cobragva Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Hello Badger, First, congrats for the campaign, it is really well done !!! on mission 7 and 8 (easy), altough I did configure the tacan 10x AA, I couldn’t find the tanker. On mission 7, I had enough to fly back to home but not the mission 8. For mission 8, I couldn’t even find him on the SA page which was bizarre. Could you check if the mission is correct ? Kind regards, Cobra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind regards, Cobra Thanks cobragva Currently in DCS you must not select AA just T/R when trying to contact the tanker with TACAN. Just like ground based TACAN. Hope this helps let me know if it doesn’t. Badger633 Edit: Just checked, worked ok this end without AA selected.

VDV Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 (edited) Mission 13 problem here, with second AAR. My stupid wingman always hits me and after that we both crashed, mission failed. Tried it thounsand of times... he must get port (left) side as usual, but he wants go get the right side and hits me. And one more thing - tanker dont lets me to refuel, i `ve done evertything correct, but the basket is never hanged up into my refueling pipe..may be its something of bug i dont know.

Hi Yes it seems to be a recent DCS bug. I need to look into it. In the meantime if you go to the starboard side to refuel, as you are instructed, and you cannot connect then move directly to the port side as the AI wingman seems to now to be deciding to head starboard side sometimes but not always. This never happened before but updates seems to changed things. Could you let me know if it’s only happened on this or other missions. Hope this helps and will confirm when resolved.

VDV Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 (edited) Badger633, thank you. No, other missions are working perfectly - no problem there, only in mission 13 with second AAR. I hope this mission will be fixed soon.. You have made a great campaign btw, well done, great job. (sorry for my font-something messed up with my keyboard).

Assamita Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 (edited) Hi. I'm now in mission 8, and there's a SEAD team supposed to get rid of some SA-6 on the island, and call for "Freedom" when those have been destroyed. However, they release the HARMs (code Skylark), but they never call Freedom. I've seen a video on Youtube, and HARMs are supposed to reach their targets at around minute 50, but I keep flying in circles in WP2 and they never call it, and if after several circles I decide to head towards the island, the SAMs are still there. Am I doing something wrong or might this mission be corrupted with some of the latest updates? Edited June 3, 2022 by Assamita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Assamita Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 I think it was as silly an issue as not launching from the proper CAT. I didn't pay attention and was launching from CAT 1, and I was supposed to do it from CAT 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This due to recent DCS updates. I have now fixed this and it has been submitted to ED. It will be in the next DCS update which will be soon.

Yesterday I was playing this mission again and following the missiles cam. Out of the two, one missed its target, therefore I couldn't again approach the island.

I hope that fixed is deployed soon BTW, great campaign, I'm enjoying it a lot I played it again and one of the missiles missed again, so I decided to fly high speed low level (30 to 50 ft ASL) to avoid the SAM detection and destroy it myself with one of the AGMs, and later destroyed the truck attacking the boat with the gun. Not ideal in terms of fuel efficiency, but a nice and fun twist to the mission. Very Top Gunish flying so fast so low above the sea Edited June 5, 2022 by Assamita 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Assamita Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 If it's of any use, I've finally completed the mission. I think that the missile miss if you reach WP2 before minute 50, which is when impact is expected. If I sync it to arrive at minute 50 or earlier, both missiles hit. Don't know the logic about it, but it's what I've experienced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truth is you cannot depend on AI to always hit their targets especially if it’s a key the mission progression. So need fail safes which I have now added.

Assamita Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 BTW, something else that is not working for me is that I can't see my wingman in the SA page, and yes, DL is on (channel 336.0). Or am I doing something wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or am I doing something wrong? Yes. Channel 336.0 is currently for the Automatic carrier landing system. When you switch the DL on you need to press the DL button a second time and set on for a second time. This will then switch on the SA data link. Hope this helps.

Rattles Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Awesome campaign. I will be waiting to see whats next from you and will definitely do this one a few more times very soon. My biggest compliment is towards the briefings. They are clear and concise with everything I needed easily available at all times. Not having to wade through pages and pages of an adult golden book in order to decipher my mission targets or need to remind myself of them, was an extreme welcome relief. Thank you.
