Sydy Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Hi guys, I just started the P-47D Wolfpack campaign it was a delight! On the very first mission (intro), the video hung in the middle and froze DCS so I had to terminate it via task manager. On 4k, the initial fps was just 17 and I thought "OMG, gonna have to lower stuff here", but surprisingly on the second attempt the fps went up to ~50 and kept there. This was the only bug so far. I loved the environment and I knew @Reflected would do a great job. I was right. So, the mission was to Escort Big Friends and, after being released, free hunting. If you want to jump in to action, here goes an index: 00:30-03:00 - Start up 05:30-06:30 - Takeoff 09:15 - Rendez-vous 14:30-18:45 - Dogfight (3 kills) 22:20-23:00 - Channel B Audio 25:00 - Disappointing Landing (LOL - it was horrible) Btw, I just uploaded it and YouTube takes time to process the high-res version of it. So, if it is just a 360 res vs, wait a bit and go back later to see it in 4k. Here it goes: If you want my Quick Reference Checklist, it is available on the DCS User Files Download page: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3310190/ Congratulations, Reflected! Awesome product. I will keep posting the videos on this thread as I produce it. All the best, Sydy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reflected Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Great video Sydy, thanks for this. I'm surprised you got 3 kills, you were supposed to cover your element lead but I see he gave you the opportunity. It's best to try and land alone, not with the AI, though. Looking forward to the rest. 1 Facebook Instagram YouTube Discord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kovacs Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Hi, Yes congratulations for your product ! Unfortunately the second mission crashed at the end, when I wanted to leave it, disgusted I reported that in the bugs of 2.7. Kr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reflected Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Yeah, crashes suck. If you don't want to refly the whole thing, just start up, take off, then hit escape. You won't get any kills, but you'll progress to the next one. 2 Facebook Instagram YouTube Discord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran out olf fuel in the first mission. How can I progress to the second mission? Just taking-off and exiting the mission didn't do it for me.

Reflected Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 It should....try taking off then calling air sea rescue to be sure and wait for a reply, then exit. Facebook Instagram YouTube Discord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hm, how long should I wait for confirmation and does anybody know how I can access the radio menue in the air? I can only access the communications menu when on the ground. I took off landed again and called air and sea rescue, but it didnt't work, maybe becuase I did land at the airbase or I didn't wait long enough.

Reflected Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 You’re pressing the wrong button. ‘Comms push to talk’ is what you need or radio button or smth like that. You should also be on the right frequency. 1 Facebook Instagram YouTube Discord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Spad_ Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Loving this campaign but oh boy, the DCS AI can be an absolute nightmare to try and fly formation off. Will I miss any triggers if I fly away from my flight lead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reflected Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 You won’t miss any triggers, you’ll miss the action triggers are not triggered by the player, events happen whether you are there or not. The further yoi are from your lead the more you need to pay attention to the radio to know when you need to do something. Depends on how far you mean though. AI is erratic by nature but it’s not that bad, you’ll get used to it, check my playthrough video. Facebook Instagram YouTube Discord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SVgamer72 Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 Loving the campaign so far, but struggling to keep up with the AI. They climb and pull away like I am standing still.What MP and RPM are the AI running when climbing to cruise altitude?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reflected Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 2550 rpm, 52” MP. Never get slower than 155 mph, once they pull away it’s hard to catch up. But it’s possible if you fly clean and straight, check my playthrough video. AI climb speeds and angles are hard - coded in DCS.

Sydy Posted April 27, 2021 Author Share Posted April 27, 2021 Hi guys, Just to update the thread: Today I will post mission 6, which is quite nice and I got another kill. All the best, Sydy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabi_tro Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 I want to purchase the campaign but I also have to buy the map...and I don t think it s worth the money since it s almost like normandy. But let s say I buy it...is it that hard to keep up wit the AI? And one more thing..with all those units in mission 1..is this playble in VR with a 2080 super gpu and i9900k ?

Reflected Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Hi @Gabi_tro 1) It's not like Normandy, it's WAAAY better It's really beautiful. 2) It's not that hard if you fly right. Check here: 3) It should be playable as long as you have reasonable settings. Check my 2.7 settings guide on youtube. Also, you have the option to fly with 24 bombers instead of 72.
