chase

Thank you. Good to know.

Yes I am on current Open beta. I just looked at the video again. I must be blind because I still do not see where he enters in an ILS freq. For that matter I also do not see where he enters in the ships TCN. So that leaves another question haha. He uses TCN 73, & ILS 11 in the video, but doesn't set up the boat to use 73. So I'm confused. . I time stamped his video at the point where he enters in the ship data. I only see the Link 4 and ACLS.

when he was setting up the ship, he only put in the Link 4 and ACLS. However, he never entered in a ILS Freq. So how did he know that the ILS Freq was 11? The only freq in his video is the Link 4 freq of 331 i think. I'm trying to add the ACLS to payware campaigns, and I can not get the Tadpole to show up. I"m probably setting it up wrong. The Mission designer, has only TCN and ICLS with a freq. So I've been adding the Link 4 and activating the ACLS under it. Everything works but no tadpole. Should I delete the CILS menu item? Maybe having both CILS and ACLS messes it up. But I don't see a box to add a ils freq to the link 4. Dave

Just FYI for anyone who wishes to fly this mission before it gets fixed. You can fly it from the ME. Just make sure you un tick the Late activation box and make the Hawk Site un hidden. The mission flew as normal after I made these changes. Dave

LOL I do the same thing..

The Hawk Site, "Sunflower" I think never activates. I see in the ME, that it is a late activation. I assume when Spade says Sunflower just went live that there should be a trigger at that time, which would activate the targets. You will see in my recording, that the HK Site never displays on the EW page. Nor do I observe it in the Targeting Pod. I don't have a track, but here is a Twitch recording. ( Go to minute 53:30 to see where I don't observe the target. ) * you'll also notice that at minute 58:00 Nicky doesn't have any Ordinances left. So did he drop them all upon attacking the Migs? Or did he drop them when I requested he attack the non existent HK site first? If he dropped during the Mig encounter, then that too will cause problems later in the mission obviously. I'm not sure when this happened. The only changes I made to the mission via the ME was I moved the time of day up by 45 minutes and changed the clouds and added labels. These changes have never adversely effected the mission in the past. I feel like the HK Trigger is broken. But I can't see your trigger list. Thanks, Dave Twitch Recording. Let me know if you have trouble viewing. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1470327961

Following. I too would be interested in this. I tried to manually change out the carrier's CILS to ACLS and added the Link 4 to Mission 10 using the ME. Obviously you can't save the changes but other changes can be made and play through the ME, like the weather or other minor changes, like adding labels etc.. But I was unable to make the ACLS work. Changing from CILS to ACLS, did have a good hand shake on the Freq, but no ILS or Tadpole ever showed up. So I'm guessing it can't be done by us. Maybe adding a F10 menu item to turn it on or off? IDK. But I agree, this would be nice to have. Dave.

I agree this mission is broken as described. I tried twice. The second time this afternoon after updating dcs to current beta version. Same thing after being told to go to WP 3 after taking out bandits the mission goes silent. Circled wp 3 for 10 minutes. I didn't Save a track because i thought the file would be to long. But this should be reproducible to the developer. Thanks. Dave.

Ah ok. I see that now. Good point.. Thanks for the quick reply. And nicely done missions. Very relaxed but also entertaining. Looking forward to exploring these missions. : ) Take care. Dave.

@Badger633 I prefer choosing the miz i want to fly directly from the ME. The 3 types are listed as regular, EZ, and HK. I'm assuming the "EZ"= is the simplified ATA And the "HK" = increased difficulty thanks for any clarification on this. Dave

Any word as to when this will be fixed?. It's a pretty glaring bug imo. There has been a few updates since this crept up and still broken... Dave.

Ah so it is lol. Dunce cap on, sitting in corner Now. Thanks, I'll pass it along. : ) Dave.

Is this still a thing?. Can a friend of mine DL the Hornet for 14 days even now to try it out, then buy at the end of the trial period?. Not sure if this is an ongoing promotion or just something they did in the past. Thanks. Dave

In earlier flights, the WP was placed on the ground. This time around, after latest Beta, the waypoint is 15,000 feet. My intl thought was that the Tgt Pod was messed up again. But then closer look at the ME revealed 15K. Not a huge deal, but might be worthwhile changing it to ground elevation for next DCS update. Thanks. This is my favorite mission and I replay it a lot. Dave

I too use TrackIr. I use trackir's software to bind a key to recenter. So i do that outside of DCS. As for switching to a different profile, you can try to save what you have, that way you can swap back if you want. You click on the controller at top then save as a new profile. You could also save all your key bindings which are stored under user/saved games. Then once you have backed everything up, then try to download a profile and see if you like it. DCS could use better control assignments For sure.

Good. It's not me then. Thank you for the information.

I'm not sure i understand your question. Keystrokes?. I would assume my instructions would apply to all their products. Just search for Orion instead of battle panel. Then let it assign the commands. I did this post due to the lack of information on SimAppPro. Not sure what links you are looking for. There is no instruction for this software other than what WW supplies on their download page which is not much.

Anyone else Experiencing over heating? The temp is pinned. only way to fly is with Invincible on. Even then a a white trail of smoke behind. I know the proper engine parameters. I'm just now after updating to current beta noticed this. i tried opening everything to include both switches on left to open and not auto. I'm guessing it's a new bug, just curious if others are experiencing this. If so I'll make a track for ED. Thanks. Dave.

Hey thanks for the comment. I'm happy my post helped. : ) Dave

Ah ok. Cool. I had circled the target area before ordering the attack. Waisting time lol. I'll fly it again today. I know. Just surviving is winning these days : ). Thanks for the help. I'm keeping these forums alive for you. Lol. Dave.

I understand that. I'm not slamming the mission it's self. I'm just saying my opinion that i personally prefer to fly not as lead as it gives me something to do while making that treck across the pond. Maintaining formation alone makes the time go by a lot quicker. - so okay, unlike mission 3 where there are radio sounds and music practically the entire way this mission is bassically quiet. That's fine, just checking cause like i said my generator was off. So i didn't miss anything. I think there was another group of friendlies which took these guys on. By the time i followed in my flights to do the bombing run, all the enemy fighters were spashed. It all happens around the same time. - can you PM me the trigger which starts the ATA battle? That way you won't spoil it for others, but i may be able to avoid that trigger till I'm ready to take on some 109's. Thanks for the responce. I like the mission, just comparing miz 3 to 5. Dave. : )

Are there any targets at the rail yard which upon damaged or killed result in a mission trigger? Meaning if i miss a target is there a chance I'm missing out on some action? The only thing i see about this mission is the boring flight across the water. Boring due to being lead. At least when i follow it gives me something to do which is staying in formation. Plus no radio chatter on the way across. Radio silence? Now this could be my fault. i didn't have the generator on for part of the crossing. That may of affected the radio to a degree. Then once at the rail yard, i shoot up a few trucks and train cars and nothing happens. during the runin, i get a call about some fighters in the area, but they never made it close to the target area. Just curious if there is more to this story. I really liked miz 3, as i flew in formation with lots of radio traffic to listen to on the long flight. Dave.

I make numerous single player missions and this would proove very helpful for us Hornet Drivers. Any word on this feature request?. I'm not a need it now guy, nor am i asking for an unknown release date. Jusy curious if you've heard back yet. Thanks. Dave.

Just wanted to officially close this thread. If the miz had been broken by a dcs update, it is good now. After taking out the choppers the mission pushes on forward. Probably my favorite mission out of the whole shabang. Thanks. Dave

I have been noticing chatter in various gaming forums that Windows update has caused FPS issues across many titles. If you haven't already you may want to try installing the optional windows update April 28th KB5001391. Some not all, but some have been reporting FPS increased with this fix. I have not updated myself, but figured I'd pass this on. Dave.
