I think this would be a great idea Brown, Hilos are usually the first ones on the scene ayway :thumbup: Metzger can then get his Night sky chasing if he so desperately wants it. ps.Tolovay is the last one you want to meet up there, so be kind. Personally I think air to air operations are way more fun with some kind of sunlight. The overcast addition on Ship Ahoj was a great touch Alpenwolf, viz down to 6km’s would also be a nice addition, just like you did on the Abu Dhabi mission. Cant remember the name of the other mission you had it on, but the bullseye was situated above the cloud base where you could only see the mountain tops. [DEVILS] NELLUS

Maybe I found myself in DCS matrix.. flew first around the Red Farp, then of to the main Red Airbase and landed there. Did some wheelies on the apron in the Viggen and left the Stimulator. Yes, the units appeared when base capturing.

Just a heads up, there are no SAM’s/AAA on the Prince of Persia mission. Units appear after a base has been taken over. [DEVILS] NELLUS

Alpenwolf, I have now got feedback from a few sources. The Refueling function works, and does not need a M1025 HMMWV to function. So dropping a M978 HEMTT on it’s own does the job. The Arming function has not been modified on the latest updates and will therefore not work. Hopefully ED’s will sort this issue out shortly.

Please, fix the bug. We need to be able to re-arm...

The Viggen Road Base Multiplayer re-fueling works well, but the re-arming function seems to be bugged. Has anyone heard news about a fix? Trying to get this right before Alpenwolf wastes any time on it. [DEVILS] NELLUS

Great update Alpenwolf! I agree that Beta is the way to go, we just have to be patient after an update that’s all. Things will get back to normal anytime soon.

Prince of Persia was almost on full attendance capacity tonight, ton of action, so the fps was definitely effected due to that.

The Viggen was made for this, with reverse thrust and extremely though breaks. This road base method will most likely set the aviators back as an air force due to hardship while landing, but it sure is fun!

The location would be vocally announced on SRS, which would encourage com’s. The Road base location would variate every time, on the Hilo pilots discretion.

Correct, the vehicles have to be within an 100m radius of each other. The pilot brings then up his kneeboard and requests the desired load out and fuel amount. There will be a countdown in percentages on the kneeboard, followed by a notification announcing when ready.

Many Viggen flyers enjoyed what you did on the Catch me if you can mission. It would be a great fun factor boost for the Viggen community if the traditional Swedish road base system had to get implemented, as they historically were used in wartime. I was personally stationed on one in my Air Force Ranger unit, and it was amazing to see how hidden the whole BAS90 system was. The kneeboard rearming and refueling function works like a charm, but what is needed is for the Huey to be able to fly out 3 vehicles. • HUMMER M1025 • AMMO TRUCK M818 • HEMTT TANKER M978 It will take a bit of workload and time from the Hilo side, but could be a fun addition to the missions. I tried it and managed to land 2 times out of 3.. bit hard, but always fun with a challenge. NELLUS

Good point Brown, I have already noticed an increase in combined attacks on both sides. This is great for the future of the Cold War server.. just wish there were more Huey’s flying around on the Blue side. Not sure why this is lacking.

The Prince of Persia has a little bug at the end when the Blue takes home the victory. We got the 15min remaining message, and when the time was up a message came up saying that the mission will be extended with 2h. A few minutes after that a message came up saying that both Blue and Red won while 6 bases were in blue control and shortly there after the server rotated. [DEVILS] NELLUS

Yea, the platform is pretty limiting in that aspect, so I get you. Great move with the Sukhumi mission instead of Mountains Cry.

Spontaneous rotation would upset anyone, but a set time rotation will be fruitful for both sides.

Is there perhaps a way to start a new mission on a set time everyday? This could be a time where most players start popping in to the server, which usually happens around 16-18 UTC on a daily basis? The mission before this time would automatically end and a new mission would start, giving both sides a certain “gather the troops” hour. The early daily missions usually have 1 - 4 players flying, which is great for training purposes, but can give an unfair head start to either side that can easily sabotage the remaining hours for the other side without them having any units to protect their strategic points.

I just had a look on the Mi8 and Huey. To be able to activate a Kub system you need: • Kub Launcher • Kub Radar To be able to activate a Hawk system you need: • Hawk Launcher • Hawk Search Radar • Hawk Track Radar • Hawk PCP So the double amount of flights are needed for similar system. Is there anyway this can be equalized?

I remember that moment, this was one of our first anti ship strike flights and we were discussing the radar settings, and awacs didn't announce your arrival.

Hehe yea, I knew that I was going to die. Fully loaded with air to ground on my wings, 100% fuel, so pretty much a sitting duck. We were all flying in formation at a stage :megalol:

Just a newbie Hilo question: How many crates do one have to take to build a functioning SA6 site and Hawk site? And which of the crates are essential? Alpenwolf, the last missions have been a fresh start to the Cold War server. I’m even taking to the skies in a Hilo, which says allot. [DEVILS] NELLUS

Awacs should be scrapped altogether. The EWR solution on the new and exciting missions that Alpenwolf has created have become allot more realistic and dynamic. The com’s have increased on SRS and I can speak for all that this has brought the Fighter wing and Strikers/Hilos bit closer. A Hilo had to almost beg for CAP before to even get a response.. that has definitely changed. [DEVILS] NELLUS

One of those Viggen pilots here. Never ones did we ditch our planes to get to the airbase faster. There were Mig’s out there hunting us down knowing that we were heavy and definitely not in dogfighting configuration. We also had SAM’s striking us from the ship/s defending the transports. Usually only one out of 3 made it back. Check your facts next time before stating assumptions.

Prata på Ryska? Ja, då kan jag skriva på svenska! (Swedish) I think it will be amazing if we all spoke in our own language.. wonder how it all would end?! Let’s stick to one Global language shall we?

Fab work yesterday on the Search & Destroy mission. Fever guys did some serious CAP work for us strikers and hilo’s. Big thumbs up to the Blue for the win at around 00.00 UTC
