Thanks for the tips! It'd be cool if it was included in the vanilla editor, though.

Just a suggestion... Personally, I find spotting other aircraft in DCS to be very difficult, and often fly the labels on - dot only setting. The issue with that is that the labels are either RED or BLUE, depending on which coalition it is. I find that makes it too easy to tell which dot is a good guy, and which dot I need to engage. Can we have a setting for the Label - Dot Only to be monochrome for all aircraft? Maybe just an yellow or orange dot for all? That way it will still help with spotting, but not make it too easy to tell who is who in the zoo. Please, thanks, over and out. SEDLO

Put this code in as a DO SCRIPT near the start of your mission... Handler = {} function Handler:onEvent(event) if event.id == world.event.S_EVENT_SHOT and event.initiator == Unit.getByName('yourUNITNAME goes here') then trigger.action.setUserFlag('501', true) end end world.addEventHandler(Handler) Give your AI a couple of TRIGGERED ACTION, one being SWITCH WAYPOINT (to whatever one you want it to go to when you shoot), maybe a ROE Weapons Hold, and a REACTION TO THREAT as None. Now, set a condition that when flag 501 becomes true, you make the action AI TASK PUSH, and set the SWITCH WAYPOINT, ROE Hold, and REACTION TO THREAT NONE in the drop down.. Of course, you can make the flag whatever value you want it to be, and don't forget to put the UNIT Name of your aircraft in the code above (not the GROUP NAME).

I found how to do things like this in the word document posted in this thread: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=81376 Make sure your DCS is not running. Now you need to change a line in the file "Mission Editor.lua" which can be found in your DCS install folder here: Mission Editor/Mission Editor.lua Open that file with Notepad++ and find and change the following value: “OPTIONS_ADD_COMMAND_CODES_TO_TOOLTIP” line from “false” to “true”. Restart DCS and go to the Options/Controls area. Hover your mouse over the keyboard of joystick values of the command you wish to know about and a pop up will show you the command number and the values. Everytime you update, repair or reinstall DCS, you'll have to change the Mission Editor.lua file to enable this again. It will open up a whole new world in your mission making, believe me!

X: Set Command with Value Command: 52 Value: -1

Thanks, Draconus, I'll check it out.

Right on!

Just taking a quick look away from the computer, but I think you need a comma after the "flag = 5" part

A couple I've photographed over the years:

I'm really glad you liked it! Thanks for the kind words.

I'll be pre-ordering.... Looking forward to flying the Viper in DCS! (and making some missions/campaigns for it, too)

You could put a switched condition for your flight to “set frequency for unit”, select your wingman, and then type the frequency you want them on. Set that to go off at mission start plus one second. Then tune your right side radio to whatever frequency you set your wingman to be on and you’re good to go.

That is the right place... Do you own the Nevada NTTR map?

I just downloaded it again and it seems to be working.... Are you running Open Beta or Stable? If stable, the directory would have to be changed. When you're in the campaign menu in DCS, are you looking under the My Campaigns tab?

That has to do with the way the sequence works on the way points. It will only show the first 14. Deselect sequence and WP15 should be there.

Hey FD! It’s going well, I’ve got three missions 100% complete, about five of them that are complete just missing voiceovers, and the rest are somewhere between 50 and 80% Still waiting for targeting pod, Harpoon, and some of the other weapons to be released so I can finish some of the missions. Cheers!

In regards to callsign, keep in mind the SA display will show other LINK16 capable aircraft as the lirst and last letter of the DCS callsign. In the campaign I'm working on I've also decided to go for different callsigns (for other flights, at least), but I wanted the SA page to look realistic. So I came up with lists of words that start and end with the same letter as the DCS ones. example: [TABLE]PONTIAC PICNIC PANIC PLASTIC PHONIC PUBLIC [/TABLE] Callsigns like RAVEN or SPARTAN wound't show up accurately on the SA page, because currently it will only show the usual SPRINGFIELD, UZI, COLT (etc) first and last letters only.

It's because other ships in the formation may have TACANs as well. One of the destroyer, one for the cruiser, etc...

Wow, thanks for the kind words, Entropy! I really enjoyed making this mission, and I'm really glad people are liking it. Just an FYI, I've updated the mission slightly to fix the wrong voice overs that played when declining to refuel. Plus, I've tweaked some triggers and zones, plus adjusted a few other things.

Awesome, I learned something very useful today!

I'm getting it, too.. Need a log file, or is it a known thing?

Hey Draconus! Thanks for the great feedback! I tried to make it as immersive and realistic as possible, and I think it worked! I’ll have another run through of the voice overs, I had thought I got them all, but obviously not yet. Thanks! As for the time, the time is in Zulu. So, 08:45 is 16:45Z. The Hornet clock defaults to Zulu time, but I guess the Tomcat clock shows local. Just an FYI, I’m currently constructing a new campaign for the Hornet on the Persian Gulf Map. Should be good!

Seems like the same issue is happening to a lot of people now (me included). It's a DCS thing, check here: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=235731

Oh no! Can you send me your crash log? I can see if it’s something on my end.
