It’s not compatible with steam version of dcs. Does this mean I have to have 2 copies of dcs installed to play?

You just buy it through steam. I’m a Steam DCS user and I can see it for preorder. It’s tempting!

Are you open beta steam or finished product Steam? I suspect you need to be beta.

DCS do make some amazing promotional videos, I know I probably wont play it much but I do want the apache

 

[lokiss]

Ditto.

Don't normally pre-order stuff, least of all a DCS mod. If there was ever the one, it was the Apache.

 

[Brazo]

Haven’t got time to try the Apache

Still very much learning Hornet and barely touched recently acquired Mosquito.

pre ordered

 

[Josey Wales]

Pre ordered. Will this come with a set of missions? Id love a dynamic campaign or kinda dynamic campaign to run with the Apache

The mosquito and hornet both came with training modules and missions but campaigns have to be bought separately, there are however plenty of player made campaigns that can be downloaded for free and some are very good.

thanks, yes I seen a dynamic campaign for the jets that was covered by a popular YouTuber here.

Should be able to fly Apache here I think

Forget the last post above, this is the correct link for the Dynamic Campaign.

I find that Liberation is the best way to enjoy DCS when playing solo… so much so, that without it I wouldn’t be playing DCS

Somehow I've not seen that before, guess I was too busy with Squadron work. That looks awesome. Will definitely take a look.

Update: Spent an hour with it. Managed to fire up a mission. However, got the error message about incorrect file locations, which I tried to resolve with copying over the Mission Briefing LUA.
In addition, the missions generated simply crashed my dedicated server, either during load or at the start of a mission. Guess I need to do some more reading, as there's clearly tons of potential.

I can’t wait to get out of training with the Hornet to enjoy these sorts of things!

I’ve not set this up yet myself but will do although only in single player. Maybe try posting on liberation forums..?

There is a very active Discord channel for Liberation, with some of the developers in there daily - maybe try asking there.
You can find an invite link on the Liberation Github page
