tstorey37 Posted June 6, 2022 Posted June 6, 2022 Sandman, Twice now after receiving the knock it off message and RTB, the mission freezes and I'm unable to complete mission. I wanted to complete your training mission in NTTR before attempting your new campaign. I've enjoyed your work to this point.

There has been quite a many core updates since I last tested this Campaign. I will check if I can find reason for freezing. There has been some freeze reports lately about DLC campaign and I haven't been able to find any other reason but possibly bit too many aircrafts nearby at same time. I'm not sure if it is performance problem but it is one possibility. For those who haven't been playing my free training mini-campaign it can be found from user-files.

Sandman Simulations Posted June 6, 2022 Posted June 6, 2022 You are right. Mission is freezing while on way back to Nellis. Almost at same point twice but not exactly. I haven't yet found reason for this problem I have never seen before after testing this mission about dozens of times. Have to continue searching what could cause the problem.
Sandman Simulations Posted June 7, 2022 Posted June 7, 2022 Training Campaign now updated. At least for me freezing not happening anymore after I fixed end of mission 4 bit more performance friendly.

Did you repost the campaign on ED?

Hi, New version 1.04 can be downloaded from DCS user files. Unfortunately it will reset your old campaign but you can skip previous missions. Because there is no good debriefing option in DCS there is not very much to see after the point freezing happened so you have pretty much passed the campaign already. I think problem was too many aircrafts in vicinity of the player. Because it is training campaign no one will die and killed aircrafts from both sides would fly back to Nellis after being hit. Unfortunately Nellis approach is not so efficient so those returning aircrafts were stacked at holding. I'm pretty sure freezing occurred when player got to point were aircrafts in holding should become visible. That problem was not there few months ago so I don't know what has changed and why it is happening. Or I can be totally wrong and problem comes back next time I test it

That is at least as good place to save it. Or even better
