Critter Posted August 1, 2023 Posted August 1, 2023 I thought I saw this elsewhere but now I cannot find the post. After taking out the targets and heading to the second tanker I am not finding Exon 55. I got to button 8, TACAN to 15x, TACAN is ON, navigate to where the tanker is supposed to be and its not there and I cannot contact the tanker on button 8. The kneeboard says Exxon is on button 8, TACAN 15x and at FL200. I thought I saw somewhere that there is not an Exxon just Texaco. Hope this makes sense. Anyone else have this issue? Thanks

Critter Posted August 7, 2023 Author Posted August 7, 2023 Finally finished the mission, there was not an "Exxon" the TACAN 15X worked but as far as coms go in F10 I Texaco as the only option, and on the map Texaco showed up as Alico. I was at the wrong altitude, I was at at 20,000 feet and should have been at 22,000. So I was able to find the tanker, however hooking up with the tanker, that is a totally different story, those wingtip vortices are quite the challenge. Thank you for adding the ability to save and move on without actually having to hook up with the tanker. Really liking this campaign.
baltic_dragon Posted September 26, 2023 Posted September 26, 2023 Yeah, there is no option to add Exxon as it is a custom name used in a novel - so for radio comms you have to use Texaco or Arco. Can't change it unfortunately, but glad you like the campaign! For more information, please visit my website.

Biggles81 Posted May 24, 2024 Posted May 24, 2024 Hi Msn 3 Manpad issue now fixed, so thanks for that. But, still won't give mission completed after landing back on the carrier. I've done it after fake tanking from Exxon and flying directly back after Al Basrah CAS. Deck is also fouled with F18 across it. Am only being awarded a "draw". Really enjoying it otherwise.
baltic_dragon Posted May 27, 2024 Posted May 27, 2024 OK, we'll have a look at that as well. I just pushed a hotfix for AAR part, because last patch which was supposed to fix things introduced a new bug that broke others... For more information, please visit my website.

jmarso Posted December 29, 2024 Posted December 29, 2024 I just flew this full mission and did the AAR for the first time- I appear to finally be able to AAR in the Hornet, it'll only took me a couple years of trying! Anyway, the mission worked fine from start to finish. The only hangups were getting the tankers to respond right when I joined up. Seemed like I had to try multiple times to get them to acknowledge we were there and extend the refueling drogues. It takes me so long to refuel that the durn mission takes forever, but at least I was able to do it this time. Progress!

Started from beginning, skipping "first part" and "RTB"; everything seems to work EXCEPT the ending. I land on the carrier and all, but never get the mission complete and only get 50 points so its a draw.

I land on the carrier and all, but never get the mission complete and only get 50 points so its a draw. Me too, I am running DCS 2.9.13.6818. I have tried it three times now with same non result. First time around I skipped to the first refuel, completed the CAS mission, refuelled and then completed the case one but a line of F18 in Baltic Dragon livery (cool by the way) were blocking the taxi in and the marshaller just gave me the stop signal and there was no mission complete message. The 2nd and 3rd time I skipped to the RTB part of the mission and got cleared for a case 3 recovery, landed but with no marshalling and no cue to say mission complete. The last time I left the game running until I flamed out but again no mission complete message. I ended up just editing my logbook lua file to say I completed it (https://forum.dcs.world/showpost.php?p=2180489&postcount=740). I also could not contact the tanker on the way home until I formed on his wing and the dialogue was triggered, at this point the tanker appeared in the comms menu. I feel for you BD, as all these bugs are created outside your control with ED updates yet you are the one who has to clean it up. Love your work man.
