Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.
This is known as "bad luck.”

Ditto. I'm willing to host it on my mediafire site.

The average naval aviator, despite the sometimes swaggering exterior, is very much capable of such feelings as love, affection, intimacy, and caring. These feelings just don't involve anyone else.

Anyone got this mission working in DCSW 1.2.2.7570?

When I try and play it, it just hangs on a screen that says loading with no progress bar. I tried to load and save it in the ME but it does nothing when I click the Save button so I have to click cancel instead and can't save it.

I got it working. More info on the ED-forum.

I just PM'd Para_Bellum to check if it's okay if I make this version public. I'll follow up and post a download link here if I receive a positive reply from him.

Cool. smile

I think this was the first combat mission I ever flew in Black Shark, I think it's going to remain a very valuable resource for new pilots. smile

Definitely. I've more or less got the hang of flying now so I'm moving on to learn the weapons system and find it almost impossible to spot the enemy, even when they're shooting at me, so having this tutorial which shows me where to look will at least give me a chance to learn how to locate them wink

I don't suppose anyone has got a copy of the BS1 version of this, for a cheapskate who hasn't got around to upgrading to BS2 yet? The linked version doesn't work.

Can't help there. Only suggestion is to try opening the file up in the BS1 mission editor and then saving it. Long shot, but what the heck.

Try this one: How_To_Take_Off_and_Blow_Stuff_Up.miz

This should be the one I used as a basis for the modification to work with DCS World. I just loaded it up in BS1 1.0.2 and it looked okay.

If it works for you, I'll add the checksums later.

Edit checksums:

MD5: c6ab5c498a6b32d31572d1a0d7b2b8bf
SHA1: 6a75e88ee70ba12d2e7226d34a3e53f67e4e5558
SHA256: a5154e91574c7aef5adb6d0b4798c548247fa65f8ba3e92c1f5b1f34d113df4b

Thanks, Yurgon. thumbsup


It seems to load fine - I'll report back if I discover any problems.

Edit: it runs too - I took too long spotting the tanks and by the time I'd got the Shkval lining up, they were firing back - the ejector seat works, anyway...

Yup, sounds like the mission is working perfectly fine. smile

You probably already figured this out, but (not just in the tutorial) try to stay out of the enemy's engagement range. Your Vikhr ATGMs will outrange all MBTs even in the most daring scenarios. Spotting the enemy soon enough is what it's really all about. smile
