This is very impressive indeed. The effects are brilliant. And fantastic that you're working on a Mossie campaign. It needs a bit of TLC overall, in my opinion.
Ok we get it... You really take care of us :). thank you guys for your hard work. DCS will always have room in our heart. just dont forget about Razbam and the F15E 😢
The multi-select thing as well as just simple Ctrl+C/V has been requested for decades, but it's finally here and ED went above and beyond on it! Love it! I just don't find the selection row to be straight forward and intuitive with the things highlighted that it won't select. Totally should be the other way round.
I find the Multi Selection Tool especially useful to rotate a group at once while maintaining vehicles' relative position. Previously I had to calculate their positions using complex math and editing the LUA files. As to copying groups I used the templates.
Awesome I take it the odd Cloud problem with Fog on has been fixed Your Video of the fog looked so nice. My Hell of a Day at Sea Mission for the Huey will make good use of this new Fog. Love the Move, Copy, Paste, Select tools Very nice.
Great video, thank you! Also noticed that the fog thickness is ASL, so for example on the Afghanistan map might need to be 3000' before it's visible above ground.
I feel like it's perfectly reasonable. The game has awful performance as is and now we're getting more graphically intensive stuff that noone asked for. All the while the core of the game is severly behind.
@@Steamthrower1I keep saying this every single time someone makes a comment without taking even a second to think. ED has a priority system for updated and bug fixes that helps them decide on what to put out first based on priority and difficulty, if something is low priority but easy it usually doesn’t get put it, if something is higher priority and easy it’ll get put out, low priority and hard it won’t get put out, high priority and hard it will get put out with time. So things that seem easy may be lower in priority for it which is why they come later
I've been away from DCS for almost as long as I flew in the first place (almost a decade !). I returned to flying and learning the F-16 a little over 1 month ago. So needless to say, I am very rusty at this point (practically as if I'd never flown at all) so I can't remember if there was a suitable solution or not but I know everyone was asking for the ability to SEE what we are doing "in 3D" when placing objects. Has DCS incorporated anything to permit that ? A little 3D Window at the bottom of the screen (or wherever) would be really handy, especially with uneven ground or making sure everything lines up or is facing the right direction etc.
A very long waited pleasant change. Our life has become much much better. One question the ones we copy as a group we can see them ad templates as before?
Just attempted fog tonight, set it up just like yours without the second key. Have a north wind at 4 kts ay ground level, 5c in Iraq. No fog appears on looking at the mission from ME to check everything and also no fog when running the miz from ME for MP server either...
Anybody know if it's possible to select several friendly units, then change their Country so they're now enemy units (essentially changing them from blue to red), then change the type of unit they are?
how did you add Sound file? the button for that not working for me! this mean when I choose SOUND TO ALL and click on Open ... nothing happens! can anybody help with that?
Thanks for the vids. Good or bad I'm the mission creator for my group of buddies that fly online. I wish there was a manual for the mission creator. I've used the most simple of the tools / triggers to get some pretty good missions for my friends, but there's a boatload of commands I don't know much about. And none of my self created missions have scripts. I wish there was a manual for the creator so I could expand my efforts and create more complex scenarios. Anyone know if DCS ever fixed "trains" ? At last check when adding moving trains in the editor only the host can see them in multiplayer, but no other players. I haven't tried testing it for a long time.
yet the fog still is everywhere. Really wished it could be, let's say, more locally, on land or coast only e.g. but not out on the sea. Also it isn't yet affected by wind as far as i can see. Or am i missing anything ?
Mission makers are very, very appreciative!
This is fantastically detailed! Love to see the fog system overhauled. ❤
Your tutorials: as always absolutely fantastic. Love to see more.
Haven't heard from you in a while and really great to see you back. I've always admired your DCS work.
Thanks for showing. Fog not working with the new clouds always bothered me. Nice that this has been worked on and improved with more options.

Always a joy to see one of your mission builder videos, but even better you brought back the classic outro music 😊

Great video. Clear descriptions and instructions, Thanks.
Awesome! Keep these core improvements coming!!! :D
Sunts back in action, awesome.

Bloody Marvelous 👍🏼
Upcoming Mosquito Campaign is music to my ears.
Looking forward to it!
We needed all of this, happy to see it is going to happen soon 👌🏼

Great video, the fog script looks useful for Falklands missions :). Fingers crossed the ‘very welcome’ feature that is coming is an Undo button.
Great video, thank you! Also noticed that the fog thickness is ASL, so for example on the Afghanistan map might need to be 3000' before it's visible above ground.
I believe this will save me hours in editing time (the copy-paste-rotate feature). NICE!
its really nice to see you again, hope you are not having health issues, wish you all the best. PS: Looking forward to your Mosquito Campaign :)
I have been waiting for this for soooo long.
A scale option for the mission editor would be awesome. Not an object scale, but rather a position scale relative to the anchor.
Looking forward to this greatly. Long over due. Morning fog burn off finally!
Thank you for showing this.
The fact it took this long for a copy tool like that is mental.
True, but at least they made it actually decent with all the features that come with it.
the fact undo/redo isn't implemented yet is even more mental
Excellent
Only on the DCS forum could people actually complain about being given a better weather system.
well its more so why are we getting fog instead of literally anything else more important
I feel like it's perfectly reasonable. The game has awful performance as is and now we're getting more graphically intensive stuff that noone asked for. All the while the core of the game is severly behind.
@@vigvaryb well the fog is part of realism, isnt it ? I agree about performance tho. For me DTC is on top of the list.
I’ve been apart of the DCS community for 4 years now and this comment sadly is 100% correct

He's back!
Are we able to set the fog to appear on a trigger for coming back to base and landings in bad weather?

crazy it took so long but at least drag select is finally here.
What about undo/redo button now ?
I'd love to see a concept like trigger zones but for a flight to target and then the ability to place DMPIs and assign them to members of a flight.
Auto fog is dependent upon mission dewpoint, but we still can't control the dewpoint?
Finally... it took only 15 years. But better late than never. Now let's hope for Undo/Redo and History states.
Thanks!!!
This all awesome
THanks! Does this work with dust clouds?
Anybody know if it's possible to select several friendly units, then change their Country so they're now enemy units (essentially changing them from blue to red), then change the type of unit they are?
this is great !
how did you add Sound file? the button for that not working for me! this mean when I choose SOUND TO ALL and click on Open ... nothing happens! can anybody help with that?
How does that UFC button trigger work without any condition? Do I miss something here?
Nice video. Can you do the fog in reverse so that its clear at takeoff, but foggy when landing. thanks
Great, thanks!
Can we have an visual of stormsand ?Q
Kewl.
Now I need UNDO and late activated statics.
How about multi-select and save to template?
Thanks, are ED working on a AI Navigator (jester) for the Mossie??
Will sand drop with fog for sandstorms?
Is it possible to put Fog over a certain area, a City for example?
Awesome. They could of done the minimum and just add the basic multi selection but they did one better and added options for selection.
Thank you.

Oh! Mission editor starts looking like a software designed for being used by human beings!
Please be a 3D editor that is coming!
Now if we can get a true 3d view in ME...
wait....DUST STORM?
That's been there for a while now - I believe it only works on the PG/SoH map
Thankfully it took dcs only 16 years to implement a quarter century old concept. The undo Button 😅
Thought you'd punched out, banned from posting ?
Utterly pointless
