rge75 Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Just curious - the "cargo got broken" text - this is "by design". Or in other words, no matter how "nice" you deploy the cargo, it will always break, right? I mean, the tank sotly kissed the ground for sure (I was watching out of the windows observing the tank when unhooking it) and the DCS engine didn't say anything like "Cargo damaged". So it's just a story element and it's not possible to drop it without damage?

ED Team Laivynas Posted September 6, 2017 ED Team Share Posted September 6, 2017 Should be possible. At least if nothing changed in DCS itself. Best Regards, Dmitry. "Чтобы дойти до цели, надо прежде всего идти." © О. Бальзак Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rge75 Posted September 6, 2017 Author Share Posted September 6, 2017 (edited) Oh, ok. DCS itself didn't give me a message that I damaged the cargo. But who knows, maybe it happened when I hooked the cargo and maybe I just oversaw the message at this time. Edit: I just checked my record from that mission. There was no "cargo dammaged" message (but some russian chatter). I was watching outside the window and the tank hit the bus - but I think the bus had no collision detection because the tank went through the bus. At least good to know that it should be possible. Thanks for the info. So I'll find out on my 2nd run with DCS 2.5. The good thing was that I was anyway able to finish the mission.

Redglyph Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 (edited) I landed the cargo softly without any collision or obstacle around with which it could have collided. The cargo looked intact, when it crashes in DCS there is a message, like you said, and the cargo looks destroyed. The score was 100, even though there was this mission message that the cargo was destroyed. So if that's not per design, it's an anomaly. I've also noted there was a pouring rain, but a nice blue sky with a few clouds, it's not really consistent nor convincing ;) Edited September 9, 2017 by Redglyph System specs: Win7 x64 | CPU: i7-4770K | RAM: 16 GB | GPU: GTX 980 Ti 6 GB | Thrustmaster HOTAS | MFG rudder pedals | SATA3 SSD | TrackIR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rge75 Posted September 9, 2017 Author Share Posted September 9, 2017 Let's face it...sling load is simply f***ed up in several ways since 1.5.7...:-/ It will be even worse in mission 8 when the altitude meter goes crazy (I reported that in the DCS 1.5 bugs and problems section).

Raven (Elysian Angel) Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 I just did this mission earlier today.

JanRalle Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 I know got the opposite, sat the cargo softly down and it exploded. But no audio file, mission did also not proceed after landing at the oil rig [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
