Crazy Horse Campaign

[Sandman1330]

Hey Guys,

 

I've been dying to try this campaign for a long time, but I keep having the worst luck with it. I guess there is now a fix for the first mission pickup bug? Problem is, now when I try to play it, I get a series of LUA errors popping up. Seems like every time there's a trigger, I get an error... Anyone else having this issue? Is it a compatibility with DCSW 1.5 issue?

 

Thanks!

absolutely.. just open the mission in editor, clean the mission by setting trigzone over kobulittle and unit inside zone (you), flag on (1). in mission conditions, set offline blue, condition flag is true (1). delete the darn chopper and the two guys in it, the red smoke and all associated triggers. win

I'll give that a try, thx. Though I'm not fully conversant with the editor, so I'll have to figure out what half that means! :)

 

Edit: I see, this is to fix the original problem with the pickup. I've downloaded the fixed file from the library, so I don't think this should be an issue anymore. The problem I now have is that, right from the start of the mission on the carrier, I get repeated pop up Lua script errors. It seems like every time there is a trigger that leads to a message or dialogue or anything else, I get this pop up error. Am I the only one getting the error (implying a problem with my setup)?

no you're not alone. Open triggered actions and look in triggers for mission start. check middle row for conditions and finally if its time more anything and it loads a script, erase the entire trigger

Apart from any script code compatabilty problems, the reason for the script errors are:

 

 

• Current bug in DCS 1.5x is that in the ME the init field doesn't work, that is suppost to load the MIST script engine, the other scripts are calling MIST functions and it isn't loaded so it errors, hit the reset button to clear the init fields.
  
• The MIST engine has to be upgraded to version 4.0.55 of later for 1.5x also.
  
• Work around is to make a new trigger in Mission: Load Mist > Time More 1 > do_script = Mist.4.0.55.lua.
  
• Mission will now run without most script errors, at least my quick test showed the startup messages and take off messages.
  
• Tested further, other issue is that enfield 1-4 (Enfield 2 Flight) is suppose to have engine trouble and crash land, and then you pick them up, this doesn't happen as Enfield 1-4 crashes into another chopper on take off and join up from the ships.
  
• Corrected the advanced waypoint command for Enfield 1-4 to join up and follow at a safer distance 150m not 100m.
  
• I suspect the other custom scripts will have other issues due to functional changes in MIST itself.
  
• Flew mission and picked up crashed pilots and took them to Kubletti. All seem to work as expected.

I've been trying to modify the missions myself (weapons training also doesn't work) but I run into an issue. Where is this mist LUA file located? I want to create the trigger but can't find the mist file...

[Cibit]

MIST file is inside mission, open it with 7zip

Thanks! The mission starts 8)

 

I can sort of make the mission work now, but all triggers that rely on getting/setting variables (like if you passed the ingress areas) dont work anymore, with no error message . I can remove those conditions and this particular mission will work fine I think. Ill upload the mission when ive adjusted it.

Thx!

Well, I've got it marginally working. I've manually loaded the newest MIST for each mission, and I get no more LUA errors. The missions mostly progress as they should, with the proper triggers. The only problem is, I absolutely cannot get a mission completed - on any of them. I'm still having great fun flying them, but after I land and shut down for each mission, I must manually edit the logbook to be able to progress to the next mission. Not a huge deal, but it can be a bit annoying. Anything I may be able to do to rectify this?
