Hi guys, I will try to summarize what I did to make the DCE “Hornet over PG” campaign to work with the new SuperCarrier: Deleted the version I had (20.33-03 - the latest). Got the .rar (obviously the same), checked the missionscript.lua in my JGSME. ok Installed precisely as the .PDF says, except I did not run the FirstMission.bat yet. Changed into the Init.lua the Clear Deck from true to False. I had a hunch that’d work with supercarrier. It did. Downloaded the .LUA files on the post https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4336660&postcount=1586 Put them on Saved Games\DCS\Mods\tech\DCE\ScriptsMod Also did this: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4335128&postcount=1576 Open DCS, Mission Editor and opened the Base_Mission.miz. Unlinked all units on CVN-72 (the most western one). Change the link to NONE. Changed the CNV-72 Lincoln Unit from CV-74 Stennis to CVN-72 Lincoln. Linked all unit back again to the same unit CVN-72 Lincoln. (Don’t mess with the Eastern CV - I did and I had to start all over again). Put the E-2 Hawkeye aft a little bit so it wouldn’t block any spawn point. (noticed that on the first try) Saved. Exited DCS. Run the FirstMission.bat file. Back into DCS, Campaigns, DCE, Hornet over PG, flew the first mission (Sead Scort). I hope it helps. Good luck, Sydy

Tks for the tip. I will follow it as well!

Hi guys, Just a bit more info to PB0, Miguel and the users. Today I tested my 4th DCE campaign instalation. The described bellow happened in all 4 I have here running. First of all, I followed the instruction on the dot for the DCS openbeta installation. The FirstMission.Bat ran smooth. Now, trouble begin (and solved itself). On the first mission, I flew and after the QUIT mission screen I got the Scrip pop up for the new mission generation (the black one) and the pop up for the mission results (the white one). While I get these pop ups, the black DCS loading screen hungs up and stays displayed. I had to Task Manager it off. When I came back to DCS, campaign was still considered Inactive. Flew again and got the same result. I flew for the third time, same result. On the Fourth time the campaign worked itself out and is up and running. This happened on all four. “Craziness is to repeat the same process expecting different results.” The ones I got up and running: Hornet over PG; Harrier over PG; Falcon over PG (latest 33c vs); RAF Harrier over Caucasus. Good luck to you all, Sydy

Hola Sublimearrepentido, LOL Never give up. I have my share of disappointments... Some time ago one of the guys in the forum suggested to move the saved games folder location to another place and I made the mistake to move it to my F: root. This was one of the biggest computer mistakes I ever made. It completely f.ck up all my DCE campaigns and I love them all since the Desert Tiger campaign... I was completely down and took me a loooooong time until I understand how to fix it. I only made the fix two days ago and then I decided to go for this new version of DCE campaigns... I just followed the nice new PDF in it and, eventually, worked. From what I read, a couple of guys had the same problem, but insisted and the campaign came back to life. That’s exactly what happened to me. Now I have six campaigns “going on” here and 4 of them are DCEs. If you need any assistance, count me in, but I am way too far behind Miguel and PB0_CEF. Suerte, amigo! Sydy

Hi Ganky, Dude... Comments like this are what give the will to keep making and updating them. Tks, it means a lot to me! Btw, do you know what “Civil Aircraft Mod” specifically that the campaign requires, pls? Edit: Nevermind, just found out how to install it. All the best and, once more, tks! Sydy

Hi guys, Thank you for using it. All the best, Sydy

Hi, I just started to fly this campaign. Loved the skins. Tks a lot. Sydy

Gianky, Tks a lot for the tip. Loved the “spirit” of both campaigns. All the best, Sydy

Hi PB0_CEF. So far I tested 3 DCE campaigns and all worked: RAF Hornet, Harrier over PG and Hornet over PG. Still to test Falcon over PG, but I am pretty sure it’s going to work. Using Openbeta. Btw, I managed to make a compatible missionscript.lua to DCE campaigns and the Akbazanian Persistent war. So, now I have 6 campaigns “going on” on my DCS OB. Tks again and keep it up! All the best, Sydy

Hi PB0_CEF, Good news... First of all, I didn't change anything since last time, but... I decided to give a try on "RAF Harrier over Caucasus" because now I restored my Saved Games Location Properties back to the Default and it worked! WOW! Cool. Then I decided to try "Hornet over PG" and... It worked!!! I will be dammed!!! Computers... :doh: Thank you both for the campaigns, I really like that enviroment! All the best, Sydy

Hi, Update: Managed to restore my saved games folder location properties back to C:. That solved the alert window pop up described above, but now, when I finish a mission, DCS gets stuck in the DCS WORLD Loading scree. I get the txt with the mission result and the BAT to generate a new mission runs ok, but I never leave the DCS WORLD loading screen (the black initial one). Then I have to finish via Task Manager and when I return to DCS, no mission is logged and campaign is still as inactive. :-( Any tip? Tks in advance, Sydy

Ouch! :(

This happened to me on the second mission. None of the other Hornets took off.

Hi PB0_CEF, (and Miguel), I just downloaded and installed FALCON, HORNET and HARRIER Over PG campaigns. I customized it to the Openbeta and it worked like a charm up to a point... When I end the mission I get an altert Pop up saying I tried to index a log file and so on on the path C:\Users\Syd~\AppData\Local\Temp with a question in it: "C:?" or something like that. Edit: Just managed to annex a screenshot. I use the latest open beta installed on drive F: and my saved games is also on drive F:. The fun part is that the mission is registered on the history and let me play another mission completely different. I don't get the txt with the mission result nor the CMD promp with mission selection. Any tip? (I love your DCE campaigns) Tks in advance, Sydy

Hi Beirut, I haven’t done it myself, but I remember two things: 1- Check FLIR SW ON; 2- HUD has to be in night mode (small switch on it); 3- Press SENSOR SW Once (HUD REJECT). Gonna try myself and let you know. Edit: Test complete and procedure listed for Beirut. All the best, Sydy

Thanks a lot, Sedlo. I already downloaded it. Tks also to unlikely_spider! Sydy

Lol Good to hear it worked out. Take care! Sydy

FourSpeed, I’ve tried a few times myself on MP and the water tank is re-filled at the exact moment the crew chief states “REARM COMPLETE”. At least it was my case. All the best, Sydy

Thank you!

Gents, I hope everybody is ok with that covid-19 out there, but I have a question, please: Does anyone have the description of the LHA Tarawa Approach Lights and how to properly use it? (the ones in the port rear side of the island). I thank you in advance. All the best, Sydy

Gonna double check right away. Tks Update: Link fixed. My bad! I am sorry. Now it is ok. All the best, Sydy

Gents, Just updated to vs 2.1. All the best, Sydy

Hello Canada!! Or Lebanon! LOL Go for it! You just need practice. The second issue, it is suppose to change to TV automatically. Are you using the same laser code? (Double check the code) Are you pressing TDC Action button? All the best, Sydy
