baltic_dragon Posted August 30, 2022 Posted August 30, 2022 I think this is linked to some changes in radio logic used in DCS. To fix this, I would have to re-do all the missions in the campaign, change frequencies, update kneeboards etc. I used FM radio which Hog drivers used in real life to communicate within the element / flight, but now it seems this causes problems with stock ATC in game. So fixing this is doable, but will require a lot of time to implement, test etc - which at the moment is impossible for me to do. So until I get around to do this, please try to fly without using the stock ATC. For more information, please visit my website.

Unfortunately its not just ATC, in M02 when following the convoy you cant communicate with them either, which is a large chunk of mission, so is game-breaking unfortunately, but not end of the world, ive already finished this campaign once, happy to wait, cheers
winz Posted September 1, 2022 Posted September 1, 2022 I've completed that mission recently (like last week), and had no problem communicating with the convoy. The "only" thing that is broken is the in-sim communications on UHF and VHF-AM radio. Custom communication works. The Valley A-10C Version Revanche for FC 3

baltic_dragon Posted September 5, 2022 Posted September 5, 2022 I will get around and update the whole campaign, but I have no time to do so at this moment, so if it is still playable (without the built-in ATC, which is horrible anyway) then I'm happy.

CH4Pz Posted September 7, 2022 Posted September 7, 2022 Yeh, my bad, while there is a big pause of 10-15seconds after he says he will contact prowler, he eventually responds! i think that pause along with ATC issues, i assumed it was bugged too. cheers

Japo32 Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 Yes... having an flight companion which I cannot communicate is a shame. I usually used to attack those things that I couldn't see.. but now only is good for crashing with mountains as always.

Comms with wingman still works (just tested), try Mic switch AFT, this is the only campaign ive used aft for wingmen, but as BD said, he done some weird stuff with the radios in this one .... as for the mountains... they'll still hit those haha (i usually tell them to anchor by the target, less likely to follow u in and crash) Edited September 22, 2022 by CH4Pz
Japo32 Posted September 22, 2022 Posted September 22, 2022 I think I remembered that I pressed the aft mic... but didn't response. I have to try again. thanks! (didn't think abour the anchor here to avoid collusion!)
Scoop Posted October 1, 2022 Posted October 1, 2022 Just played 16 and JTAC has no response, and wingman radio is aft but no verbal communication is said or displayed although he does attack the target mortars if you ask him. Also one of the vehicles at the grid reference is dark grey/black and is immortal/indestructible for some reason. The mission does move on after the mortars are destroyed and you do get 100 points on landing. Latest open beta.

baltic_dragon Posted October 4, 2022 Posted October 4, 2022 That is a different matter, when there is a lot of custom comms I have to silence the wingman, because his constant calling the same target ruins the experience. However, now we have the new set of options to just silence some of the calls, so I will play with that. After I finish updating the whole M-2000C Red Flag campaign, I am planning to get back to the Enemy Within and fly it again from start to end, finding and squashing all the bugs + updating what can be updated. So bear with me a little longer 2 For more information, please visit my website. If you want to reach me with a bug report, feedback or a question, it is best to do this via my Discord channel.

loadie150 Posted December 3, 2022 Posted December 3, 2022 Just curious where you are on fixing the issue? I've had this campaign for a while now and the same issue with ATC remains.
baltic_dragon Posted December 5, 2022 Posted December 5, 2022 To fix it I am going through all the campaign from start and improve other things while I am at it - doing a bit of face-lifting to the whole campaign. It will take some time but I would wait a month or so until the work is done. I’ll squash any bugs I encounter as well plus add some eye candy, update the load out etc - mind you, for the time being I am only working on the A-10C II version. 3 1 For more information, please visit my website.

I've had this campaign for a while now and the same issue with ATC remains. Ive just been tuning the tower still, and as soon as you roll forward he tells you the active, and as soon as you go on the RW he clears you so not too bad, then on return, i just tell wingman to anchor a "APP" waypoint while i land, and when on final i tell him to rtb, and by the time i park and shutdown hes on the deck, so not too bad. the JTAC though, thats a bit harder (they often drop flares, just kill everything!)
loadie150 Posted January 4, 2023 Posted January 4, 2023 I've just found multiplayer and that's all I've been doing lately, lol. Also just starting to learn the F18.....
baltic_dragon Posted January 8, 2023 Posted January 8, 2023 I am slowly going through the campaign, updating not only the radio thing but many other smaller issues to make sure everything works. But that means flying each mission 2-3 times, so it will be a longer process... 1 For more information, please visit my website.

Odessa Posted January 21, 2023 Posted January 21, 2023 (edited) Hi Baltic Dragon. Could you please clarify one thing? You are fixing issues with TEW3 as I see. Will these fixes come with DCS upgrade or should be downloaded separately by any way? Decided to re-play campaign and see that "radio issue". Mission 1 - no issues Mission 2 - can hear everybody can talk to wing-man, cannot talk to tower but can hear it. Looks like "Request takeoff" -> silence->go to runway->"Unable claear bla bla bal" ->"You are cleared for take off". I think I can continue without talking to tower but people mentioned jtac as well. As I understand - if I switch on labels - I can finish mission even without jtac? Edited January 21, 2023 by Odessa

Ive usually been able to find JTACs as they release flares too. see my above comment for how to handle takeoff/landing

Actually it is clear that you can perform take off and landing without talking to tower. And "kill all <reds>" idea should work. But when I played TEW3 last time, once I did RTB without HUD and both MFDs and only way which I found to get back was HSI + asking tower for azimuth. Probably ADF should help in such situation if we cannot ask tower. You know, Mission 1 was OK so I am still thinking I did something wrong. I think I did not do something with that on startup. I will try later today. null Edited January 21, 2023 by Odessa 1
Odessa Posted January 22, 2023 Posted January 22, 2023 (edited) When I create a mission with with cold start up - radio does not work. With "Take off ... hot" - radio works. Update: In my test I can talk to ATC after APU started but not in Mission 02. I will send trk to support Edited January 22, 2023 by Odessa

I will send trk to support i think he mentioned earlier he done some weird stuff with the radios in this campaign, hence why theyre not working, so a standalone test in DCS should still work, its a campaign thing.
