    @rforce So, I'm doing a complete review and update of the campaign and after reading your input (above) I couldn't figure out why I put 257.80 on the datasheet until I just happened to look at the DCS World List of Available Beacons. It lists Kobuleti Tower at 257.80 MHz which is, obviously, wrong. Corrected to 262.00 and thanks for pointing that out.

    @Blackadder 55 I didn't see this email. I must have missed it but I am working on it now. Will run through the campaign this week and next to try to see what the problems are. Please bear with me. I'm truly sorry you had a bad experience as I've tried to make this campaign both fun and challenging. I'll get back to you once I've had some time to run though them all. John

    Thanks for the feedback and thank you for taking a chance on my first campaign. I'm not sure what you are referencing regarding the need for "updating". Are there triggers not occuring or some aspect which isn't working? I'm not sure what you mean. Also, what about the JTAC interface don't you like?

    Buzz,

    What's your email. I'd like to send you a birthday present.

    Congratulations on your 80th. I just turned 60 myself but I just have a nagging suspicion I won't see 80. I love the fact you're playing this game. Speaks a lot about your character. May you have many more birthdays.

    Hello, I hope someone will be reading this but I have been using JtacAutoLase pretty frequently in my missions and it works beautifully but I've come across a few scenarios where I'd really like to "radio" the JTAC to turn off the laser temporarily so another target can be prosecuted. I've successfully been able to add a "Start" trigger via Radio Add and the JTAC (Predator) starts lasing and smoking but cannot, for the life of me, find a command to temporarily turn off the laser. I've tried ctld.JTACStop, ctld.JTACStop('JTAC1'), ctld.cancelLase('JTAC1'), ctld.JTACAutoLaseStop('JTAC1') but none work to stop the lase and then restart (via another trigger). Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. John Never mind. Just got it to work with ctld.JTACAutoLaseStop('JTAC1')!! It must have been a spelling error.

    I honestly couldn't say. I haven't tried it yet and probably won't until it's out of Beta. But it could be since the cloud base in the static weather ususally varies +/- 500 feet.

    It's all done in the Mission editor. OPen the campaign folder in ME and then select the mission you want to open. Each mission is a *.miz file but can also be opened by a zipping app such as Winzip, etc. The campaign is "wrapped" by the .cmp file. The .cmp file is created in Campaign Builder (below the Mission Editor in the DCS main screen).

    Hello, Trying my hand in using a trigger to set VHF FM (Comm 3) to 30.40 (or any freq for that matter). But I just can't figure out the proper setup: I know I need to use Cockpit Perform Clickable Action: I found the Cockpit device = 56 But having problems figuring out the correct Command and Value to set the radio to 30.40 MHz (taken from the clickabledata.lua file): elements["PTR-ANARC186-VHFFM-FREQ-1"] = radio_wheel(_("Frequency Selector the 1nd"), devices.VHF_FM_RADIO, device_commands.Button_9, device_commands.Button_10, 153,{-0.1, 0.1}, {157,{0.125,0.775},0.5}) elements["PTR-ANARC186-VHFFM-FREQ-2"] = radio_wheel(_("Frequency Selector the 2nd"), devices.VHF_FM_RADIO, device_commands.Button_11, device_commands.Button_12, 154,{-0.1, 0.1}, {158,{0.0,1.0},1.0}) elements["PTR-ANARC186-VHFFM-FREQ-3"] = radio_wheel(_("Frequency Selector the 3rd"), devices.VHF_FM_RADIO, device_commands.Button_13, device_commands.Button_14, 155,{-0.1, 0.1}, {159,{0.0,1.0},1.0}) elements["PTR-ANARC186-VHFFM-FREQ-4"] = radio_wheel(_("Frequency Selector the 4th"), devices.VHF_FM_RADIO, device_commands.Button_15, device_commands.Button_16, 156,{-0.25, 0.25}, {160,{0.0,1.0},1.0}) I just can't figure which one to use. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks, John

    Eagle86,

    Hello. I'm John Schiller and I created Operation Agile Spear for the A-10C (King39). I've purchased Sky Warrior and, while only had time to play to Mission 2, enjoyed it very much.

    I'd like to pick your brain with a couple of questions regarding your technique:

    1. I really like the Music On/Off function and for the life of me haven't been able to recreate that in my next campaign Syrian Freedom. I've tried using a lone unit to broadcast an .ogg file from a mountaintop and was successful using an F10.Other command to trigger the music On using a Flag but CANNOT figure out how to turn it off to command. Also,. how did you implement that with Easy Comms when someone doesn't want to fiddle with adjusting radios? I just can't fingure that out.

    2. The other question I have - and I've been wracking my tiny brain trying to figure out - is how did you implement Skip Mission and Go Back 1 Mission? Did you use the Start Mission / End Mission actions or some other way? I also can't seem to implement this through the Mission Editor.

    Will you be producing another campaign as I don't see another under your banner but I hope so. I really like Sky Warrior. I am also planning to produce an AV-8D campaign after I release Syrian Freedom and any advice you can give regarding the Harrier would be greatly appreciated.

    All the best to you and your family during the Holidays,

    Yours,

    John Schiller

    Wow. That really looks awesome! Can't wait to try it out.
  13. King39
    I'm not sure what you are asking. Do you mean the stated cloud base in the mission isn't the same as with Dynamic weather? I can't comment on how Dynamic weather affects each mission as it's a work in progress in Beta and I typically avoid anything in Beta.
  14. King39
    @Razor18 Thanks for reporting that problem. The AI wingman (person) continues to be a problem in this fairly straightforward mission. I will look at it and see if I can come up with a permanent solution. Thanks again and Happy Holidays, John

    Hey,

    I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your Mission Editor Contextual Radio Menus spreadsheet. It's opened up a whole new way to spice up my campaigns. I wish I'd seen this before I created Operation Agile Spear but will be using it for my upcoming Operation Syrian Freedom and will be giving you full credit with links.

    Do you want me to credit you as Gmandnall or your real  name which you would have to send me.

    In either case, your work is greatly appreciated.

    John Schiller

      Thank you so much. Positive feedback is always appreciated!!!  It's Gareth Mangnall.....however I am also Pukin-Dog in DCS land either is fine :-). Please send me a link to your mission when created I'd love to see it in use...is it based on teh A-10 like Agile Spear???

  16. King39
    Great. Good. Thank you.

    Could you run through it again but use the Mission 3 files I just uploaded to the free download Google Drive folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Dcp02mRUxgSdOPP4LPiIwxG7_SbOURpo?usp=sharing Let me know how it runs.
  18. King39
    That should do it...
  19. King39
    OK, I'll look at it. This could be a result of the updated AI aircraft ED has been releasing.

    I wanted to take this opportunity to let you know that I've uploaded free TrackIR 5 Mount files for 3D printing. If you've ever lost the base for Track IR you'll know what I'm talking about. It's a small but necessary part for the TrackIR emitter unit which is easy to lose but hard to find. They want, I think, $25.00 USD for a replacement if you can find one. Well, I've designed one and uploaded it to DCS User Files and is free to a good home. It's my thanks to all of you who've taken a chance with Agile Spear: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3327772/

    This got my attention only because I had a similar setup with an MP3 player hooked up to my headset Clarke box but I played a Pink Floyd mix instead on my last two deployments. Worked really well until I got a firm talking to by the AC after one flight. Apparently it would bleed through into the intercomm when any of the backseaters (me included) would key to talk. I thought I had it filtered but appraently not. Was very cool while it lasted.

    Hi Blackadder 55, Thanks for trying out our campaign. Mission 3 doesn't have a JTAC but you will get a message when you've suffificiently cleared out the threats. Try it again. Good luck. All the best. You can call me John.
  23. King39
    Wow, just wow. Former maintainer I'm guessing?

    I'm sure this has been covered but I just can't find it: Specifically, all red Air Defense units cannot (do not) target Allied air units under Advanced Actions / Triggered Actions > Perform Task > Attack Group. HOWEVER they can/do target ground units. Is it me - am I doing something wrong or is this a bug? I just can't believe this hasn't been discussed before now. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, John

    The Mission 3 that is available now has been updated last week. Thank you.
