Hideout - Start to Finish

[RodBorza]

Hideout mission - Start to Finish - uncut.

A very cool and relatively easy mission where you have to coordinate attacks with a Kiowa Warrior reconassaince helicopter acting as FAC to prepare the way for the insertion of Special Forces in BlackHawks. The SOF will enter the area as soon as you clear the way, will inspect the bunkers for terrorist material, and then will return to base.

 

Eight parts of 15 minutes, because the nice people on You Tube doesn't allow more time for my account.

 

Part 01- Aircraft Start-up and taxiing

Part 02 -Take-off and getting to target area

Part 03 - Rendez-vous with special forces and start of attack on enemy positions

Part 04 - Continuing attack

Part 05 - Ending of attack and return to base

Part 06 - Return to base and inbound for landing

Part 07 - Landing, taxiing and start of shutdown procedure

Part 08 - Final of shutdown procedure and mission end.

 

Leave comments on. Hope you all enjoy!

 

P.S.: Constructive criticism is always welcome. The objective is to exchange information and learn everyday on this amazing sim.

Thanks, RodBorza, for the video walkthrough. I created a guide for the Hideout mission - it can be found here.

Hey, glad you liked it.

I'm planning to post more mission videos there. It is always good to exchange info by doing that. (right now, i'm learning how to strafe tanks by watching some other guys videos.)

 

And nice walktrough you got there. We need more guides like that. (the fence in radio chatter gets a little bit confusing coordinating action with the Kiowa and the SEAD flight. Your guide helps in clarifying that.):thumbup:

How do you snap to the radio panel like that?

In all ED sims it's works by holding Numpad 0 and banging all the other numpad number keys like crazy :)

It's what Bucic said. Hold Numpad 0 + 1 for Left Console. Plus 3 for right console (CDU and lights). Plus 7 and 9 for left and right MFCD, respectively.

The SnapViews in 1.1.0.9 are MFCDs on 4 and 6. 7 and 9 are "look at the pretty clouds" views.

 

You should also remap SnapView toggle from Rctrl-Numpad0 to just Numpad0. That way you can hit 0 on the Numpad to lock into the SnapView mode, then hit 4 or 2 or 6 or 1 or whatever to view what you want. Then hit 0 again to get out of SnapView mode. No holding 0+1 and trying to type other things anymore.

Ok! Thanks for the info. Really hadn't tried that in 1.1.0.9.

excellent vid and walkthrough. I've been having issues with the yankee base mission and following some of your procedures here should help me a lot. Thanks for taking the time to put this up.

Evil. Bonsai,

Glad you enjoyed. I tried to do the same with the Defend Yankee Base Mission but didn't get too far. The problem is because that mission has some bugs. The other A-10 flight will get there a litle bit earlier than you, and then they will engage all the targets they have in range, including the ones that the JTAC will tell you to engage. That mission works well sometimes, and other times it's real boring because JTAC won't tell you to attack anything, OR the target will already be destroyed. Well, I wish you good luck on finishing that. When it works well, it gives you a really good feeling of helping the guys in the ground.

 

P.S.:You may make a search on the mission dedicated forums and see if somebody did some work to make that mission work properly.
