[Gazelle] Don Rudi's missions for the Gazelle

Hi everyone,

I created a couple missions for the Gazelle and would like to use this thread as place for your feedback, suggestions and criticism.

Operation Zora (Seek and destroy a pair of GRAD launchers in a city)

http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/1962994/

Operation Kingpin (Precision strike from sea)

http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/1963357/

Operation Hitchhiker (Gazelle vs Buk while covering a CSAR operation)

http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/1978035/

Operation Tidy Hill (SAMs, tanks and something else...) - Normandy map

https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3021955/

Operation Muzzlebrake (Silence the enemy artillery)

https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3180331/

All missions have been updated to DCS 2.5 standard.

I am happy to hear your feedback - were the missions to easy or maybe to hard? Were they nonsense? Any suggestions and criticism are welcome.

Cheers Don Rudi aka Carsten

Don Rudi's missions for the Gazelle.

Hi Don. Thank you for your hard work in creating these missions. But i find i cannot get it to work. It does not show up in the missions folder or singles folder. I have tried it in Nevada and Caucuses. Any ideas where i'm going wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Sorry mate, I forgot to subscribe to my own thread and missed your question. Hope everything works now?

Great piece of work :thumbup:

Thanks mate :)

New missions are already in the making

Wow, not sure how I missed these the first time around... Thanks for doing these, Don, look forward to checking them out this weekend! S!

Mission Hitchhiker

Hello all, when reaching the new waypoint I hover about 1km from it. 1st I get a really hard time finding the Buk. Haven't succeed yet.

Secondly when I try to relocate in order to search again, the mission suddenly stops.

I watched the tackview and nothing kills me and nor I crash into the ground. Anyone have any idea what's the cause for this or how to fix it?

thanks

Thanks for the missions: I flew two of them and this is also a great way to appreciate the maps and trees.

Two small remarks:

Zora: the targets sit in a place with no buildings , contrary to the documents provided - map and screenshot

Muzzlebrake: seems there is no georgian skin ?

And I’m eagerly waiting for the following!

Hi, thanks for the feedback. Two possibilities - there is enemy artillery firing at the hill. I was "shot" down by it twice already (they fire long, into the woods behind you).

Another condition is the wellbeing of the downed crew on the ground. If it takes you very long, there might be enemy APCs on the other side of the river. Could it be they fired at your guys on the ground? Did the stats say that Red side won?

Hi, very good hint - thanks!

Zora was initially built for 1.5 and the city has changed quite noticeably in 2.5 (same for Kingpin).

Especially the new trees pose a problem, so I had to relocate the Grads slightly. I will recheck the positions and update the documents accordingly.

There is a Georgian skin in the file section, but iirc it is not listed as Gazelle skin, but as "other" skin. On my Machine I had to open the textures and save them again as DDS format again however.

Hello Don,

I checked again the tacview. the downed Gazelle crew is intact till the end. You have some triggers like "Gazelle destroyed" when entering the Boom 1 or 2 zones. Can this cause any problem?

I'm trying to send you a screen shot from the tac view.

Thanks for the missions, they are great.

Hi Philippos,

"Gazelle destroyed" is just the wreckage on the ground, that explodes when you come closer. I found this to be the only way, to still have a recognizable Gazelle body on the ground and not just shattered bits and pieces :)

I went through the triggers and found it. While adapting the mission from 1.5 to 2.5 I created a new trigger for red side wins. No idea what I was thinking about, but the conditions make no sense at all - I removed them now. The only other "End mission" action now is, when you are back at your FARP.

I attached the revised mission and also updated the resource in the file section. Thanks so much for pointing me at this problem :)

Cheers - Carsten

Glad to help.

I'm on the way to build a mission myself, hope it will be successful as yours.

Many thanks Don - really enjoyed - looking for more ;-)
