Tomsk Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Anybody able to do a light version of the F-18 dynamic over Caucasus (a version of the M-2000 light one), or can point me in the direction of changing the M2K one to make the F-18 the player aircraft? I don't have that, but I do have a script that does the same thing (improves the FPS). https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3525106&postcount=753 Also working on porting the M2K over Hormuz to the F/A-18C, for those interested in that.

Mesenzio Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Try this : https://www.dropbox.com/s/d9niwugd9bsyjym/SU-33%20over%20PG.zip?dl=0 I am not 100% sure, but it seems that my wingman does not attack the mission ground target (such as the E3 in the first mission). He acknowledges the command but it seems it's not bombing it. Also, I wanted to commend the cure you put in the briefings and settings, it makes a mission so much more interesting to fly than just having "fly to random target and boom it".

mcfleck Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 (edited) DCE Campaigns Hey guys, while flying the F18 over caucasus campaign I have noticed that the SEAD F18C usually does not do anything. They simply fly into the target area, circle and die either from the enemy SAM they were supposed to surpress or from enemy interceptors. I dug a little further and did some tests. The typical F18C SEAD is equipped with AGM 45 Shrikes and is tasked with a "search and engage" task without further limitations. This seems confuse the AI so that they will not attack anything. I usually end up losing both SEAD planes without any chance to save them. In order to do their task properly either the " search and engage" task has to be narrowed down a little (search for sam or the specific group) or you have to task them with an attack against the specific group directly (engage group "sam...", engage with "--ARM"). Another option is to let them start a SEAD task, but that can cause them to strike the wrong SAM if there are several of them in the area. Another point I have figured out: The IP and therefore the start of their SEAD task (whichever way works) is currently configured to be at the SAM's maximum engagement range radius. That can be quite late depending on the threat. Could the IP for sead planes rather be set atleast to the max tracking/detection range? The AI would have more time lining up their attack. I would also prefer to change the standard AI F18C SEAD loadout to HARMs instead of shrikes, but this is my personal preference and I can adjust it in the respective files by myself I think. Do I have to restart the campaign if I change the standard loadouts? Best regards and thanks alot to all who made a dynamic F18 campaign possible.

PB0_CEF Posted October 14, 2018 Author Share Posted October 14, 2018 New DCE campaign with the F/A-18C Hornet on the CVN-74 Stennis in the Persian Gulf (new SA-2 and Rapier SAMs). Find it on the first Post as usual :) [/url]All known Dynamic Campaign Engine Campaigns Last DCE news : Crisis in PG - Blue version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PB0_CEF Posted October 14, 2018 Author Share Posted October 14, 2018 Two new DCE campaigns with the Iranian Mig-29A Fulcrum or F-5E Tiger in the Persian Gulf. It will be a great challenge to win against F-15C, Mirage 2000C, F-16 and F/A-18C !

grant977 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 I downloaded hornet over the Gulf and I get a scripting error. I have tripled checked everything and the file path is corrected and soo is the scripted text doc mode via JGME application. The Mirage over the Gulf campaigne works perfectly. I do not understand.

PB0_CEF Posted October 15, 2018 Author Share Posted October 15, 2018 Is the Scripted text modified ? This window appears at the end of a mission ? If so it really seems to be a path or scripted file problem :huh: [/url]All known Dynamic Campaign Engine Campaigns Last DCE news : Crisis in PG - Blue version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PB0_CEF Posted October 15, 2018 Author Share Posted October 15, 2018 To be sure : did you put the "EN" folder in your "FA-18C/Missions" folder ? (It's exactly my folders structure and it works...)

grant977 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) Ill check again to make sure but I'm sure it's correct. So it's in the mods/F18c/missions/en Edited October 15, 2018 by grant977 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grant977 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) That’s exactly what I have and still get the error above. I don’t know what else to try. The mirage campaign works perfectly fine. I even tried to put hornet in the mirage folder as last ditch.

PB0_CEF Posted October 15, 2018 Author Share Posted October 15, 2018 Well it's really strange. Did you try to reinitialise the campaign (with the FirstMission.bat) Did it work ?

PB0_CEF Posted October 15, 2018 Author Share Posted October 15, 2018 Do you have exactly this modification in your "DCS World OpenBeta/Scripts/MissionScripting.lua" file : --Initialization script for the Mission lua Environment (SSE) dofile('Scripts/ScriptingSystem.lua') --Sanitize Mission Scripting environment --This makes unavailable some unsecure functions. --Mission downloaded from server to client may contain potentialy harmful lua code that may use these functions. --You can remove the code below and make availble these functions at your own risk. local function sanitizeModule(name) _G[name] = nil package.loaded[name] = nil end do -- sanitizeModule('os') -- sanitizeModule('io') sanitizeModule('lfs') require = nil loadlib = nil end ???
