Minor issue, but IIRC, the campaign is set in early 90's since the opposing side is still Soviet Union, right? Asking as I've noticed the Hornets taking off before you in the first mission carry AIM-9X, so that looks odd.

 

 

Oh they do? Weird, I thought I made sure they had all aim9ms max. Thanks for letting me know.

Well, I'm pretty sure the one taking off from CAT3 in front of you had AIM-9X's as you can't really mistake them for M's.

I've made a video if it can help you to see what's need to be done

@VdK Your video shows a FLOLS overlay. Is that a SuperCarrier thing only?

I just got the F14 and have never seen that or option to enable it.

I don't have SuperCarrier.

[veenee]

that FLOLS overlay is one of the most immersion braking things ever added to DCS

 

and yes, you only get it with SC

@IronMike The music in mission 4 is it something we can use making our own F-14 videos? If so, where can I find the files.

Thanks in advance.

Great campaign so far!

Nice, thank you!

I tried replacing those default carries with SC versions and they seem to work just fine 

 

Far more immersive than those stranded decks.

Not really immersive, but pretty useful. To be honest, I don't even know if you can turn it off. 

 

I just finished mission 2, and it already was a challenge for me. Those air to air refueling are killing me and it was my very first case 3 landing. So I probably got it all wrong

 

But very fun mission to fly.

You can drag it off the screen afaik.

 

Useful - yes. But speed shown on the screen somewhere also would be useful in F-14. Should we have it however?

Why do all the hornets have the TACT pod on right wingtip in mission 4?

Must be a mistake. Should be aim9

[Dun_Aenghus]

Found time to do the first two missions and really enjoyable so far. Great job with the voice actors, really immersive. Especially Jester - cool to hear some more from him on top of the the usual stuff. Looking forward to completing this one and more of the same in the Persian Gulf campaign  

[Wavehopper]

Third mission (intercept, cap, case 1)

Thanks

Hi, loving the campaign but I'm having an issue in Mission 5 (Alpha Strike) and can't progress

Spoiler

After the MiG-29s are destroyed, I'm told to go back to the CAP station and then receive no further orders. I waited long enough that all strike aircraft landed on the carrier. Am I doing something wrong? Is it maybe because one of the MiGs is destroyed on the ground by a cruise missile?

Thanks for your help.

Did you download the hotfix from couple days ago? I accidently deleted part of a trigger when adding the voice files, hence it got stuck. I was hoping only one guy ran into it, and the rest of you would have found the hotfix. Check in the first post and just download mission 5 and replace existing one. My apologies for the inconvenience. Includes some other minor fixes, too.

[phtate0830]

Thanks! Totally missed the hotfix, my mistake. Thanks for replying so quickly!

The campaign has now been added to the build.

Thanks IronMike. Enjoying the campaign. I noticed that the Data link frequency for the AWACS does not appear in the kneeboard list in later missions. The list is full of entries for the fleet, but no AWACS. Is this intentional or is the list somehow too full because of all the ships having D/L and therefore being truncated?

It could be the latter. The list also goes by proximity. See if it doesnt appear close to the carrier either. Unless I forgot to set the ILS channel, although I think I set them, I will check.

This is awesome, thank you so much for your work and these excellent missions. 

 

Just played Cage the Bear mission 1 with some friends (RIO and a wingman) and it was so much fun. Keep it up!
