Executioner Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 ohh ohh... thx for this hint... i actually find under the mentioned path every misson and campaign... but why do they not show up ingame??? Have you tried selecting the drop-down inside "Mission" - the one marked "Drive" ? Go to "Mission" from the main menu. There are several options inside the mission area - "Drive" being the dropdown in the top right. There will be a list here, apart from any real drives you own. By selecting "Ka50", for instance, you will be taken to the original install path for the missions you are looking for - then simply select "Single" and you should see all the original missions :) Martin...
joey45 Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 When i try to install, i get the message 'black shark 1 must be installed'. Could someone please tell me in what sequence i have to install my software. I'm licensed for A10 and KA50 upgrade. Please direct me to the links to download the software. I will then download everything again, uninstall my software and start with a clean sheet. Thanks in advance. Install BS1 > DCS:World > BS2 upgrade for World > A-10C > CA > Mig-21 > Jagu.......... I think The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

If you don't have it - you will need to install it (HERE) Run BS1 once all the way through to a mission, to activate it (if you haven't already). Remove your current DCS World install if you have one (or move it out of the way/rename the install folder). Install DCS World v1.2.0 (HERE) Install DCS A10C v1.2.0 Module (HERE) Install DCS BS2 v1.2.0 UPGRADE Module (HERE) Play - a lot! :) Martin...

Why don't making the keys work for BS2 when you bought BS1 and the upgrade.

ShuRugal Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 downloaded and installed the patch, but there are no missions for the shark included! i'm not getting any option for black-shark campaigns, only A-10 and SU-25. When i go to single missions, i also only have missions for the A-10 and SU-25. am i missing a download here?

I cant find any campaigns too :/ Guess Ill have to play with the standalone BS2 until someone finds a fix for this.

ShuRugal Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 missions are present in folder specified. Also, i just joined a multiplayer game, i could enter SU-25 or A-10, but not the Shark.
Nate--IRL-- Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 Just to be clear ... You've downloaded and installed DCS:World 1.2.0 and You've downloaded and installed DCS:Black Shark 1.2.0 (Which Version?) Nate Ka-50 AutoPilot/stabilisation system description and operation by IvanK- Essential Reading

Nate 1: yes 2: yes, upgrade version, this one: http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/index.php?scr=product&ProductId=13&end_pos=136&lang=en I have a menu set in the config for KA-50, and the KA-50 icon now matches the SU-25 and A-10 icons.
Nate--IRL-- Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 OK cool - what happens if you create a quick mission with a player Ka-50? Nate Ka-50 AutoPilot/stabilisation system description and operation by IvanK- Essential Reading
ShuRugal Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 (edited) i'll let ya know in 5 minutes: If i click instant-action, my only options are A-10 and SU-25. If i click "create fast mission" i have KA-50, SU-25, and A-10 as options. I select KA-50, it generates a mission, i enter the mission, and the mission starts with the camera following an SU-17. Using f2, i checked all other aircraft on map, and there were no KA-50s to be found. Edited July 10, 2012 by ShuRugal
Ich666 Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 Nate, in DCS World\Mods\aircrafts\Ka-50\Missions\EN\Campaigns there are all the missions for the respective campaigns. They just dont show up ingame.

I have a suspicion that Black shark is not installed, or at least not installed in the correct directory.

Robski Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 Hi Guys, lovin' your work!!! Are there plans to free us "upgraders" from the hassle of having to install ostensibly obsolete software???? Given the whole coming together thing that's happening, wouldn't now have been a good time?? Is the upgrade version fundamentally different??? Why not let us trade activation codes so we're all on the same version - got to be better for you guys.
metalnwood Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 The moral of the story in the future is just eat the extra few $$ and don't buy an upgrade. If I could get a refund and pay the difference for the full version I would do it instantly, the hassle is too great.
ShuRugal Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 created a mission with 1 KA-50, skill level set to "client" and one AI-controlled wingman. Upon starting mission, the wingman was present, but the client-controlled helicopter was absent, and camera was in spectate mode. EDIT: is there a chat client we can use to hash this out further? web fora are not the ideal medium for live tech support.

Still, all the same I can't see the benefit to ED having us running in parallel. It's not like it's even a different product!!!! So you reckon they're just hoping we get fed up enough to just belly up the cash???!!! ; ) Works out to be quite an expensive module!!!!!
