CAMPAIGN MISSION BRIEF PHOTOS MIGRATING

[Badger633]

Just finishing and testing my new 10 mission campaign for the F18.

During the process have noticed something strange. When moving between missions in the mission editor and once when proceeding from one mission to the next in the actual campaign I have found mission A's brief photos appear in the opening brief of Mission B. This even though mission B's photos have been saved separately in line with the campaign requirements.

Initially I thought in some way Mission B's photos had become corrupted. But no, if you come out of DCS and go back in the correct photos are in Mission B.

This the case when in the campaign. If you have progressed from mission A to B and the brief photos of mission A are still incorrectly showing in mission B brief, if you leave DCS and then restart DCS and then the campaign you will then find the mission B the photos are correct.

Not sure what is going on here and if this is a bug.

 

Thanks

 

 

PROBLEM RESOLVED.............NO BUG

 

Have found out the issue so set it out here in case any of you come across it.

When compiling the campaign brief photos I stored them in different directorys ie mission 1 then 2 etc. For each mission in those directories I numbered the photos 1 to however many there were in that mission. (So some photos had the same name ie 1 but from the different directories)

It looks like to avoid the problem above all photos throughout the campaign briefs must have different names . So I renamed the photos m1 1, m1 2 etc and then m2 1, m2 2 etc. for the different missions across the campaign. Seems to have worked.
