A related issue - if you wait 10 minutes and then take off the wingman doesn't even taxi from the parking spot. They just sit there unresponsive in parking with their engine running.

Here you go @AlphaJuliet AV8B wingman TO bug.trk

@AlphaJuliet This appears to not be fixed in the current open beta. The wingman taxis to the tarawa takeoff point and then sits there with flaps up. If I contact tarawa and call inbound the wingman immediately takes off. I'll put together a example mission or track if you like.

I got the Av8B a few days ago and it's a really great module. I do find the switchology really strange after using the A-10 etc, but if you've got the patience to learn the sensor manipulations to designate and then employ weapons then you'll be fine. I've definitely had a few issues where everything is working fine and the weapon just absolutely refuses to fire. These aren't issues with the module, but limitations and restrictions of the actual aircraft. Once I had accidentally bumped my nozzles which disabled weapons for example, so I locked a maverick and it just refused to come off the rail. Landing and taking off is a joy. I sometimes just fly patterns for fun. If there's one thing I think could use updating, it is the canon sound. The rest of the sounds are 10/10. Don't forget to remove chocks when you first load in.

Yes - if you want to plot an intercept course and see the target box in the HUD, hit POL (Police Intercept mode). I use this when joining up with the tanker until I get into visual range and go nose cold.

Yeah no worries - I understand that versions make things inconsistent. Also note from my previous post that Berger actually parks his aircraft and crashes with his wingman and they eject - something the player sees when coming back and parking. You might be able to change the parking allocation to fix that.

Ok - have completed this mission after a week of frustration. For once the F-16's actually did a decent job of taking on the Phantoms. Normally they are only firing about 3 amraams total before entering a dogfight and getting overwhelmed. One major issue seems to be that the F-4's are carrying 8 missiles each. So with about 8 of them plus the other flights they simply overwhelm the blue flights. In the end half the blue force were shot down. The last of the enemies had to be dispatched with guns because we were out of missiles. Also the AI flights that come back in the other direction land and crash at the parking ramp. More aircraft ran out of fuel - like the other missions in the campaign, the AI need to be given unlimited fuel or something.

Just tried again and after a long dog fight I was blown out of the sky after every other blue force jet was shot down. Blue force was decimated by the less skilled red force. Almost all the phantoms were still alive despite the F-16's being told to go after them. They launched on the tigers instead. Even after shooting down 3 enemies I can't get past this.

Just to bring this up again. I've tried mission 6 many many times. And I'm continually being shot out of the sky with little warning, usually by the tigers with an aim-9. They seem to find me a few minutes in. It's such a pain to have to fly all the way out hampered by channel switching for awacs and wingman. In the latest attempt I hadn't even been able to get a single lock on a target in TWS before being shot down by tigers. Is it meant to be this hard?

Okay - not sure if it helped, but I made the JTAC immortal and it worked both times I tried it. So all done, great success!:pilotfly:

Hello - on Mission 13. I've done this a couple of times now and there's no reply from the AI JTAC. I even u-turned to fly the valley again to try and trigger the AI JTAC - no response. On the right channel, but it seems to be bugged. Mission track can be grabbed here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1G5LcOVTkRt_QGDDg76RrOaIPdz40rsV0/view?usp=sharing

Okay - good to know!

Hi! I thought I would find a post here about compatibility of this excellent campaign with 2.5, but didn't see anything. Last night I tried mission 2, but no radio calls occured at all, no events happened in the mission... it just seemed like no triggers or actions were activating. So I flew around and then quit. Any ideas?

I concur. The campaign is something else. There's nothing quite like putting the old A-10 to use in such an operation. +1 for having the flights all launch in front of you at Nellis.

Love the ramp starts! Also loving the campaign in general! A+

Well I have the same error after updating to 1.5. What was the fix???

Hmm what am I missing, in DCS 2.0 I tune to frequencies with the nav radio, turn it on, switch the senstitivity switch to high, flip the HSI from ADF to VOR but I can't get any life from the steering bars. I don't hear any beacon active. Am I missing something? Are you guys able to get live VOR navigation in Nevada?

If you look in F10 the frequencies listed on the map are different to the editor. Like 1177.00 MHZ.

Dynamic campaign 100%

If you think the KA-50 is difficult to fly, pick up the UH-1 module and all your problems will be solved.

F117 confirmed! Gather pitchforks, I'll meet you outside his house!

This is 6am monday mornings for me! Oh well, totally worth it. Q: Can Matt give us some back ground into ED - the structure of the teams around the world. Is there a team dedicated to each part of DCS etc. Perhaps a history of how this has changed over time. Nothing too indepth but it might help newer pilots understand DCS World development. Q: Is there anything he can share regarding the plans for a dedicated server build. Once we have that the online community will go nuts! Q: How does helmet mounted night vision and the target pods etc look in EDGE? Im particularly interested if BHOT and WHOT views look the same. Q: As a mission maker how many AI do you generally add to a mission for balanced gameplay? 20-30 units? Q: Can we see Las Vegas at night? What lighting technology is used to display so many lights efficiently? Q: Can we get a combined arms view of the map and a look at infantry? Q: What changes are coming for ATC? Is it the same system just in a new map or is it being overhauled? Q: If ATC is a blocking bug is there any chance you'll ship an alpha with that code disabled? THANKS!

In the next live stream I'd love to see any changes that are coming with ATC. Particularly being able to declare an emergency and any changes to the approaches. Also, Combined arms in the detailed areas and a helicopter view.

Totally fake. It was just a webcam of Matt talking over some real life footage of pilots with GoPro cameras.

The modules aren't changing much so no one really cares what aircraft he flies. What we care about is looking around the map and seeing the sites. Personally I'm interested in the airbases and some areas that would be good for target practice!
