It would be nice if the button ' generate' mission would do also a check on the missions created by the user for missing items or faults. One that could complete the created mission in general adding the flags false / true. Its something like ' check for issues'. Kind regards RWC

Hi friends, I have been working on creating a mission. All goes well up untill a moment of action/explosion. A windows error pops up in the back ground about a ~mis00004830.lua file. Now i have searched my pc but there is no such file to be found. I have included a picture of the issue. It seems it is looking for this ~mis00004830.lua string in the mission that is using DCS default scripts on the C drive , but only the saved games is on there. The base installation is on my D drive. Does anyone know what this means and how to fix it ? Thanks in advance RWC

After my post a lot of you have experianced the issue in one way or another. I am sure they will come up with a fix soon and working on it. It seems this issue is only on the Beta version. I have recently cleared my install to the stable version, on advise from a member, and there this issue is not happening. Everything is working again as it should and i'm airborn again enjoying flights !

Hi Big, This is actually not during a flight , but on first startup load to the main menu after the clean install of the DCS stable version, before installing the purchased mods and terrains. There in the log i checked for any error reports. This is where i was suprised it showed up as it did in the DCS open beta version's log. So far all seems to be working perfectly fine and i couldn't be happier. Just thought it might be of interest/concern. It's a kind of a out of place report when everything seems to work just fine, don't you think ? One can't really tell what plane it affects from the error. It might be usefull data to the developers.

Find more here hope you will enjoy (Y) https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=dcs+cinematic&sp=CAI%3D

Hello friends, After the weight/payload issue in the OpenBeta , i changed to the stable version.

If it's affecting the AI or module planes ? Is this referring to the same issue error from planes failing to take off from the SC ? I still have no responces from my last post under the weapons section, just a confirmation from another client , so im hoping for some reactions in this section from other users. * I have included the logfile. Kind regards, RWC. dcs.log

Great job ! We NEED more dynamic ground and Carrier vehicles intead of the frozen statics !!""!!""!!"!!! Thanks alot ! Problems are usually caused by the DCS Betaversion i found out.....

So after trying to start from the air , one can see the wingman and all other AI (F/A-18 Addon) loosing lift and lack of thrust. So it is defenatly a problem with the plane itself. Only the plane you are flying seems to responce to thrust, and all others are batteling to stay airborn or climb, even when set to a airspeed of 430 Kts , the planes remain around 140 kts, tilted nose up above 10 degrees, at an altitiude of 3000 Ft. The is no use flying with a wingman , and as suggested to change the other aircraft to stock aircraft from the Bazaar liveries. The problem has not been fixed yet after the last update. We wait and and postpone all flights....

Hi DCS-Team, Is it possible to make a change in the F10 Comm options to 'Request Taxi' and get a responce to which Catapult one is cleared to taxi ? There is an option ' request launch' in the Ground Crew menu, but that hardly responces and are not the ones to assign what Catapult to use. When on land, one can request Taxi, and the Tower assigns what runway is in use, and one get's the clearance. Might be nice on the Carrier too Kind Regards, RWC.

Hi DCS- Team, is it possible to have the 'Start up from Parking hot' with wheel chocks ? When loaded the planes thrust goes way high up and immediatly starts rolling whithout having the chance for the pilot toset things up in the cockpit. Kind regards, RWC

Hi friends, Just letting you know the DCS team is aware at the moment and probably working on it. It seems to be a issue with the max weight of the plane when fully loaded. Let's just wait a bit on the fix. RWC. Hi friends, Just letting you know the DCS team is aware at the moment and probably working on it.

Hi Biggy m8, Thanks for the quick responce ! Great that its taken under the eyeglass. Was worried it might have been me. I will leave it at this for now and wait for the solution, which im sure will come soon. Thanks again m8, cheers ! RWC

Hello DCS Crew, I have a serious issue regarding the takeoff of the AI aircraft. For this issue i have used a default qualifying training mission called carrier takefoff lesson. The planes drop in the water right after takeoff ! I have included a Trackfile and both logfiles , one after the repair and one after loading the mission. I have updated to the latest version and tried the repair option to see if the issue was fixed, but it was not. Also it seems some errors in the logfile regarding the catapult steam lua and some issues regarding the weapons and soundfiles. I have no idea if the issue is caused by the Supercarrier or by the vanilla F/A-18. Please have a look Kind regards, RWC. Carrier failed takeoff.trk dcs after repair.log dcs.log

Enjoy Friends !

Hei Developers and friends, A great improvement would be adding the flexing wingtips , which almost don't move in the F/A-18 Hornet in DCS. Another great effect would be the windforces downpressure in flight. This can be seen when pulling higher G's in a turn or climb when looking out over the wings, where you will see a slight downwards sink in combination with the flexing of the wingtip in flight about every few seconds. This will increase the ' real feel ' effect enormously Have a look in this video, where regurarly the camera is looking over the wings while flying and experiance the effects of windforces on the Hornet. Enjoy the video friends and hope these effects WILL be added in the future by the creators ... RWC

Hi friends, Here are some links to some carrier sound files. It might be of use to someone creating a carrier mission or campaign. https://www.avosound.com/en/sound-effects/search/boat-ship/ship-aircraft-carrier/ https://www.pond5.com/sound-effects/item/102986839-aircraft-carrier-ambience-03 Just wanted to share this with you all RWC.
