Would you just allow the boy to have his Iraq map!?!? All he wants is his map!!

Good day BD. Any news on how this campaign is coming along? I've been reading a lot about the Viper and F-18 campaigns but not much word on this one. Thanks! Really enjoy your work.

Calling an invasion "Freedom"?
Gunnar81 replied to bernardv's topic in A-10C Operation Persian Freedom Campaign
If the title of the campaign makes you cringe you may be in the wrong neck of the woods. Most of the aircraft and conflicts simulated in DCS are from the golden age of 'Freedom' in the middle east from the last 20 years. And the aircraft that don't fit into that category are from earlier eras of enforced 'Freedom' upon foreign peoples and lands. Good taste and war don't generally mix so I'm not sure where you were headed with your OP, just thinking out loud or ?? Like ChillNG mentioned if you actually played the campaign you'd understand the theme, you literally judged a book by its cover without ever reading a page! -
I know I'm late to the party, but I got the Hind a couple weeks ago and have been flying it non stop. What a great module, perfect for re-creating historic and current Russian operations in the maps we have. Thanks ED and great job.

Totally agree. I mean if you want to talk repetitive, most military pilots spend huge blocks of their career doing the same thing, taking off, flying around and landing. If they are lucky these are interspersed with a short periods of actual combat. But just the mundane enjoyment of flying the aircraft is a large part of the fun for a lot of people I think.

Trigger when player tuned to a specific frequency?
Gunnar81 replied to ScopeDope's topic in Mission Editor
Outstanding, thanks again. Sure makes missions/campaigns more interactive with these triggers! -
Trigger when player tuned to a specific frequency?
Gunnar81 replied to ScopeDope's topic in Mission Editor
I'm going to keep pushing forward with my necromancy practices here and bring this thread forth from the grave once more. Further more to this discussion from yesteryear, would someone happen to know what the condition parameter for the Hind radio's would be? -
Trigger when player tuned to a specific frequency?
Gunnar81 replied to ScopeDope's topic in Mission Editor
Thanks for this work a few years back Sedlo. I was looking for this exact Condition Parameter for some Harrier stuff I am working on and the radio trigger thing has always evaded me, until now. -
Found this on another topic after quite a bit of very specific searching in case anyone else was curious. Thanks to Sedlo for his work on this one a few years back Edit: Moderators could probably delete this thread, I found a previous one.

Hey scripters, I was hoping someone could help me with a pretty common script used in DCS campaigns where the player has to set his/her radio to the correct frequency before they are able to hear and/or see a message. I am looking for one in particular for the Harrier. I've dug around in the lua files and I think I've found the correct argument numbers etc but I just don't know how to put it all together into a proper script. Any help would be much appreciated. Edit: I know I'm close to figuring it out. dofile(LockOn_Options.common_script_path..'Radio.lua') local gettext = require("i_18n") _ = gettext.translate presets = {} if get_aircraft_mission_data ~= nil then local radio_from_mission = get_aircraft_mission_data("Radio") local uvhf_radio = radio_from_mission[1] if uvhf_radio then for i = 1,26 do presets[i] = (uvhf_radio.channels[i] or 225 ) * 1e6 end end end need_to_be_closed = true This is the Radio 1 lua file, but I am just unsure of how to enter it properly in the Do Script function of the editor

Gunnar81 replied to AG-51_Razor's topic in Training Missions
AV8BNA_UTM_Cooridnates_Input_be1217eb-bda1-4d69-a174-ca61d503c516.pdf Razbam Elmo posted this a while back, should help with the UTM entering. As far as working with JDAM's...I am not your guy for that process. I have been putting off learning that part of the Harrier for some reason. -
Warthog: Flying the A-10 in the Gulf War by William Smallwood is a good place to start if you are looking for information about how it was used in a conventional warfare setting. There are a few Osprey Publishing books about its use in Afghanistan as well for more of a modern look at how the Hog has been used. As for advice, just keep at it trying to learn the thing. I found that by learning the A-10 as a first module I was able to learn everything else relatively quickly after so consider yourself studying for future modules as well!

Sweet! Any rough ETA? This looks really good.

We Want To Hear Your Ideas For A New Map In DCS!
Gunnar81 replied to danielzambaux's topic in DLC Map Wish List
I think the Balkans is a no brainer with a portion of Italy for NATO forces to fly out of and the Adriatic Sea. I can't think of a better map that would suit our current list of aircraft except maybe Korea... -
Chuck, appreciate all the work you put into these guides. As a fellow Canadian, I salute you!

Single Mission Question: Can Wingmen be Immortal but not the Player?
Gunnar81 replied to King39's topic in Mission Editor
I think a lot of mission/campaign makers are going more towards making the wingman a seperate flight and using triggers and commands to have him follow you etc. By doing this I believe you could set it up that he would be invincible in the advanced options of the editor? It's been a while since I've fiddled in the editor, maybe someone more experienced could chime in.. -
I agree! Very much enjoy the Harrier, have for a couple years now.

available as a free dlc No Marianas Map in Steam?
Gunnar81 replied to cfrag's topic in DCS: Marianas
Yep this is correct. Once the patch downloads on steam goto the DLC section on steam and download the Mariana's as a seperate free 'DLC' -
Sounds like it could be an INS issue? Sorry I can't be of more help, I prefer to use the more legacy ord on the Harrier.

In maintenance hours for sure the Apache beats any helo out there. Hopefully ED simulates that by only allowing you to fly it 70% of the hours in a week
