I'm all for simulation and love sims that cover only one aircraft with 1000 page manual. Play them all. But for a beginner, it should be easier way to lunch a weapon. This missile lunching question comes up all the time, over and over again. I think the problem is with using two keys combined that have to be pressed for few seconds. It's nice to unwrap the box, grab keyboard commend list and take off to blow things up, just to see if the game is worth reading 1000 page manual. That is what I always do. Also, why the traning videos where not carried over from Lock-On to FC2.

I know exactly how you feel. I was in the same boat. Flying around using just guns and for the life of me couldn't figure out how to lunch a missile. This is one thing that should have been changed long time ago. Half the people that buy the sim can not figure out how to lunch missiles even after studying the manual. Training videos in Cliffs 2 have nothing on it. You have to play original Lock-On to get the missile training. In IMHO I should be able to switch to given missle be pressing D and press trigget to fire. No other crap. But nooo, you have to press right ALT and Space and hold it for a minute to get it go if you lucky to fly an airplaine that can do that. Russian aircraft will not even let you fire the missiles unless you get all the parameters correct. What happened to be able to fire all the missiles on the plane within few seconds regardless where they will fly. Isn't that how you jettison all the weapons for emergency landing.

It's all working again. My logitec wireless keyboard battery was dead. It works with single key presses but dies when two keys are pressed combined (guess not enough power). Thanks for the help guys.

Yes, I had my Wingman programmed for the planes I fly. I think it's my keyboard acting up. Going down to do some digging in the garage for other keyboard.

Reinstalled and still the same.

I can't fire any missiles even if I fly with just a keyboard. I can drop bombs, fire rockets but can not fire single missile in the entire game. I have been playing Lock-on for five years, Before that Flanker 2.0 and 2.5. I'm going to try to re-install.

I just installed Flaming Cliff 2 and can't fire any guided missiles from any airplanes except Su25. I know this is A-10C forum, but the CF2 forum is dead. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I can fire all the weapons in Lock-on v1.2 but not in FC2. In Lock-On, I just hit #6, press D to switch to AIM-9M, get a lock and fire. In CF2 I get a lock, Betty screaming to shoot, jet nothing happens when I press Space or trigger. I only can fire guns so for the last three days I have been flying with guns only. I checked my input setting in CF2 to make sure my keyboard is not remapped, but everything is the same as Lock-On. Please help. I'm going nuts. I know there use to be Master Arm in Lock-on but can't find anything about it in CF2.
