  3. corespondance with deacon regarding the mission Hi Deacon Here are a few comments from the guys, just minor points as all are excited to try this out. 1) What icons do you propose using? We really had difficulty spotting tanks with icons off 2) Are there any mods we would need 3) Are bridges able to be knocked out or have you made them indestructable 4) We propose that only the bombers take bombs not P-51 or 109 as P-51 can take 2 bombs to 109s 1 5) We propose that the P-51 does not use 150 grade fuel 6) How many of your squad that would be on our side would drive tanks? and how many would prefer flying ?, just so we know roughly what to plan. To answer most of your questions: 1) As to icons, if you wish them on, no problem. we tested the mission with no icons but its no problem to allow our server to have them on. 2) I don't believe we used any mods but I will check. No mods means no conflicts and I believe I did that to make sure the mission runs fine. Our server will be like your with mods on but I didn't use mods in this mission of A&S. 3) Any bridges that you need to go over along the direct roadway or railway from one flag to the next ARE destructible. Once destroyed the roadway bridge gets reconstructed in 15 minutes while the railway bridge takes 20 minutes. 4) I will check with my guys as to not allowing either the P51 or the 109 to carry bombs. That's simple to arrange in the mission. 5) Again I will check with my guys as to NOT allowing the P51 to use 150 fuel. 6) As to the number of our members that would drive/fly with you - when we tested there were four guys one of which only flew while the other three did both depending upon where or when the circumstances dictated what needed to be done. Depending upon how many of you guys commit to the mission will depend upon how many of my guys will join you. We want to keep the sides as equal as possible. As I said only one of my guys only flies in these missions and he is excellent. Maybe that's why he only wants to fly. BUT I don't know if he is available for the sunday times of 2100 hours GMT since he is on the West coast of the USA. He hasn't been flying in your sunday sessions with us due to a conflict in real life. But if he has a chance to stick it to my Command Staff by flying with you, he might take it. We have great fun teasing each other about it. Feel free to comment and I will pass these on
  4. Would it be possible to put icons on for at least one of the foothold campaigns to help an old man with dodgy eyes 🤓
  5. I was asked last night about the phantom skins I used so have put them here 892_NAS_001.zipRAF_111_Sqn_FG1_XV574_-_by_Fish.zip

  7. It really is a beautiful beast isn't it? Stunning restoration. I'd love to see this at a show over here, it's been a good 10 years since we've heard a Daimler Benz in these shores. If you can get your hands on a copy, I'd recommend the inaugural Vintage Aviation Echo (https://www.vaemag.com/preview-volume-i). Not only is it a wonderful publication, but one of the chapters is dedicated to Rote 12's restoration and test flight schedule, written by the pilot you see, renowned moustachioed RAF officer and warbird legend, Flt Lt Charlie Brown. Fun fact: Both Fenrir and I flew with this gentleman in a Boeing Stearman many many years ago as RAF cadets on warm summer's evening as a reward for marshalling at an airshow. Ahhh memories.
  8. I'll get a widget added, thanks Col!
  9. Best watched with headphones on or good speakers
  10. Last week
  11. Cheers Boo, good to see you are enjoying the server, and thanks for the feedback. Now I am not actively simming anymore, but I try and keep this server running as much as I can
  12. Then thank you DD_FT! The balance is perfect. Especially for noobs (As I class myself after 7 years away). You can get in, get up and get shot down in moments, no need to spend 4 hours looking for the other guy in server. S!
  13. Its the only way to use the F4 radar to get BVR kills against fighters in my experience, known about this for a while, but that video explains it really well. I have the buttons mapped for entering Boresight and the different aspects on a 4 way push hat (push to enter Boresight mode). You can use this method in WVR as well, just put the piper on the enemy, no need to 'Jester context button long' to lock, you can fire as long as you keep the piper on the bandit through firing to the impact. The F4 radar is a Fire Control Radar really just for guiding missiles onto targets rather than for building up a situational awareness as well, as in jets from the F-14 onwards, so you need to be guided on to the target (as accurately as possible) to use this method. One thing that is pretty key to note, is that if you are being guided on by AWACS in the F-4, you will need to know the MAG Variation on the map at that current date and subtract/add to the BRA calls by the AWACS to be guided on accurately and have the enemy in the Boresight cone. F-16/F-18/A-10 can access the Current MAG Variation from inside there cockpit displays for sure, maybe others, so I use one of them to check it when building missions. Its a sensible thing to have in the Mission briefing page.
  14. Definitely useful for the upcoming cold war campaign that's in the works right now 👍
  15. Glad you're enjoying yourself, all credit goes to DD_FT
  16. Saw the same video myself yesterday and was going to post it here!
  17. Just a quick thank you for keeping the DD server alive and interesting. Coming back to CloD after probably 7 years away, its a great place to cut ones teeth again (I got a bit of a shock with just how aggressive the 110s and 109s are). Good Stuff. Thank you
  18. Here are some Screenshots I made of Chris and Tom flying in formation. Sadly I didn't know the hotkeys and i had to use the windows Screenshot tool so the quality is a bit lackluster
  19. Since you requested for us to make a comment here: I'm in but won't drive tanks. Another suggestion to the scenario: If we don't get enough people for tanking, we could make it so that a flag can also be captured by paratroopers. For balancing reasons i suggest that the C-47 would need to drop 3 times while the Ju 52 would need to drop 2 times (since it is way slower than the 47) But this really depends on how many people are willing to drive tanks
  20. I have messaged Roger directly after we had our chat informing him of the fact that I have ownership and have made him an admin. Just waiting for him to reply. Thanks Jabo.
  21. Ownership of the Dogz Discord has been transferred to Col.
  22. Gentlemen Local partisans have told us a Luftwaffe general is flying into Tamen. Our mission is to intercept and shoot down his transport plane. If successful our secondary mission is to hit targets of opertunity at the airfield and surrounding area Mission scheduled for Sunday 2100 uk. Mods on but only need icon mod.
  23. I think it would make sense to limit the loadouts of the fighters to encourage playing bombers. It would be nice if only bombers had bombs and the fighters are purely air to air. I haven't looked at it but if the 51Ds have 150 octane it also would be more fair to remove it as well because the G-14 is not on par otherwise Just my two cents here
  24. Thanks mate we will try it out tonight
  25. On your pc the mission was created/saved in the 'Multiplayer/Dogfight/Campaign tester/' subfolder, that subfolder is missing on the server. To fix it: Either create that folder on the server, and put the mission files in there. Or re-save the mission to the normal 'Dogfight' folder on your computer, then transfer it over to the server. Or edit the .list file and remove the 'campaing tester/' folder reference from all the lines in there. In this case I applied the third option. It should load now.
