Escort the Vipers mission

[scotth6]

Hi,

 

I did a search but couldn't find any other threads or reports on this. When using the Escort the Vipers mission in DCS World V1.5 my aircraft does not appear at all. For that matter there are no Mirage 2000Cs to be seen anywhere. When the mission starts it is on the Mission planner screen and I can see all the aircraft on the map, but no Mirage 2000Cs, so no me either. I can cycle through the views to see every other aircraft that is supposed to be there, but no Mirage 2000Cs to be seen. Obviously as a result pressing F1 does nothing.

 

Cheers,

OK I seem to have found the trick now. I don't know if you have to, but when I flicked through the airport views watching the other flights taking off, I ended up at Sochi, and after the F-16s took off the view then switched to me sitting in my cockpit. I watched the aircraft for ages previously and it didn't switch to my cockpit view, so it seems you do need to be looking at Sochi for it to work.

 

Either way this was another mission that is CTD half way through, and I will assume it has to do with the radar and/or jamming issue.

Thanks bro. Good to know. I was having a good time watching the other aircraft anyway. :thumbup:
