I can see the campaign from the “my campaigns” tab within the user interface but clicking “ok” does not prompt the campaign itself to start.

Mission 1 plays in the Marianas Terrain - do you have that installed? It's free, so if you don't have it yet, just install it and give it another try.

Yes, that could be it too. Someone else had a similar problem once. I've just corrected the description in the User files.

Hi guys,   got an issue in Mission 3 ... After spotting the two SUVs with the 3 soldiers next to it and reporting their position the 3 soldiers head towards the cars... one makes it in but the two others just get stuck next to the other car ...  The mission cannot proceed from here.    Retried 3 times already and it takes a while to get there so frustrated and seeking help...  can just try the same again and again and expect a different result       I have followed the waypoints dutifully, I spot from wpt4 1000ft AGL....  Lost here

Two vehicles should be moving together, and you should be following them at a certain distance. Isn't that what's happening?

No.   Two of the 3 soldiers move to the vehicle on the Eastern side but do not get in and the vehicles never move.  
I have already experienced this in someone's else custom mission with soldiers failing to embark on a helicopter and the helicopter leaving without them... Dumb AI

Something might have happened after the last patch. I'll have to check it out because this option 100% worked here. Also, it's worth disabling any other mods. Sometimes they can break things when it comes to the AI too. Try again, and if there's a problem, just "skip" the mission.

According to the editor, the radio frequency in the link is 116,500. Try to change the frequency in flight.

Freq or channels you have in the kneeboard too. You can check it during the flight.

Same problem here . No mods, still vehicles never move.
The first 2 missions were really great, looking forward to fly the rest of the campaign.

Since you're the second person, I'll check it out this week. Maybe there really is some kind of "embarking" bug right now. I'll have to check. The vehicles should move and the stopped people should disappear. Of course, their correct position must be reported by F10 radio beforehand, as per the mission's progress. Otherwise, they won't move, but I assume that was done correctly, right?

It's also good to include a track if its possible (for bigger file use this: https://www.sendspace.com/).
