Mission 9 crash

[blackactionedwin]

Hi Baltic Dragon,

 

I recently started with your campaign´s and let me say thank you for this entertaining and fascinating product you delivered.

 

Unfortunately I got stuck at Mission 9 when DCS crashes again and again.

 

Let me explain:

The crashes seem to occur on a regular base when B-1B hits it´s targets and askes for BDA. Then the message comes up "target destroyed and RTB" ... shortly later the crash happens. I tried 6 times by now and everytime it crashes.

 

I´d like to add that DCS normally runs very stable on my system and crashes is something rarely experience.

 

I would appreciate your feedback

Plz let me know if you need the crash log file or any other information.

 

thank you

same issue

 

Hi Baltic Dragon,

 

Thank you again for all the work in your campaigns. I bought all of them

 

I loved the first mirage campaign and enjoy this one bit slightly less. The reason is that although I like realism, there is too much radio comms and it creates confusion and this is also due to DCS. For example, on the last mission flown, I was late catching up and then i had all the comms at the same time. The first campaign, I felt a pilot, this one, I feel more like an ATC :-) Also, whenever we fail several the mission, it forces us to fly it entirely not being able to use the speed up function as your scenarios are linked to comms

 

For the issue:

- 2 time: Mission crashed.

- 3rd time: this time, when the bomber was down, i saw mission failed and it went back to the menu. Is this intended ? if yes, then at least this time

 

I fly your campaigns on DCS 2.5 (not the open beta)

 

Have a good day

Hey guys I will try to reproduce on my end and let you know.

[baltic_dragon]

Hey guys, just flew the missions on latest Open Beta in VR - nothing happened, BDA came through, everything was fine... so can't reproduce the CTD.

 

Cobraqva - sorry to hear you're not enjoying this one as much as the others, but I do understand it is much more demanding and.. hmm.. less replayable. I think for the future I will be seeking the middle ground between M1 and 2 campaigns when it comes to comms. When everything works well it is great, but when triggers fire in wrong order (be it because of player error or AI issues) it may be annoying, I know. Still, I hope you'll manage to finish it.

 

Yeah, when bomber is shot down mission stops.

 

Funny, just flew it (first time in M-2000C in months) and everything went perfectly well - good formation flying, bandits all taken care of and no CTDs...

Hi Baltic Dragon,

 

I flew it on openbeta and it worked for me.

 

Another example with the radios:

 

- Close to the attack point, the pilots are joking, then you need to switch radios while the bomber is turning right and another one is when we are in approach, 1 time, you contact approach with F10, then tower with space. Too much keyboard reaching while the moments are more intensive

 

But again, it doesn't remove the fantastic work you have done in all your campaigns and i will buy all the future ones as well.

 

best,

Cobra

Got in mission 10 and again, comms when starting to engage ennemies are changing. You apparently block the capacity to talk to the wingmans early enough and we can only interact with them just before engaging so while I was interacting with the radio to turn on AI radar and make them attack the targets, I lost the ennemies and got shot.

 

I think that was the one too much for me on the comms... I am not pursuing the campaign

[baltic_dragon]

Sorry to hear that.. the comms are not blocked in a sense that they will obey your orders but just won’t acknowledge them. There is no easy way around it when using realistic comms and frequencies as wingmen just litter the radio with useless transmissions all the time, reporting each spike. Anyway, I am aware I can’t make everyone happy and I know this particular campaign is very comms heavy.
