Operation GODFINGER updated

[dooom]

yeah so i got around to doing some tweaks on GODFINGER... thought I'd share the .miz

 

Changes:

 

reduced # of insurgents per town

repaired ai gunner effectiveness

added sabre and mustang support out of tblisi

added Radar support script for client ac by AJAX

added a couple of AI migs

fixed general bugs blah blah blah...

 

I still cannot nail down the inconsistencies with the FM beacon performance - sometimes it works great for clients... sometimes not at all for clients. Im out of ideas so I welcome any comments here.

 

have fun.... enjoy!

Cheers: Thumbup:

[Chic]

Sorry I gotta ask this but relatively new to radio usage. Got handle on basics but how do I contact OP for "tasks"?

Thanks.

[dooom]

land at OP charlie by navigating along FM Homing to 44 Mhz. Once you land at the outpost, random insurgents will spawn in the valley towns - Charlie will confirm that enemy activity is confirmed. follow your waypoints on kneeboard and check each village for bad guys - kill them, reinforce town with troops from either home plate or one of the outposts.

 

rinse repeat until all towns clear.

[Chic]

Ahhh. Thought I had to "contact" Charlie first.

Thanks very much for sharing this work.

[Chic]

JEEEEZZ!!!

Getting ripped to shreds just approaching Ajoti. Any tips??

[dooom]

Keep your distance and orbit by facing a door gunner at town ... Fly steady so they can aim. Actually going with 1-2 other helis helps as it de concentrates their fire ... If you are only presenting one target, they will all shoot at you :)

 

Also don't fly too low over the forest in between towns and outposts, there are roaming squads in there with ak47 that will happily shoot at you

[Chic]

Didn't think to use AI.

Enjoyin this. Thanks again.

[dooom]

yeah - i'd like to hear how it plays out with sabre and p51 support hitting the town too. i think they could be cleared pretty quick

 

but yeah - back when i first made the mission, the door AI way more deadlier.

[shagrat]

Set the Gunner AI to 100% that compensates for the frequent target switching they do.

A minimum of 2 Hueys is a good idea to manage the ZSU-23s...

Keep your distance and an eye on the AAA. When they shoot, change speed, course, height better all or at least Two of these. One Huey distracts the AAA Gun another try killing it.

[Dojo]

So I've been dying to fly this mission again, decided to try it this AM. It appears most of the scripting is working in 1.5! The exception is picking up troops. I don't have that option in the F10 menu.

 

Is that just bugged or can it be fixed?

 

Seriously drooling over this mission. Without exception, it's the most replayed mission I've ever done, and I'm primarily an A-10 pilot!

[shagrat]

I'll need to check on current version.

Not at my PC at the moment.

 

Cibit put together an updated, complete reprogrammed CTTS and from that made the CTLD Script, which worked ok in a mission we flew in 2.0 Nevada two weeks ago.

The newer scripts are build around MIST 4.1.x or higher.

So maybe need to update the scripts, only.

[Dojo]

I'll need to check on current version.

 

That would be epic! Thanks in advance for your time.

[dooom]

to be honest I'm a bit scared to dig into this one again.. SOOOO much broke over the years and I had to really fix it up with spit and gum so to speak. Its pretty hacked together.

 

That said, with the Mi-8 update, I'm tempted to revisit this one once again. I'm thinking I'll wait for the Caucuses update though as I understand teh new mesh will likely break ALOT of unit placements.

 

We'll see.... as always, I am seriously not offended if someone wants to take this and run with it to fix it up.

 

im thrilled to see it still enjoyed after all these years.

[msalama]

That said, with the Mi-8 update, I'm tempted to revisit this one once again.

 

Pwetty pleeeze, do make an updated version for the Mi-8 of this! Would be absolutely fabulous to fly this again with biggish iron this time ;)

[Delta99]

Hey doom, is this mission still operational? The last few posts make it sound like probably not. I'm looking for some decent UH-1H missions.

[Robert31178]

+1 behind Delta. I love a good Huey scrap!

[dooom]

Hey Delta... I have actually been thinking about rebuilding it with MOOSE. It was pretty fiddly with the stock ME and MIST back when I first crafted it and then i abandoned it after the thing kept breaking.... over and over and over again.

 

Anyone is welcome to edit this but to be honest, I'll probably rebuild it from bottom up instead of trying to figure out why things may not be working anymore. I did like it though.

[Delta99]

Would love to see it rebuilt.
