Version 20250506 Download: here (ED User files) Helicopter Combat Rescue (C-SAR) Sandbox [1-20 Players] =========================================== Before we begin, a warning: Whatever you do, DO NOT USE DCS' "SAVE MISSION" FEATURE. THAT WILL FUBAR THIS MISSION. "Welcome, Angel" You are a "Battle Angel", a member of Blue's elite Helicopter Combat Rescue Team "Cesar". The battle for control of Mineralnye Vody has turned into a prolonged aerial conflict. You are tasked with retrieving downed pilots north of 'Cesar Ridge' and return them to a Field Hospital inside the safe zone (marked by red smoke). Expect opposition forces to be around that are searching for pilots, so perhaps bring a friend in a gunship. Pearly Gates, your command authority, is in contact with all downed pilots. They provide you with an updated list of all pilots requesting extraction and can vector you to evacuees. All evacuees have an ELT that you can use to home in on; Pearly Gates has their frequency. Once you get close enough, the pilot on the ground contacts you and pops smoke. Land close enough to pick them up; have your gunners ready to defend against approaching forces, especially on egress. If you can't land, or prefer to hover to defend, you can winch rescue the evacuee (this is automatically initiated by your chief) WARNING: Be advised that as soon as you can see the smoke, so does the enemy. Expect that you have some two minutes from the moment that your evacuee pops smoke until your LZ becomes hot. Since there are enemy forces actively looking for downed pilots, expect enemy fire on ingress and egress. The entire area north of Cesar Ridge is contested, with lightly armed patrols roving the area, looking for downed pilots - expect enemy contact once you are clear of the ridge. WARNING: The area north of the yellow "barbed wire" line (marked "--X--X--" on the map) is exceedingly dangerous and only suited for experienced pilots and should best be entered with a support ship. Mineralnye Vody's airfield is in Redfor's hands and actively reinforced, The area around the airfield is expected to be patrolled. Only approach the airfield if absolutely required. Attacking the airfield's defenses is outside the scope of your operational parameters and a sure way to attract superior retribution force. So, fly low, fly fast, and make sure the tree-tops are above you. And come back alive, Angel! --- FRQ: FARP London 225.0 MHz Weather: CAVOK, light winds Notes: If you also have one of the other "Battle Angels" missions and persistence is enabled, the missions share player's accomplishments. If run on a server, this mission auto-restarts every 8 hours. It's an endless C-SAR sandbox mission This mission can persist all your accomplishments (landings, time, rescues) per airframe if you have persistence enabled (this requires that your DCS is 'de-sanitized'). When run on a server, install 'stopGap GUI' on the server to allow static scenery occupy open player slots. If you are a fan of the Blackhawk, you can add it to the mission and it is immediately supported.

cfrag 发布于2024年3月23日 楼主 发布于2024年3月23日 Version 1.1 - 20240323 Update fixes a small bug that could lead to issues should you kill elements of an enemy search party before the evacuee pops smoke. 1
cfrag 发布于2024年3月24日 楼主 发布于2024年3月24日 Version 1.1h - 20240323 Another update for the same rare error that seems to crop up but I can't reproduce. I hardened the code surrounding the call that fails with an error note. 1
greyeagle787 发布于2024年3月27日 发布于2024年3月27日 Really enjoying your CSAR missions! Great work and I am studying your DML system as well. You mention other “Battle Angel” missions above but I only find Caucasus. Are there others?

greyeagle787 发布于2024年3月27日 发布于2024年3月27日 No worries, plenty of time to scour the Caucasus for pickups! Thanks for all you do!!
greyeagle787 发布于2024年3月28日 发布于2024年3月28日 Just a thought as I've never done this before with someone else's mission. But is it possible to make one of the other Huey's into a wingman? Would I have to create a route, etc or can I add him to my flight/group? As there is no set route. Thanks!

Not one of the other Hueys that already exist, but you could edit one flight (group), and increase the number of ships in the group to two. Make sure to set the skill of the added ship to anything but player or client make it take off from one of the "Misc" helo pads or remove one of the existing players to make space. If you play single-player there are enough pads to choose from. If you play MP, stopGap will crash multiple helicopters occupying the same location. You wingman should follow you, and since you don't follow waypoint, he won't either. Caveat emptor: I don't know how the scripts react to multi-ship groups with AI; you'll have to find out. 本帖最后于2024年3月28日,由cfrag编辑
greyeagle787 发布于2024年3月28日 发布于2024年3月28日 So add 2 Huey’s to another flight and go from there as above. I’ll give it a try, thanks! Great Mission, BTW
Hotdognz 发布于2024年4月6日 发布于2024年4月6日 Cfag great missions mate our group is loving it. I have a question how do I hide the units and smoke markers showing on the F10 map, I cant seems to find them when trying to edit the mission, I have hidden all the Farp assets and no essential items (which is how our guys like the map to look) but just cant find those items I mentioned. Also do new rescue missions auto generate like your Angels missions. ?? Cheers

Yes, and separately for the low-intensity and high-intensity regions.

cfrag 发布于2024年7月22日 楼主 发布于2024年7月22日 (已编辑) BUG NOTIFICATION: DCS 2.9.6.57650 and 2.9.6.57656 Please be advised that DCS 2.9.6.57650 and 2.9.6.57656 (updates from July 11 and 22) completely breaks this mission. A 'fix' for a previously reported bug has rendered central functionality of this mission inert: the mission can no longer detect if a helicopter has landed. Until this is fixed by ED this mission is unplayable. Hopefully a fix in the future can restore this mission back to working condition. 本帖最后于2024年7月22日,由cfrag编辑
cfrag 发布于2024年8月10日 楼主 发布于2024年8月10日 Update 20240810 - Chinook and DCS patch-a-gogo After the somewhat unstable DCS updates from Jul-11 and Jul-22, yesterday saw the release of another DCS patch. I have added a lot of code hardening to CESAR's framework (DML), and hopefully CESAR is now back fully functioning. ED have made it difficult for me to test everything (and the Hook has been added without me being able to test it since it has not yet been released on Steam), so please bear with me, and report any strange occurrences here so I can fix them (e.g. misbehavior in dedicated server, still testing) Changes (summary) many, many fixes to protect against new DCS 'features' Location (nearest town) information for downed pilots Added 2 (hot) Hooks. Will add cold ones as soon as I can verify Hooks myself Enjoy, -ch 1
cfrag 发布于2024年8月11日 楼主 发布于2024年8月11日 Update 20240811 - COLD Hooks Verified Hook CSAR capability and added two cold Hooks
cfrag 发布于2024年9月26日 楼主 发布于2024年9月26日 Update 20240925 - Maintenance Update Version 1.53 More code hardening, some optimization for the beancounter "Scribe"
cfrag 发布于5月6日 楼主 发布于5月6日 Version 20250506 (workaround for show-stopping DCS bug, fog, some QoL) Changes in detail - hardening against multiple DCS bugs - work-around against show-stopping DCS bug - scribe update (better time tracking) - code base update - fog, fog menu And, whatever you do, DO NOT USE DCS' "SAVE MISSION" FEATURE. THAT WILL FUBAR THIS MISSION.
