Hello folks, I need some voices for an upcoming UH-1 Huey campaign. All of them in English, with neutral or American accent. Let me know if you are willing to help out, and if so, send me a voice sample on Discord if possible. Cheers,

You told them to engage, eh? The SA-15's are totally acting like super weapons now, not a whole lot I can do about it, when this campaign was done they were strong but manageable, now you can't do a whole lot to take them down, they intercept HARM's, Mav's, JSOW's, Sidearms and so on. I don't know if that's the case in the reality but they seem to be way too capable right now.

Any reason you took off from the other side of the airport? You should have taxied on the right and take off from there.

On 2.7.17 The latest Open Beta I don't have any problems. This should have worked on Stable, I don't remember being a lot of changes from Beta to Stable. Any chance you can get a video of the mission? Cheers,

I'll check the mission, If there's something wrong it must have happened after the last update. More of a developers conspiracy than a Pentagon.

Nothing there that should cause this, except for the Echo19 mod, but the AI should follow the commands anyway.

I don't think so, that initial message with refueling it's just a "unit in zone" trigger, and the tanker has quite a long route following the coast, nothing scripted and or triggered there, I don't want everything to feel very scripted, if you are a bit too early on pushing from WP2 you may be refueling in a turn, if you are late you may be chasing the tanker towards WP4 in both cases you move towards WP 4 and that's okay. In your case I wonder if it is a mod that may be affecting radio comms.

Hi, I ran a test on the Mission 4, that's the one with the refuel with a formation of 4 planes. It works for me as intended. I was able to order them to refuel, then I plugged in, the F-18's followed me to WP 4 and then they went and dealt with the HAWK site and the other SAM in the area, I was able to go over the range of SA-15's and drop the bombs on the ammo depot. I haven't done any AAR in about 2 months, damn, I was rusty. So, on the latest OB it works for me. Any chance you can get a recording maybe? I had my flight on radio 1 and Texaco on radio 2 Cheers, Sorel

The only thing I could think of is some mods maybe, but I'll test it in a vanilla install and I'll let you know in a few hours. One more thing. Are you sure it's mission 8? That line with the nuggets drinking first is on an earlier mission.

I'll test it today and let you know. Telling your flight to refuel should be a no brainer on this. It should just work. If I can find a workaround I'll post an updated mission.

Good idea, thanks

Hi guys, My next campaign happens in the UH-1. Since there's at least 4 people in the crew there's a lot of chatter in the cockpit, some of it is mission specific and some of it more narrative. Adding subtitles will create some big walls of text that are not easy to deal with especially in VR. I'm leaning on just adding the mission specific data in each voiceover headings, radio frequencies, other hints for the missions and leave the narrative just as sound. This way with the message history feature you could still go back and make sure you know what needs to be done. Please give me your input as I'd like to hear anyone's opinion. Cheers,

That was a mistake on my part when creating the briefing docs. Sorry about that. Converting it shouldn't require a tool. A calculator or math should do it. I'm working in some additional updates with the AI logic on all the missions and part of that I'll put the coordinates in the proper format. To be honest throughout the campaign if you study you brief and know where the bullseye is and where you are you wouldn't have to do an offset too many times.

See this please

Well, they took good care of you. You were able to do your mission without the Harm being a pain. Of course they were not behaving like this when this was put together. AI Changes, I'm no going to check this until the 20th after the next update. Otherwise I'll do changes and then who knows what will happen.

A tad too late for this now I'll see what I can do about the rest. Thanks for the suggestions.

Correct, they were not available in 2002. I think they got introduced in 2007.

Yeah, the tweaks should make the AI more eager to engage, also I fixed the radio confusion. If you want to continue, you can skip it and play it after the update

I tweaked that mission, I'll try to send it to ED as soon as possible maybe it will make it on the next update.

I checked this one and when setting up the laser It's NO LOS. I'll try to tweak it and see if I can place a unit in a spot where there's line of sight to the APC's, indeed it would make things so much easier and accurate on how the SEALS operate.

Thanks a lot for the feedback. I'll look into it.

Roger that! Sorry, I missed putting it in my bug tracker

In test and when this was launched, I was able to take the whole group out, using the ordinance and guns, there's no AA threats close to you anymore. The same, the wingman has to be asked politely multiple times to go and engage, sorry, that's ED's AI. I'll review it and see how they are acting in this latest update. It s quite a sight when you see 4 Harriers going for guns on those launchers. Cheers,

Thanks, I discovered another bug in it. working on a fix right now, it should be available in a day or two. Dang active runways changing after every update, always something to do.

Do you tell the AI to cover you? This is the only way he is engaging more or less. Also, using the SA-6 is not a sin. AI is tough lately with all the changes that are added after each update. Sorry if it was a pain. I'll change the conditions to just surviving the mission. A year and a half ago when this mission was put together AI was behaving differently. Who knows how it will behave after the next update.
