The Four Horsemen Campaign. In the 1st mission

[Trankiller]

Hi,

I bought AH-64D The Four Horsemen Campaign. In the 1st mission, I eliminated the target: the infantry group but the mission does not end I still have draw game as result.

I don't understand

I read somewhere in the campaign documents you have to return to base and land for the mission to log as completed. This may help.

You must land from where you took off

pfff 

Why is it so restrictive?

Why do we have to land where we were?

[Gunnar81]

If you've ever played around with the editor you'd know it involves controlling how the triggers are activated. Its just a parameter the designer chose to go with.

Because airfields and FOBs are controlled and you can't just land where you want. 

I've also ensured the last waypoint in the flight plan is on the exact spot you need to land on, to make player's life easy

You'll find there's traffic in and out as the campaign progresses, so there has to be regulated control of landing spots.

Because you've chosen to play a simulator?

The trigger must be working, as you are the only person reporting this issue. Lot's of others are past M1.

Jump to around 17 minutes and see what is done here:

Having watched your video i have questions:

1. Did you inform AWACs you were complete or Winchester?

2. Did you then get subsequent comms with AWACs?

3. Did you get chat between Dim and Foghorn about MacDonalds?

4. Did you get directed to switch to BATMAN Tower and then have directions from Batman of where to land?

 

Answering these will allow me to burrow down and work out why things aren't working for you

hi, i play this 1 mission 2 time: 2 time draw..perhaps i didnt land in the exaxtly position (only in base near..).

and i wouls use the gpg seat nera the enemy, i can swith the seat from pilot but i can use ther ai control (to stop or hover the ah-64). i can only call the Ai control when i am the pilot..is normal?

So the campaign is designed to fly as the backseat pilot. 

I honestly don't know if you can call up George from the front seat (check your key binds)

 

As was previously written, you need to land where the final waypoint is at the FOB

[giullep]

I binded the correct button to recall george ai like pilot, but in this mission (until now i tried only rhe first mix) i cant recall it and this isnt normal…in dcs i can normally recall it

in in front of the ch-47, in the fob..i need ti land more accurate (on the right of the ch-47??) no tollerance in the trigger?

1. Did you inform AWACs you were complete or Winchester?
 

I asked to AWACs for a picture But I didn't ask Winchester that I had finished the mission (
I didn't know I had to do this.On other campaigns there were triggers that detect this)

2. Did you then get subsequent comms with AWACs?
 

No, after no I have no communication with the AWACS

3. Did you get chat between Dim and Foghorn about MacDonalds?

As far as I remember, we haven't had a discussion about Ronald McDonald or the burgers we ate

4. Did you get directed to switch to BATMAN Tower and then have directions from Batman of where to land?

I talked to Batman but he didn't respond (Maybe I didn't light the Gotham City lamp)

Answering these will allow me to burrow down and work out why things aren't working for you

 

Thank you for your help and everything you do !

 

In the end it still doesn't work

Maybe it's because of the eject button 
that I use to exit the aircraft

I share the full video of the mission

Then that is a core DCS issue. Plus, as i say, i never built the campaign to allow that, so might be something i need to change, so i'll ask ED as well. Can you report it to the ED discord please, that you can't command George from the front seat.

 

As for landing, as i said to someone else, because the FOB is utilised by other helos, you need to land where the last waypoint is, to stop anyone landing on top of you. Be a shame to complete the mission, then have either UGLY 5-2 or someone else land on top of you, meaning you'd have to fly it again.

Did you try following the flight plan and fly through all the waypoints? If you miss waypoints, it might mess triggers(at least in some other campaigns, I haven't tried this one yet).

Finally I found out I had to talk to Winchester, strange but it works:

You needed to call either COMPLETE or WINCHESTER yes, as per the message that pops up as you begin your attack mate. Watch 21:28 in your video and you clearly see the message in the top right corner. Glad you bottomed out the issue

This is really strange because I already called to complete the mission.  It’s definitely a or in your message.  But now I still have to call Winchester to finish

OK, i'll double check my triggers to ensure it is an OR trigger. Thanks for your feedback

I just purchased the campaign and can't even start the first mission. I'm very upset. The two leading helicopters start their engines within two minutes and fly away. They don't even wait for the inertial navigation system to align. This requires an additional two to three minutes.

Inertial navigation system alignment is a mandatory requirement of pre-flight launch procedures. This cannot be ignored.

I put the campaign aside for now. I hope this little thing gets fixed.

They aren't part of your flight or mission

 

M1 is an orientation flight. Just you and Foghorn. It's all in the briefing

Thanks for the answer. Unfortunately, the mission briefing does not contain any information on how many helicopters are involved. Foghorn is my co-pilot.
