message system messed up in mist 3_7_48 Anyone else having troubles with the message system in the latest mist build (mist 3_7_4) ? Same scripts used to work fine in previous builds, but now: (i) if I send a message to a particular coalition (say blue) it displays for all coalitions. The message simply displays for red, but for blue it diaplays the message plus a line above it saying "combined arms message" (ii) messages sent to a particular unit don't display at all. Here is the code I use for displaying text to a particular coalition: HS_out = function(coa,outText,outTime) -- function outputs text using the mist message system if outText and outTime then local msg = {} msg.text = outText msg.displayTime = outTime msg.msgFor = {coa = {coa}} msg.sound = HS_radioStaticAudio mist.message.add(msg) end end Here is the code I use for displaying text to a particular unit: HS_outUnit = function(forUnit,outText,outTime) -- function outputs text to a specific unit using the mist message system if outText and outTime then local msg = {} msg.text = outText msg.displayTime = outTime msg.msgFor = {units = {forUnit}} msg.sound = HS_radioStaticAudio mist.message.add(msg) end end

I hope that they will release it for beta testing before everything is finished. That way, we get it earlier. Also, releasing it bit by bit will make bug hunting easier. If they release the whole product immediately, there will likely be a ton of bugs in it. Take it one step at a time...

Great:thumbup:

Wow, can't wait for the 21st. :thumbup:

According to the OP, and I quote "Each aircraft will be assigned a specific Flight Plan including Altitudes to hold with this Flight Plan also being programmed into the aircraft's waypoints. The Flight Plan routes will be published so all users can view the routing of their aircraft and others." So, I assume someone else will figure out the flightplan with refuiling airports, etc. for me in my F-86, or do I misunderstand something?

Well, in that case I am in: Mad Max F-86F Sabre with drop tanks CST USA 1 lap (I understand the event consists of several laps around the Black Sea)

Has there been any word yet on whether it is possible for F-86s or Mig-15s to participate in this event. I am worried that these machines will likely run out of gas when trying to traverse the large empty patches of the map without airfields in them, where they could refuel...

Is it possible to fly the route in a F-86 or Mig-15 (which would be my first choices)? I am worried because there aren't many "gas-stations" in the western have of the black see map...

Is Wags talking about blocking bugs for the NTTR map, or DCS World 2? They could release DCW2 before they have finished NTTR, right?

Dear pilots, I adapted the Crazy Horse Campaign (which is a compaign for the Huey) for the Mi-8. Feedback and bug reports welcome. Download here.

updated Crazy Horse campaign for version 1.2.16 Dear pilots, I have just updated the Crazy Horse Campaign for DCS World version 1.2.16. (My original plan was to wait until DCS World 2 comes out, but...) Download here. Feedback welcome. Enjoy!

We have waited so long, I don't even care any more what its performance will be, I just want them to finally release it:music_whistling:

In my experience it is not the updater alone that does it. Mine updated fine, but once I went into the module magner and installed the Mig-15 module, then this error started to pop up. And if I understand the OP correctly, he could also update fine, it was only after he went into the module manager to reactivate the Mig-21 module that things went wrong.

I have exactly the same problem! Anyone else have this?

proud owner too. But eagerly awaiting an AFM for it:pilotfly:

I have the same problem with the US version, have to use the CUSTOM KEYS bindings instead of the ordinary ones for flaps and gear

Just saw that in the official updates part of the forum the C-101 has been (is being) released. Where can I buy and download it?

Having looked at the video, I judge it is ready for release, and I instruct DCS to release it tomorrow:D

Interesting observation, Fox!

I have the latest version installed (.35605) but when I log on the DOW server (haven't tried any other ones), I still see all other aircraft as Su-27s:music_whistling:

Hi Pixel, Wasn't aware of your bug report. Great, hopefully now that two dogs are barking up the same tree, it has a greater chance of getting fixed.:thumbup: Happy holidays, Wolle

Yes, this campaign is broken at the moment, because of at least two things: i) the "decent" menu that is used for picking up troops has been removed by the devs:thumbdown: ii) cargos (that can be sling loaded by the choppers) do not behave properly anymore in the lua scripting engine. For example "StaticObject.getByName("cargoName"):getPosition()" returns an "Object doesn't exist in function getPosition" lua error even if a cargo with name "cargoName" has been placed in the mission editor.:cry: Until those two things get fixed, this campaign is broken. I don't expect a fix soon, since AFAIK neither of the two bugs has even been acknolowdged by the moderators, yet:music_whistling: (may be wrong about this though)

still seeing SU-27s

I just logged on a played the Frog of War mission in a 190. My fellow 109s appeared to me as Su-27s :dunno:. Anyone else have that problem? I swear I haven't been drinking yet.

Have cargos been moved to a new object category? StaticObject.getPosition(StaticObject.getByName(cargoName)).p previously worked just fine, now I get "Object doesn't exist" lua error.
