Hillman Posted June 6 Posted June 6 Hi Sandman, Just completed M1 and M2 and I must say this is realy excellent so far. I loved the intro sequence, music and the voiced briefings. I also like flying as #4 despite the rather eratic AI behaviour. Makes a nice change from alway being lead. The judgement from lead in M1 was quite strict, but fair. Some ideas for improvements; Would be nice if the campaign automatically detected when you tuned to the right radio freq. And also it would be nice if you could, instead of pressing spacebar, you could flip a switch. Baltic Dragon implemented both these in his latest campaigns and it is very helpeful for the imersion and flow. Looking forward to continue with the campaign. Also enjoyed your excellent Sandworm campaign btw.

After playing the Arctic Thunder campaign, I’ve been planning to implement this innovative idea into my own campaigns. It’s a task that involves testing and will take some months to complete, so I haven’t had the chance to do it yet, but I believe it will happen at some point. 1
Hillman Posted September 12 Author Posted September 12 Also look into if you can disable afterburner use for lead until the time of actual combat. I recently watched a youtube from Spudnocker explaining this feature in the ME.

I recently watched a youtube from Spudnocker explaining this feature in the ME. Good point. That was my plan at the first place. Unfortunately at the time of making the campaign the feature wasn't working fluently so I had to leave it. It might be worth of trying but will need quite a lot of work and testing as there are lots of timing based triggers. 1
Pyrocumulous Posted October 22 Posted October 22 I concur with all, beautiful start to the campaign! Would be awesome to be able to program AIs to not use burners or the speedbrake. Just minor point on Intro 2, the datalink does not appear to be working within the flight. Also, not at all important to this mission, but Lion 1-2 and Lion 1-3 do not have a 9X as briefed. 1 Warthog HOTAS, VMAX Prime Throttle, TPR pedals, Kensington Slimblade Pro, Pimax Crystal, RTX 4090 FE, Asus ProArt X670E-Creator, Ryzen 7950X3D, 64gb DDR5.

Should be out in the next update. I'll take a look what's the problem with data link and AIM-9

At the moment I have no idea why the datalink is not working in this mission as settings are same as in all the other missions. Trying to find reason for that.
Pyrocumulous Posted October 23 Posted October 23 It may have been operator error; I'm just relearning the hornet to fly a fresh batch of campaigns. I didn't check datalink freq or anything, as it really doesn't matter for this mission.

Anyway no need in this mission but if I'll find the cause I'll fix it of course. 1
