Hi,
I'm going to look at this

Hey miguel, I am also unable to contact my flight, which should be channel 0, or 124mhz default, and I cannot contact any of the EWR's which if I am doing intercept missions in a mig 21 is pretty much necessary. Hope you can look into it thanks. Russian aircraft and their wacky radio systems.

Hi all.

I wanted to put mig15 into missions, but it seems there is the problems with radios.

I made a preset to radios_freq_compatible, but mission builder, still puts 273.3mhz and so on

Check MP

It's the hot war in the cold for the mig 21.

I used the script mod that came with the campaign is there a newer version I should try?

ha yes, of course
you have to use DCE_Manager (which is in my signature)
and you have tools in there to update the ScriptsMod

I get an error everytime I try and run the updater. Says like events outside parameters.

ok thanks
I think I found the problem.
It's probably a missing "standoff" variable for the escort tasks.

Are there any SA342Minigun in your campaign?
by the way, what is your campaign?

Hi, Miguel,

its  edited by me  INDIA-PAK war campaign with mirage f1, a4 skyhawk and vsn_sem for practising purposes on mirage and a4.

i put sa342 there but took all the data from iran iraq war campaign. nothing was edited in payload etc.

I also find out that this problem occured when mod wanted me for strikes on f1. But i dind edit mirage f1 payload also. it was already in utildbloadouts file. so i just edited

Quote

code_loadout =  {"All"},

Here's main files. i edited some payloads and air ini for modified campaign. maybe it will help you. but mostly its made for practise. Iam learning aircrafts and this beutifull scriptmod.

UTIL_Data.lua oob_air_init.lua UTIL_db_loadouts.lua

Edited October 2, 2022 by UN9249

[Miguel21]

UTIL_db_loadouts.lua

ok
so here is the loadout updated by Cef, it is hot
So, you adapt it to your campaign, or you add a standoff for these 4 items, in your loadout:

mainNM lacks standoff in loadout AV8BNA // Revenge LR AA - AIM9Mx2 - Gun - FTx2

mainNM is missing standoff in loadout AV8BNA // Revenge SR AA - AIM9M*4 - Gun

mainNM misses standoff in loadout SA342Minigun // Minigun IR Deflector

mainNM lacks standoff in loadout SA342L // M621, 8xSNEB68 EAP, IR Deflector

Then, you have to delete (or rather rename) the file /debug/db_loadouts_archive.lua
then restart a mission (skipmission)

I cant remember editing loads for this birds.

I own them, but didnt even start learning. Maybe edited smt like codeloadout. (cause i like harier and the only one payload was able from crisis in PG).

will double check it tommorow.

ha but no, do not worry, the problem does not come from you ^^
It's an oversight on our part, and I think that only the SA342 makes you crash your campaign, from time to time, when it's requested in Escort.

hello,
there will be a change with the Pedro.
You have the old version (it seems to me), in this version, you have to add a pedro in base_mission, in flight, close to the CVN and having as units[n].name:
Pedro_ + NameOfCVN_in_db_airbases
example:
 ["name"] = "Pedro_CVN-74 John C. Stennis",

In the future version.
it will be necessary:
db_airbases: the name of the CVN (as before)
oob_air: the squadron of the helicopter with the task: "SAR" (new)

Do you want to test the new version ? (with all the risks that it brings? ^^)

sure mate. i d love to. i like all new. hope you ll provide me manual for new things. and i ll give you feedback))

as for your instruction, i did it all. but somehow, pedro  crashes the bot if its not supercarrier. I put forrestol in mission editor it crashes. i put roosvelt - everything works))

SAR_Explication_V3.0.txt

 

I sent you the scriptMod which is still being written.
Here is also the SAR and CSAR manual, for you, the Pedro part uses only SAR

The "instructions" are in French, tell me if I should translate it (https://www.deepl.com is very good for that)
The Pedro uses and needs the "SAR" task, and you can forget CSAR, it is not yet perfected.
To use the SAR (and thus Pedro) you need to have the "Element required:" at the bottom of the manual.

Hi, I just found these campaigns and am enjoying the Cypress Incident Hind! I want to ask about CAP because I just lost 2 hinds to an F-5. Does Blue side get AI CAP? I see in the F10 menu there is urgent call for CAP but when I press this it doesn't seem to do anything. Is there a specific channel I need to set my radio for this to work? Would it also be possible to replace the Ataka HE with R60 for escort missions?

Thanks for these campaigns I can't wait to dive into all of them.

Hi,
glad you like it.
Normally, when you call a CAP urgently, the nearest one moves to the position of your call.
No need to set any frequency.
For this to work, there must be a CAP in the air that is not already in combat.
If you are sure it doesn't work, send me the mission and a tacvew plz.

For the loadout, I leave it to Cef, it's his thing ^^

Thank you, I'll pay more attention this time. I saw there were 4 Mirages at Paphos but when I clicked them in f10, they did not have any waypoints that I could see. I will wait to see if they take off.

Try with this  file : UTIL_db_loadouts.lua

Put it in the P:\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Mods\tech\DCE\ScriptsMod.NG folder (make a copy of the old one)

With this file all Mi-24P in escort mission will have two possible loadouts for escort mission on Cyprus campaign

If you want exclusively the R60 loadout use Notepad++ (free) to remove "cyprus", tag in : 

["Escort 2xB8V20+4xATGM_AT9-Heat+4xATGM_AT9-AA"] = {
                attributes = {},
                code_loadout =  {"Cyprus", "HWITC", "Crisis"},

Tell me if it's good for you

We are working (mainly Miguel   ) on new features for DCE ... Reworked and new campaigns should come soon
