Mission 08 - strange behavior, Mission 09 - Kneeboard error

[vvizard]

Kneeboard error in mission 09 "Shebaa Farms". Kneeboard says 51.2 MHz, it should be 52.1 MHz.

 

Also, I attached a screenshot from my list of flown missions. But I have no idea if this is a bug in the campaign, or a bug in DCS itself (or something completely different). I finished Mission 08 "Escort". As far as I can tell, according to the intention. Landed the bird, got the "mission complete" screen, and ended the mission. But still, the next mission was mission 08 once again, instead of mission 09. I don't know why. But I flew mission 08 once more, same procedure as last time, and when finished for the second time, mission 09 arrived. No idea why that happened, or who's to blame. Just reporting it here, in case it's a problem with the campaign that should be looked into, or in case others run into the same issue.

Hey, thank you for reportig. You are already Mission 10, wow. 

- Kneeboard wrong frequency, I will take care about it. 
- The other point is strange, no idea what this is, I will also take a look. I can see in your screenshot there is no mission 7?

Didn't pay much attention to mission 07 missing. I assumed the numbering probably got screwed up by the double mission 08 or something. But should there have been a mission between the mission called "heavy load" and the one called "escort"?

HI,

I think Mission 7 is missing, as it is not in the campaign directory. There is a "Peacekeeper Lebanon - Briefing - 07.pdf" in the Doc directory, but there seems to be no *.miz file.

I'm only on to mission 3, but good fun so far.
Cheers, Flo

Yes, I can confirm. Seems i screwed sth up with the last minute changes I made before release. Mission 7 is missing and Mission 8 comes 2 times instead of mission 7. 
But Mission 7 is no flying mission it is a 2-3 minutes cutscene.

Workaround: Once Mission 8 is completed, skip the second Mission 8 in the campaign menu. 

Fixed on my end.

I am really sorry for that, my fault not DCS. 

For everyone who can't wait for the next patch, here you can find a recording of the cutscene here:

The second workaround is to play the eighth mission twice so you don't lose your Mission Succes Rate.
