Already informed, working on it, not the only mission impacted, update 1.5.5 has brought troubles.

[Rangi]

Mission 6 the Chinook won't land, I assume it's part of the same bug?

[viperdogsnake]

Seen same on Mission 1 Apache lands on me and hacks me to peices.

[Falcaw]

Same for me, Any idea when this will be fixed? I would love to play the campaign. Bit of a shame we can't progress more than 2 minutes into it.

[the_soupdragon]

Yep still have this issue on Mission 1 after the latest update. Can we get this fixed please. Indeed its a Bit of a pointless campaign disapointment if you can only fly the first mission for 2 minutes befoer an Apache lands right on top of you. I would think Polychop would like to get this fixed ASAP (at least I hope so).

speeling???

In order to complete the first mission, all you have to do is open the campaign mission in the mission editor and set your Gazelle to start in the air and save it.

 

Note: You might need to launch DCS in administrator mode to be able to write to files located in your \Program Files\ directory, which can be done by right clicking the shortcut icon and clicking "run as administrator."

Tried that. It didn't work Gazelle still starts on the ground and gets squashed by that fat apache. I must be doing something wrong. I set the gazelles first waypoint as a flyover point give it some speed and altitude save the mission and ..........it's still exactly the same.

I'll just have to wait for teh next update i guess.

I just moved the landing point of the AH-64 away from the FARP. Start up worked wonders, completely Apache-less ;)

[the_soupdragon]

I tried that too. but the Apache still lands on top of me. wierd.

maybe someone could post a fixed mission 1 up so I can at least get off the pad :)

Same here. Just bought Gazelle and first mission sucks :(

[the_soupdragon]

Hopefully there will be a fix for the campaign today. Thats if there is a patch for the OB.

But then again I will probably be too busy flying the Spitfire, at least for a short time anyway :)

no fixed with the today update ;(

[Pat01]

Hi Gents,

We are testing the corrected campaign at the moment, the fix will be available in a next update.

Thanks for your patience.

[the_soupdragon]

Really!!

So we have to wait maybe 3 or 4 weeks to get this campaign fixed? (as the Beta has just been updated 2.0 will be next maybe sometime over the Xmas holidays then it's the Betas turn again) WOW.

 

I understand to a certain degree, but how long has this thing been broken? quit a while I believe.

I am a bit disapointed that a fix didn't make it into this weeks update. It's just as well I have teh Spitfire to take the pain away :)

Gazelle Campaign mission no 1 - edited please

 

Please calm down. You can fix this mision in the editor.

 

I tried to put Apache landig point next to me and it worked. As soon as I tookoff Apache gave some instructions to cover Slugy then we headed to the extraction point. After that Apache geave the order to follow him, so i did it. Then he decided to land on wpt 14 and I did the same but mission wasn't over ?! I flu all the way to wpt 0 and landed my gazzele and then nothing happend though :(

 

As I said, I was taking instruction from Apache but I missed all the dialogs with quick sitrep and all that "story" stuff and F10 sepcial menu was not showing up. Very wierd after just moving Apache ladning point :|

 

Could anyone send me properly edited Gazelle Campaign mission no 1 please :)

I did it a couple of months ago and didnt have any issues. Probably not what you want to hear, and not much help, but it might be worth just doing it again...

Dude this is the first mission. I'm doing it again and again :)

 

Maybe today's patch will fix that problem...

Today's patch didn't help at all. Now Apache and Chinook don't want to takeoff :(

[the_soupdragon]

Same here. I take off then get the radio call saying they will lift once troops embark but they never get airborne.
