Description
H A W K S⠀|⠀Dynamic Air Ops | Bala Murghab 
  
[SP/COOP Local Host/Dedicated Server] 
Tested on Dedi = Yes
Players = 1-10
Civ Presence = No
Enemy Faction = HMGs and chance of Light APCs. No AA!
Length = 20-45min
HAWKS Dynamic Air Ops is a SOLO or COOP CAS around the new Afghan map; Bala Murghab. Each time you load in, the Area of Operations will randomly populate with vehicles, boats and squads for you to take out. Choose to pilot from all the UAV and manned NATO air assets, plus a custom painted Kajman. 

The Base of Ops features a Pylon refit terminal so players can change their aircraft weapons, as well as some other player modifiers should you choose to use them.

To improve performance AI spawns have been kept light and spread apart. As well as caching all the AI, which will only wake up 2500m out from player's position. 
Please allow 20 seconds at each mission start for everything to initialize and cache. Once missions are assigned to you, everything is ready to go 🚀
Features : 
  • Randomly populated AO and random mission locations on each play through. High replayability.
  • All AI units are cached, significantly improving performance, 60fps+ in building/testing/playing the mission. 
  • Lots of HD custom textures including custom designs for the Rotary Assets (see above gallery pics).
  • Re-spawn enabled for all players and all Assets. Helis and Jets will respawn back at the BOO where they started.
  • Pylon Editor stationed at the BOO, adjust your Payload before you head out.
  • All NATO Air assets including the Greyhawk and MQ-12 Falcon are available to players
  • Random Time and Weather each mission start, favoring daylight hours. 
  • Unlimited player and asset respawns.
Highly recommended mods to increase immersion (but not required) 
DCE - Control any AI unit present within a 200m radius of you with a friendly option packed GUI
DAPS - An Active Protection System for all Air and Ground assets. Applies to both Blufor and Opfor so makes rocketing a lot more interesting!

With cached units and dynamic simulation this mission is quite playable in Local Hosting, SP or COOP. But building of this mission and testing was done with the use of my dedicated server. 
How To Launch Mission Solo or LAN :
  • Go to Multiplayer
  • Server browser
  • Host Server
  • Type in server name, # of players, password
  • Choose map on left (Bala Murghab (Summer) in this case) and the mission "HAWKS | Dynamic Air Ops" on right.
  • Hit Play

My other SOLO/COOP/MP Missions :


Update v1.1
  • Adjust random time at mission start, now favouring dusk and night time.
  • Added F/A 181 Black Wasp to starting airfield.
Update v1.2
  • Added a "Get New Mission" Laptop to the staging tent. This will generate a new task each time you interact with it. Now you can stack up as many tasks as you like before heading out.
Update v1.3
  • Updated mission to the latest map version. It will now be found under the map > Bala Murghab (Summer).
  • Please un-sub and re-sub to make sure all files are moved correctly.
Update v1.4
  • General house keeping.
Update v1.5
  • New Steam cover image, more true representation of the BMG landscape you'll be flying in.

Mission is not playable, Same issues as other players. Enemy Units are not spawned in but appear in Zues, and can be killed if exploded in the area they are in zues at. Doesnt matter how close or far you are.

p/s. Of the working maps now only Livonia and I fly there periodically. I would like to see more tasks that would open fire on me(Which could be dangerous for me). (What is now is the ka-60, and it seems to be something related to the rls-750). Maybe in the future you will use add-ons such as RHS and spawn techniques from there.
Anyway, thanks for scenario. I hope there are solutions to the problems with Bala Murghab and Altis.

Hi. I met with the same problem as others wrote before. All tasks are issued, but the appearance of a task, for example, to destroy a car - the car is not displayed. However, if you drop a bomb exactly at the place of the task, the task is considered completed. And so with the rest of things. The destruction of groups is also difficult, because people are not visible.
And the appearance of objects occurs until you get into the task zone by helicopter and get back on your feet.

An interesting point - Altis map interacts with me before. Not at the moment either. I flew on assignments and there is the same situation as in Bala Murghab. However, your new mod with the Livonia map works, people spawn, cars too, everyone opens fire, runs away.

After reading the thread, I saw mentions of disabling some settings (Simulation/Model). Is it necessary to do this in my client or is it your task in the editor? (If in my client, where to look?)

I cannot reproduce this. Everything spawns and begins to simulate at 4000m from player.
AI group leaders cache as well, but their map pos is updated every 10secs, and then un-cache at 4000m away from player.
I set my view distance to 5500m, so the AI are attacking me already as I approach them.

I have to be on foot for them to spawn, even hovering doesn't work
VedKay  [author] 2 Apr, 2023 @ 8:22pm 
How far away from you? That could be the caching system.

All Speedboat tasks and some offroads have (Enable Simulation) and (Show model) turned off and i have to enable them by hand with Zeus

If you get a black screen you’re missing required mods.
e_bergstrom 10 Mar, 2023 @ 3:07am 
same with the other scenarios

For Some reason, It just shows a black screen. I've tried to unload and load the mods and everything. Can you help me?
