Gilligan Posted February 3, 2023 Posted February 3, 2023 Howdy, I'm having an issue with compatibility between the standalone F15C module and the Flaming Cliffs 3 Module. (TLDR; Standalone F15c mission content is not accessible when FC3 module is enabled. Content is restored by disabling the module but would like for both to be available if possible.) I'm playing on steam, as some time ago I had picked up the free steam edition + the F15C module while on sale for less than $10. The game sat in my steam library for a few months until another friend of mine, whom I play other games online with frequently, also expressed interest in DCS. We decided to go ahead and install the game and start learning to fly together. For solo practice during this time I was typically flying the missions found in the "instant action" tab for the f15C, of which there are several scenarios that are great for practice, and that I have been really enjoying. We made it through a couple successful weeks of these before deciding to pick up the FC3 Module while it was on sale recently. After downloading and installing the module, I booted up DCS but was dismayed to find that ALL of the mission and campaign content for the F15C standalone module had been removed from the in game menus. I was able to restore the content for the F15C by disabling the FC3 module in the steam DLC manager, so it's not the end of the world to re-enable/disable the FC3 module when I want to use some of it's content vs what is found in the standalone F15C, however if there is away to leave FC3 enabled without removing the standalone F15C mission content from the game, that would be great. Is there anyone who has relevant knowledge or experience with this or similar issues who might be able to recommend some corrective actions to remedy this? Thank you.

Gilligan Posted February 3, 2023 Author Posted February 3, 2023 (edited) They are not. There is little to no F15c Content available to me in the FC3 tab. Just a hot start, cold start, and free flight, with one option for bomber intercept. There are more options in the standalone F15C that I cannot access is with FC3 enabled, like 1v1 bvr, srike escort, and 2v2 guns, etc. I have attached images of what I'm seeing with FC3 enabled vs disabled.

Gilligan Posted February 3, 2023 Author Posted February 3, 2023 Ah. I didn't see the edit. Let me check. Andd Looks Good! They are right where you say they should be. I've just been searching in the wrong place. D'oh! This ended up being kind of silly. Many thanks for your direction and patience.
