Hi Falcas,
there is something wrong with the VIP setup for BMS 4.34 and WDP 3.7.14.140. VRP works perfect but for VIP I have found following problems:
- PUP point is not computed correctly in the DTC. The PUP point lands somewhere far beyond the target. I found a workaround in that I modify the Viper’s DED VIP page and set the VIP-TO-PUP to what the WDP tells me for TGP-TO-PUP (VRP setup)
- The OA2 is always placed below OA1, regardless whether I tick “Place OA2 at the Aim Off Point”
- to get the SOI onto the real target I have switch TMS right to IP on the FCR. Initially the FCR is set to TGT, which is actually the IP.
The VRP setup works fine although by default the FCR is set to TGT, which might not be a bug but is inconsistent with the WDP manual.
Regards,

Good morning all.
I’m probably missing something, but on WDP, I can’t seem to find a map setting for the Kurile Islands conflict?
The missions load fine and everything, but the I can;t generate the correct mapping?

Dear Falcas,
how can i convert latitude and longitude numbers from “Airport.xml” to the DMS format? -

AlDid you add the Kurile theatre to the WDP database?
And added the map to the \Map directory?gr Falcas

@Mnf:
Dear Falcas,
how can i convert latitude and longitude numbers from “Airport.xml” to the DMS format?A question back for you, which you should ask yourself…
What do you want to accomplish with that?gr Falcas
-
Dear Falcas,
I want to read this value and use it to find Lat & Lon of an airport (if you allow me to use your data).
I’m trying to use this data in Voice Attack to put this value in DED automatically. -
The values in WDP database are the location in the theater in feet X/Y from the lower left corner.

HI
I want to load a campaign mission for red side. But it seems to be loaded only for Blue side ?
sometimes i can’t choose side.

Did you add the Kurile theatre to the WDP database?

I haven’t, mainly because I don’t quite understand what you are referring to?
Is there a guide somewhere on how to do that? -

Is there a guide somewhere on how to do that?WDP has an (open) database with all the theaters, countries and airports.
If your theater is not included in the database, you won’t find it in WDP.Gr Falcas

Hi Falcas, first, thanks for the WDP, its helps a lot.
Second, just two questions:
-
In balkans theater, my home base is Casale/Brindisi wich have two rwy according to Balkans MAIP 13-31 and 05-23. In WDP (currently i’m using 3.7.14.140), after I load the mission, in the datacard/airbase section it’s showing casale as departure same as arrive, but when i want to choose rwy its states: 01-19 and 15-33. WDP is in Balkans.
-
In WDP, after load the mision, usually Steerpoint 6 has the coordinate all wrong, way to south. Is the only steerpoint off set, all other are OK.
Thanks
Best Regards
Chuno

Hey Chuno,
The answer to 1 is very simple. The version of Balkans which you uses has probably a different (new) airbase.
You need to update the WDP database to match the theater.For question 2,
When you load the mission and select your flight you will get an question if you have saved the DTC specific for this flight.
In 99% of the cases you want to answer this question with NO.
Are you saying yes?Gr Falcas

Thanks for the quick reply!!
About my first question, thanks, I will look into the database.
About my second question, when the campaing engime fragg a mision of my interest, in the BMS UI i mark the the treaths with the PPT Steerpoints, the target steerpoint, etc. then i save the campaing and the DTC. Then I open WDP and I load the mision to make the final tweaks. As i have previusly save the DTC, when WDP question me, I answer yer. I that what I am doing wrong?
Best Regards
Chuno

Don’t answer yes…. answer NO

Chuno, I think if you have some steerpoints or lines from a different mission in the DTC you need to clear them or it throws WDP into giving a waypoint somewhere in China or elsewhere.
I’m not sure if this is what is causing this to happen but usually when I have that problem this is the fix I use.I do the same thing as you I make some adjustments to the flight plan, add PPT’s, lines and such in Falcon UI. Then save the DTC first, then save the campaign. When you load the mission in WDP and choose “yes” when it asks if you have saved your DTC it should work. Your PPT’s, lines and waypoints should be correct.
I like to assign targets to waypoints that are after the last flight path waypoint. I usually start with waypoint 15 thru waypoint 24 unless the flight has more than 15 waypoints (usually never more the 15 waypoints but I know some people have more complex flight paths than me). This makes it easy to direct the AI to attack different targets.

Don’t answer yes…. answer NO
So I’ll say it again… Don’t answer yes… answer NO
-
You know how that is…
-
I thought Carbide in post #1897 had a good reason for answering Yes. Falcas, you’re insisting to answer No. So when should we answer yes?
-
“So when should we answer yes” all the time … it make for a happier life !!!
-
Only if you have precision STPT saved. And they must be correct and for the flight you are going to use.
Yes I also find this a huge pain in the A… But it is what it is.
You can always check the STPT list in the DTC tab if you want.All the other stuff in the DTC does not matter for the question. They get loaded as they are.
