DM, how do you know it is not working? If the probability is set to 50% then the numbers roll of the dice might have come up each time. That is the problem with trouble shooting something like this. You need to take a large sample to see if it is indeed working.

The latest version possible with the info available to ED. Now I wish I had got to know the Havoc in EECH.

I don't care what anyone says, the MI-28 is a beautiful bird. I hope we get it after the Apache A Model.

Sheesh Jack, no sense in getting butt hurt over this.

My posts indicate 20% chance of showing up not 80%.

That is the only other computer you have or that is the computer you are trying to put it on to get it to work?

Have you tried installing it on to another computer?

I must have worded my statement wrong. Set each column with a 20% chance OF SHOWING UP. That is 5 columns, each with a 20% chance of showing up.

5 column @20% chance equals 100% is covered so you could get one or two or maybe none. It isjust a technique he could try was all i was imparting.

Let the program install to the default location. Let it install DX for you. Is this a DL version or a DVD version? You took care of the drivers so that is not an issue. Just thinking out loud here. Sometimes programs don't like to be placed other then their default locatoin so try that and see if that works.

Another way to do this is build several convoys. Say 5 convoys and mix and match their composition. Then give each convoy a 20% of showing up in the mission. That would mean that you would get at least one convoy to show up and you wouldn't know which one it was. Simple solution that requires a little work but should fit the bill for what you want to do.

ATGM warfare back in the 80's and 90's, from the ground was to fire 2 missiles and unass the battle position for an alternate. It doesn't take long for the enemy to zero in counter fire to your position with systems that can reach out and touch you even if the enemy you are firing on can't reach you. I would believe that Air ATGM missions are the same way. Know the lay of the land and have a plan B and C to lay carnage on the enemy without getting shot yourself.

I think it has been reported but no sense in keeping quiet about it. Report it in the PROBLEMS/BUGS section just in case , and/or to reinforce the problem.

Now that is a bit insensitive and unpolitically correct coding :D :D :D "fagkills"??????

That was funny as hell and a mistake any of us can make. Again, your mastery of English is amazing. Stand off. That is the key and battle space awareness. You have to know when you are in cowboy country (Good Guy) and when you are in Indian country (Bad Guy). That helps you identify battle positions that maximize your stand off.

EtherealN, I think you were meaning to say you beat yourself "up", not "off". LMAO :D :D Your English is amazingly good, but it failed you that time. :D :D :D

I think you got a bad disc. Return it for a new one.

If other DVD's work then you might have a bad DVD. Check the BS DVD in another computer though.

Try the disk in another computer. If recognized in the other computer then you might have a bad DVD player. If not recognized, you might have a bad disk. Troubleshooting 101, I love it.

If he had added that they sprayed WD-40 on it, I would have more confidence in them :D

Also of note on landings, not to burst anyone's bubble, but approach is important but the landing is scripted in LOMAC. If you fly a decent approach and not do something whacked, you will land with three on the ground every time because of the scripting of the landing. Now I wouldn't try that in DCS A-10 when it comes out though. You will actually have to learn how to land the thing from approach to final shut down. :D

I love seeing so many countries checking in with status reports. It reminds me just how international and diverse this hobby is.

That can't be a model. It looks too damn real.

I did those missions long ago and am sorry for the omission that would have made ID easier. Maybe someday I will go and do all the vehicle ID's in a campaign format. I ensure I put in the breif for which side you should fly :D

Not correct. Ubisoft owned everything up until LOMAC 1.02 patch. ED retained rights after that. They did it smartly.
