What is exactly wrong? ECM is like a torch in the dark this is true. And like a torch in the dark.you see the light but nothing eles, só, you see someone is "over there" but you can't lock him on because you can't get the exact position. So that statement is 100%. We can go further to how ECM is working in real, vs DCS but... Nothing wrong with that statement. That is why you should only switch them on in the correct moment. By the way, AV8 ECM should only work when you receive a signal from enemy radar. If not, it works only in receive only mode.

Interesting data! Thanks!

I asked similar question... I would like to get coordinates of the aiming point of any of the sensors.

Well that is true. I do want to get more involved in moose!!! I never find the right time!

This is a short part of the detection script from Mbot. Very cool script. ewrUnit = Unit.getByName("EWR unitname") ewrCtrl = ewrUnit:getGroup():getController() local DetectedTargets = ewrCtrl:getDetectedTargets(RADAR) Detectedtargets returns a list of detected.units by Radar. (Check what detection method you want to use, visual, radar, what type of radar) So, since detected targets is a table of detected units, now compare it with your aircraft of interest. You have to develop the script... Something like For a,, b in pairs (detectedtargets) do If detectedtargets[a] :getName() = "my plane" Then.... Something like that. Hope it helps

good to know... for instance the Gazelle could not. (and it pissed me off, since it is a recon helo). But let see if Razbam tells us how to. My solution is... if the enemy is in line of sight and in front of the aircraft you are flying... you can detect any enemy and use it for the AI to attack him. Very funny indeed. (Gazelle recon script)

Hello Razbam Team. I am enjoying very much the Av8. I like to make missions and scripts. I would like to know if is there anyway to return coordinates via script function from any of the Av8 sensors? TPOD, FLIR or any? If so, I could use it to send information to IA aircrafts or even ground units, to go to, or to bomb, etc. I could even point an LZ to land Helicopters and drop off Marines... I am able to do that but just overflying the zone, if I can get the location and via F10 menu, tonsave the coordinates, I could do lot of funny things. Please, any suggestion?

Use get detectedargets... I might have something you can use... Let me check in my scripts library. Essentially, a loop doing getdetected targets, and comparing results to your aircraft... If.. then..., you know what I mean.

Most probably because the list of units with makeunittable only takes the initial units. Dropped, spawned, cloned units, can have the same name, but different ID. Unless you redo the list after dropping units it won't work. You can make a loop repeating the script every minute to ensure it takes into account all units

I like using also rockets for SEAD

The good point is that this could be a campaign... It does not matter what the result is, if you return to base. Vietnam was that...

With the F5, Phantom F4, Mig21 and Mig19, we can replicate late 60 early 70s quite defently. I love this era.

Silly question.... How can start the harrier at night I can't see anything and I did not found the keys to siwtch any flash light or something On

In my opinion that is ok for scripted missions, but I prefer the uncertainty of other groups cumplying their orders...

I am all analogic lover. yes I like F18s... Etc but, to me, It would be fun to fulfill the DCS world with 70s aircrafts.may be early 80s.

Two things. Tracer could be optional in ME. Muzzle flash should be brigther. So, for radar bases AAA I should put tracers, ok, it's nice, but... If you put a brigther muzzle flash you know you are being shot at.

via script.

first change the .miz file to .zip, I mean.... Rename the file with .zip Once unzipped, you ll find a file "CASCAP infinity Nevada.lua" in one of the folders... have a look, modify and then get everything and compile to a zip file. And then rename to .miz. CASCAP_Infinity_Nevada_1.64.zip CASCAP Infinity Nevada.lua

I LL have a look

Most of us mission editors, spend more time editing than flying

Open it in the mission editor. Unless the mission is done by script. In such case, change the file extension from Miz to eat, and extract. You will see the scripts there. Add the mission so we can see it.

Did you delete the options.lua?

Yes. With the mission editor.you can do lots of things, and I mean a lot. Scripting gives you options to do things that in the ME does not exist, and after time saves you time because you just need to copy and paste... BUT. I DONT SEE HOW TO START SCRIPTIING IF YOU DONT LNOW WHAT YOU CAN SCRIPT. So first read the manual and do short missions, understand the trigger, the zones, the possibilities. Then you can mix all up with scripting

Exactly, I did buffing inverted, to not to loose too much speed... But the L39 seems to be like a space shuttle

What people makes is the scripting in a lua file then attach via load script file. You can also use the do script.... and write the script directly. Not recomended.
