Did you press SPACEBAR after startup and when you are ready to taxi ?

I cannot reproduce your problem. Sorry. 

I rechecked again right now. Well, may be you miss a step. So once again (do this in this order) :

1) Switch battery on (optional, warning sound switch on and warnings cutoff button)

2) Switch red radio on

3) Switch green radio on (2 x right click)

4) Switch on P (preset)

5) Check channel 1 is selected on both radio and wait.

=> Radio check is automatic. Leader tells you to push channel 5. Do it. And wait again.

6) Leader requests startup with the tower.

7) Start you airplane, set tacan, etc... when ready : PRESS SPACEBAR

 Leader will contact the tower to request taxi.

I made a short video (either a slide show . You'll see... it works (sorry, first time I try a video. Bad software, no idea how it works, but it should do the trick, pop up the volume!)

Cheers

Thank you very much!

I could reproduce it now - as expected the problem was me of course. 

Moving my view from right to left, I first switched the radio to P and then switched it on - I did not expect this to make a difference, my fault. Following your steps works fine, sorry for the trouble.

Else, a phantastic campaign. I am about to fly mission 6 today and I never got this far any campaign so far. Very entertaining and I love the navigation. A lot to learn here, also as a fellow mission maker.

Cheers

Glad you solved!

I wrote this, because this is an issue with the Mirage F1... We should be able to set P then set radio on. But this is not the case.

Cheers.

@dggoofy Yesterday i finished F1 Equilibrium 1975!
Your work was excellent and thanks for the time and trouble you put into this in order to provide us this free campaign.

I hope in the future you have the courage to make and give us another similar one 

[Namonid_2020]

Dear dggoofy, 

Your campaign is just excellent, payware quality, many thanks. I would pay for that, because there are very few professional campaign available depicting some geopolitical events in the "high-analog" jet era (1970-1980's). (And the F.1 is a very good module, I am looking forward to the F-4, Corsair, Intruder, Tornado... from this ERA.)  

I hope I will not hurt you with some of my remarks. (Mission 3 problems were mentioned earlier in this topic and solved, so I don't reflect on that.)

1. Please consider to change the F-14's to F-4's (there are a good AI mod), because the Tomcats have just been introduced in 1975 and they were the really 'wonders' not the F.1. Complimenting the F.1 from an F-14 pilot seems a bit strange for me in 1975. The first two squadrons (on USS Enterprise) have just been entered service (and took part in the evac of S. Vietnam) when our CADIX flight left Paphos.  

2. The whole story would be less fiction, if it took place in 1981 when Jordan really received their Mirage F.1's. French instructior pilots would flew there, even through Israel, and the story can be built around the Jordanian efforts to secede from the Arab League. (The peace treaty between Jordan and Israel were signed in 1994, but it was a long process.)

All-in-all your campaing is brilliant, wish the best. (If you think on a 1973 Yom Kippur War campaign - A-4 Mod - close to the historical events, I would very appreciate.)     

Wish the best!

[Namonid_2020]

SOME TECHNICAL ISSUE - And again I recommend this campaign for every who likes this era. 

- Some mission is a bit overtriggered and the trucks not leave the Runway. (Mission 5 for eg. / Wingman cannot take off.)

- I would replace the MB.339's to CASA 101's (static) which was in the inventory of the Jordanian AF. 

- Please hide the statics and the ground targets. 

Best.

I totally agree, this should be payware.

I agree too. This is much better than some payware campaigns I've played.

[Spirale]

Can this campaign be manually edited for the Mirage EE?

Thx for your high quality product

[TempestRiser]

Hello there sir, congratulations for your campaign, this is really great  

Please, i would like to know if it is possible to adapt your campaign missions to another type of aircraft, maybe a F-16 with limited payload in order to simulate a 70s F-16A. If it is possible i presume it will need a lot of rework on COM triggers since both aircraft use a very different radio type, could you point me where i could find those triggers?

Thank you very much!

Hi dear fellow,

Thanks for such king words. 

You've right about timeline. I do not create campaign like Reflected does (for me the best payware campaigns). However, I made some historical search about Jordan history to be a bit, only bit, close to it.  So I choose to put my campaign in 1975. I see the problem mention about Jordanian F1 in Jordan! As I see it at the end, I choose to let the static as it is. 

F-15 or F4 ? Well, I try to avoid Mods. Because, you never know if there will be updated. It would be a pitty if my campaign would not work because of a mod. But as soon as F4 will be part of DCS basoic components I could change it. True.

I have always new campaigns in mind. With A4 ? Why not... You can imagine : it takes hours. Of course, if I want to be close to the historical facts, it would take even more time. Therefore, I have to choose between fun time and historical events. I always select the firts option

Fly save.

Cheers.

No idea. I use Stable version only, so I have to wait until it becomes available. But I can imagine it would be possible, because the important triggers are set on radio channels.

However, EE version are late version, so it would not take place in 1975...

Doable, as you said, with a lot of work. Triggers are on radio and on armament type.

[o-Tomcat-o]

I've finished the campaign few days ago, and all i can say is HUGE THANK YOU !!!

You sir, gives us a truely payware standart free campaign for this incredible plane.

It's was a true pleasure to play each and every single mission. And ow that i've finished it, i have to say that i feel sad. i wanted more !! way more .

Happy to read that all mission worked well without issue.

It's an honor for me to share campaigns! And thank you for the king YouTube videos. 

I'm considering the next step in Syria using the EE version, as soon as the stable DCS version is out.

Cheers!

Hi dggoofy - I want to echo all the others complimenting your work, it's phenomenal! Sadly though, I've been playing the campaign for a week or so and have come back to it after the most recent two Open Betas and have found that both the mission I was up to - the anti-shipping strike - and a quick test of a couple of previous missions, both seem to have broken triggers. I've noticed since the most recent F1 update a week ago that a couple of my bindings have changed, and that a Stream Deck profile I use for buttons has had a lot of assignments seem to have swapped around some, so I'm wondering if Aerges has changed their designation on some controls and if perhaps that might have affected your triggers - would that sound feasible? 

I know you've mentioned you stick to the stable versions (this might help justify that approach haha!) but I'm wondering if you've heard similar things from anyone else, or if for that matter anybody else in this thread has encountered the same thing?

Hi,

Sure I will update the campaign if needed, as soon as the stable version is updated too. It's probably nothing to serious and hopefuly I'll able to fix it easily.

Cheers

[Buster0083]

Excellent, Dan - I look forward to finishing the rest of it. 

 

Cheers!

[dggoofy]

OK dear fellows,

I found the issue in the campaign. After the 2.8.4 update arguments cockpit for the green radio has been changed.

I have to update all missions, which will be done as fast as possible.

Thanks for your patience.

Cheers.

[Buster0083]

Awesome!

Really appreciate your magnificent campaign! Awesome! Thanks for all your hard work. Any improvement will be really appreciated as well as the possible adaptation to EE variant or IA addings to the current missions. Keep the great job on!

Waiting for your updates!!! Cheers!!!

Aussi un grand merci et bravo! pour @o-Tomcat-o Vous avez fait un énorme et beau travail avec vos vidéos!! Merci beaucoup!!!!

[dggoofy]

I'm pleased to announce that the Equilibrium 1975 campaign is now updated and works perfectly with the latest DCS Stable version 2.8.4.39731.

I also corrected some minor errors.

I flew each single mission! And good news : I won the campaign 

Happy landing!

Daniel

[Mik75]

Thanks a lot for your effort! Right now, I'm still learning the Viggen, but the Mirage F1 is already parked in my hangar. Totally looking forward to flying your campaign!

As I already said in the file comments : Just finished the 10th mission. I absolutly love this campaign, it's amazing. Thanks you very much.

Juste saw 2 very little mistakes :

- trigger when we are wingmen won't happen when going behind the F5 : it works only if we are going directly to the runway.

- When we manualy switch to awacs, it's said to switch 241.00 instead of  251.00.

[Joe1978]

Last year I finished this campaign and it was a lot of fun (thanks). At some point, the campaigns I had flown have appeared as inactive so I decided to fly some of them again.

Yesterday I started this one again and on mission 3 CAP (after turning right at the border), the leader no longer communicates and the mission cannot be completed.

Now that the F5 has received the update, the skings have disappeared and I fear that some parameter of the campaign may be broken. I will try to review the mission to locate the error.

Edited January 23 by Joe1978

[Joe1978]

I believe I have identified the bug: it appears that the leader's F5 makes a wide turn and does not precisely pass through the trigger. I intend to make a minor adjustment to the position and test it again tonight.

[Joe1978]

Restored. Just made a slight adjustment to the two trigger.

The problem is that the AI is capable of turning on a cent or doing turns with large radii that misalign the triggers

.

I hope I didn't upset Dggoofy as this is his campaign.
