Bombing solution seems to use Barometric Altitude only
AvroLanc replied to ldnz's topic in Bugs and Problems
Set QNH for ground atttck presumably, otherwise there would be no need for setting a target point elevation. This also assumes that, by design, you must ensure the target is co-located as closely as possible with your current Waypoint. -
I'm finding the interaction between all the different modes, particularly in regard to HMS both COOP and non-COOP very confusing. Has anyone got a no BS reference for how it should work? AeriaGloria's work is good, but could be made clearer......
-
Guys, are these bugs exclusively MP or SP as well? How on earth do these things not get picked up in closed beta testing?
-
Anyone been able to confirm these bugs? I’m holding off on the update in case the Apache is broken…..

Yep, you can get bank steering guidance on the ADI to the selected radial, but you also must use the HEADING SET knob to set the command course. Direct quote from HB manual: “The HSI Heading Set knob is used to set a desired TACAN course for bank steering presentation on the ADI. As the bank steering is based on the heading marker position, if it is not set properly, bank steering on the ADI will not be correct to intercept the desired course” Go try it. It works.

You need to set the command heading to the same radial/course (with the HEADING SET knob). The FD will only give correct commands with a suitable heading set.

[2.9.9.2406] ARBCS mode indications not as per manual/RL
AvroLanc replied to Stickler's topic in Bugs & Problems
+1 This has been mis-implemented since release. The ARBCS modes have serious flaws that need investigating. It gets worse when you combine a LABS/ARBCS mode with WRCS/OFFSET. The warning tones and functionality are missing. Problem is....it gets VERY complicated single pilot to set up and reproduce in a track. Bit frustrating since it was claimed all weapon delivery modes were to be working at release. -
Feedback Thread - F-4E Phantom II Patch, September 30th 2024
AvroLanc replied to IronMike's topic in DCS: F-4E Phantom
Yep, the new sounds are definitely NOT an improvement. I miss the old 'howl' sound. The old sounds need to make a comeback. This is a huge step backwards imho. -

CH47 Engineer Stations and walking to them (VR)
AvroLanc replied to Devil 505's topic in DCS: CH-47F
Oh and by the way…the yellow emergency manual release handle does work in the trap door position….so that’s cool. And the hook is animated. There are also 3 ‘hook lights’ that are controlled from the same position. They work. Unfortunately the radar altimeter doesn’t yet work. Still couldn’t close the trap door, even holding the button. I’ll try again today. (I’m thinking now that playing with the emergency release lever may have blocked the trap door from closing?) -
CH47 Engineer Stations and walking to them (VR)
AvroLanc replied to Devil 505's topic in DCS: CH-47F
Yeah, not working for me. The only button is a toggle - open/close. Maybe I bugged it out of sequence somehow. -
CH47 Engineer Stations and walking to them (VR)
AvroLanc replied to Devil 505's topic in DCS: CH-47F
Anyone worked out how to CLOSE the trap door? I’ve got it to open and found the extra view position looking out of the trap door with a sling load attached…..but can’t seem to close the trap door again, once the load is released…… -
fixed PFZ no longer affect FCR target prioritisation
AvroLanc replied to AvroLanc's topic in Bugs and Problems
Thanks for your reply. Yes, I noticed that the NTS was being assigned immediately too, and suspected that was wrong. I couldn't fully assess the bug though in my limited time available to test, it was only clear that PFZ's are not working, despite being fine in the past. It's actually super irritating that previously working features in this module are breaking with almost every patch. Admittedly it's complicated but I thought the new 4-6 week patch cycle was supposed to be an improvement. Anyway, thanks for your explanation Raptor. -
As of the latest patch BAM PFZ's no longer affect the FCR target priority order. If you create an active PFZ, it should be the top priority for selecting the NTS target. Instead the logic seems to ignore the PFZ completely. This USED to work perfectly...........rather like C-scope used to. This patch hasn't been kind to the AH-64. No Fire Zone's NFZ's, continue to work correctly. Thanks. AH64 PFZ.trk

Indeed. Hopefully this can be hotfixed soon….. There’s no point getting new features if they get broken soon after being introduced and then having to wait at least 6-8 weeks for a fix. Where’s the closed beta team?
