Bugs and issues Nordic 1.0

@snpusher01:
Did you make a folder in the campaign called “WeatherMapsUpdates” and place your fmaps generated from Ahmed’s F4WxBeta app in this? I did this and imported the stock bms fmaps into the campaign folder and was able to load them on the WX 2D screen. I’m not 100% sure but I think the 10 minute fmaps I generated (eg 010905.fmap) are loading as the campaign progresses. Would you be able to confirm?
I was wondering if the NTO weather engine was pointing correctly to this new updates folder.
However, the mission brief screen still does not show any weather.
Cheers
Dave
Hi Dave that is exactly what I did, fmap was loaded correctly. I downloaded 60-minute maps and tested a TE for 20 minutes or so, I can’t tell you for certain if the maps are updated. It appears to work as it should though.
Use custom N63 to N72 (not N71) and E11 to E34 with theater size 64 for the downloads.

no matter which aircraft I pick, or which squadron, or which airbase, or which nation, I am relocated upon campaign start.
-
I’m also having an issue with my pants getting really tight every time I fly the gripen…
-
Can confirm that weather maps update properly. However, weather is never shown in the briefings, which is a problem.
I’ve been playing the Russian Bear (modern) campaign, curious about the choices of aircraft. Who are the F-16 block52+ CFT’s supposed to belong to? Sweden doesn’t operate f-16’s, hornets, tornados, strike eagles, harriers… Are these supposed to be from other Nato countries?
-
Question about SAMs:
Are there any other SAMs in this theater besides the SA-10? I think the russians would bring other types of shorter range mobile SAMs on their invasion: for example SA-6, SA-8, SA-9, SA-13, SA-15, SA-17Edit: the armored columns have 2S6 (SA-19)

. this is Chuckles camp but the answer is yes there are blue side planes from a lot of different countries. besides the idea that if Russia invaded every one would be involved. in skyfox based camps i tried to involve German and Brits as well. im working on the time frames but expect a bit of outoftowners to stay.

-
Ah, cool. I was confused because they were all under the Swedish flag. Maybe you could put all the misc aircraft under a NATO faction.
-
done.

Oohh, at last! It was time that someone would do that!
Thanks a lot for this too (you already know what I mean by the first one ),Ned.
With best regards,

Small bug:
Missing Clear and Clear All in the recon screen
Here is a screen from KTO

Reported Bugs and status
1. EDawg109; Extracted MFDs (FCR/HSI) failures
1. MLU; quickFix is With BMS running in background, stop and start the extractor, and MFD video is running again. Quick fix.2. MaxWaldorf; instant relocation at start of camps (known issue may move away from the front in the future)
EDawg109; Vilhelmina 35th FS Tasking is delayed at least till 1500. need to dig into whats the delay!3. Luke777; could not load weather maps
4. Tirak; C model F35 should only be on Carrier in xplane camp
5. Viking; WDP does not work with Nordic DB, this is something maybe only Falcas can fix.
6. Luke777; resise map for MC… it comes 2000x2000 and MC requires 2048x2048.
7. LorikEolmin; No UI sound
7. starrats; made a hotfix till update8. Jackal; list in pre-planed threat circles and dogfight selection list are both missing units… again
MFD Extractor ver 0.6.3.0 solves the problem, reported from a friend of me. I was using ver 0.6.1.1.

worked with the gripen quite a bit, put about 20 hours into her…
It needs some attention when carrying outboard tanks, something with the drag coefficient, it was maintaining level flight with 6000 lbs of fuel doing 105 IAS at 19k, throttle pinned full couldn’t get it above 200 IAS, maintained almost dead level AOA, never got a stall or horn warning, jett tanks and nose down, immediate stall. I’m currently using a keyboard and mouse as I am away from my home plate but it was consistently inconsistent, all around those outboard tanks being loaded.
I never realized how little fuel this guy can carry inboard, it replaces the mig29a as being the short legs.

You make me want to re-fly the situation… flew the Gripen today, but nowhere near the parameters you mention.

try it out man replication is really important, my hours of flight are really late comparatively to when I post here. I tried it twice in a row, got the same results each time. It flies like a painted brick with the tanks on her, at least for me. I even nosed down from around 20k to full 90 down and on the energy boom dive i went from doing about 175 IAS up to a whole 215 IAS across 10K of angels so I know something’s UFOish as of now.
Unless Sweden isn’t telling us something, and those leading edge electrogravitics are being exported

Hey,
Just a little heads up for WDP.
Nordic theater is not added to the WDP database. The database for WDP contains all the theaters, countries and airports.
The information included is much more compared to what is stored in the theaters database itself.
For example the Runway lenghts, frequencies, ICAO/IATA names, transition level and these kinds of things. This is all needed for WDP to full work to its best.
As long as the Nordic theater is not added, it won’t really work.Working on it, so just be patient.
When this is done, WDP will find the Nordic database and will collect all the needed data for vehicles ect as needed.Gr Falcas

noted; flying brick! I need to test this but last time i flew j39c it seemed OK. will have another look at FM for Ranger822

she’s fun as heck without the tanks and in cat I, so thanks! don’t want to seem dickish.
will give any feedback or experiences I see. I’m not mentioning the big stuff I’m noticing like the obvious WIP stuff (EF cockpit, airbase freqs, etc etc etc) but if I notices anything screwy and I can replicate it at least twice, I’ll add it here.
Something you might want to mimic and broadcast to the community is that they should attempt to replicate their own bugs after a boot cycle at least twice. Getting Ctd’s and relocation hung tasking is par for a falcon day, so I’m not holding any of that against the theater, it’s more of just, the street it was built on, so to speak.
:).
have an awesome day, just a sidebar, among other things I worked as a very basic assembly coder in the early to mid 90’s. I really agree with your philosophy (as far a s development) and I am impressed by your work. If I can be of service ( financially or otherwise) reach out to me by PM.
The development of high fidelity flight simulators is imperative to the survival of both innovative industries and the hegemony of the power quo.
-
not to worry just keep pointing things out. the ils is getting changed as we speak. the base coords were fixed so this might help with weather. i dont know yet. as far as volunteers … terrain worker would be nice.
-
a real big thing I’m noticing is there are two awacs packages being tasked sentry 1 and 2 and most of the time, neither respond on UHF or VHF, also, it seems the tasking is running flights to the extremes of the ranges of the airbases, for instance the last DEAD i tried tasked me 300 miles north to the IP, for a rounder of around 600 miles.
PHEW, thats a haul…no tankers on station by default. Campaign is really only place I spend time because I’m on the road.
