Scotch75 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Hey guys, I installed the "Falcon over PG" campaign then made sure Scripts MOD NG was updated to the latest release (20.60.232) through DCE manager. The following errors show during creation of the first mission. So, should I re-install the Campaign with "Overwrite the NG folder (if present)" checked? To me that sounds like it will copy the old NG files back in rather than use the latest release. Many thanks.

solidGad Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 (edited) anyone have any issues with the Afghan Bear Trap Huey campaign? I get a warning when I unzip it that there is 'extra data' and when I run it there is errors, but it does give you a mission, however in DCS under the campaign screen, the actual campaign isn't there. Thanks for any info. I have many other DCE campaigns installed that work so it seems to just be this one. edit: ah. i see it's listed under older campaigns. that could be the issue then.

ameriveaux Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Hi Miguel and PB0_CEF, Certainly hoping you both are well and in good spirits. I figured I give another state-of-play report to everyone to appreciate how nice the mod continues to be and to provide feedback and value for everyone who follows so that the project itself can further improve and grow. The latest script mod update for the F-16C in the PG campaign in regards to bombing during strikes ( especially against Bandar E Jask Airbase ) has been satisfying and an experience changer for sure. Normally , which I will speak about later, most AI performed (s) very poorly against strike missions , which blunts campaign progress ( which Ill also speak of later ) In all various campaigns and planes, AI for CAP, Intercept and Escort are great. With the new BVR update I feel as the Air side of DCE is fine. The ATO is sufficient , though I feel there should be more planes and squadrons to provide a much more busy and frantic campaign. Several campaigns such as the F16 , M2000 and Tomcats I feel could have much more air activity than the others for some reason. Though I also understand since the maps are sort of small, if no more units are added, though I feel its worth a shot. I think a very large place that can grow is many more options for strike missions. Air missions due to their fluidity and range I don't feel need more change, such as different Sweep or Cap areas ( there should be an increase in sweep missions ) For example, most campaigns in start with striking an EWR or SA site of some sort. If your AI or escorting SEAD flights ( sead flights perform very poorly usually, maybe they can be updated like the F16C strike script mod logic? ) , to say, if the strike or SEAD mission fails for either poor AI or player, the progress of campaign seems to stop - you will get maybe 1 other strike mission offering , then the offering returns to the EWR or SAM site, and that can go on for 10 missions. Why not give 5-6 consistent target options like the SU-25 Hot War in the Cold ( this campaign gives 5 different units normally ) So for example, give 2 bridges, 2 armored units , 1 ship and maybe the occasional Air Base. It can provide the player chances to progress the campaign and give other flights the chance to destroy the SAM or EWR site (maybe an AI strike flight should be made every turn until it's gone? ) Question ? : If the player chooses to bomb other strategic targets besides the assigned mission target, can you still "progress" in the campaign? Observation : Strike mission targets fail to register as destroyed or seem to fail to load in game world? For example the Hangars at Bandar E Jask often don't register as destroyed or damaged or even as structures in the game world? Often player can get caught in needing to Marshal Stack at times at the boat. I think more Naval craft should be added but for a more involved maritime experience. As player, when AI planes are landing, you *can* Marshall stack while you wait for the AI planes to land then the ATO AI will inform you "Charlie" then you can start your initial . FYI Though the normal base ATO AI is practically non-existent, you can also stack and make a recovery on land bases as well with AI . High Marks - The script for dynamic time and weather is simply amazing ! This is where DCS Liberation Campaign engine preforms poorly - the time is the same, and the weather is not dynamic at all. Suggestion- Optional Far away base spawn or alternate base spawn locations for varied experience in the same campaign Ala Falcon 4 I really appreciate it again. This system is excellent and feels much like Falcon 3.0 / Hornet 3.0 / Mig-29. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destroying any target in the list of targets in the briefing is possible and will count in the loss track to make progress in the goal of losses to reach to win the campaign... There can be some problems however : The use of Prunescript (to avoid too heavy missions) may remove some targets from the mission if too far away from primary targets so it will be impossible to find and destroy them. If targets are native map objects, Prunescript could remove defenses so it will not be a really fair mission 16 hours ago, ameriveaux said: Observation : Strike mission targets fail to register as destroyed or seem to fail to load in game world? For example the Hangars at Bandar E Jask often don't register as destroyed or damaged or even as structures in the game world? It seems that since some ED updates that some native map buidlings are really difficult to destroy ! To be registrered detroyed by DCE it needs to be in ruins. Burning is not sufficient because after burning buildings are often not destroyed on the mission map. So it needs often really big bombs to be sure to destroy them ...

ameriveaux Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 I understand and thanks for the spot of info about the large building. Makes sense ! Is there any chance at all to remove the s300 / SA11/SA 10 units ? They eliminate entire strike packages even with SEAD , and outside of an incredible 200AGL bombing run , with AI support just doesn't seem possible. For example, I had a strike with 4 F-14 Escorts, 4 F/A-18C SEAD and 4 F-14 Strike to hit a bridge, and just outside of the engagement range, the S300 just downed every aircraft to make it close in the area, 5 planes plus me. This happens consistently, and simply stops my campaign. Positive shout out - The over Caucasus series is doing a good job as of the scrip mod .234 giving more varied strike targets. I think without such advanced SAM sites , the campaign can be completed by a Solo player. I can attach track file if needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ameriveaux Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Update : Removing S300 sites (x2) from Georgia campaigns does wonders. We actually have strike packages taking out targets with higher frequency , and a much more interesting air campaign due to BLUE side not being blown out of the sky north of Senaki Kolkhi- The weather system is interacting well with the new secondary shadow effects and drastically changes the mood and difficulty especially early mornings with haze and slight fog. I had several TU aircraft utilize some sort of new maneuvers due to possibly the new AI updates that had them breaking off and retreating 4000AGL with tomcats in pursuit, interception indeed.

snake_61 Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 (edited) Hi, I'm having issues with "Hornet over PG" campaign. I think it's since last update (2.7.14.24228) - "Falcon over PG" works fine. The mission generator cannot create missions, or it takes several attempts and then I only get CAP missions. Even the ScriptsMod_234 could not solve my problem. Tried even a new save of "Hornet over PG_first.miz" and"Hornet over PG_ongoing.miz"...no help. Is that ment by "re-register" ? As to be seen on the screenshot...
