This mission fails to load for me

[Raven_Morpheus]

Hey all

 

 

I have the attached mission that I'm trying to play, but it won't load for me.

 

 

Would anyone here be willing to try it out and see if it's just a problem on my end or one with the mission/2.5.5 Open Beta?

 

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi

 

just tried seems ok for me.

 

Mission opened.

 

attach your dcs.log after your next attempt we may see something in it

[Raven_Morpheus]

Hmm. Thought it might just be a problem my end. It was working until I updated to 2.5.5.

 

 

It gets past the briefing, then I get an A-10C splash screen with the progress bar, and the bar doesn't go past halfway, it just sits there.

 

Other missions seem to work fine, of the one's that I've tried so far at least.

 

My log is attached.

what operating system are you running ?

 

 

(x86_64; Windows NT 6.1.7601)

 

isn't NT 6.1 a 32bit OS?

 

or are you trying to run dcs in compatibility mode?

 

edit: sorry it is Windows 7, Service Pack 1

 

Have you tried a cleanup and repair?

Thanks, haven't tried a cleanup/repair. I have however reverted to 2.5.4.30386 and the mission now loads for me. So definitely an issue with this mission in 2.5.5 for me.

 

I'll update to the latest version, run a cleanup/repair (although I shouldn't have to, right?) and see what happens...

OK, so I tried a cleanup/repair after re-updating to 2.5.5.whateverthelatestis, and that mission still doesn't work for me.

Found corruptions in mission:

 

• Reselect the FARP as the browser picture in the ME was showing as a Mortar (Error was logged in DCS.log about FARP EDM being wrong version)
  
• The Triggers "Sound to all" had a zero length sound file, so was also corrupted, reloaded the correct xmit.ogg file)
  
• Resaved Mission and all went well, didn't prior to fixing issues.
  
• Fired up mission = run ok, I didn't play though.
  

Corrected missions for ya.

the original and the fixed version also has problems

 

vehiclegroup 4 not selectable in both.

In the fixed version unit list icon not working.

Altough both mission is loading for me and simulatable.

Thanks Ian that's great. It seems to work now. Although I wasn't expecting anyone to fix it for me. But thanks again for doing so.

 

Although I did have a problem to begin with. I loaded it once, then exited and went back to load the mission again, and it wouldn't load. The dcs.log file had that error about the FARPs.edm files so I deleted those, and repaired my install (again).

 

Seems to load OK now. Crossing my fingers...

fixed version in not enough good

 

Drops the same GUI error on try to select particular ground vehicles or try to pop up unit list.

If the missions are written by DCS this is a DCS failure.
