OK will try to fix this for next OB patch!

Thanks for the info! Yeah it works fine every time on my end...

I'll try to fix it today for the upcoming OB patch. Thanks!

Hm.. try to run a repair. It doesn't seem like a campaign problem (I have no control over things such as wheel chocks etc). If this persists please send me a track.

Well, Saint will be back in the third part which IS going to be a training one (akin to Iron Flag).. so this should be fun.

It will be in the next update. Was meant for September but there was none

Yes, AFAIR you have to wait for Sluggo to shoot first. As for the external software I don’t really know, should be enought to not load / run it, but this is something that is really difficult to put one’s finger on.

I am using Closed Open Beta for updating missions because I can catch bugs about to be added early.. but that means I won't be able to send you updated version of the mission for testing because it likely won't work at all, at least until next OB patch hits. Apologies! But I can do a different thing, if you are in Discord, please hit me up there (balticdragon). Thanks!

No idea @algherghezghez. I flew it twice as I am updating whole campaign and it works for me normally, as it does for two of my testers. Do you have any unofficial 3rd party mods installed or use software such as voice attack etc? Also, perhaps try to run a full repair. This problem seems to affect certain people but works OK for most and we've discovered some time ago that 3rd party mods can affect AI behaviour in campaigns... Another thing - what are your PC specs? On slower machines it takes some time for the AI to notice "stop" flag (in this case: "stop following" flag) and may cause behaviour like this. Let me try something and send you an unprotected version of the mission to check if it works for you, ok?

I also ran quite an extensive update for this mission today, fixing instances where Olive would not attack with Mavs. And noticed that now you can finally see labels (I am using dot-neutral) in NVGs, making this mission very enjoyable!

Thanks @RogerRoadie! I am updating Raven One right now and for the most part missions work OK, but there is always something that can be improved or made to work better. I've made some changes to M3 as well, but nothing ground-breaking so far. Enjoy the rest!

You shouldn't use in-game comms for AWACS and wingmen, the Marshal works normally apart from M01 which is completely custom - built, the rest uses normal supercarrier comms. Maybe I need to update the readme to be more specific on that as for the ADF.. I didn't use ADF in any of the missions, I honestly forgot it was even implemented in the Hornet. So not sure what happened there!

Just wanted to say huge thank you to @SkateZilla for this tool. When you have to switch between different versions of DCS and jump in and out of VR it is absolutely priceless!

Thanks @Tom Kazansky and have fun with the rest. TEW is pretty old and I'd probably build it a bit differently today, but I still love it and had good fun flying it when I was doing a face-lift to the campaign recently.

Gotcha. Will fix.

Roger that. Apparently the helo bug also happens in A-10C II so I'll try to update / fix both. Cheers!

OK, I'll have a look!

As I said, I will have to change everything for the taxi directors. Luckily the whole supercarrier taxi logic seems to work so much better with them, so hopefully this and similar problems will be gone once and for all.

Yes, the campaign will be set in Marianas (I have enough of Caucasus) - and it will be probably a hybrid between Iron Flag and stock M-2000C campaign. Iron-flag style one may come later but as a DLC, it is so much work I just can't commit to for a free one (but it will still be fun and informative, I promise!)

Haha this mission is free. I am currently bogged down under lots of updates and stuff I have to do, but would love to revisit MP side of things soon.

I'll get to this mission soon, working on general overhaul of the campaign and see if I can reproduce - so far when I flew it few days ago it all worked as advertised for me... both the helos and the snipers. Will keep you posted.

Hey, I am doing an update of the whole campaign and changed a few things in this mission - but in all my trials everything worked as intended in the part you describe (flew it three times). Now some people have this bug, while others don't, I was never able to reproduce it nor was any of my testers. Blade will fly 40NM out and all the calls are made on Strike freq (channel 3 - that is what's in the kneeboard in the mission). Anyway, hope it will work OK after the overhaul, adding a lot of cool features (some of them listed in the video below). Cheers!

Hey guys, I am now going through whole campaign and updating lots of things (there will be much more immersion in Raven One, check the video below). Also fixing all the bugs I can find. M11 is the one that needs most work on and I'll make sure by the time the updated campaign is out it works like a charm (aiming at October patch but can't promise that, depending how difficult things will prove to be fixed).

This is now internally fixed.

Yeah, there is no option to add Exxon as it is a custom name used in a novel - so for radio comms you have to use Texaco or Arco. Can't change it unfortunately, but glad you like the campaign!
