Hey Mbot ! This is clearly the most surprising mission I flew with the Huey. I have no clue how you managed to script those sonar systems but it was damn immersive ! So at some point I located a strong signal and launched my weapon. Soon after I got a message from the Frigate the Goblin was sunk. But once I returned to the ship and landed on the bridge, there was no message such like "mission complete" or anything, but my helicopter was loaded again with new weapons. Did I miss the point ? is there another submarine around ? Anyways, it was a very exciting experience, thanks !

You have my support for this long and hard work. Really excited to give it a try from the cockpit !

Hi, A pilot named BelGeode has made a pretty nice video of this mission. I thought I would share the link here. [ame] [/ame] BelGeode if you ever read this, I would like to say it's a very nice job you have done, including your own modifications that really tuned up the mission. Best regards.

Just a quick post to thank you for the missions. I'm really enjoying the Huey and it is nice to have scenarized missions to fly that are not self made ! Keep on the good job ! ((PS: the sound mode that you have advised is a must !))

Your wingman can receive orders and will follow them. I am sorry for the radio issues you are experiencing Frank. Normally you would not need to change the radio frequency. But make sure your radio is set on the proper channel (rotary button) and also set on Transmit/Receive mode. Other than that I cannot really give you more advice, I hope this will do.

Hi Frank, I said something wrong in my past message, my apologies. It is not an ADF but a FM emergency Beacon that I used in the mission. So you have to set your FM receiver to 50.00 in order to receive the beacon (see last screen shot). To give you a help about the WP1 and WP3 goals, I added some screen shots below in the correct chronological order. I really hope this will help you. Please let me know if the triggers worked for you aswell. I tested the mission this morning and all went fine.

Hi Frank, To finish the mission with all objectives completed, you need to do the following, according to the messages you receive in flight: (-- spoiler below --) 1) at WP1, when overflying it, you will get a message telling you to pickup the medical team, North of your position. You need to seek the blue smoke and land there. Once this is done properly, you will get a message telling you the medical team is on board so you can proceed with the mission. 2) when getting closer to wp3 you will indeed see vehicles by the bridge and incoming enemies. There you need to land again and wait for confirmation message that the VIP is on board. 3) Just fly back to homebase and land there. If you completed (1) and (2) you will get the "mission completed message". Hints: you can use ADF signal to reach the objective AFTER you have picked up the medical team at wp1. Frequency of the ADF is given during the mission. I hope this will help, Frank, Wish you a nice flight !

Hi Feefifofum, Yes I have actually just noticed that by doing other tests today. That allows more possibilities for further missions ! Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks for the feedback ebabil. Oh yes indeed the car horn is quite annoying ! my apologies. But I wanted to use a "core" sound of DCS so people could play the mission without having to download another sound. But perhaps I can improve with a better native sound. I will keep that in mind. For the other comment: yes well... mind to pick up the Medical team (blue smoke north of WP1 if I remember well). This will enable the rest of the triggers and make the mission more dynamic. Have fun !

Hello, I had hesitations before posting this message, but since this is the first mission I share with the community, I decided to open a thread for comments, suggestions. Link to the mission post: http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2732387&postcount=50 Enjoy !

Thanks for the feed back Morkva. Does it mean a new version of the mod is still in progress ?

Hello, I am giving a try to the f-18 mod I found here (http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2714734&postcount=370) And things seem to work well though I have a question about buttons and axis assignation. The F-18C do not show up in the command assignation menu but in flight, the plane uses my A-10A settings (fopr the ground attack version). Is that normal and part of the mod ? do I have to edit my controls directly from the A-10 and F-15 settings ? Thanks for any help. And really thank you for sharing this huge mod, just the first minutes of flight were awesome !

Hello, I just noticed that now (maybe since a recent update), the Mig-29 has no MFD-HUD repetitor switch and by default it is on, which means you cannot have the MFD displaying the horizontal situation (nav) or the radar beam (bvr). Is that a glitch or is it actually for realism ? Thanks

Thank you very much, I'm going to try this out immediately !

Hi and thanks for sharing the new link. I've tested the A-7e from there and the 3d model is awesome. The mod seems very stable too. It's clearly a great job done to add this aircraft. But I have a question if anyone has an answer: the configuration files in the "entry folder" do not have the .lua extension and thus are more or less impossible to edit. Do you know if there is a way to edit them anyway ? I ask this because I would like to tweak the flight model a little. Best regards,

This is another rebirth for that old good simulator. Thank you very much for the hard work and the generosity with which you share it with us. Another master piece !

Thank you very much for the generous contribution. You really bring a new life to the simulator. Compliments and thanks for the very nice piece of work !

Hello folks, Since the new update to 1.2.11 I've got the feeling that all AAA units have received a deadly precision boost. That includes the non radar assisted unites such as infamous Zu-23 but also any armored vehicle. Even at high speed and high altitude approach, I usually get hit and destroyed without a warning at the first shot. Any idea if the AI scripts have been modified ?

Hello good folks, I have recently installed the x-control mod (beta 4) and the initial tests seem to work, except for one point: I am unable to adjust the cockpit view position in the "views.lua" file that is inside the mod folder. Is there another way to eddit the cockpit view position ? (my intention is to lower the L-39 cockpit view so that it fits better with the hud). Thanks, have a great time !
