GTFreeFlyer Posted January 7, 2019 Posted January 7, 2019 I’m looking for a mission that would be good for a VR demo when letting friends try DCS in VR for their first time. I’m not good with the mission editor, so I thought I’d see if you can recommend, or create something. Requirements would be... -For the A-10C in Caucasus -Runway hot start -Starting airport close to water and mountains, so user can decide which terrain they prefer and get there quickly. -Plenty of ground targets to shoot at, stationary, and moving columns. A good mix that is suitable for guns, guided bombs, cluster bombs. (It’s all about providing various options so that each user can decide what best suits his taste) -Some ships in the water -Aerial refueling nearby -Very easy air targets to shoot down -Nothing that returns fire or fries to shoot you down (first time VR users just want to fly and have fun) -No aircraft failures set to occur -Minimize cockpit work for the first-time user (TGP and Mav EO defaulted to be on and active from startup, guns on, master arm on, etc) -Perhaps the user just wants to fly and enjoy the view, so waypoints should take you through scenic locations (along the coast, into the mountains, etc). -15-20 minute flight from takeoff to landing since VR isn’t for everyone and 15 minutes might be too long if you are prone to motion sickness. Something like this would be great, if it doesn’t already exist. Thanks a bunch.

feefifofum Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 This checks most of the boxes. All you'd need to do is click on the parked planes at the airport and change the waypoint type to "takeoff from runway." There's only one real target area but I've included both moving and stationary naval and ground targets as well as numerous groups of AA target drones. The range is easy to spot visually from a distance. No "tourism" flight plan but you're right by the mountains at Batumi and the route is along the Black Sea coast.
