Cowboy10uk Posted March 6, 2019 Posted March 6, 2019 Hi guys and gals, I need help, I am not the brightest spark out there, and while i can cope with learning the aircraft systems in DCS, when it comes to the mission editor, I am fully out of my depth. All i'm after doing is setting up a simple training mission with 3 x MP hornets on the deck of the stennis that also looks busy with static aircraft onboard, a tanker somewhere so we can practise AAR, and multiple targets that DON'T shoot back at the moment, to allow me and my mates to practise our radar intrigation and data sharing. Having weather would also be nice. However where do i start. I did make a mission with just the carrier and tanker, but couldn't get any of the tacans working, which made things rather difficult, Weather i just gave up on. I keep seeing people talk about Moose, Mist, scripts etc, and despite sitting here trying to read about it on the forums, watching videos etc, its just not going in. Any help and advice would be very very greatfully received.

feefifofum Posted March 6, 2019 Posted March 6, 2019 No need for any of the extra frameworks for something this simple. Everything you need is in the advanced waypoint actions menu. Click on a group; their first starting point should already be selected. For Western aircraft, it is called WP0; for Eastern aircraft, it is called SP. Click the "Advanced Waypoint Actions" button. For TACAN: Add -> Perform Command -> Activate TACAN For ICLS: Add -> Perform Command -> Activate ICLS To create targets that don't fight back: Add -> Set Option -> ROE -> WEAPON HOLD and Add -> Set Option -> Reaction to Threat -> NO REACTION For weather, click the weather icon on the left hand toolbar and select from the list of drop down presets at the bottom of the screen. Click "load" when you've selected the desired weather pattern. Modify to taste. THE GEORGIAN WAR - OFFICIAL F-15C DLC

Certainly the tacans are now appearing for both the tanker and Stennis, which is a start. Just struggling with getting the tanker to show up in the radio menu at the moment. But I’m not giving up. I’ll get this even if it kills me [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Fighter pilots make movies, Attack pilots make history, Helicopter pilots make heros. :pilotfly: Corsair 570x Crystal Case, Intel 8700K O/clocked to 4.8ghz, 32GB Vengeance RGB Pro DDR4 3200 MHZ Ram, 2 x 1TB M2 drives, 2 x 4TB Hard Drives, Nvidia EVGA GTX 1080ti FTW, Maximus x Hero MB, H150i Cooler, 6 x Corsair LL120 RGB Fans And a bloody awful Pilot :doh:

A good place to start would be watching Naked's Mission Editor video series ... https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnMdglLzp7KBkLiaNiq9N-Q/videos I don't need no stinkin' GPS!
