jozeff Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 Hello all, Want to try the default UN huey campaign in 2.5 but when I try this there is no possibility to choose A specific chapter of the campaign. It seems like I can start the campaign but only from the beginning. It says: mission inactive. In version 1.5.8 I could choose each seperate UN campaign part 1 - 10( I believe there are 10.....) I bought the Argo campaign but wanted to try the UN missions first because they are some what easier. Any thoughts? Thanks!! Jozeff
Dun_Aenghus Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 I can't say much for the huey campaign but the default campaign for the Mi8 seems to be broken. As far as I know, the DLC campaigns (and Mirage one) were updated for 2.5 but not sure about the rest. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

If you want to fly individual missions open them with the mission editor, it will allow you to navigate to the campaign DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\Uh-1H\Missions\Campaigns hope that helps Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

ebabil Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 it is definetly not working properly. i tried to play some of them until mission 9 * in some missions you need to maintain formation with the leader who rides huey at 100 kts. it is very hard to get this speed with egt limits. * leader suddenly comes to hover position or gets very slow time to time. this is very absurd, and you have to overshoot the leader and then he suddenly accelerates and you can't get 100 knot at that fast, so you may face mission failure if you loose formation * In a mission, you need to get a wounded soldier and he dies, it doesn't matter how fast you were * In a mission, you need to land next to troops and they are in the forest, but trees kill your helicopter. besides, there are enemy soldiers shooting at you and don't let you land other places. they can't be killed by guns. so i gave up playing this campaign. ps: i played this when it was first released many years ago and i had finished all of them.

smallberries Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 I have been playing it and I have been having success, I think I'm around the 11th or 12th mission. It is tricky with the formation flying as the lead AI is a bit absurd, abrupt elevation and direction changes, but I don't think any of that is specific to 2.5, and the EGT limits can also make it challenging, but I haven't failed a mission yet because of it. But I had started it before and jumped back in around the 7-8th mission, so can't speak for the early ones.
Jedra Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 After buying the Huey in the latest sale, I am finding the missions in the UN Pilot campaign extremely frustrating. I have had to edit a mission to make the AI Hinds fly less erratically (and more like they seemed to fly in early videos when the module was first released). The “Race Against Time’ mission is seemingly impossible as either the injured pilot dies or my engine blows up trying to fly as fast as I need to. Even if it is possible, the margin of error is too small. I also think that the missions are individually too long, but this is a matter of taste. I wonder whether the developers of the module regularly re-test the built in campaign as DCS is updated? It makes me reticent to buy the DLC campaigns just in case they are also ‘broken’ as these can’t be edited to fix bugs. Processor : Intel Core i7 7800X (3.8 - 4.2 GHz) . Motherboard : ASUS TUF X299 .

JoeyJoJoJunior Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 I managed to play through it recently, but it was very buggy at times. The AI flies too low, so he's constantly going up and down, and changing speed all the time. I think it did improve my flying skills trying to keep up with him, lol. I also had one mission where two of my wingmen died. At one point, the flight leader told us to meet up somewhere and orbit until we're all in formation. So I F2 to see where the wingmen are, and they've respawned at home base and are heading back to us. An absurd amount of time later, they join us and we move on. The only mission I had to skip was one where you have to maintain a hover over some trees while the best marksman in the universe is one-shotting your engine with an automatic rifle from a few miles away. After three tries of that, I gave up. There are a handful of really great moments in the campaign, and the writing and characters are pretty decent, so it was worth playing. i7 6700k @ 4.6, Gigabyte Z170X-UD3, 32GB DDR4 2666, GTX 1070, Rift S | MS Sidewinder FFB2 w/ TM F-22 Pro Grip, TM TWCS Throttle, VKB T-Rudder Mk.

JoeyJoJoJunior Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 The “Race Against Time’ mission is seemingly impossible as either the injured pilot dies or my engine blows up trying to fly as fast as I need to. I don't remember having an issue with this when I played it recently. You should be able to travel at about 120-130 knots while keeping EGT in the green to keep your engine safe. I dunno if you're new to helis, but a mistake I made early on was using too much collective to gain speed. Make sure you pitch your cyclic way forward and trim it there to get the max speed you can at a given collective setting. Too much collective = high EGT. i7 6700k @ 4.6, Gigabyte Z170X-UD3, 32GB DDR4 2666, GTX 1070, Rift S | MS Sidewinder FFB2 w/ TM F-22 Pro Grip, TM TWCS Throttle, VKB T-Rudder Mk. IV
Maddog Muttley Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 Hi All I've completed all the campaigns starting with un-pilot (easy), Argo (hard) and now just started worlds apart- spring2025 campaign (frustrating ), explain soon. Yes in many of the UN missions you will find some of the AI aircraft fly erratically just be ready to hover above them. In race for time no probs there either flue at 100knts made it in time. Mission 9 think it was wiskey tango, was the hardest, trim for hover is the key, took some learning. In Argo I found the sling loads hard as there is no training for them. Ended making a simple pickup and drop mission in editor for practice. There are also many overloaded scenarios some overcome by govenor switch, others by sliding takeoff. Really Enjoyed argo. Now Worlds apart- spring2025 campaign seems to have a glich, mission 1 told to start-up and idle while waiting for wolf 1, 15min waiting and still waiting. Wolf 1 ???? never comes. Good luck with your campaigns, enjoy. PS. Looking for wingman.

Maddog Muttley Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 Update Worlds apart- spring2025 campaign no glich. Radios needs to be manually set, thought F10 in radio options did it.

cercata Posted October 17, 2019 Posted October 17, 2019 * leader suddenly comes to hover position or gets very slow time to time. this is very absurd, This is happening to me on Mission 3, they were supposed to be fast, but less than 200kph, but they are between 30 and 60 knots, really boring the mission like that :( Anyone knows if the Argo campaign works well ?
Eisprinzessin Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 Dont know where else to ask, so here: How is the actal state of the campaign? Is it playable?

I'm about to give up the number of bugs is overwhelming to be fixed by a player. **managed to fix it** Edited June 28, 2021 by gabrielete
