Hi Reflected, I tried the bailout in an instant mission and still no success either with the keyboard or my bindings. I have the track file included. cant bail out .trk

I'll try that today and keep the trk file. Thanks for the quick response.

Hey Reflected, I got distracted on some other campaigns....I just tried to complete the last mission again and still can't get to bail out. I used the keyboard LCntrl +E three times and nothing, I also mapped it to a button on my hotas and tried that three times and still nothing. At least this time I kept the track file. I did open the canopy first...not sure if that is causing the problem? Don't pay any attention to how long it took me before I realized I had my flaps and landing gear down....couldn't figure out why I wasn't catching up to flight!! Thoughts?......sure hope you are coming out with a Corsair campaign soon!!! Just bought the Mosquito and the Victory campaign and having a great time flying that bird....didn't think originally that I would like it but I'm really enjoying it....need a little more training before I try the night missions!

Hi I am going to assist with the CAS mission, I entered the coordinates and switched the VHF radio (2) to channel 12 for blue 2, but I get no response...tried multiple times. I didn't record a track file...but I'll try it again and keep the trk file if I still have a problem. Has anyone experienced the same problem? Love the campaign by the way!!

Your right....I had the wrong camp...was flying over my own camp with the green smoke. Hard to fly formation fast and low and stay on top of the messages!! I'll try again...thanks for the reply.

Hi I'm having a different problem. I can find the camp no problem and I think I'm supposed to "show of force" when I find it. I flew over a number of times low and fast but nothing happens. I designated it with the piper and still nothing. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong?? Thoughts?

Just finished the campaign. I really enjoyed it. It's nice to see another campaign on the Marianna's map. I played Paradise Lost and wasn't even aware there were other islands on the map!! Nice, short campaigns with excellent use of the various weapon systems. I only had one problem on mission 11 where the wingmen didn't leave the air strip...the soldiers remained in front of the Vipers and they just remained in their stalls. Not a biggie, I flew the mission myself anyway and still did what I could. Great fun, thanks!

Thanks for the help everyone. I went with a NVME 4TB SSD drive. I can't believe the difference in the quality of the graphics.....its made a huge improvement.....and now after I save a few more toonies (that's Canadian money) I'll be able to buy the Kola map!! Again, thanks for all the help! Love this game!!

Sorry to be a pain. It looks like I don't have quite enough space on the D drive for the terrain folder. If I leave the game engine on the C drive and mklink to the terrain folder on my external E hard drive (which has lots of storage), will that impact performance?

Is that command in the system Command Prompt or is it done somewhere inside DCS?

Yes I tried it yesterday. It definitely loads slower and was a little choppy....of course at the most inopportune time. I have 2 internal drives a C and D. The entire game won't fit on either single drive. Is there any way to say put the game engine on the C drive and the maps on the D drive? I haven't been able to find an option to change where the downloads go? This would help if I could split the game between the 2 internal drives? Thoughts? Oh and thanks for the quick replies...much appreciated.

Hi, my C drive is full and I can't download the new map updates. I have an external E drive and I copied the entire game on the external drive. My concern is what, if any impacts, will there be on the game performance from playing entirely off an external hard drive? Any thoughts? Thanks MLA306

Hey thanks Reflected!!

Hi I replayed the campaign and on mission 11 when you are supposed to bail out, it doesn't seem to work. I used the keyboard Lcntrl, Lshift and C to open the canopy and then Lshift E to bailout but it doesn't work. I then tried just Lshift E and that didn't work either. So I mapped the bailout to one of my hotas buttons but still no luck. Just wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem or knows what I'm doing wrong?

No problem, I got it. I hadn't killed all the vehicles where they were setting up the air defenses. I replayed it today and got it. Thanks.
