Troubleshooting

When you submit the bug report you should include following files/information:

  • version of the campaign application
  • both generated mission files (under Saved Games\DCS\Missions)
  • log.txt file, which is located in the same directory as start.bat
  • name of the operation you try to commence and amount of units you scramble
  • general description of the problem

Some typical issues that could be fixed by yourself:

I can't see the missions in the My mission menu

Campaign will use following paths to put the files in:

  • \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta
  • \Saved Games\DCS

If the first one is present it will always be used. If it happens that you need to use both directories simultaneously you can still load the mission by mission editor which should let you load the mission from anywhere on the hard drive. Don't forget to choose the DCS.openbeta directory while saving debriefing by Save debriefing dialog too!

I save debriefing file but nothing happens

If you are sure that you saved the file to the correct location, you might want to restart the application and check whether it will help:

  1. close the application and start it anew
  2. select the same event, scramble the same amount of troops, and generate the mission
  3. re-save the debriefing

Upon application startup "Save game was corrupted message is shown"

Congrats, you've found a bug that crashed the game during saving progress!

You could try to fix that by replacing liberation_save (main save file) with liberation_save_tmp (temporary save file preceding main one), whose are located under your user DCS directory (C:\Users<user>\Saved Games\DCS).

Game doesn't load the mission (gets stuck on the loading screen)

Somehow mission was incorrectly generated. Please submit bug report (and don't forget to attach the mission file in question!).
