I think this mission instantly became the miles high TOP 1 training mission ever created for DCS! It is basically everything you need to learn in one single mission. Outstanding work, man! :D
Wow! This looks really impressive. Clearly you put a lot of effort into this. Helicopters are my favorite but I know I would get more out of DCS if I focused on fixed wing more often. I think you just made that easy. I'll download your mission and get right on it. Thanks for the effort.
Thank you! Although I primarily focus on fixed wing, there are a few helos in this mission. AH-64D, KA-50, Mi-24, SA342, UH-1 and Mi-8 that will spawn just north of the X.
Finally getting back into the virtual DCS cockpit after a three year hiatus.. really enjoyed your missions from the past and this will come in handy as I try and get current and qualified in all the Jets again…lots of rust to knock off, but looking forward to it thanks for your efforts and thanks for this mission. I will be wearing it out!
Thanks for all your incredible effort to create and share this training mission. I hope I get get real life out of the way, so that I can give the training a try this weekend :)
A great tool now even got better. Amazing! Should be part of the basic DCS package. Unbelievable you provide this and your other top products free of charge to the community. Is there anyway to support you? Didn’t see a Superthanks option or so.
Absolutely awesome man, what a fantastic update well done sir you should be proud of what you have managed to achieve. Downloaded as soon as I found out you had released it, love flying in the bad weather option simply awesome. Thank you so much 👍👏👏👏👏
@@sedlo Went really well! Tried it once in MP with my mate (2-man server), where he went to do some A-G stuff in the A-4, while I spawned an enemy in the air and fought it in the F-14. Works! We had a few doubts how well it would work with multiple people, but it worked just fine =). Not sure if it would hold up with multiple people in the same physical space doing the same thing, but, other than that - great! Tried it on my own as well and _loved_ the ability to fight, fight, tank and recover all in the same mission!
@@sedlo my son and I have been playing it quite a bit! It's a lot of fun. One thing we changed was not using tracer ammo during the night mission as it washes out the nvg.
Damn.... Now I have to go and play DCS again after I literally just quit a couple days ago.. Your BFM and Weapons trainer is the only reason I am the Virtual Fighter Pilot I am today.
@@sedlo Sure is. Feedback so far: I haven't tested absolutely everything but a couple of things happened I thought you might want to know about. First I had the mission end the first time I tried to switch from Day to Night via F10. It kept happening a few times. Then I just loaded the Night mission itself and when I used F-10 to switch to Bad Weather Day it loaded just fine. No idea why that happened and you probably don't either so I'm not much help with that. Second is something tiny and not really a problem but the JF-17 spawned in Offensive BFM still has flares, and as we all know with unl ammo the AI will just hold down the CMS button. Third is actually more of a problem and it's that in offensive BFM the enemy still doesn't "see" you so they just keep flying straight. I only went through all of the Eastern aircraft and only with the A-10CII(weird I know) so it could just be what I was flying or it could be something else. I did a few Neutral in the F/A-18 and they acted normal, well maybe not normal more like Ace++++++ difficulty lol. I'll do more testing tomorrow but I gotta be up for work in 4 hours...
@@RedTail1-1 hey, thanks for the feedback! I'll get on those bugs right away. I'm not sure what was happening with the offensive BFM, it seemed to work ok for me. I'll give it another look.
Oh My I've just downloaded the BFM 3.3 yesterday and this instead looks even more MASSIVE! MANY THANKS for the time and the big effort U put in making these training missions! (the weighted MIG21 sounds like a GREAT IDEA!) Ps is the AI planes setted to RANDOM or to a fixed skill? THANKS!
I have tried it single player on a dedicated server. Despite about a dozen asks, no one was ever available to test multiplayer. I suspect, however, that it won’t work due to some of the spawning scripts I have
@@sedlo man, I just bleed on every mission I create, and when I think I did a not too bad job, I see one of yours and start sobbing and crying until I fall sleep... :D
@@sedlo Yes, I know, but in my case, every time I create a new mission I'm like "hmmm, I achieved this in my last one, but I have no idea how I did it", so I have to re-learn how to do something. Every time. :D :D :D
I’ve tried it on a server and had just me in it. It worked then but the scripts used likely won’t work when others are on. But you can certainly give it a try!
@sedlo np will test it out later after work. The rest of the guys are already excited about it after I shared it with them. Awesome stuff mate, cheers and keep it up 👍👍@@sedlo

Thank you very much, Ravassaz!
This is incredible my friend! Whole DCS World community owes you very big time! Thank you very much!
You are most welcome. I hope you like it.
This has become my Go-To mission every single time for training. Thanks for the hard work!
That’s awesome!

Loved the last version. It was my go to mission to learn. Now it’s even better!!
Right on! It’s my #1 choice, too! A quick and easy way to get until the action.

You bet! I find it perfect for brushing up on things that I tend to forget!
Thanks. I keep an eye out for your missions and campaigns. My expectations are high now, and I’m never disappointed.
Thank you very much!

I hear ya! I was lucky to be get this done when I did. Hopefully I can get back into DCS a little more in the future.
Man, I was just wondering if I could find another one of these today so I didn’t have to build another..thank you so much, legit! 🙏🏻
You bet! Hope it works well for ya.
I’ve made a few of my own in the past, but this is way more sophisticated! Many thanks buddy 👍
You bet! I hope you find good use for it.
Give it a go today eh. Well done Hoser!
Ah, take off!
@@sedlo “take off….eh. 😁. Seriously, good work.
A great tool now even got better. Amazing! Should be part of the basic DCS package. Unbelievable you provide this and your other top products free of charge to the community. Is there anyway to support you? Didn’t see a Superthanks option or so.
No, nothing set up like that. I'm just glad people find it useful or entertaining.
This looks like a lot of fun to play around with, thank you very much!
You bet!
Oh boy... it's here! ♥
Have fun! And soon... have phun!
Quite simply outstanding, love your work buddy. Huge thanks from the community.
Thank you very much, I appreciate that.
Certainly going to give it a go. Looks very promising. Should be part of the core game.
I hope you like it!
Great work. Keep up the good job!

always good to see your work Sedlo ..!!
as a mission creator myself i know what work you have put here
Thank you, 3dmax911!
Amazing stuff, Sedlo! Will download it tonight and give it a go!
Let me know how it goes!

@@riman8493 good call on the small deck carrier, I will add that in for next release. Thanks!
Also I am very glad it went well! That is perfect.
Very cool stuff!
Thank you, Reflected!!
I was looking for something like this. Thank you.
You’re welcome. I hope you enjoy it.
Well done man! Thanks for the hard work. I've got my Friday evening planned now
I hope it suits the occasion ;-)

Ohh Sedlo....what would we, newbies, do if you were not around with these trainer!! Thanks so much.
You’d be ok, I’m sure!
Just what I’ve been looking for, with grab it as soon as I get off from work.
Enjoy!
Damn.... Now I have to go and play DCS again after I literally just quit a couple days ago..
Your BFM and Weapons trainer is the only reason I am the Virtual Fighter Pilot I am today.
It's one of those habits that draws you back, eh?

me: "weeeee lets make things go BOOM!"
Batter up!
This is such an awesome mission, thank you so much for making it!
You're a star Sedlo, thank you for doing this.
Dammit the day I flew out of town, but I’ll be back on it when I get back home
It’ll be there when you get back! Have a good trip!
That is FU**IN Great work, thank you very much for all of your work that you do. Just a question...will the F4E be included when it comes out?
Maybe ;)
This is awesome...now I can delete all the rubbish missions I have tried to make...thanks for sharing
Don't delete them! You never know when you want to get back into it again. Trust me, I've gone down that road.
Oh My I've just downloaded the BFM 3.3 yesterday and this instead looks even more MASSIVE! MANY THANKS for the time and the big effort U put in making these training missions! (the weighted MIG21 sounds like a GREAT IDEA!)
Ps is the AI planes setted to RANDOM or to a fixed skill? THANKS!
Enjoy! They’re all set to ACE skill level.
@@sedlo thanks!🤟🏼
Thank you for your hard work with this mission, just love it. Will it be possible to migrate to the Syria map as well?
Not really. This relies on certain things being in certain places.
Cool, Sedlo!! I'll try it!!
I hope you enjoy it!
Thanks brother.
You bet!
Gracias!!
da nada!!
Great work - is it pure singleplayer or could it be also used in multiplauer?
I have tried it single player on a dedicated server. Despite about a dozen asks, no one was ever available to test multiplayer.
I suspect, however, that it won’t work due to some of the spawning scripts I have
Surprise…from your last post I thought that was going to be at least ‘2 weeks’ 🎉
Never underestimate the power of pain to keep you awake at night ;-)
Wow.
Merci!
Wow, man. That really looks like a programming nightmare what you have in here...!!!
It was a learning experience, for sure. ;)
@@sedlo man, I just bleed on every mission I create, and when I think I did a not too bad job, I see one of yours and start sobbing and crying until I fall sleep... :D
@@ashitaka74 well, a good night sleep is important. I’ve been doing this for many years, and learn more each time I do it!
@@sedlo Yes, I know, but in my case, every time I create a new mission I'm like "hmmm, I achieved this in my last one, but I have no idea how I did it", so I have to re-learn how to do something. Every time. :D :D :D
@@ashitaka74 me, too! It’s one step forward, 3/4 step back.
My only complaint is the lack of a carrier for red.
Ah, you want a Kusnetsov to land on? That can be done. Next release I'll try and get that in.
Those poor cows.
They'll be put to good use!
Wow very cool. Can this be used in co-op on a server with a friend?
I don't think so... the scripts are very single-player centric.
@@sedlo ok, thx for the reply. Definitely still appreciate having this for sp.
Is it possible to implement the Mig-21 FM nerf in general? What would it take?
You'd have to do it on each mission... Seems I can' t post links here, but google: DCS func setUnitInternalCargo
@@sedlo Thanks. I think both the Mig-21 and the F-5 are very unfair if you're not in a more modern jet. They just don't lose energy.
Yes, I agree, @@algroyp3r . I hope the new GFM will help things along.
Will everything still work if it's loaded up on a multiplayer server?
I’ve tried it on a server and had just me in it. It worked then but the scripts used likely won’t work when others are on.
But you can certainly give it a try!
Is there a way to fly it in A-4?
Hmm.. good idea. I'll try and fit it in.
Possible to run this in mp? For the multi crew a/c?
It “should” locally hosted but I have not tested this.
@sedlo np will test it out later after work. The rest of the guys are already excited about it after I shared it with them.
Awesome stuff mate, cheers and keep it up 👍👍@@sedlo
bfm with bots - it's not the same as with real people
Correct.
