Certainly seems like it needs some refining. There was also an issue with the HUD symbology not fitting when using Track IR unless you moved forwards so wonder if this was a way to fix that issue but as you say it’s very strange when turning your head, makes using mirrors difficult and also the top row of OSB buttons are partially hidden.

I always hated the look of that rope and now it’s back :)

Yeah but looking at the bugs section this is broken and has been reported. The TTI is just not displayed.

I just tried several LGB drops after designating with TGP. There is no TTI displayed in bottom right corner of TGP screen nor HUD. Auto lase does not turn on. How did you get this working Skypickle? Seems bugged to me like mentioned above?

Trying to fly the A10 this morning and it’s so hard to use the HUD. Maybe it’s fixed in the new A10 but it’s no good in the current one. I don’t use VR but on a monitor with Track IR I’m constantly having to move head positions to see all the info at one.

Great price, might even gift a couple to friends hard up right now with loss of income

The amount of comments and questions regarding difficulties with what’s implemented right now is evidence that something from the system is missing or not working as intended. I too am intrigued as to how JeffreyC claims there is no problem and all is working fine for him. I have spent a lot of time trying to figure out a consistent sequence but am unable. Hopefully next update will fine tune things to be more useable.

Have a look through verified bugs as these issues have been raised and reported. Hopefully a fix will come with next update

Hey all, thanks for the input. I’ll pass on the info & and good idea with the A4..... easier than the SU-25 and a great free starting jet.

Ok thanks, never kept track of past sales so good to get an idea, thanks

Well was worth a go :) Thanks

Have a friend who wants the F-16 but is only just starting his DCS adventure. Are any DCS sales coming up soon?

I experience the same behavior. The HSD showed the steerpoint in the correct position however the HUD was directing me in another direction much further away.

Are the issues and workarounds discussed in this thread recognized now as bugs by dev team ? Or does it stay as cannot reproduce and that’s it? If more information is needed happy to try and provide it so we can get this corrected.

The TGP slaves to the CCIP pipper so you can use laser ranging for an accurate computation before release. I think that’s what one of the manuals mentions.

Yes as soon as you switch on HMCS and look out it is there....... no specific steps to reproduce it’s like it now by default and no way to change it.

BuzzU if you have an asymmetric loadout mainly with TGP on right cheek it is an issue and jet does not go straight without pilot input.

Will try this shortly, is this correct or even documented anywhere? *Edit Sacarino111 Yes what you describe with TMS down does put the boresight cross to the primary means of aiming overriding the HMCS. I would welcome a devs comments on this to confirm whether this is intended and is the correct way of operating the DCS viper..........

Thanks for the info, what I would expect. Hopefully we found the issue and development team can take a look and make adjustments as needed.

Exactly

Yes agree Tom, trying it now and that is what’s happening. So to summarize: Firstly DGFT No Radar mode does not work and automatically locks first target within HUD. Secondly HMCS symbology when switched off continues to override HUD bore cross making a lock very difficult. Question? Should HUD symbology over ride HMCS symbology when looking through it?? I would of thought so but............

So after turning the HMCS off using the rotary knob forward of throttle I cannot now get a bore lock through HUD using TMS within the cross. So is there another switch I am missing to turn it off?

Ok firstly when you switch to DGFT and do nothing else are you getting a lock on a target within the HUD because I am. If so this in incorrect as it should be a no radar mode. Bore does work correctly if you switch to it fast enough. So I’m trying to track down issue with HMCS affecting it. I’m sitting here going through it over and over again. I will experiment with what you say. Thanks

Automatic lock occurs as soon as you switch to DGFT without even needing TMS up to Bore sub mode but should not. Try Turning HMCS on for a while using it then turn it off And try Bore mode again. This is where it will not lock for me.
