modifiers were used before so I guess I'm hooped. Well, maybe not. Just had a look at the Add Modifiers feature and I see there is a huge selection to add. So, I may give it another try tomorrow.

This doesn't work for me. The setting in my options are in red boxes. Don't know what this means but when I flew and tried them they didn't work. I went back in and reset trim, for instance and got that to work. As per button 7 and the hat left, right and so on. But then I tried flaps, also in red boxes, and there was nothing. When I tried to reset the flaps buttons, ie; 7 + 5 and 3, it would not allow both. Only one or other.

Last night we nailed that tank column headed to the airfield. But I did notice that, when they attacked previously, there seemed to be mo one shooting back. No airfield defense at all?

Tried again and got the same thing. But, I can tell you that before I fired on the Helo, a message came up stating that the Hawks had been dropped and would go active, as they should. I shot the helo out of the air and got the message that they now would not. Then a bit later, they would. So, I guess the message should not be generated if you nail the Helo after he has unloaded the missles or teams or whatever he was unloading.

Trackfile? Where would that be? This was multiplayer. OK, I found it. Nice to know I can free up some space and delete all those saved tracks. And I just got a message that my upload could not be processes because some security token was missing so I will try once more with a new reply

Wow. Did I get a surprise in Vody Rush last night. Not a lot of players and we had taken care of the migs and, I thought, the Hawks. Took out the helo and it actually stated the Hawks would not activate. But, they did. That wasn't the surprise, tho. Came later after at least two rearms by me, working on waypoints 1 and 2. Last rearm and there is an explosion near by. Next thing I know, I'm toast and tanks roll onto the airfield. This puts an end to respawns and, basically the night's game. Tonight we'll try again and beware of the impending invasion of the airfield. Ya gotta love it!

Played a couple with a couple of online guys. I am running a home server and have had a lot of requests for the WH and BS combo missions. It would be great if you could up the players and add BS. Also, the distance thing isn't too indicative of our multiplayer wants and needs. It would be great if you could cut that distance (100 miles+?) in half. Other than that, great missions. Addendum: Checked out more missions and it looks like only the first was a distance marathon. So, I stand corrected. But the other stuff would be a great addition.

I changed one of the loadouts to hold 6 H types. Specifically to play that Dragon's mission with the FARPS and see how it works. But, with the greatly reduced lockup distance i'll probably have to wait till a few other players clean out a bunch of the sams.

Unfortunately, that doesn't work for Ds, right?

Been flying Dragons' MPs and I cant get Vehicle locks with either TGP or MAVs on FARPS. Other players have the same problem. I think this was also happening with other missions. Probably a known bug but I thought I would just throw it out there.

Not reporting, just sayin.

Dragon Am now onto your 3rd mission Hamburger Hill. Was surprised to see it opens up a complete side vs side furball. Unfortunately for me, the missions usually crash the first time around (probs because of my setup) and it takes a restart to get it running. It was getting late last night and no one really came back in. Will try again tonight but was wondering how letting both sides fill up will tax my system. Hope it works. Could be fun. Toad

Wow, guess I am really alone here. Lol. No matter. That Hotas x is really no different than my X 3D. 12 buttons. And I found out the Saitek runs around 5 bills too so I'll prolly be just sticking with what I've got.

Hmmm. So, where's the crank to bring the wheels up? (Just kidding)

I'm sure I'm not alone here. If it were not for the lack of twist for rudders, I'd probably make the sacrifice and by the thing. Being less than a hard core enthusiast I just don't want to add and use pedals. Matter of fact I quite like the twist feature. I checked out the F65 Saitek and they did it. Guess that's where I'm headed.:noexpression:

Is there a basic flight mission? Got a handle on your startup miz. and weaponary but damned if I know how to fly the thing. And, by the way, thanks for doing this. I've had BS2 for two months and it has just sat on the back burner because I was soooo totally lost. It made WH seem like a piece of cake.

It seems I get random crashes on any mission I host. I dl'd your 1.2 which has only four a10 slots. You say you have one with a10s and BS? I know a couple of regular players have asked about BS availability so if you have one could I get it?
