Hi guys, Thank you for using it. I am planning on 2.1 vs, but it is only a couple of items changed and INS to off added on the shutdown. Other than that, no big deal. It is a pleasure to help the community. It is my way to say thank you to all contributors. All the best, Sydy

Hi guys and Sedlo, I hope you guys are doing pretty well. After I came back flying the Harrier and updating my quick checklist, I decided to fly your Campaign Vulcan Forge (1.8 ). It was awesome. Very well scripted and worked flawlessly. I love it all. If I may make a couple of suggestions, I'd say: 1- Make a doc package available with charts like Missions 01/08/09 and 10. It makes easier to put it on on other monitor. The briefing is nice also, but the Nav and WPTs Map are more important. 2- Maybe, just a maybe, you may add a couple of missions in the middle of the campaign with some other weapons like Jdam (nothing complicated) and AGM-65G, but it is just a suggestion. I loved the weapons and employments variation and surely it made me a better AV8B virtual pilot. Thanks a lot, Sydy

Hi guys, I hope you are ok with this crazy pandemia out there. It has been quite a while since I flew the Harrier and I decided to fly it again. One of the community members suggested that I'd to update my checklist. So I did it. It has a quick check checklist and Weapons checklist (including Laser Mavs and JDAMs) and another set for night ops. I took the liberty to add on the day ops set both CASE I charts made by Baltic Dragon. Btw, I tested the checklist on his awesome training missions. Thanks for that, BD! So, here it goes: Quick and Weapons Checklist for Day Ops. Quick and Weapons Checklist for Night Ops. Here goes a couple of examples (including Baltic Dragon CASE I). I hope you like it. Thank you all, specially Baltic Dragon. All the best, Sydy

Well... I finished that campaign already. I’d recommend a bug report next time. AI has a lot of limitations and we have to live with that and adapt. I flew most of the Sabre-TLA, Baltic Dragon and Reflected campaigns. I had a lot of fun. Sometimes we bounce on a ED or Ai limitation and you have two options: 1- Insist a bit and try to overcome the mission (you always get a chance to get frustrated) or give it a try and if you think its an AI problem, ED design that needs to mature or even your own skill, just skip the mission. Learn to edit the logbook.lua and that will save a lot of frustration (and time). Life it is what it is. Is it buggy? Report it and move along! Take care, Sydy

Oh, yes! That’d be quite nice!!!

Hi, I flew Mission 10 Well... Not good... First attempt: In the middle of the valley otw to fight decided to arm, got a msg "MISSION ENDED - WINNER RED" and it closed... Second attempt: A little bit more, decided to change rockets do 1 pair at time... Same deal. Third attempt: decided not to mess with the weapons until in combat. Managed to kill all enemies, but then it became night. Seriously? Landed is several spots and no troop showed or smoke to mark. Decided to end the mission and move to the next one. Quite disappointing. Let's go to the last one...

CHPL, No worries. It was ok. I just flew Mission 9. It is a night mission and it is ok. A couple of spoilers bellow: Pretty nice mission. All the best, Sydy

Hi guys, good morning, Mission 8. Nice mission but with two noticeable glitches on the Voice Overs: Other than that, it is a nice night mission. Remember to use you NVG. Helps a lot! All the best, Sydy

Hi, Just flew Mission 7. No big Spoiler today. Mission is quite nice and enjoyable. Here goes a couple of minor spoilers: Tomorrow I will try to fly 8 and 9. All the best, Sydy

Hi CHPL, I tried a bit of that, but didn't let stay above red line for that long. Tks anyway, Sydy

Hi guys, I flew again Mission 5.2 at least a dozen times... Mission 6. Another mission that demands a bit of stick and rudder (I know... Anti-torque pedals) :joystick: LOL... All the best, Sydy

Hi, I flew Mission 5.2. I felt pretty stupid. Well, there is a spoiler bellow: Edit: Found the solution on the forum... I may give 5.2 another go... So, Life it is what it is... Let’s go to mission 6! (Edit: I will try 5.2 again...)

Completely understandable and I concur with the line of action. Your path is wise. :thumbup: It’s a buy on first day for me! Looking forward to it. Keep it up, CHPL!

Hi guys, Just flew Mission 5.1. It is pretty intense once you get to the combat area. On the first attempt I broke the helo on the 5th landing (by the tree). On the second attempt I managed to fulfill the mission and made it, not without hearing a low rpm aural and light on one of the camp landings and almost crashing into a bunker... As I said, pretty intense, but got all 100 points... Without the map in the spoiler the mission becomes very difficult. Good luck on that one, guys! All the best, Sydy

CHPL, Thanks a lot! But... When are you going to release a new campaign? :-) All the best, Sydy

Hi, did you turn on your FM radio? I am sure you’re missing one of the radios. Good luck, Sydy

Hi vracan, Yes, what happened on my first attempt I tried to land line abreast of Wolf 1 on his 9 / 8 clock but it was in the downslope and the chopper tilted down and I broke it. On the second attempt I noticed there was a kind of crest and decided to land on the 7clck of Wolf 1 on the upslope, before the crest. It was much better and it was successful. That’s what I’d recommend. Good luck, Sydy

Hi, Just flew Mission 4 Veeeery long mission and I loved it. First attempt: Crash landing on top of the hill on Task 3. Pretty stupid. Second attempt: flew for 01:50 and ended pretty tired. Not a big deal but requires attention and to comply with the task. There is a surprise in the end, but I will not spoil it. Landed on fumes on the final destination (won't tell you either). Managed to get all 100 points. Guys, have fun. It is a mission that will require a bit of Huey Stick and Rudder skills (not much of rudder, but anti-torque pedals) LOL. All the best, Sydy

Hi, Just flew the mission and it took me 1:50' to fly it. The frequency is 52.0Mhz. All the best, Sydy

Amem!

It is working perfectly!!! The deactivation is effective. I flew the entire mission because of that. Tks

Hi guys, This will be my missions report so you may see what is happening with these latest updates. It may have spoilers, but I will try to protect you from that. At this moment I am flying with OB DCS 2.5.6.45915 Open Beta 2020-03-31. If I update it, I will post as well. This report will work as a benchmark to CHPL as well. So far I flew 3 missions: Mission 1 The main bug was Wolf 1 not landing on the beginning, but it worked twice for me. On the first attempt I had to abort due to RL events. On the second attempt all worked until the following spoiler: Mission 2. It was a very nice mission until Wolf 1 decided not to takeoff from Tango Bravo. The work around via F10 menu worked flawlessly. Mission 3. The mission is very nice and doable. I just flew it. It happened to me for sure. I managed to finish the mission with 75 points. Fair Enough. Up to this point I am loving the missions an the environment. I saw a few grammatical erros and I understand it pretty much because english is not my first language as well and the mixup is understandable. As I said, the campaign is amazing and even with these annoying bugs, it is easy to enjoy the set up. I am looking forward to flying more of your campaigns. All the best, Sydy

Hi CHPL, I just flew it. It happened to me for sure. I managed to finish the mission with 75 points. Fair Enough. All the best, Sydy

CHPL, Great news! I will fly mission 3 today (on 2.5.6). I let you know. I really like you mission styles and enviroment. Tks, Sydy

I flew it today and my problem is that Wolf 1 never took off from Tango Bravo. I used the work around to proceed to mission 3. I love the missions so far and the length is amazing. Some guys like rambo style, but I am loving the elaborated mission. Congrats, Sydy
