This is all that happens when I run first mission generator.

These are point to my main DCS fold and DCS saved game folder exactly copied from the file path.

 

REM Core or Main DCS ou DCS.beta path, always end the line with \
set "pathDCS=C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\"

 

REM DCS or DCS.beta saved game path, always end the line with \
set "pathSavedGames=C:\Users\Herman\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\"

 

REM DCE ScriptMod version not any / or \ and no space before and after =
set "versionPackageICM=20.43.60"

Thank you. I installed the first campaign for the f-16. Worked perfectly. I didn't test it extensively just started the campaign and exited. The error message did not pop up. A text file with a summary of the mission did pop up as it is supposed to. I then installed the F-14 Tom Cat and the  F-18 Hornet But for those 2 campaigns the error message popped up and the summary text file did not. I checked the path.bat for all three they looked identical. I have no idea why it is working for one and not the other 2. I have attached the log file and the path bat for all 3 campaigns. The first one is the f-16 which is working. The next one is the f-14 and the f-18 which are not working..

dcs.log 50.93 kB · 1 download path.bat 376 B · 1 download path.bat 376 B · 1 download path.bat 376 B · 1 download

 

I deleted the DCE and just installed the F-16. If you look at the log for when I play the falcon (attached) all paths point to C. But in the Hornet and Tom Cat they point to F. I think this maybe a bug in the campaign. I don't think it is something at my end. It doesn't make sense that the falcon would work but the other 2 don't. I will try installing another DCE campaign not the crisis one see if that works.

dcs.log

 

Installed hornet over Persian gulf. The error message came up. But when I checked the log all paths pointed to c . The error message was "ERROR   VFS: VFS_open_write: CreateFile(C:\Users\Orest PC\C:\Users\Orest PC\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Mods\tech\DCE\Missions\Campaigns\Hornet over PG - SuperCarrier\MissionEventsLog.lua): The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect." I looked everywhere could not find missioneventslog.lua. No idea what is going on.

Yes I did. Love the installer simple easy to use. Only if we can get the campaigns to run. The crisis campaign for the f-16 works, Only the F-14 and F18 doesn't work.

Your error has evolved
before: your savedGame path was bad
then: you hadn't generated the first mission
Now, it's very interesting but also very worrying, a part of the script that always worked, bug with you.
Maybe because of the encoding, maybe because of the installer. I don't know.

But now, I'll need your log (with the F18 Bug).
From the firstmission.miz to F18
From path.bat (F18)
And the Active folder (always F18)

Yes, it's a lot and I'm sorry

this is from TF-71-Hornet - SuperCarrier campaign. Hopefully I have given you everything you need. If there is something else please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you for all your help. Hope we can find the problem as I really like these campaigns.

No, it depends on the version
Now the script accepts the 2 ways to write the path saved games

it's not easy to follow you

you change the campaign and thus the script version...

Well, here, with TF71 , the bug is that you gave "DCS open.beta" in path.bat, but "DCS" in the mission.

It must recreate the first mission with FirstMission.bat each time you change something in path.bat and/or after a new campaign installation (TF71 hornet is a new campaign, even if you have installed TF71 Tomcat, so you have to restart FirstMission.bat).

I am trying to see which campaigns work. The crisis ones still point f. I will resend those. Everytime I install I always do the first mission bat. Even after every campaign I click on first mission bat. I will uninstall everything and try again. Once I do if the problem persists I will send you the  logs and batch files.

Your problem is different
it's just the DOS window that doesn't give any error message, and I don't know why.

Concerning DCE_Installer, I confirm that it does not work yet at the end of the mission ^^^

Sorry

Sorry for the confusion I should have stuck with one campaign. We should try and fix one problem before solving the next. Anyways I uninstalled everything then with the installer I reinstalled crisis over the Persian  gulf for the Hornet.  As soon as the installation was complete I ran firstmission.bat.  Then I ran the campaign. Still got the error and the log error states it is still looking in f. Now I am not sure what you mean that the installer does not work at the end of a mission. It looks like the paths are all correct in the path.bat. The falcon campaign for crisis works perfectly. I am baffled. Is anyone else having these problems or am I the only one.

oops, sorry, the message from above was for someone else, sorry...

I found my error on DCE_Installer

I'll send you a patch later, until then, no need to test, it won't work ^^

On the other hand, it's strange that FirsMission.bat doesn't copy the address in the first mission.

Or you are already playing the second mission (DCS succeeded in validating the first mission).
To be sure to play the first mission, you have to click on "restart" the campaign, or something like that. (in DCS game)

If not, make a screenshot of Firmission.bat once the mission is created, it should look like this:

The first mission bat does display the correct path. This is very strange.

I am making progress I can final load mission but what does this mean image.png

This means that DCE cannot retrieve the information of the played mission.

To do this, it asks you to disable DCS's write protection by modifying the file
DCS World\Scripts\MissionScripting.lua
or
DCS Open Beta\Scripts\MissionScripting.lua

and to modify with Notepad++ while being in ANSI or UTF-8 (and especially not UTF-8 BOM)
To add 2 lines in front of the lines
--sanitizeModule('os')
--sanitizeModule('io')

As explained in the PDF that follows the campaign 😏

However, since each time DCS updates these lines return to their original state, I strongly suggest you use the OvGME utility that will do this with a simple click.

Indeed, the script 20.38.01 does not take into account the path before "Saved Games".

I will try to make an automatic correction with DCE_Installer

Thank you ZeroReady

Hi Cef there seems to be a problem with the F-14 before the start of a mission. The tomcats damage each other on the deck before you even get into the cockpit. you have to restart the mission a couple of times to get so that they do not damage each other.

Hi
I had seen this problem before I switched PCs.
I think the causes are:
- PC configuration too right, at the beginning of the mission, the loading of DCS makes buggy the position of the wings of the F14 which "must" pass through the adjacent planes.
- wind or too fast CVN speed
- the CVN is running: it's worse

To set this up, without "changing PCs", try it out:
- to display the F10 view at mission launch
- lower the CVN speed in conf_mod
- do not ask the CVN to turn
- play Crisis Light missions
- restart the mission several times as you have already done, as it is already in memory, it bugs less when loading.

Thanks for your reply Miguel. Not sure I know what I am supposed to do. Where is the conf_mod located?
