F18 Maple Flag Missions?

[Bobstar]

Hi all,

 

 

Newby question, am I being a bit thick but, is it possible to re

-fly missions? I left Mission 2 before completion, due to non-flying issues and now I cant re-fly it without re-setting and starting from the beginning of the campaign? Starts me at Mission 3, Surely, this isn't right? I hate to get half way through and for another reason have to start at the beginning again!

The Campaign progression is based on the final score but I believe once you say 'READY' then if you don't complete the mission it will move to the next mission (assuming that you did intend to fly the mission).

 

You can manually edit your logbook to revert back to the previous mission. Use NOTEPAD ++ to make any changes and take a backup copy first. Alternatively you can email us your logbook.lua to mapleflagmissions@gmail.com and we will edit it for you.

 

You can also play Mission 2 again by opening the mission file directly in the Mission Editor. Point the file browser at the path where the campaign is installed and then you can select any of the practice or campaign missions.

 

Email us at mapleflagmissions@gmail.com if you have further questions or issues or post to the forums.

 

Thanks for supporting our work.

Hi, Thanks for that. Went to Mission Editor but, can't see this Campaign? Any ideas? I'll continue to look into it, see if my IT newby head can figure it out!

It should be within this path:

Hi, I just bought the F-18 aggressor campaign. In the first mission I am having a problem, when I set the assigned waypoints the distance is not reduced during navigation ... can someone tell me why? I also can't get Auto mode for waypoints on the DDI.

I'm not sure I correctly understand your problem: for me wp navigation works ok.

 

What I usually did is:

- open HSI on one ddi,

- click the WYPT osb to enter wp navigation mode.

- click the SEQ1 osb to display route leg.

- click the AUTO osb to turn on auto wp switch.

 

Then everything goes smooth

It's possible (likely) GPS isn't available for your "aggressor" Hornet as it's not in coalition with Russia or the USA (who own the satellites).

 

AFAIK you can do a fixed/INS waypoint update before moving the aircraft after the initial alignment

 

INS Update

1. Coordinates of the first waypoint can be used to set own coordinates after INS align completed
a) on HSI page choose wpt 0 using PB12 "up" or PB13 "dn", then press PB14 "WPDSG"
b) on HSI page press PB7 "UPDT", press PB7 "DSG", press PB6 "ACPT"

 

or set

 

• DCS -> Options -> Gameplay ---> Unrestricted SATNAV = ☑

 

... however there's a report of issues with " Unrestricted SATNAV" not working in 2.5.6, so YMMV.

I don't own the campaign myself so can't check the current Open Beta.

I'm doing the same campaign in those days and gps navigation works fine for me.
