Digitalvole Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 On further investigation it may be a bug? I’ve tried various campaigns and on each one I get a Culling Exclusion Zone appearing somewhere (either on one of there airbases or one of mine) well behind the front line. Doesn’t seem to have anything to do with what’s spawned at the airbase. In my latest campaign attempt on PG I got one around one of my empty airbases. is this supposed to happen, seems a bit odd, and certainly can make culling almost pointless in some scenarios.

Lace Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 How have I only just discovered Liberation? I had heard it mentioned in passing in a few places, but naively assumed it was some server based MP thing (I know it can be). I never realised it can be used to generate SP offline missions in a coherent campaign. Tried it for the first time last night flying one of the basic Caucasus scenarios as part of a DEAD package of Vipers. Compared to my home made missions, the coordination of the other ATOs and packages made the whole thing feel so much more real, as though I was genuinely part of something larger, rather than a one-man-air force vs the world. I would like to say a huge thanks to the developers. This would be an essential purchase for me if it was a paid module, but as something offered for free then I am even more appreciative. If the DCS dynamic campaign engine is as good as this then I don't think there will be much complaining. Thanks again, especially for offering low-unit scenarios as an option too, as many of the commercial, scripted campaigns I've tried are so unit-heavy they are unplayable on my modest system. 2 Laptop Pilot.

Thallios Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I'm currently getting into Liberation for our MP. But I can't figure out how to change the waypoint order for player flights or to add navigation waypoints. Can anyone help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack333 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Dear partners. I would like to ask you a question, how can I go about assigning myself as a pilot in a mission that I create, say for example to attack a production building, and the program tells me that even though if it lets me create the mission, it tells me that There are no pilots assigned, unassigned, and it tells me that the mission can be carried out but by the AI. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack333 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 I answer myself, what I have to do is cancel one of the scheduled flights and "voila" I already have pilots available. Thank you for your attention 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Patricio Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 So I've been using Liberation for ages but for some reason today when I launched 4.1.1 the map screen in the center was blank. Tried reinstalling 4.1.1, creating a new campaign, and even rolling back to 4.1.0 and nothing works. It launches fine but the map in the center display won't show up. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Roosterfeet Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Two quick questions. Apologies if they've been answered before but I can't find the info. 1. When started in the air, AI Hornet flights always try to land ashore even though I set their arrival at "CVN-74 John C. Stennis." Could have something to do with using super carrier so there is no Stennis in the mission? Any ideas? 2. Are there any best practices to keep carrier launched flights from bumping into each other and getting stuck or destroyed on deck? . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sérvalpilot Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 (edited) Hi, Will the Rafale mod be added back in this?

I have the map downloaded, and it works outside of Liberation. Do I need a Mod or something else to be able to create a mission for it? Thanks for any feedback.

I have had the same problem and I solved the issue. DCS Liberation load the map from the internet. My PiHole DNS-Blocker denied the access to unpkg.com. So the map was not loaded. I set the Url to the whitelist and now it is working. Greetings Hottie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirrah Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 (edited) As much as I love Liberation, whatever I try, performance is extremely awful. In fact, to the point that it's unplayable... I can imagine this has everything to do with the massive amount of units, but I find it hard to believe I'm the only one with this issue, so perhaps I'm doing something wrong here. I mean, I also play online from time to time, on very crowded servers with lots of units (maybe even more that in Liberation). For instance the 4YA servers. And they all run smooth as butter. Today I thought I'd start a new Liberation campaign, for me to play with the Hind. My idea was that for chopper ops, I could make better use of the culling option to increase performance. Here's what I tried: Started the Syria Golan Height Campaign Culling set to 70km (I assume this means everything outside 70km radius from my starting point, will be removed, right?) Use culling on carrier group No artillery No infantry units No carcasses Battleground smoke set at 2000 But still, even with culling set to 70km, I have massive stutters and an awful/unplayable framerate. Any ideas? (my system specs in my signature. But again, I can play on very crowded servers without any performance issues, so why is Liberation that much worse?)

markusIV Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Hello everyone, I would like to ask the developers two questions: - to generate a campaign by binding all friendly and enemy planes in factions to use only specific payloads, do I have to change the payloads in the customized_payload folder? - can Liberation choose between different payloads defined for the same task ( unitPayloads.A-10A.payloads [2] .name ["CAS"], unitPayloads.A-10A.payloads [2] .name ["CAS A"] ) to automatically generate missions? I hope the questions are clear (google translator ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
battlegear2099 Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 (edited) is liberation 4.1.1 broke now with the new dcs 2.7.6.12852 open beta? latest update. my players on my dcs dedicated server are now reporting that my liberation mission have AI that are flying backwards and upside down and stuttering and moon walking lol and it also been crashing my dcs dedicated server when running liberation application and or mission. Also I am using a custom dcs setup, linux/wine/custom factions/custom template, but I tested briefing room missions and custom made mission editor mission they are all ok and dcs server is stable no crashing when hosting those missions. And it was not doing this before this dcs update. So anyone else having these issues on there dcs server is there a build that compatible with this new update or any hacks to liberation mission to fix, tried re saving in misson editor did not help and I am not really wanting to switch to normal dcs build server if possible, way too much work if its still a issue on the none open beta also. ok guess it was a mod maybe tacview or srs was too much for network and server and was causing it or somthing else so issue was resolved.

I would try and lower your total units in mission editor as a test to see liberation is generating too many units and overloading your system , as I have a smaller dedicated server and found most of campign templates were just too big for mine server with over 1000+ units even with fog of war and everything culled and turned off, still too much. so I modified a template and made my own and now I have total units of 430 and my lag issues are allot less for smaller players running on laptops and no lag for desktops. hope that helps I am using my own factions and my own custom campaign template to control the generating of total units and is working way better than any default settings.
