ronht Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Here is a night mission that I've been working on that provides a bit of a different challange. Keep the cockpit lights turned off and use the Night Vision Goggles. For best results, turn on the Night Vision Goggles then - Turn down the contrast on the Shkval screen so it's not distracting. You will not be using the Shkval on this mission. Turn down the Abris brightness so it's readable Turn down the HUD brightness Your loaded with rockets, use of boresight sighting is recommended. Also, be familiar with how to use the search light, the first click extends it the next click turns it on. Use the searchlight close in to light up your targets when aiming rockets then turn it off. Enjoy ronAirbase Under Siege.miz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronht Posted December 7, 2008 Author Share Posted December 7, 2008 I have been away at work and didn't have time to fully explain what you can expect or what I was trying to achieve with this mission. First of all this mission takes place at night, which in BS - like the real world is VERY dark. This mission was designed to explore the possibilities available with the mission editor and as such you will not face all the same challanges each time you play it. To fully enjoy this mission, you need to be comfortable with your flying abilities with the KA-50 because of the limitations of using Night Vision Goggles and the need to rely heavily on the helicopters instrumentation. This is more of a technical mission, that explores the challanges of fighting with the KA-50 at night (at the edge of it's designed capabilities) and as such offers a much different and limited visual experience. ron 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleEye Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 (edited) Hi ronht, - I have trouble finding the Artillery I have to destroy. Could you pls describe in the mission briefing where exactly the Ari is. - Is it planned to refuel on a enemy Farp? I did it on the Unit1 Farp... - How can I find the aircraft carrier? It`s very atmospheric mission. It`s cool to see the tracers from AA. It`s also nice to hear you speaking. :-) Rep inbound!

Royale Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 (edited) Great mission roht! First night mission I've tried. A great challenge and a fun flight A few screenies: Edited December 8, 2008 by Royale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronht Posted December 8, 2008 Author Share Posted December 8, 2008 The artillery is located north of the city pretty much straight east of where the enemy tanks are coming from. Look for the flashes as they fire. If you follow the ABRIS course out over the city and turn north to the next waypoint you should be pointed pretty much at them, turn the brightness on the ABRIS down so you can read it. The aircraft carrier is located south west of the airport. Look for the lights on the carrier and take care not to get too close to the airport if the airport is over-run. Just for reference, the carrier is traveling eastbound. If you check out the map before starting the mission you should get a pretty good idea where it is located. Use your night vision goggles and the searchlight, landing on the carrier at night provides a bit of a different challenge. enjoy ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soup55 Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Thank you! It is really great to see someone build a mission that challanges your flying abilities, and, at the same time learn more about using the different systems that are built in, and, the flight parameters that the Ka-50 is capable of. Your work is very much appreciated! Keep'em coming!! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] SOUP55:matrix: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

splashman Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 HTA, i'm currently in the process of finding an sound card related error. Right now if i try to play this mission, after ~2-3 seconds the screen constantly freezes. If i disable sounds in BS Options i can play just fine. Other missions( e.g. stock campaign missions) run fine, some missions (Dragons mission pack SP, Attack on Krymsk) freeze at a later time. Could please somebody verify, that this (Airbase under Siege ) mission still works with sound under version 1.0.1? Thanks in advance. i7 2600K - 8GB - Win7/64 - Radeon R9 280 / 3GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
