Niehorst Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 I just tried this old one with the Hind and had a very exciting offensive CAS. In fact it was more "CAS" than ever before with this ugly beast. no hovering and scanning for targets but going in circle by circle and throwing ATGM's at those T72's while our comrades T80's advanced on their position right under me.

sublime Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 I have the ka50 and it never was a helo I liked for whatever reason. My point being I should have the stock campaigns. How did you convert G Oil War? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeastyBaiter Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 It occurred to me to try this as well. How'd you convert it? I've built a fair few missions but never bothered with the campaign side of things.

Dave317 Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 I've converted the ka50 deployment campaign. Need to do a bit more testing before I upload it though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niehorst Posted June 26, 2021 Author Share Posted June 26, 2021 Guys, it's so easy... First of all I copied the KA-50 campaign folder to the Mi-24 mission Folder. Start the campaign and in briefing open the flight planner. There you can see the filename of the first mission in the lower left corner.. Some time ago the ME opened the last loaded mission automatically. Now you have to do it like this. Go to the mission editor and open that file. Look for your player flight and change it to Mi-24P, set your weapon loadout, save and you're done! Want to fly the campaign in MP? Simply set the player flight and his wingman to client. I know there are a lot of guys who never touch the ME for some reason. That makes the DCS world so much smaller for them... Changing the aircraft type in an existing mission, or the weather or the starting time is a matter of a few clicks!!! 2 NZXT H400i case i9 9900k @ 4,9GHz (cooled by NZXT Kraken X62 4x140Fan - Push/Pull) Asus RoG Maximus XI Gene with 32GB G.Skill CL14 Samsung M.2 970Pro 1000GB ZOTAC RTX 2080ti Triple Fan 11GB 34" RoG Swift Curved TFT runs smooth like Beck's Gold :D HTC VIVE pro eYe (still freaking out!)

sublime Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Ugh I gotta install bs2 to do this. How well are the scenarios translating? I figure they must translate pretty well. Has anyone been able to change everything for the entire campaign so it can be played as such? Besides the obvious 'playground' or 'sandbox' missions I found a DCE campaign is great to generate missions. However you will get murdered by fixed wing and even the more pedestrian enemy targets are lethal to you. Difficulty is extreme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides the obvious 'playground' or 'sandbox' missions I found a DCE campaign is great to generate missions. However you will get murdered by fixed wing and even the more pedestrian enemy targets are lethal to you. Difficulty is extreme I am currently playtesting my conversion of the default Huey campaign. Change the aircraft, put on the equivalent weapons. Change the fuel and livery, and you are half way there. The next step is going through all of the triggers to make sure that they are compatible with the Hind. Notably, I have to change the "User has put the engine to idle after landing" argument. I am also taking out the "door open" trigger arguments because I have no idea how to get to the crew doors in the Hind. Last step is to playtest. The biggest unexpected hangup were the "tune frequency 123 now" parts of the missions. Luckily both of the choppers have similar ADF radios (similar enough). I have yet to get to to the UHF tuning missions, so I expect to hit a slight hickup there. We shall see. Overall the changes have been trivial. Let's hope it stays that way 1 DCS VoiceAttack Profiles | My Mods and Utilities on ED User Files | DiCE: DCS Integrated Countermeasure Editor DCS Update Witching Utility | DCS-ExportScripts for Stream Deck Community Github Library Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nazradu Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 @Dave317 I planned on doing the same. It's an awesome campaign and could be a little tough in the Hind in some missions. When you are done, would you give me a heads up? I would like to present it on my channel. https://youtube.com/channel/UCTtzk7r9iAsNSjbeLUC5-_w It's small but I do it with passion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave317 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 No problem. I'm away for a few days but hoping I'll get it finished by Friday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice I have a lot of time to play and record in two weeks from now. So take your time mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuart666 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 This sounds like a great idea, but where is the Oil Wars campaign in the DCS directory? The DCS folder system is a nightmare to navigate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
