DCS Mission Editor | How to set up Carriers with TACANS and ICLS 

the option for the tacan triggered action is no longer availble and the carrier still turns the tacan off do you have any solution because you are the only one on the internet who explained it

9:08 to prevent that, do not set up way points until everything is set 1st. Then make way points, and it will carry over mission plans or goals as well at each point until you change it.

I'm on the floor laughing, the Jurassic Park music in the background is epic, so subtle. hahaha.

Helpful vid! And It's OK to call it ILS on the boat. ;) We all called it that. I rarely heard anyone call it ICLS, at least when I was in.

There is no Active ICLS in my Perform Command drop down...

thank you so much chif

I get no TACCAN ICLS option under Perform Command.. Any thoughts?? Followed everything and mine only has no Action, Run Script, Script File, Invisible and Immortal

How do I put jets on my ship? it doesn't seem to be manned, even when i zoom it is transparent as if it were a target. (I don't have dlc)

How do I pick up the ils beams during the flight? Sorry I’m pretty new to dcs

“Welcome, to Jurassic Park.”

They really should have made it a little more simple to have the carrier conduct such a simple task. Why would you have a carrier and it not outputting TCN ICLS.

i'm getting issues where the carrier when I comes in doesn't allow me permission, any ideas why?

I need help, everytime i click the button to add the plane, the game crashes, any fix or help?

So i can't get the trigger system to recognize the AI tasks of "activate tacan" and "activate icls". I followed all the steps to the letter and the task does not appear in the actions list. Is there a new way of doing this as i know that the TACAN bug still exists and i would like to keep them active? Thanks

the aircraft module wont show when i zoom in to place planes

Great video! Thanks!

why tacan and icls in triggered actions? i always set it in advanced waypoint actions and never had trouble with them

Activate ICLS isn’t an option under preform command for me?

Thanks for this video man. Very helpful and excellent presentation. Subscribed!

Wow. I learned more than how to set TACAN and ILS. Very complicate with lot of steps I will need to re-visited your interesting video with pleasure Question: How to set the course if the carrier change direction ? Thanks from CYUL

how do you add ils to runways

Great video, thank you very much!

I think I missing something... when I set up a carrier to do the TACAN/ICLS setup you describe... the carrier quits following the waypoints and plows straight ahead.

Good stuff Maverick

Thanks Maverick, very informative and brilliant attention to details as always. Looking forward to seeing more DCS Mission Editor Tutorials like this.

I just downloaded DCS with CA recently but the ships never listen to my commands set in mission editor (not to mention during the mission) regarding where to go (and starting to stop after a short while), as well as what to fire against to some extend...… planes also have the same problem but way more obedient (though they always start wandering off somewhere at times...) Can you tell me what happened?

I did everything, less the triggers and it work pretty well... something wrong gonna happens if I don't set that stuff in the triggers?

Tried following along with this - but when I go into CLONE the trigger action - there's no Tarawa to select.

Very Useful thanks

Excellent thanks!

oh shit you doing editor tutorial? nice one mate, cheers!

One month on. Still sliding around the deck. XD

Thanks for the gouge. The one thing I've really struggled with is trying to sort the proper headings in the game. I've had a hard time dialing in the proper BRC and wind over the deck. I'm not sure but I think that the headings the Hornet uses are true and the editor is using magnetic. All I know for sure is this; if I set the heading for the carrier to 000 deg, the real heading I need to fly in the game is about 357 degrees on the Caucasus map. I think that's just about correct MagVar. I know that if feels like there is a crosswind in close, but I don't know if they model the burble in game and that's what I'm feeling. Any additional gouge on the headings?

I'm now exclusively streaming on TWITCH folks and will no longer be streaming on RU-vid! Head over to the Twitch channel to keep up with all the live action! - www.twitch.tv/104th_Maverick

Thanks!

HI Maverick , could you tell me what's the background music at 24:00. It's sounds so familiar but cannot remember that.

How do I make one of the planes a player does it do it automatically

Great video thanks

how do i add ground crew?

Dear Mav. let me ask you some questions since I am totally new in that kind of staff (DGS) First of all, this tutorial is in DCS 2.5? Second, Is the aircraft carrier including in the theater that I have to buy or I have to buy it separately? Third, the aircrafts in the carrier (except mine) are they accompany my mission or they are static? Thanx a lot in advance, and sorry for a lot of questions

Mav does this still apply 2021 on the latest beta on the super carrier?

Hi so when I zoom in it doesn't show me the carrier how do u it after the settings?

Hi there guys! I'm fairly new to the dcs world life and i'm having troubles setting up spawns on the carrier. Can someone point me in the right direction on how to do this please? I tried generating a scenario and adding the carriers, then using my own methods to get a potential spawn point but i was greeted with a never ending "wait" message :(

Cool vid.

Hi Maverick. I've followed you tutorial ok but I'm failing on the next step! How do you set client spawning slots on the carrier that don't snap back to the centre of the flight deck?

is it just me or is the range on the carriers tacan like less than 10 Nm?

Ship simulator and DCS what would happen with that merger?

Seriously? No way to just loop the way point? Seems messy to just play way points on-top of each other. Eh, maybe I'm just too OCD about that stuff.

Lol, hey bud its pronounced TERRORWAH. friendly correction ship is named after a WW2 battle in the pacific islands...
