+1 I don't get it. Everytime the FM seems to be good, it gets "reviewed" and is broken afterwards. The Gazelle is my favourite module by far, but this constant great-horrible-cycle really spoils it.

Hi, I would love to have a Spanish skin for the KC-130 for the beautiful Spanish Hornets and Matadors :) The old C-130 skins that are availabke do not seem to work any longer. Thanks :)

Hello, is it possible to buddy lase a target for an AI wingman to recreate a hunter/killer scenario? I lased the target, but my wingman ignored my "attack my target" command.

And I guess that was exactly what the OP - and not only him - would like to know: when will we actually see any of this additional content in our sims at home?

I too bought the Aviojet a while back and do not regret it. A fine little aircraft with big potential, I can't wait for the CC version to be released to us :)

Hi Philippos, "Gazelle destroyed" is just the wreckage on the ground, that explodes when you come closer. I found this to be the only way, to still have a recognizable Gazelle body on the ground and not just shattered bits and pieces :) I went through the triggers and found it. While adapting the mission from 1.5 to 2.5 I created a new trigger for red side wins. No idea what I was thinking about, but the conditions make no sense at all - I removed them now. The only other "End mission" action now is, when you are back at your FARP. I attached the revised mission and also updated the resource in the file section. Thanks so much for pointing me at this problem :) Cheers - Carsten CG_SA342_Operation_Hitchhiker _2_5_1.miz

Hi, very good hint - thanks! Zora was initially built for 1.5 and the city has changed quite noticeably in 2.5 (same for Kingpin). Especially the new trees pose a problem, so I had to relocate the Grads slightly. I will recheck the positions and update the documents accordingly. There is a Georgian skin in the file section, but iirc it is not listed as Gazelle skin, but as "other" skin. On my Machine I had to open the textures and save them again as DDS format again however.

Hi, thanks for the feedback. Two possibilities - there is enemy artillery firing at the hill. I was "shot" down by it twice already (they fire long, into the woods behind you). Another condition is the wellbeing of the downed crew on the ground. If it takes you very long, there might be enemy APCs on the other side of the river. Could it be they fired at your guys on the ground? Did the stats say that Red side won?

HAWK works fine for me in 2.5

Thanks mate :) New missions are already in the making

Sorry mate, I forgot to subscribe to my own thread and missed your question. Hope everything works now?

Thanks for the help guys :) Before falling back on something like moose, I'd like to figure out a few things on my own though :) Guess I need to load a few sample scripts and go through them to see the correct syntax. But I am confident

That'd be perfect :) Just an example how this getDetected works, I (hope) I can go from there :)

Hi, I published a couple of missions so far and would like to take my next missions to a new level by using LUA scripts. For starters I would love to have a simple script returning TRUE if an aircraft (myAircraft) is painted by SAM site's radar (myRadar) (preferebly the tracking radar). I found snippets and a huge script, but both are a riddle as I have zero LUA experience so far. Fear not, I am not a doofy, I earn my living with script programming. I just need a jump start for LUA/DCS. Any fine fellow mission builder willing to help and push me into the right direction? Thanks Carsten

Works fine for me - embarking and disembarking, both with AI and player controlled helicopters. See attached sample mission. Troop Transport.miz

I did some more tests, this time with the modern tanks (high vs average): M1A2 vs T80: 4:0 Challenger II vs T80: 4:1 Leclerk vs T80: 4:2 and the Leopard drops off again: Leopard 2A6 vs T80: 0:4 Both Leopard 1 and Leopard 2 really need a boost.

Both. The T-55/72s fired one round short, the next was most of the time bullseye. In case of the T-72 it was mostly lethal, even when hitting the Leopard 2 right from the front. The western tanks - Leo 1, Leo 2 and M60 were very inaccurate. If the hit the target, one could nicely see the round bounce of the enemy tank. The only winning combination was Leopard 2A6 set to excellent. But that can't be it - I would expect a Leopard 1A3 superior to the T-55 and roughly en par with the T-72.

T-55/72 were set to average, the western tanks set to good or excellent

Hi, for a new mission I am trying to create a tank battle, which is basically impossible as the Russian made tanks are kind of invinceable. For instance: - 6 Leopard 1A3 or M60A3 don't stand chance against 4 T-55s - 6 Leopard 2A6 are easily defeated by 4 T-72s. The western tanks rarely score a kill (the T-55/72s showing their sides), while the eastern tanks easily score kills through the frontal armour of their western counterparts. I know Russian tanks are good, but the T-72 should by no way be a match for a tank like the Leo 2A6. A propper balance that enables us to build battles with at least an uncertain outcome would be appreciated.

Hi, sorry if this has been asked/answered before - I searched, but could not find anything. Is there a list of the X: Cockpit params somewhere? I am looking for Airspeed and VSI specifically. I do know "RADAR_ALT", but I have no clue where I found that a year ago :/ Cheers Carsten

Are these skins available for download ? :)

Hi, is the Mistral mod still downloadable somewhere ? :)
