Noticed after last update that jdam and gps guided weapons don’t show a steering line anymore? The LGB seem to work fine and show a line. Did something change or is this a bug?

I agree with this, it seems a little too dark compared to what i would expect but it could be that this was just the case with the phantom. There is a mod that you can use on the user files page that passes ic to make some of the skins you would like have clear front glass.

Fair enough, I'm going to give it another shot with night vision on and see what I can accomplish. Now on mission 11 and I must say this is one of the best campaigns I've done. Very much enjoying it and surprisingly pulling off consistent 80% successes my first time through which feels pretty good. Good work and look forward too whatever you have coming in the future, especially for the Phabulous Phantom!

So i just got to mission 7 and tried it and i am unsure if i am missing something or maybe i am expected to do something other that what i am. The mission takes place at night and you are not given night vision. I suppose i could equip it but i just figured maybe the point was to not have it. My issue is the pave spike is a TV only pod so it sees all of nothing at night. I also can see all of nothing at night. The target is not lit at all either. So i suppose my question is how am i supposed to find the target and strike it if its not lit and the pod can not see anything at all?

I wouldn't be opposed to flying with you and doing some training. I very exclusively try to fly the phantom so i am pretty proficient with the aircraft. I am Moosemermaid on discord. Hit me up and i can get a feel for where you are at currently and what youd like to learn/focus on.

Ah ok sounds good just figured id point it out in case!

Notice while on through the inferno Afghanistan last night that the reaper drones laser pointer was visible as a big white line in the mirrors. Really not a big deal but figures id point it out. Sorry I didn't get a trac of it.

I know that the new engine sounds were removed at the last update due to a bug that was present (I personally never experienced it). Will they be added back soon or possibly at the next update? Really loved the new sounds and were making for some good videos. Don't want to potentially have two different audios in the same video lol.

It still says that they do development for DCS at the bottom of the main page under the about. Seems like a lot of hysteria to me.

Despite what is happening, the jet is very effective in its current state and very fun to fly. Its actually one of the only jets I fly currently besides the F4E. I Really hope progress is made between ED and Razbam because it has so much potential to be the most badass piece of hardware in DCS. However, if it stayed the way it is and it just was kept functional I would still fly it.

I have a small question that @NineLine may or may not be willing to answer. In the event a conflict between ED and a third party developer could not be resolved; could the license and development be handed off to another, obviously willing, third party developer or be taken over by ED themselves?

Just wanted to make a quick not of this, I had Jester dialog get stuck in a loop of giving tanker boom direction. I also noted that I think the tanker failed to tell me that my refuel was complete. I do not have a track and it was on a MP server but maybe its worth describing the parameters. I was tanking and had a couple fall offs and had to reset and hop back on the boom. I noticed that it seemed the gauge hadn't moved in a while and my tank full lights still hadn't illuminated. I know the gauges don't show tank amounts so I stayed on for a while longer but never lit up. Worth noting, i had the tank switch set to my centerline tank and it was on the jet for the duration of the refuel so I'm not sure if not having that off would cause the issue. I used the AAR disconnect button and then also called abort refuel just to be sure. after jester kept repeating the same boom calls over and over again until landed and shut down. Silencing him through the UI did at least work. I may try to force a replication tonight to see if im dumb or if there is a bug i can replicate with a track but its really not a huge deal. The jet has been an absolute joy to fly and the bugs are extremely minor and the types id expect from a new release. You guys have done something very special and I would like to say thank you!

This is correct behavior. Diesel thunder did a video about the fuel system and touched on this. It is due to the system locking out when a sudden disconnect happens so it has to be reset in order to resume flow.

Understand, I figured maybe the new shrike development could be playing a part in why things have become unstable. Appreciate your guys hard work!

For anyone having this issue, I was on the A4E Discord last night and this is a common issue and seems to be on ED side. After some testing last night, out of about 30 shrikes launched in an isolated test mission between 2 aircraft, we had 1 track. Hopefully this will get fixed soon. I do have a post open in weapon bugs report currently. Maybe @BIGNEWY will see this as well.
