NEW MISSION: Carbon Blade

[IADC]

Carbon Blade will get get posted in the A10C Sticky missions post this Wednesday.

 

As always I would appreciate feedback on bugs or problems people have so they can be fixed and then the mission re released.

 

As with the mission Smoke that Thunders there is a lot of radio chatter so keep your ears open and follow Instructions. Attached is the mission brief.

Having flown this mission with IADC several times I can testify that its a great 2/3 player mission. He has truly put a lot of work into it & the radio transmissions are very immersive.

 

If you download it and like it, let him know (its only polite, especially knowing it can take countless hours to build a good mission!).

Ran this with a few friends last night. Fun mission. We had an issue where there was some talk-over between various sound files when the final vehicle at the target area was destroyed, the exfil dialogue for the ground forces played over the FAC and the pilot's dialogue. Odds are it was just an issue of timing on our part, but you may want to look in to trying to add a pause between the period where each sound file plays.

 

I am a great fan of your missions. :thumbup:

Its in A10c sticky missions

Just raen through this one last night... there were 4 of us so I added slots and decreased payload... (2xAGM-65D, 2xGBU-12, 2xGBU-38, 1xM151 launcher, maybe better to set this last to M156 WP).

 

It was an interesting mission but:

 

- text should be displayed with sound messages as it is pretty hard to understand all comms with the Hawg engines rumbling

 

- there is mention of Mi-24 Hinds threat but there are none

 

- we didn't get to call the Apache's as it is not mentioned in any point that their support is available...

 

We finished the mission intact but were left longing for a twist or two more in the storyline...

 

Great work IADC!!! Keep em coming... :thumbup:

[IADC]

Aries, thank you very much for your post. I will send the 3.8 version of smoke that thunders to you later today but to address the Carbon Blade mission please see the following.

What i will do is put text in where the radio messages contain important data only. Most of the comms are (For Effect) to enhance the mission ambience only. But good suggestion and I will address it.

Sorry about the Mi24 hinds and the Apache support. These are in the mission brief and I forgot to take them out as they are still in the build for the updated version. The Mi24 twist will be included in my next release version 1.2. The same goes for the Apache AH64 units, what I am trying to do with these is have them available in the event the lead flight finds there is to much to deal with or not enough players to kill all the targets. I just have to be careful on how he is implemented or they may come in and ruin the mission by killing everything around them. Let me work on this and again they will be 1.2

You said you played it with 4 players, the mission was originally designed for 2 only but I added three aircraft. What I am going to do is add a series of scenarios that will only be triggered if the game detects more than 2, more than 3 aircraft on start up. I will also add an extra twist to the mission just for you guys. Hope to have it out by next week end for you.

Cheers

DL the mission. Once in the cockpit, the mission clock reads 5:45 (not 5:30) Also, shortly after takeoff, I get an abort abort abort call. I'm using the latest version of DCS world.....I'm also new to DCS so not sure if I'm doing something wrong.

 

Thanks for the mission.

[IADC]

Deconjb I will take a look, not sure what that abort abort abort is, some times triggers just go off on their own. As for the time, I adjusted the time by 15 mins to provide more day light to the mission but obviously did not adjust the brief. I will look at the mission again this afternoon.

[ralgha]

Just did this mission with a friend. Fun stuff! Great comms and a good level of challenge for us. Took a few tries to achieve success and even then, one of us got shot down while the other successfully completed the mission. The timing seems to leave less margin for error than other missions I've experienced but it's certainly doable. I messed up a run trying to put those MK-82's to good use (yeah I'm bad) and didn't have time to fix it before it was too late. So next time I just used a GBU-12. We'll be trying this one again in the future.

 

By the way, great JTAC positioning, LOL!

[Dachs]

This seems like another really cool and immersive mission, however I have a bit of a problem running it.

Both Smoke that Thunders and Carbon Blade makes my Helios setup go nuts at mission start. Inverter switch, Radio switches and all other kind of stuff switches itself off/on continuosly and pretty much incapacitates my bird.

Do you do anything in the mission file that touches the cockpit setup at mission start by chance? Reason I'm asking is I haven't seen this in any other missions. I'm running DCSW v. 7286 btw.

[IADC]

Mmmm no idea on that one. If you tell me where you want to have the helo fly from let me see if i can add them into the mission and then re relese it.

[Druid_]

He's talking about Helios not helo's. Helios is the touchscreen add-on software for DCS (bit like Hawgtouch).

Ahhhhhhhhhh right no idea then, and no i have not preset anything whatsoever

[Dachs]

Ok, sorry for the confusion. It's still a bit weird though, but I've found out if I start Helios after the cockpit is loaded all is good.

I flew Carbon Blade last night, but I'll have to give it a go again today. I got nailed near the end, while doing a gun run.

Thanks for making these missions, all the comms makes them very immersive i think. And it's a nice touch with the operators having different signal strength and noise, it really makes you pay attention to the radios.

[IADC]

Hi Dachs, yeah sorry my goof, was reading your post with out my glasses on and after a few beers, some reason I convinced myself you were talking about Helo's and thats probably because I was trying to DL BS2 about 30 minutes before hand.
