Soviet-afghan War Campaign for Mi-24 in progress
dggoofy replied to dggoofy's topic in Missions and Campaigns
In DCS, compromises are often necessary. For instance, the Afghanistan map represents the 2000s era, which is very different from 1979. At that time, there were no night vision goggles, no Stinger missiles, and so on. However, if one is looking for a bit of enjoyment, some historical flexibility must be accepted. Of course, no one is obligated to play my campaigns. Finally, I offer a 'satisfaction guaranteed or refund' policy. -
Soviet-afghan War Campaign for Mi-24 in progress
dggoofy replied to dggoofy's topic in Missions and Campaigns
WWP ? Work Well in Progress 10 missions done. Last 11th one in built. null"You are Igor Ivanovich, captain of the 302e OVE - 302nd Independent Attack Helicopter Squadron (302-я отдельная вертолётная эскадрилья). Along with your co-pilot, Piotr Petrovich, you are among the first squadron to land in Afghanistan. It is Monday, December 24, 1979. 3:00 AM. The Soviet invasion is underway!" This campaign, heavily based on real events, recreates some of the Mi-24 missions between their arrival in Bagram on December 24, 1979, and the capture of Jalalabad in January 1980. Merci / Thank you for you support! Release ? July. -

Hi, I attached a miz to let you see the "issue". I want my AI helos to wait until I want them to taxi. So, as I do for AI airplanes, I put a "block" (infantry or vehicle) in front of them. But, why it works very well for most of them, I always get one that takes off from parking ? Have a look in the attached mission. The "rebel" is at Kaboul, apron North. Cheers! Dan Helico-block.miz

Soviet-afghan War Campaign for Mi-24 in progress
dggoofy replied to dggoofy's topic in Missions and Campaigns
OK dear fellows, Just a quick update on my upcoming Mi-24 campaign set in Afghanistan. As with all my previous campaigns, this one will be story-driven and supported with plenty of documentation—approach charts, briefings, and more. And of course, a must for me: full voice-over! Thanks to AI, voice quality and realism are getting better and better. For authenticity, all dialogues are in Russian with English subtitles. That said, a big apology to all native Russian speakers—while I do speak some Russian, my level isn't high enough to ensure 100% accurate dialogue. Sorry about that! Sure, I could try to find native Russian speakers to help, which would be awesome—but it would also take much more time to finish the campaign. And since it’s a free one... As of today, I’ve written 11 missions. The campaign spans about 10 days. 8 missions are ready, and 5 have been fully tested and (hopefully!) are bug-free. Cheers null -
Hello, guys, the Afghanistan map in DCS is promising, and I really want to create a campaign for the Mi-24. The campaign will be set in the northern part of the map, so I hope DCS doesn’t take too long to add that last section to the overall map. And most importantly, I hope the FPS issues are resolved and the ground texture quality is up to par. I know the map is set in the modern era and not in 1980, that the Mi-24s were the D variant and not the P, and that the airports and cities were much less developed back then. But I've done a lot of research, and I’m taking on this challenge. If anyone wants to contribute, I’d be happy to receive templates of the Bagram, Kabul, and Jalalabad airports (Soviet version, 1980), as well as the FOB between Kabul and Jalalabad (it's impossible to find the exact location). Stay tuned! Dan Free campaign creator

Would be nice... to set the Operation Storm-333

Sure, I'm aware of that. I put the max power and (if possible) on a high position. My question is : In my campaign made for DCS 2.8, I set a couple of ground com vehicles (power 50 w). I could complete the mission without problem (distance to the com emitter >50 NM) and now in DCS 2.9, it doen't work any more. Max distance is about 35 NM. I have to duplicate the emitters if I do not want to redo the whole mission.

Hi, Just wander what's the distance now a ground unit can be catched from the air ? I created a campaign (Equilibrium 1975) and put some ground ATC within ME. And now they are unaudible if the player's plane is more than 35 NM. With the update, has the distance been reduced ? Cheers

Gosh! Thanks. Didn't see that. And this mistake is on every version. Corrected and updloaded right now.

New P-47 Campaign Announcement: Wolfpack II: Overlord
dggoofy replied to Reflected's topic in Community News
Awesome! I'm replaying all the WWII campaigns right now—Jagermaster, V for Victory. Can't wait to jump back into the P-47 campaign and then dive into this new one! Cheers -
4 new skins were just uploaded. They were intended to be used by me only, but I decided to share them anyway. - 11419 is a F-5A bare metal (I love shiny skins) - 2 USAF FA-xxx, one clean and another weathered (I love weathered skins) - 1 USA where you can set any digit...

FREE Campaign : Mi-8MTV2 - Palestrael 25
dggoofy replied to dggoofy's topic in Missions and Campaigns
Well, I've just checked with the first mission (Cargo) and I perfectly get the tower message. Did you set the volume fully up ? -
Hi Reflected, I played this campaign for the 2nd time and have just finished it right now. I just want to thank you for keeping your job updated. It was a great pleasure to replay this campaign above all after the Normandy upgrade. Such a beautiful map for a great campaign. It worked without any issue so I really enjoyed to fly each single mission from starting the engine (great you let us take our time to start up following the checklist!) to cut off. Cheers Dan

Hi, A few words to thank you for this great campaign. Was a pleasure to fly each single mission. No bug. All went as it should. Once airborne, it's so immersive. Full of dialogues. Very appreciated. I'd appreciate a bit more dialogues on ATC (Tower, taxi, take off) and some people, vehicles to see down there, that would be my only drawback. Oh yeah, you fool, mate! I had such a laugh at the end of those missions where you weren’t even supposed to fly all the way! Your comments, oh gosh. I'm thinking about MS Flight sim Cheers Dan

FREE Campaign : Mi-8MTV2 - Palestrael 25
dggoofy replied to dggoofy's topic in Missions and Campaigns
Well, I should update nearly all campaigns. It's a long time since I made them. But, sorry for that : no time at this time. -
Hi, Suggestion : if we could select a level of immortality ? OFF - You die MIDDLE - Weapons cannot hit you (Ground to air nor air to air : missiles, manpads, bullets, etc..), but take care of your engine and land smoothly or you will face some troubles. FULL - Do what ever you want! You'll never die. Personnaly, I set immortality on, because I'm very frustrated to be KIA and have then to restart the whole mission. But I'm not satisfyed with this option, because I know I can land like a dump... Cheers

Hi, OK... found a problem. Try the mission I joined here. Taxi to runway 07... AI won't follow. Why ? Because I put a freq change in the ME. Even if the frequency is the correct AD freq. If you delete the line, AI taxi normally. Not a big deal, even if I love creating campaign with full realistic radio comms. But good to know! Bug.miz

Hi, I had the same issue for the F-86 and MiG-15. Now, it's ok, but I've got it for the AH-64. In the kneeboard, I read _board. Where is the bug ? nullCheers Dan

Feedback Thread - F-4E Phantom II Patch, September 30th 2024
dggoofy replied to IronMike's topic in DCS: F-4E Phantom
Great update. And a question. Now Jester asks for the alignment quality as soon as power is set on. But I always hear only a part of the message. I put the helmet, ask for external power, wait a bit, then put right then left external power switch on, and I immediatly get the question from Jester, but only I cannot hear him completely. What should be the right procedure ?
