@mla306 Yes its a DCS bug that has hit a lot of missions. I provided a fix and issued it to ED should be out in an update soon. Sorry as always totally out of my control.

@HooT_77th As per my response to your other thread, if this is not a campaign issue can you please confirm what the issue was for the benefit of others and mark this thread as solved. Thanks

@HooT_77th We spend thousands of hours developing the campaigns trying to ensure everything works all of the time. Sometimes DCS updates do break things which we have to update. It seems this issue is not one of them. Unfortunately I cannot delete the threads. Could you please explain what was the problem, which may help fellow pilots. Then mark the thread as solved. Thanks.

@quantumchance good to know. We try our best to keep all missions working but it can feel like a losing battle sometimes. Unfortunately that's the name of the game and will get these fixes our as soon as I can.

@Biggles81 Think you know the reply.

@Dogger Dude Yeah I know, already fixed just waiting for ED to issue it.

Hi @quantumchance @Dogger Dude This is a DCS update bug. I have created a work round fix which I am waiting for ED to release. Obviously the missions worked without a problem prior to the update. Sorry but completely out of my control. Very frustrating for everybody.

@unclesneep Unfortunately not, it was a surprise hotix update. We did not know about it only campaign update files already in the system got through. I have asked that there be a full update as soon as possible, but we are in EDs hands.

Hi @Biggles81 Yeah this update is what ED call a hotfix, we didn’t even know it was going out!!!

Hi @MavSeb @awasur04 The problem is as a result of the recently introduced new DCS bomb fusing system. The little yellow triangles in the bomb arming screen. It turns out it has impacted all existing missions in that the bombs do not explode no matter what you do with the fusing. The fix is to change the bombs to another type and then reinstall the required bomb. I have done this for all my campaigns and these will be in the next update. You may be able to do this yourself not sure.

Hi @tityus you will see from my comment above the problem is from a DCS update which has impacted the way AI responds to the script. Has worked fine for years until now Anyway i have fixed the issue, it will be in next update.

Hi @Ghostrider117 @RLTick @Amtran197 Found a work round fix for the blocking carrier aircraft. Will be in next update.

Hi @rosty Have found a work round fix for the blocking carrier aircraft, will be in next update.

Hi @unclesneep @Wild Wolves VFW Have found a work round fix for the blocking carrier aircraft. Will be in next update.

Hi @Midoxx I introduced the simplified A2A refuel for pilots who had yet to learn the black art of catching the basket. The only way of achieving this in DCS was with a static fuel load and setting parameters that you have to be in a position and speed behind the tanker as if you were going to catch the basket before the mission would allow you to proceed. Without this, inexperienced pilots who could not refuel simply would not be able to entertain longer missions as they would run out of fuel. Yes you do need to learn A2A refuel, it is essential but its not the easiest thing in the world to get down. So until then you can fly the longer missions, and when you can you can replay the normal version of the mission. So there is no bug but if you experience one let me know. (Biggest tip never look at the basket directly, look at the tanker, this will make you more stable.Also as you approach the basket never chase it, you will pio, if you miss it slowly move backwards and have another go.)

Hi @Asghardhyl Just so you know checked this out and found the problem was a change in the way DCS reacts to instructions prior to landing. Fixed it now and will be in next main update.

Hi Tacview and SRS are ok but so you know mods can impact campaigns in strange and unexpected ways. It is always recommended that DLC Campaigns are played without mods. In this case it is A DCS bug issue. I have found a fix which will be out in the next update. The problem seems to be the upgrade of the new fuze system on old missions.

Sorry guys as you know it’s a DCS bug, I have passed on to ED. Wouldn’t do an harm for you to put it on the forum as well.

Hi @Drakentoth Yes I believe there is a bug relating to SEAD attacks.

Hi @unclesneep Yes things are linked up so a missing character can mess things up. It is a DCS bug and I have reported to ED.

Hi @Amtran197 It's a DCS bug been reported.

HI @Asghardhyl Since last DCS update there has been a lot of bugs that have impacted missions. This issues of bombs not exploding could be a bug with the new fuse facility. I will check it out and let you know. You are not the first to have this issue. Thanks for the files they are very useful. Just to check are you running any mods in DCS?

As responded elsewhere both current DCS bugs. Will be reporting them, suggest you do the same so ED gets them corrected. The blocking as gone through many campaigns not just mine.

Hi @Wild Wolves VFW @rosty Unfortunately blocking on the carrier and SEAD AI not attacking are both new DCS bugs. I will be reporting them. Obviously mission has worked no problems until this bug!

@RedLion Got you! Sorry a bit slow today got a lot of jet lag at the moment.
