Operation Bactria (MP COOP 14), Afghanistan CAS


Recommended Posts

Those are some fantastic screenshots Talon-X- thank you very much for sharing.

 

I have just figured out how to edit the mission file entry in the user files section, so the download link may be temporarily offline. If you are having issues downloading, it should be resolved in a few hours. I added a thumbnail for easier identification as well as more detailed information about the mission.

Really nice mission. Evolved enormously since Version 1. I tried Tusk flight today and must say, a job well done. Immersion, believable tasking, not simply kill-this-bomb-that, but diverse tasks and limiting factors that gives a good adrenaline rush.

Thanks for that brilliant work, and nice voice-overs! :notworthy::notworthy::notworthy::notworthy::notworthy:

One of the most immersive mission I´ve ever played. Feels so real and all the voice overs are like *porn* for the ears! :thumbup:

 

A big thank to all you guys that made this awesome mission possible :worthy:

 

Cheers!

Habu... i just played this for the first time and have to say this is one of the finest missions ever. Please do continue to add new tasks and grow this thing - the replayability is quite high.

 

very well done.

This mission is amazing, and my buddy and I have been logging some long flight hours, but lately we've been wanting more. After we complete a couple taskings from Chalice we're cleared to RTB, but we want to keep rolling. Is there any way we can edit the mission file to make it such that Chalice keeps giving us mission taskings?

Hi XtraChris,

 

If you want to add more taskings per flight, you can edit the "flightname"MissionComplete trigger for any of the flights and make the condition for Flag 13 (Hawg), 23 (Pig), 33 (Boar), or 43 (Tusk) = to 4 (four taskings), 5 (five taskings), or even 6 (six taskings). I'm away from my main PC so this is all from memory, but I'm sure that is all you need to do.

 

@Everyone,

 

Sorry for the long delay, but I will be releasing an unofficial single player version sometime in May so stay tuned. I'm sure most of the singleplayer enthusiasts have already modified the mission to suit their needs, but I will nonetheless release a SP version so that it streamlines and unifies the conversion.

Which mission parameters can be changed so that the triggers work correctly? I have been having trouble with chalice not giving me any tasks when i am around IPs. I have modified the time, weather ,bases from which the flights start and the planes countries and skins.

Thanks Ranger79!

 

@xatu_miller, when you changed the A-10's countries and skins i'm 100% sure you broke the mission because the triggers rely on such factions for it to work properly. If you absolutely must use custom skins, you can do so but make sure it is accessible for the following countries:

 

Hawg (U.S.)

Pig (U.K.)

Boar (Belgium)

Tusk (Germany)

 

I would recommend re-downloading the mission and starting from scratch, after which you can change the skins but not the countries.

Since the latest Update (1.2.4.11855), all Planes have their Engines running at Mission Start, including the ambient Vehicles like the parked C-130´s.

 

Any Idea what to do in the Unit´s Field to let their Engines stay at Idle (Sorry, but my knowledge about Mission Editing is really small)?

I haven't been able to fly Bactria since 1.2.4 was released but this development is frightening to say the least. Please keep me informed if you detect any more bugs or broken functionality.

 

To make it so that the planes start from the ramp (as intended), click on the unit and look on the right side menu for something that says "Takeoff from Runway" or "Start From Ramp". All of these units should say they are starting from the ramp, and if they are not, just switch it back. If this still doesn't work, "reset" the field to "start from ramp" and it should fix it. I won't be available to look into Bactria until two weekends from now, so please keep me informed.

I had a play for the first time with this mission today on my own using the multiplayer version. I was flying the Hawg mission.

 

When I got to the IP i got my tasking to help take out enemies troops ambushing friendlies.

After I was out of gun ammo I started to head back to the IP in the hope id get another tasking from the awacs but this wasnt the case, so I returned to the target area and all troops friendly and enemy had disappeared.

 

How do I go about getting a new tasking in the above situation?

 

Thanks and from what I played it looks like a great mission that i'll spend many hours playing.

Thanks for letting us know your issue. The mission will generate new tasking only when the existing tasking that you were given is completed. Its likely that the troops did not disappear per say, but rather they simply got lost in the trees and were very difficult to find. I would try and be as efficient as possible with the gun and mix your attack runs with rockets as well. The GBU's are also the most effective way to suppress the infantry contacts. If you ever run out of ammo, its best to simply RTB and load up the mission unless you can PID the target with a markpoint. Smoke markers will only last for roughly 15 minutes after the beginning of tasking.

After spending a few days to learn the basics of my shiny new Warthog I tried this mission (mp version as sp) a few times yesterday and today, and it's just awesome. Extremely immersive with all those voice overs, that ambushed infantry unit gave me goosebumps !

 

Today I even managed to complete two assignments with pig flight and return home without a single round of ammo but also without a single scratch ! I had to use a maverick when the ambushed convoy took fire from the other side of the road too since I was out of gun ammo and rockets and everything else , thank god it took out all the bad guys :)

 

Anyways, absolutely great mission, thank you very very much ! :thumbup:

Hopefully no issues with 1.2.5.

This is my frist choice mission for MP flights.

 

Very well done.

I hope you continue updating as needed.

 

All the best!!

Thank you all for your kind comments. Please inform me if anything doesn't seem to work properly. Throughout most of the year I spend a sad amount of time away from my main PC and patch-checking for the mission is sometimes not an option. Again, please keep me informed and I appreciate all feedback.
