BFT 11&12 FE flying too slow

[TonyG]

I've gone through both missions 11 and 12, and both of them have the FE flying along at 138 knots. While it's possible to pass 11 like this ( just horribly frustrating) it's impossible to pass 12 because you can't hit any of the waypoints on time.

 

This starts from the initial meet up at way point 3(?) just inside the MOA, the FE just parks it at 138, and causes you to fly with flaps and boards out.

 

I'm itching to get this passed and move onto the next campaign, other than this bug, it's been fantastic, a really great way to learn the A-10.

I'm in the process of going through this campaign again, I will check this evening to see if I have the issue. In the mean time do you have the latest version of DCS installed?

[Sabre-TLA]

Yes it certainly wasn't designed that way. Do a DCS Repair if you still have issues.

 

You can compare your experience to these videos. It should still play similar:

Dang it, I just updated too -- and just flew 138 knots in #11 Practice the entire time, and FE asks you go to 8000 at one point, but he never goes, and then down to 6000 (the whole time we're at like 5700-5800. I thought something fishing was happening, so I tried to checked my score, and it froze up my PC --

added I experienced this in the #11 Practice mission

I'll try doing a repair -- though this was literally the first time I've flown since I updated this morning. I have no mods, and never have (with this latest PC anyway).

Amazing, the repair worked. I wonder if it has anything to do with me editing/fixing older missions from an old KA-50 campaign. Can't imagine what "Repair" does, besides restore some default files (of which of all mine were the default files -- as I said, no mods.) . Oh well -- what's the saying ... "Don't look a gift Warthog in the mouth?"

Glad you got it sorted! :thumbup:

This is related with the IA bug not keeping the speed adjusted in the mission editor.

[TonyG]

Simply repairing didn't work. I moved the file to another folder and then when I ran the repair, it replaced it. Works now!

 

I'm now BFT qualified :) nice little touch with all the infantry running out, but I kinda expected the music to start playing, got used to hearing it after a pass!

[BBQ]

I know, I've gotten used to the music as well -- I hate to break it to ya, but no music in AAT either :(

 

I'm sure some complained about the music -- and MF had to make a decision one way or another -- can't please everyone all of the time lol

[TonyG]

Yeah, I made it through the 1st AAR mission and no music :(
