Did you load the last Hornet over PG version ? (V5)

You shouldn’t have anti ship mission anymore ?!?

Yes, V5. So far, I only had anti-ship missions. The first mission was to destroy 3 cargo ships in a harbour.

V5 disabled the anti ship mission. Make sure you delete all files from the previous version and then install V5. Last time in installed v5 over v5 i also still had ant-ship mission and the Agm65g loadouts. Which basicly means its still version 4. I deleted all maps and reinstalled v5 and then it worked

Question. Does the Hornet over PG campaign use the dynamic weather? I know the climate in the gulf is very hot. But i noticed i never ever get any clouds or anything. Its like the weather is allways the same. Surely even the Gulf seems Some clouds from time to time?

Well, I firstly used the Mbot's Nevada meteo settings because I'm not really sure how the settings work. You can try to change the weather settings :

weather = { --campaign weather

pHigh = 100, --probability of high pressure weather system

pLow = 0, --probability of low pressure weather system

refTemp = 38, --average day max temperature

},

 

 

in the camp_init.lua file in the Init folder :thumbup:

I usually generate a mission with the DCE. Then open the ongoing mission with the editor and set the weather to dynamic and then start the mission. Thats the Nice thing about how the DCE is Set up. Because the missions are pre generated it allows you to tailor the mission to your own wishes untill the next mission is generated. It makes it very dynamic, and setting the weather Is just a matter click and save in the generator...

Hello! I've currently got a problem with the DCE in hornet over Caucasus and Persian Gulf. I play the dynamic campaign with 4 people but after I switch to the ongoing mission file the campaign doesn't load past an attack on the SA-3 101 site. I'd appreciate any help so I can actually fly this campaign with my friends.

A little feedback on the Hornet over Persian Gulf:

 

First of all love the campaign overall, really nice to get to fly the hornet on a carrier in the gulf map, totally awesome.

 

The only complaint I have is that Iran doesn't seem to put up much of a fight, especially in terms of aircraft. Pretty much every strike mission goes totally unopposed, even those that are directly over the Iranian airbases. I've checked the 'oob_air.lua' in the 'Status' folder, and they've hardly lost any aircraft, so they have tonnes left, they just don't seem to be launching any of them.

 

I remember it was very different in the Desert Mirage 86 campaign (which I also loved), as there you were being constantly scrambled on. If there is some setting I can change somewhere to make the AI schedule more intercepts and CAPs and such like, I'm happy to change it myself.

My main problem with PG theater is the lack of usable Iranian airbases :(

 

I think that it's really difficult to have enough planes in squadrons to allow DCE to find enough planes to prepare lot of Intercept missions. It's possible too that US CAP are too efficient and kill all interceptors ...

I will try to look at this problem as soon as possible.

 

You can try to look at db_loadouts.lua file and change "sortie rate" for all iranian planes in intercept loadouts...

 

Please tell me if it changes something for you

For Some reason in the Hornet over PG i only get cap & escort missions. In the beginning i still got strike & cas missions. But i dont seem to get then anymore. I never restarted the campaign, but maybe the f-18 update broke something?

Hi

 

same Problem here only Cap and Escort Mission!

first three or four missions were normal!

 

Missions with the F 117 usually do not work either

 

The F117 turns in the middle of the flight plan

around and fly home and the F16 never hit ground targets

 

Sorry for my very bad english!

Sometime DCS updates break DCE but sometime I make errors too :music_whistling:

 

My last error was when I made my own Hornet over Caucasus -CVN version : I forgot that the changes made to allow carrier operations specified that Airbases ID over 20 will be considered as carriers ... I had lots of bugs :music_whistling:

It took me 2 days to discover this simple mistake :doh:

It seems that last DCS update changed air to ground AI management ....

Yeah I noticed. Before you could tell your wing to “Engage Mission Target and Rejoin” and they would normally then deploy their ordnance onto the area specified by their waypoints. Sadly now upon receiving this instruction they just fly off somewhere else completely random and do nothing useful. Takes a long time to kill all the ground targets when you have to bomb them all yourself ...

So after 25+ Dedicated campaign missions i need to once again restart the campaign?

No I don't think so :)

There are not any big changes in DCE files yet. Look at the oob_air.lua file in your Status folder (all files in it are relatives to the campaign you are flying) to see if FA-18C squadron missions are Strike, CAP, Sweep, Escort = true. If not change it there. Antiship strikes are not working with AI so I disabled it for FA-18C. Then you can use Skipmission.bat and see if you have strikes missions (I have some :thumbup: ).

Ai sometimes attack targets with Mav or Bombs ... wait IP waypoint to order them to attack target and rejoin (or RTB) It seems more difficult for them to attack by night (can't see target ? )

 

In Mission planner I change Target waypoint altitude to 0 ft (it adapts to real altitude) may be it helps AI to find target ?

I made a Hornet over Caucasus - CVN campaign with a second CVN for Tomcats to be ready for its coming :thumbup: (They only have CAP missions now because AI Tomcats are unable to take off from CV :( ). Enemy fighters are really more aggressives than in PG campaign :music_whistling:

 

If someone is interested ...

New DCE campaign :) :

Hornet over Caucasus-CVN : You will take off and land on CVN-74 Stennis.

 

Part of readme.txt :

 

 

Specification for starting mission on the CVN Stennis deck : don't ask for taxi :

 

-2 FA-18C on deck or a 4 F-18 mission : when you are ready, move quickly to the rear of the CV deck before wingmen move. After that let them move to their launch place then you can can move to the right front catapult

-4 FA-18C on the deck but only a 2 FA-18C mission : Move to the left front catapult directly, Number 2 will use the left back catapult...

 

IMPORTANT NOTE : You will need US Navy Deck Equipment Mod that you will find here : https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3301580/?sphrase_id=14748274

New versions for both Hornet campaigns :

V2 for Caucasus

V6 for Persian Gulf

 

 

 

* SEAD mission added for Hornet

 

* Permanent use of "US Navy Deck Equipment Mod" that you will find here : https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3301580/?sphrase_id=14748274

* In Caucasus campaign : Change CVN Carl Vinson radio frequency (127.6) to be different fron CVN Stennis for landing purpose : No response = bad CVN Choice on the radio list

 

 

(I confirm that air to ground missions are still there for Hornet in both campaign :thumbup: )
