DAWS Package for DCS World - discussion and bug report

Need more testing but DAWS Package is working fine in DCS World 2.5 here. Just use the DCS.OpenBeta\Saved Games\ folder for all files except the MissionScripting.lua, that needs to be edited on main DCS scripts folder.

EDIT: But we need to run MOOSE in mission to really get a good combat environment. And CTLD of course.

I run a test now on a mission that uses MOOSE and it seems to be working fine. At least the DAWS saves mission file. Can someone explain what the problem should be with a MOOSE made mission and DAWS?

Copy. I made a test now running a MOOSE and CTLD scripted mission and it seams that the scripts does not load in the DAWS saved mission. Was that the problem folks had before? As far as I can see all the scripts is in the mission file. I will continue to investigate ;) I don't expect any help from you chromium, take care of your self m8. I just unload my findings here :)

Done two more tests with some changed script options but neither MOOSE or CTLD scripts loads on the new saved mission. It does seem like the scripts are there and the file size in increased so ... I will look at the mission itself now and run a compare to see what's missing.

consider that DAWS will replace any missionscripting.lua file with its one at any mission start. Also, MIST does not have to be loaded.

Said so, I will investigate as soon as possibile... but don't expect very soon updates, as said I need some time to rebuild my daily life.

I have investigated and it seams the recreation of tables fails. Images with original file to the left and the recreated file from DAWS to the right.

From mission file:

From dictionary file:

Hi guys, I've now installed the script, but in the Special Page, there is the DAWS voice but if I click on it, on the right the windows is empty. Anyone has this problem? Tks!

The problem is that I don't have free time to update the script in those months, due to personal and professional reasons. I hope to get it up before the summer.

Ah ok...so you confirm that, for now, this mod is officially not compatible with 2.5?

I think it's not compatible at 99.99 %. Never tested, I don't even remember if I released the internal built compatible with 2.5 testing version.

Ok, If you had released the compatible internal version, and you wanted to give it to me, I'd be happy to test and report to you. Bye!

+1

I'd love to test that for you as well. I'd love to have this mod so I can have data saved every time the server crashes/restarts. Which makes me wonder what mod/script Ciribob uses for his BlueFlag...

S!

It looks like the mod is completely incompatible with the current relaese version of DCS 2.5. I'm using JSGME and I see no DAWS Package tab under "Special" in the "Game's Options" section. Anyone else?

It wont' be compatible till I will have sufficient time to rework it. And it's not going to happen shortly... I believe :(

Sad to hear... I'll wait then :thumbup:

Updated with working version for 2.5.2 for testing: I need your feedback

https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=192588&highlight=DAWS

PLEASE, IMPORTANT NOTE

The main DCS folder (the one in C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics) MUST BE NOT PROTECTED FOR WRITING.

Else you will get a generic error message in the dcs.log and DAWS simply won't work.

PS

scenery object persistence is working, so now if you kill a bridge.. the bridge stay killed in the saved files if you check the option ;)

Great news!! I'll get it installed and test it out later tonight.

Thanks! Really good to use for those long missions.

Testing right away :thumbup:

EDIT:

Just downloaded the package, unzipped it, put the uzipped folder among other JSGME folders and had the mod activated in DCS 2.5.0.15365 ---> No DAWS Package to be seen in the options menu.

Testing right away :thumbup:

first: use openbeta 2.5.2.

second: check install folder... is it in the Saved Games folder? No current mod is to be installed into main folder.

third: check if your unzipped package contain a DAWS main folder itself...

DAWS 2.5.x is for DCS World 2.5.x... not for DCS 1.5

For 1.5.7 you should check here:

1.5.8, they're not supported.

Testing right away :thumbup:
