WHY PLAY TTI AND HOW IT WORKS:

1. FLY AND ENJOY ALL DCS MODULES WITH PROPER MISSIONS FOR EACH AIRFRAME TYPE. - NO NEED TO SWITCH OR LOAD INTO MISSION FILES TO FLY OTHER AIRCRAFT OR FOCUS ON ANOTHER COMBAT SCENARIO.
    
2. CUSTOMIZABLE IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE FOR YOUR OWN ENJOYMENT - Fly it your way, adjust settings for difficulty, immersion or for fun extreme scenarios! Change various settings that affect your living and breathing air combat arena of operations.
    
3. CHOOSE BETWEEN SEVERAL ERAS OF WAR TO EXPERIENCE AERIAL COMBAT THROUGH PAST AND PRESENT
    
4. CHOOSE ANY MISSION TYPE TO BE GENERATED
    
   - This mission can generate a WIDE VARIETY of mission scenarios.
    
   - Ground missions are generated in a random location on the map, with a random pool of units, and placed in different positions within the mission zone. Each ground mission generation will be completely different every time one is generated.
    
   - There are many potential areas for ground missions that utilize the majority of the map, you'll be able to explore many areas of the map for a wide variety of terrain challenges and experiences.
    
   - Air missions will generate a random flight of enemy bandits. The airframe, of the bandits will be random. Their initial spawn point will be random. Their altitude, waypoints and waypoint altitude will be randomized every time as well. A simple yet very comprehensive dynamic A2A mission generator makes for an amazing and unpredictable A2A experience! Choose from a variety of A2A difficulties as well.
    
5. You can switch (pause, choose slot) to change aircraft at ANY TIME without having to quit the mission to reload a new one!
    
   You'll never need to create your own scenarios (too predictable) again!
    
6. Amazing Auto-lasing JTACs will designate targets for you without any interaction menu fumbling (no 9-line, readback, buggy comms) Other scripts include CSAR (helo search and rescue) CTLD (helo menu for crates/building/sling loading) and an AWACs reporter to help you locate bandits.
    
7. The highly dynamic mission generation engine of this mission is FULLY CUSTOMIZABLE. You can edit mission spawns to your liking, disable or enable auto-spawning missions/a2a ai/random air traffic, and you can even customize the amount and types of ground targets at mission zones!
    
8. The mission is ENDLESS. Repeat or do new missions as long as you'd like.

 

FEATURES:

• Wide variety of aircraft to choose from
• Choose between several eras of war
• "Never the same experience" for every type of mission.
• Ground and Sea Mission generate enemy units dynamically, at random positions within an AO, and their unit composition will be random as well.

• Air to air missions will generate random enemy aircraft types, and they will spawn at a random position, and will have random tasks/waypoints of their own each time an air to air mission is generated!
• Do things on your own time. Want to fly around a bit before you start? Sure, accept and start missions on your command.
• Several types of missions to choose from
• Do several missions at once (multiplayer recommended) for a larger-scale operation
• Configure all and any aspects of all of the spawnable missions with configurable mission options
• Configure other mission options to play the way you want
• JTAC Autolase
• Airboss Carrier Ops Script
• Repeatable/endless missions that are never the same each time

WHAT'S INCLUDED?

Modules and add-on compatibility:

All DCS modules, both fixed and rotary wing are available to fly and operate in TTI. Since the mission era/time period can be changed as desired, this gives any and all modules a compatible mission combat environment.

WW2 Asset Pack is optionally supported. If you own the WW2 Asset Pack, you can enable these units to fully experience and utilize them however you'd like.

You can optionally add your own client slots for co-op, they can be modded add-on aircraft as well. Please read our guides for more detail.

Mission Types:

Air to Air - Spawns a dynamically created enemy element flight. Choose between different difficulties. NOTE: These missions can infinitely stack, but an option is available to prevent stacking of forced air to air missions in the mission settings. It is advised to spawn one at a time, and only spawn new A2A missions when one is complete.

Air to Ground  - The mission will dynamically generate ground targets in a random location. There are several difficulties to choose from:

HARD - SAMs may be present.
EASY (Multirole) - No SAMs will be present.
Helo - These missions will spawn closer to the home base.
Helo Infantry Assault - These missions are designed for dropping off troops and/or utilizing gunship helos.
Anti-Ship - This will spawn a group of enemy ships.
Convoy Hunt - Hunt down moving enemy ground vehicle convoys.

Mission WPT Label definitions (the labels that appear on your HSI/planning tools in-aircraft)

MR - Multirole/A2G Easy
AG - A2G Hard
AGH - A2G Helo/Infantry

Labeled same as mission zones in mission editor.

Random/Ambient Events:

- Random enemy A2A groups will spawn from time to time. This can optionally be configured and/or disabled in the mission settings.

- Random enemy vehicle or troop reinforcments might show up at active ground missions at random times. This can optionally be configured and/or disabled in the mission settings.

- Random air traffic for both friendly and enemy airbases will do random routes and patrols if this feature is enabled.

Hi and great job ! I have a wish, If you could make a file pack with the map being Day, Cold Night, Stormy weather, Normal weather.

 

I hope this will make your mission file more attractive for new pilots in need of a awesome training ground.

It gets a bit hectic to manage, but it's easy enough to change those in the mission editor :D

[CrimsonGhost]

Thank you very much for making this available so quickly. Really helpful for those of us with little to no skills in the ME. :)

[Cutlass72]

@deadlyfishes fantastic work you put into this series of inferno missions.

 

How best to notify or request permission to use the mission in a closed co-op multiplayer (password normally given to regular viewers) whilst streaming?

That's fine with me, as long as you're not running it as a main 24/7 public server. We've got that covered ;) Feel free to bring your stream to our server if you want to as well, it's well suited for intermediate to advanced pilots.

Dammit I never had so much fun learning ME :) Thanks

[SierraFox]

I mainly flew MP on the TTi maps but recently am discovering the fun of singleplayer again and making my own missions.

 

 

I remember quite a while ago there was a way to get AI wingmen to join you on flights but i have not been able to figure out how to do this. this it still possible to do this and if so, how?

Fantastic news, very much appreciated and I'd be happy to run a stream of gameplay from your dedicated server, I'm getting a few more viewers of late with the Persian Gulf and FA18 soon.

Thanks again @Deadlyfishes

Does this run well on 2.50 Stabile? My system specs are Win 10 I7 6700K @ 4.0 GHZ. 16 gig memory GTX 1070 SSD and I use the Rift CV-1. I fly the A10C and play single player only in the Caucus maps as well.

[Ryno1217]

I have a question which might be a dumb one, but I am relatively new to downloading and running missions, so please bare with me.

 

I am interested in downloading the PG version for a private Coop mission. I see you have scripts involved. Do I need to also download and install each script or is that something that is included with the mission download?

 

Thanks and apologies in advance if it is a stupid question.

[feefifofum]

That's all built into the .miz :thumbup:

[Ryno1217]

Much appreciated!

The F/A-18C Hornet Module has been added to the latest version. Check the ED User Files page of this mission to get the latest version. The link is in the first post of this thread.

Is it possible to double some of the aircraft so we can fly in COOP the same airframe from the same airbase?

 

I haven't checked but would this be possible maybe to edit in the ME?

[Hotdognz]

+1 on this would be awesome as a MP Coop option for a mission.

Yes, if you want more slots for Co-op, just add them in the Mission Editor. It is best to copy+paste a slot instead of adding more jets within the group.

[ZeroReady]

Hey I really like the mission, but the helicopter mission spawns 150 miles away from the base. That's pretty far in a huey at 90 kts, even a little far for the A10C, speaking as someone who doesn't get a lot of time to play. Should I just keep spawning missions til I get one that's closer? I love flying, but with kids my time is very limited, sometimes I just want to fly a few (50ish) miles out and ccip some mk82s, maybe a refuel.

 

Haven't tried to see how close I can spawn a mission yet, but I was curious if 150 miles is typical for a helo mission?

 

Thanks for you hard work

[toilet2000]

Just some stuff I've discovered:

 

 

For some reason, none of the bombing modes of the Viggen work, but this happens only when playing TTI (on PG). Any other mission on PG is fine.

 

 

When spawning on the Stennis with an F-18, the F10 map does not show anything (super zoomed in on a part of the ocean, without the ability to zoom out). This happens to both me and a friend playing in COOP.

This is why there are two bases. One in IRAN and one in UAE.

 

 

Take note of the mission location, and then choose your spawn point accordingly.

Hmmm. Sounds like a weird bug built into the Viggen then... I'll take a look, but try re-aligning your GPS/INS or whatever when you are on the ground that may be set incorrectly since I've copy+pasted some slots from other maps.

 

 

Let me know how that goes, I'll see about fixing this.

 

 

How can I re-create this problem?

[deadlyfishes]

A major error in mission completion detection for A2G Helo Mission 2 has been fixed and pushed to the ED User Files page. Please download the latest version which can be found on the initial post of this thread.

 

 

Thanks!

[BlacleyCole]

How are the huey missions

[deadlyfishes]

How are the huey missions

 

 

 

 

As the original post mentions, it's a very sand-box like mission, where you can approach any mission type in any airframe you'd like.

 

 

So for the Huey;

 

 

I could recommend starting an "Infantry Assault" Mission

 

 

Pick up some troops at the smoke marker, go to the mission area which has a lot of troops and some soft ground targets, drop off your guys and put door gunners on weapons free and enjoy the light show :)

 

 

The options are limitless.

[RedeyeStorm]

Hallo Deadlyfishes,

 

I prefer sp over mp so your missions are the ones I play the most. The only concern I have is that you always fly solo. Now I loaded your mission into the editor and gave myself a wingman. The only problem is that ones it has rtb'ed I have to fly solo again or restart.

 

I was wondering if it is possible to give the player an ai wingman that despawns after landing and respawns when the player starts his engines with a full loadout again? Going overboard here but it would be great if you could choose a wingman with a2a or a2g loadout for the multirole planes.

 

Just dreaming here.
