@andytts You need to be within 20 miles because the radio station is obscured by the hills. You also need to be high enough I would suggest 20k for same reason. Should then work, see notes above. I will double check and fly it this end to ensure its' not a new bug. Also are you open beta or stable, normal mission or EZ refuel or increased difficulty. Most important are you running any mods. Thanks

Shouldn’t be that hard. Remember in daylight ensure your head mounted display is up and running as with the 9x you can take out bandits almost in your 9 and 3. Yes the next one is with the F18. In fact you will see the same characters as each of my campaigns are linked with an on going story line.

Great. To be honest working on the latest campaign have noticed in some A2A engagement an increased difficulty getting a 9x lock.

Hi, thanks for that, not had a chance to check yet, but doesn’t look right. Can you submit it as a bug to ED please. The more that raise it the quicker they will fix it. As I said it’s nothing the campaign scripting can control.

@Sparviero1978 just checked the scripting out. To make things a little harder on this one you need to get in position as you have done before at the right height and speed limits. This time 70 seconds have to pass from the time your wingman enters the small zone around Texaco. Was this case. So either you were way ahead of your wing refuelling so did not wait in the correct position for 70 seconds after he started refuelling or you just did not wait 70 seconds for the mission to move on. Do you think this could have been the issue. The other problem we had last time is not present with this mission.

Hi They are moving quite slow which can be a problem for radar in DCS. You should be able to, and have always been able to, lock on them with your AIM9X. If this is no longer the case it is not a Campaign scripting issue but a DCS bug and you should report to ED on the forum so they can fix it. I will try it out myself and let you know how i get on.

The next Campaign, ' OPERATION GREEN LINE' is on its way.

Hi Firstly are you running any mods? secondly are you you using stable or open beta. You should just head to Dodge who should kill all the boghammers, then the mission proceeds so definitely not normal. Does this happen every time? I will take a look myself as could be new DCS bug. Thanks EDIT: Checked this out, it appears the DCS AI is no longer very good at taking boghammers out with a gun. They are not shooting on some passes. Will fix this by giving them AGM65F's, that works much better. Will update mission for next DCS update. Thanks for the heads up.

@Sparviero1978 @Spider64 UPDATE: I have checked the EZ refuel in mission 6 and found a problem which I have fixed now. Will be in next DCS update. Thanks to both for the heads up.

Hi Glad you got it sorted. There is no trigger to get a response from JTAC it is only the DCS modelling of the radio. I think the valley must cast quit a distinct radio shadow so you need to be high enough to get above that. No problem though, as DCS has so many updates I am dependent on fellow pilots to point out when there is a new bug so I can fix them. Been working on the latest Campaign for 7 months now it will be called, ‘Operation Green Line’. Thanks.

Hi I will check it out. Previously with this mission you just needed to ensure you are not in a radio shadow as it is down in a valley. Regarding the uncomplete 9 line i have had a similar issue on the Serpent's Head which I have fixed. Will let you know how i get on. Also make sure your not running any mods. EDIT Just did a quick extract test and set Ford at 20k within 2nm and managed to get successful responses in the supercarrier version and supercarrier EZ version. I will fly it through next but check you are high enough. Try 20 k.

Hi Glad your enjoying the campaign. No there is no fuel consumption that is the price you have to pay for the EZ refuel facility. Its the only way I could set a solution where you do not actual have to connect to the basket, your aircraft is set up for about 50% full but it will not reduce. If I didn't set this up you would actually run out of fuel, not perfect I know but it does allow people who cannot yet catch the basket get experience in the longer missions. In the normal version your fuel reduces as expected. Hope this helps

Hey @SHazmak Checked out the Comms issue in Mission 9 of ROPL on return to the ABE. Found the problem and fixed it. It will be out in the next DCS update. It only effects the normal version the EZ refuel and increased difficulty options are ok. Thanks for the heads up

@Gripen 4-1 Glad to hear it. It is a strange intermittent bug that one. Nothing I can do as it is scripted correctly. All DLC paid for campaigns are strictly no mods. Mods can have some really strange effects on scripted campaigns which cannot be foreseen. It is enough for us Campaign creators to keep up with the DCS updates without considering the hundreds of mods which are themselves not maintained in line with the latest DCS updates. Cheers

Hi @Gripen 4-1 Are you running any mods and are you stable or open beta? Yes, if you don't turn right as instructed your wing will not take it off. That's why tower communication is for you turn right. This is not a bug. As campaign scripting is based on triggers, as it says in the brief, you must follow the instructions given. Obviously Dodge was ok the first time but the second time wasn't. I have seen this happen once before. It doesn't normally happen. This is not a campaign bug but a DCS bug and is worth reporting to ED on the forum as it is nothing to do with the campaign scripting otherwise it would happen all the time. I will check it out this end. Hope this helps.

Hi @SHazmak Will look at the Mission 9 comms to the ABE on return. Could you tell me which option you were using is it normal or the EZ refuel or increased difficulty . Are you open beta or stable and finally are you running any mods. Regarding which CAT you go to and problems with the crew its not a thing controlled by the mission editor. In fact although I give a direction which one to use it does not matter from a DCS point of view you can use any and they should work. What I think has happened especially with cats 4 or 3 is that you have not gone sufficiently down the carrier before turning to face the cats. It has happened to me may times. If you do not approach the cat form a sufficient distance away the crew does not know your there and will not respond. So your to short for CAT three but when you taxi up to cat 2 you have plenty of distance and it works. It's not a bug but just how DCS is. Hope this helps, will let you know outcome of my check on the carrier comms. Thanks.

Think your right @CH4Pz in that situation don't wait for the 120 to go active, there are no friendlies ahead so Pitbull is a good option and at the very least will make them go defensive so easier to deal with. @Solid_84 give it a try.

Ok, thanks will check it out.

HI Are you running any mods? Are you right behind the basket ? Are you using open beta or stable.

No problem, hope you enjoy SH2

What you are seeing is an unzipped mission file. You have unzipped too far. I just did a test download. I note you are using the Nevada and Black sea 6 mission option. Below is what you will see if you unzip the downloaded file once. I have highlighted the mission 6 files.

Hi What is the problem? The file will be for mission 6 and will have exactly the same name. It has to be, mission files have to have the same name to work with the existing campaign file.

Just tried the JTAC on this mission and worked ok. Maybe try again?

The JTAC in this last mission has now been fixed and I have updated the user files accordingly.
