  1. Not sure if I missed something from a previous update as I haven't flown sling loading flights in the Mi-8 for some time. I had the "auto unhook" command bound to my throttle and even though I received a notification that it was on/off, the cargo would not release and would go through the ground. However, after some research I tried using the tactical drop command which worked fine. My only issue with this is that I can't understand the commands (they're not in English) and know when the cargo is safe on the ground and I can release. Just wanted to confirm this is normal behavior? Thank you for your help. EDIT: Tried it again after shutting down and remapping the bindings and auto unhook works in both single and multi thread. Thread can be closed.
  2. Not sure if this helps troubleshooting, but I am also experiencing the issue of having a Russian cockpit even though I've selected English. I was previously unaffected by this bug. However, it started affecting me when I began flying the second mission of the Mi-24 Border campaign that was released with the latest open beta update. I was not affected flying the first mission but I did close DCS between the first and second missions. The livery workaround works for instant action but not in the campaign as only one livery is permitted. I tried a dcs repair and deleting the mods/aircraft/mi-24 cockpit file followed by a repair without any improvement. Just wanted to share in case this helps. Edit: Confirm it affects multi-thread only. When i use the regular version, the issue goes away.
  3. Just wanted to say it definitely worked better after the clean up repair. Weed engaged the Mig-23 with an Aim-9 and the F-14s helped with the Su-27s. Thanks Baltic!
  4. So I did a cleanup and repair and selected the slow repair with the look for additional files. I think I had only done a slow repair before. Flew it again and had no issues. Thanks for your help!
  5. Thanks Baltic. I don't run any third party mods but I'll run a repair and let you know.
  6. Thanks Baltic. No, i don't use any 3rd party mods. I'll try it again at some point after a DCS repair and let you know if it's still there.
  7. Hi Baltic, Don't know if it's related to the issue with M13, but when I task Olive to engage the trucks at the compound, the radio calls are made but no weapons are actually released. This was confirmed by reviewing the mission summary. Can you confirm everything is working ok? Thanks!
  8. Just wanted you to know I experienced some AI issues in this mission from Weed. I had to fpy it 6 or 7 times because I was anticipating at least some mutual support based on the dialogue but was never supported by Weed. He would not engage the MiG-23s and would only engage the Brushbacks with a single AIM-9. The mission works fine for progression (i flew it a different way successfully after realizing Weed would not help in either engagement), but the player receives no help or support from Weed which makes it much more difficult. It's my second time through this campaign and still love the challenge of it! Thanks for the great work!
  9. Thanks Baltic! No worries. Just wanted you to be aware. I know that each new update also brings with it the question of what new bugs will occur.
  10. Hi Baltic, Just wanted you to know that I went to replay this campaign and that nothing happens after departure and pushing to strike in M5. I tried the workarounds mentioned above but none of them worked. Just wanted you to know. Also, out of curiosity, in M3 I hit the JTAC specified targets on the correct heading but the debrief said I missed. Is there something subtle I'm missing? Just wanted you to know. Really enjoy all of your campaigns!
  11. No worries, I definitely understand and that it's like a house of cards. I'll wait for the update which is hopefully coming soon! Love the campaign and I definitely appreciate the effort required to create it! Thanks for the reply!
  12. Mission 12 stopped progressing after orbiting with eyes on Tartus. I see the strikes on the northern and southern installations but there are no strikes on the middle installations. I believe its because the Tomcats don't drop. Is there way to force the mission yo progress? Loving the campaign!
  13. Hi Baltic, Just wanted to let you know that I could not add the third waypoint to the training flight plan as I kept getting a cdu input error. I had no issue adding the first two waypoints. I also tried adding train4 as the third waypoint and still received an input error. I think it's a DCS bug but wanted you to know in case I'm doing something wrong. Edit: I'm on the latest open beta. Edit 2: Disregard. Error was mine as I was omitting the space between the letters and numbers of the wp name. Post can be removed.
  14. Thanks for the update! There was definitely improvement in the taxiing and your suggestion of using the "cover me" command worked much better. Unfortunately, the DCS AI is still unpredictable and either won't attack or gets distracted by the Hawk SAM and tries to attack that, resulting in them getting shot down. I think the mission is good but is really handicapped by the AI being unpredictable making the anti air defenses much tougher as only the player really tries to meet the objective. I did pass the mission but that was only after returning to base and reaming and the AI only taking out 2 AA (I took out the other two). Maybe to get around the DCS AI issues it might be better to reduce the number of vehicles needed to be destroyed before mission success because it is quite challenging to destroy the necessary number on your own? Really enjoying the campaign and it's nice to have some content for the MiG-21. Hopefully DCS AI improves as it really hinders single player sometimes.
  15. Hi. Enjoying the campaign but I'm having some issues with Mission 5. First, on departure the su-22s land, even if I call for taxi before they actually touchdown, and then block the taxi route to rwy 24 for the wingmen. I get around this by immediately asking for taxi before I'm ready and let my wingmen go ahead as the su-22s do not land if I do this. Secondly, the wingmen will not attack the convoys through either "attack ground targets" or "attack primary and rejoin commands". This makes it very difficult to cause sufficient damage to the convoy due to the fierce air defences leaving me on my own. Thank you for your help!
