sidekick65 Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 Here is the first in a series of A-4E Skyhawk missions in what will eventually become the "Haiphong Harbour" Campaign, loosely based on the Operation Rolling Thunder II. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3311399/ There are some videos to accompany the mission here: Enjoy. 3
Rudel_chw Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 I liked this mission very much, I'm still very new to the A-4E and still was able to fly and enjoy the challenge of bombing a well defended target with an aircraft that doesn't have CCIP or Combat Computer ... looking forward to more missions on this Series :thumbup: Thanks for sharing it, and maybe it would be worthwhile to put a link to this thread, on the Mission description, so that players may comment on it here or report eventual bugs.

sidekick65 Posted July 22, 2020 Author Posted July 22, 2020 Hey guys, the mission includes an in-game scoring system. If you do try the mission, why not post a screen shot of your results here. Let's find out who the real Scooter-jocks are!
Rudel_chw Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 Hey guys, the mission includes an in-game scoring system. If you do try the mission, why not post a screen shot of your results here. Nice Mission, not complicated yet challenging .. this was my best result out of a dozen sorties :thumbup: Best regards, Eduardo For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB
sidekick65 Posted July 24, 2020 Author Posted July 24, 2020 DUDE! Nice work. That's a score to beat. Anyone?
sidekick65 Posted August 7, 2020 Author Posted August 7, 2020 The Second Mission is Up The second mission in the series - Bridge Attack is up! In case you have forgotten here's how it looked: Have at it and post your scores here!
Rudel_chw Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 The second mission in the series - Bridge Attack is up! :thumbup: here is the link to the mission file: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3311637/ I've enjoyed this mission, it isn't complicated but the bridges are pretty small so the bombing precision needed is a challenge .. so far I've been able to destroy either bridge, but not both: Here are some pics from my attempts: looking forward to the next one :smartass: Cheers!

sidekick65 Posted August 14, 2020 Author Posted August 14, 2020 Go Get Yourself a Convoy! Mission 3- Looks Like We Got Ourselves a Convoy is out. Get it here: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3311719/ Also, here's a video of Rudel_chw playtesting the mission. Note that this video is not of the final mission. We made a few changes after he flew - mainly we made it a few minutes later so the final version is a bit darker. I also fixed the bug in the scoring (did you catch it?). Also, the final version has an option for the player to ask for a smoke marker to find the target. It can be a bit tough to see the first couple of times you go looking for it.
Baco Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 Grate work Sidekick! I am going to get my squaud to fly this missions as mandatory certification jejeje
sidekick65 Posted August 16, 2020 Author Posted August 16, 2020 Excellent. Post the screenshots of the scores here!
sidekick65 Posted August 24, 2020 Author Posted August 24, 2020 Mission 4 Available Hi All, The fourth mission - Iron Hand - is now up on the user files site. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3311948/ The main mission in this one is pretty easy (if you fly the assigned route), but getting any of the launchers with your rockets will test your ability to avoid low level AAA fire. It CAN be done though as this video attests.
Chef98 Posted August 25, 2020 Posted August 25, 2020 Hi guys, vary happy about the new map and here is the Golan_Commander. Battle for the Golan heights for 1-4 Skyhawk pilots. A scripted horde mode where you can manage you defense troops and call reserves for tactical points. It's a tough mission, alone you have to be very very good, better fly it with friends. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=284296
sidekick65 Posted September 3, 2020 Author Posted September 3, 2020 Flak Factory Mission released The Flight to The Flak Factory mission is up on the User Files server. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3312088/ Here is a quick video of a portion of the mission flown by Rudel. See if you can beat his score!
mrmat01 Posted September 21, 2020 Posted September 21, 2020 Gday guys Tired to load A-4E Hold The Heights - Prelude (A4_Yom_Kippur_Prelude_Release) But it will not load. :cry: It says I need mod 467vFG Targets by Noodle & Stuka :huh:
Rudel_chw Posted September 21, 2020 Posted September 21, 2020 It says I need mod 467vFG Targets by Noodle & Stuka :huh: Yes, it’s an important omission and I’m sure that Sidekick will amend the mission instructions to mention how to get that Mod. You can download the Mod from this link: http://www.476vfightergroup.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=287 It is a well known mod, but if you are new to DCS then please ask a knowledgeable friend to help you install it.

Ok downloaded Mod installed 476RangeTargets here F:\Mat Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Mods\tech Still getting the same message. Don't know what is going wrong. I did notice a zip file inside 476RangeTargets under Textures called Range_Target.zip I have never seen that file structure before.

sidekick65 Posted October 11, 2020 Author Posted October 11, 2020 Iron Bombing Range Mission A few people asked if I could produce a mission with the range that I have used in a few of my videos. With Rudel's help I have put together this mission file: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3312663/ It implements Ciribob's range scoring script It also has a "SAM Exclusion Zone" feature that, when invoked from the comms menu, will limit the amount of time you can spend above 500' when within 10nm of the target. It comes with preset configurations for the A-4E, the AV8B and the A-10c II. Here is a quick video showing some of the features of the range. Enjoy!
