Hi guys, Found another vid from Wags and solved the problem. This case can be closed Thanks friends Kind regards, RWC

Hi Bignewy (Wags is it ?) Thank you for the fast responce ! I will deliver a track file by tomorrow , i been trying/and flying all evening already to figure this out and watching Wags vids. Now time flew and its late in Norway

Hi guys, i don't know if i am the only one still having issues with locking a moving target. In v2.6 the moving target got auto locked, and all i had to do was designate it and get the cross in between the vertical lines. But this is not the case anymore and the target indicator just remains in the point i locked it, and the target just drives on. Is this because the Flir pod has been replaced by the 228, or is this a bug? Why has this been changed in 2.7 when now i got used to locking the moving targets this way ? Most of the video's on how to use it are from versions before 2.7....... where it worked ! This is not a complaint, but exchanging and collecting more information and/or updated video somewhere i can learn from. I just need some help to know if the 28 Flir has become obsolete or outdated. Wags already made some great video's on the new 228 Pod, but only on stationary targets input please .... Kind regards, RWC.

Amen to your SARS !

Hi guys, Just a overview of the correct Deck crew colours & Tasking. Hope it will be of use. Kind regards, RWC

Hi guys, Here is a detailed look at the Supercarrier's deck crew and their tasking. Hope this info will be usefull. Kind regards, RWC

Hello DCS-Crew, First of all i would like to say i love this sim, and i know it is hard to provide all the requests. Here are a few things i would love to see added : 1- The new weather presets are awsome, but it would be nice if we could have either more rain/snow presets added and/or have the option to add it to the presets ourselfs. 2- Over the years there came out several mods which could add vehicles and carts to the flightdeck in the ME. THIS would be a great addition to the carriers to add instead of just crew. Moving (tow-)vehicles/carts, ect. 3- If the aim is to create a most realistc experiance while on the carrier deck, i think a basic is the background sounds and calls. If one checks on a video of the real-life Carrier, you hear alot is going on. It came to me while flying the RAVEN One Campaign where he used this. It made me feel more part of the real-life deal. 4- Deck crew to Pilot (hand-) signals from specific deckcrew. Each colour has it's task. It would be nice if each coloured jacked had it's own signals like when you run up to the CAT. But actually would be nice to have them from 'dark n cold state' to 'cleared to taxi...' Remember i have nothing but gratitude and respect for all of you and we love ya..... all of us !! Kind regards, RWC

I have the Supercarrier. On all the other CVN carriers there are the launch groups/personel in place on the catapults, except for the Stennis . Why is that and is that only with me or am i doing something wrong ? Input plz Kind regards, RWC

Hi Fortunate, a option might be to control/command the formation you are flying...... the wingman returns to the default formation. Try open formation ... RWC

Hi friends, For those of you who fly older missions/campaigns created before DCS 2.7, where there is the need of the US Navy Equipment mod installed.Just wanted to let you all know that after running several tests, this is the mod causing DCS 2.7 to crash and missions/campaigns to fail. It is not compatable with the SuperCarrier either, since SC uses it's own deck crew. One can fly the older campaigns by adding the US Navy Equipment mod in your saved games/tech folder, and then remove all the deck crew and vehicles ,with the mission editor, and save. After that remove the US Navy Equipment mod from its location again. Kind regards, RWC11

Hello friends, i am pleased to inform that the problem has been solved by not installing any of the old mods in to DCS 2.7 , which have now become obsolete and incompatable. Greetings from RWC11

New Info : So now i have repaired DCS to its basic installment without any mods and only the modules i have bought like the f-18 and the supercarrier. Still on loading the Raven one campaign the plane ends up in the water like before. Same things i noticed on my first run ... the carrier and all what is supposed to be there .... are missing and not visable ! I have no idea if this has to do with the new update since this campain was created on the old DCS. But i think without all the mods and only a clean DCS, the campaign should start up normally as created/planned. Now since this campaign is encrypted and not editable, i can't make any adjustments with the editor, although the carrier and all its surrounding assets ARE visable there in the editor. I hope one of the moderators read this and can help out and tell me why or what's going on here or might have some suggestions. kind regards RWC

I have a track file aswell, but the file is 15Mb, so i cant upload it. I am trying a full clean repair again now and remove all the extra files to get a clean as possible DCS. How can i save my logbook with all my flight hours if i will do this ?

Hi Raised, Yes i did in both repair options.

Hi guys, Just wanted to start the RAVEN ONE Campaign and the mission starts with my plane splashing in the water. When i check in the planner it is settled on the Carrier, but when i start the mission the plane hits the water...... game over there. I have the supercarrier and the latest update 2.7. Can anyone help out ? dcs.log-20210430-184638.zip

For me the earlier posted logbook file by Buzzline worked for me. I could finally end the mission. I hope it will it will for the rest of you too Greatfull for the solution , Thanks alot Buzzline ! Well done !

Hi guys, Proudly reporting that the Buzzline fix worked for me and i could end the mission. Hope it will for you too

New option posted by Buzzline : Here's my maybe-fixed version of the script. Drop it in DCSWorld\MissionEditor\modules . Change is on line 1118. It may be enough to get you all to complete your missions. HTH, Buzz me_logbook.lua Many thanks Buzzline.... will try it (Y)

new update .... issue not adressed or fixed. Why bother to fly when we cant end the mission ?

Same here ... reflew my last campaign mission hoping it was fixed with the new 2.7 ...... but nothing. Same issue. I guess all flights are on .... ice untill further updates. I must say though this is a serious issue and wondering why its still not fixed and added to this new update. It makes the new update kinda obsolete when we cant even enjoy a succesfull flown mission !

Hi guys, seems indeed its a programming issue as i see this problem appear on several posts. Kinda takes out the mood to continue the campaign. I think we have to wait untill the next update although this recent update is so great, i will see if it helps to restore DCS with one of the backups and overwrite the new untill 2.7 is more stable in the next update. One can always update back to 2.7 if this doesnt work. I'll keep you posted .... signing off ...

I will refly this mission and provide the track replay ....
