Can no longer switch targets with the AGM-88 in TOO
Shimmergloom667 replied to Flogger23m's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
It always was RAID/HARM/Flir as a keybind, so something must have been busted on your end earlier, if you could use NWS/Undesignate for that. -

Flew SEAD today with the squad, no issues with HARM TOO handoff. -
user mod caused error Maverick AGM-65F no Crosshairs
Shimmergloom667 replied to mutz's topic in Bugs and Problems
It looks like you have a display mod installed, since the font colour of your DDIs looks off, unless that screenshot just looks weird -
not planned accurate for version Chaff/Flare Dispenser
Shimmergloom667 replied to Solbaru's topic in Wish List
Doesn't matter for DCS - no USN/USMC = no DCS Hornet -
That one is not yet fully implemented

investigating Track File Incorrect Position when landing on Carrier
Shimmergloom667 replied to GeoS72's topic in Bugs and Problems
The thought is: it's just how track replays work. They record all inputs made to the birds in order to essentially replay whatever happens. Due to the intricacies of this, at some point (specially in longer tracks) desyncs WILL occur and stuff will go wrong. Essentially the track replay is not a "video replay" function, but a debug function to log stuff that happened and see how it affected the simulation - but you would use shorter, isolated tracks of the incident you want to debug / file a bug report on for that. -
Redkite makes the best indepth videos, Wags' own videos are great as well, of course - I wouldn't go the video-way of learning, though (but that's me, it's just taking too long) but rather grab Chuck's Guide to the Hornet: https://www.mudspike.com/chucks-guides-dcs-f-a-18c-hornet/

Source for that? I mean, we DO have more than on/off in the A-10...

Slewing the AGM-65F when locked with ARFLIR
Shimmergloom667 replied to 84-Simba's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
But you said it takes all of 5 minutes: put a target on a map, hop in a Hornet and verify that the Mav isn't slewing when it's been handed off from another sensor. Where's that 1+ hour coming from? -
Slewing the AGM-65F when locked with ARFLIR
Shimmergloom667 replied to 84-Simba's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
What are you talking about a GoPro? If you can reliably reproduce the issue, why don't you create the requested track yourself? Do what you said: take those 5 minutes to put a target on a map, hop in a Hornet and verify that the Mav isn't slewing when it's been handed off from another sensor. Finish mission -> save track -> upload track to your bug report -> done. -
fixed F/A-18C Hornet TWS messed up by ghost target
Shimmergloom667 replied to Max Mak's topic in Bugs and Problems
That said: is the discrepancy between age-out of the *bricks* and actual age.out of the trackfiles being worked upon? Because the latter shouldn't age out to begin with. -
investigating Console and instruments lights too bright

It's you -
reported earlier Hornet still ballooning after bolter.
Shimmergloom667 replied to nicka117's topic in Bugs and Problems
They are knee-deep in the FM review, Bignewy said so in several bug reports lately. It's coming sooner rather than later, now. -
correct as is Dimmer in the fuel panel
Shimmergloom667 replied to Underscore's topic in Bugs and Problems
It only works when you set the interior lighting to "NITE". Did you set it such? -
Thanks, but no thanks. Single Player is perfectly fine. (that said: I play MP a bit, but strictly PvE with people I know)

correct as-is Litening TGP Magnification wrong?
Shimmergloom667 replied to Jafferson's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
Of course we can compare the LITENING to the LANTIRN. While the LITENING (and you are right in that we probably have the LITENING II AT in all LITENING equpped birds) should deliver a somewhat higher clarity than the LANTIRN, it absolutely should have digital zoom and the associated loss of resolution modeled, resulting in blobs similar, but maybe not as bad as the LANTIRN. There. I compared the two. Bottom line: our LITENING is overperforming since forever, in the A-10, the F-18 and F-16. THAT should be tuned, and would consequently make the ATFLIR (and in future the SNIPER) stand out more. I am fairly certain we will see those things modeled when the IR render rework arrives at some point in the future. -
Why is LTD/R automatically switching back to OFF

Fair enough. -
Weapon Release brevity code words. Let's talk!
Shimmergloom667 replied to S. Low's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
The most recent revision of the MULTI-SERVICE TACTICS, TECHNIQUES, AND PROCEDURES FOR MULTI-SERVICE BREVITY CODES, short BREVITY is from May 2020: https://armypubs.army.mil/ProductMaps/PubForm/Details.aspx?PUB_ID=1009227 While there is indeed no brevity call for JDAMs or GBUs per se, you could say that: PINBALL [A/A] [A/S] Laser guided munition has separated from its launching vehicle and captured laser designator. Is related to LGBs, but more relevant is the actual JTAC operation: if you read up in the JP 3-09.3 on CAS, you will see that the talk on process with the JTAC clearly defines the munitions to be used during the gameplan and 9-line, so when the pilot is cleared hot and performs the laser-related comms for use of LGBs, or announces the release of the weapons in question during attack ("1 away, off to the north" or whatever), the JTAC will exactly know what is on it's way, without the need for a specific brevity code. Compare that to the more dynamic, less structured nature of air to air combat, ASuW, etc. where that sort of comms are not in place, thus creating the need for call-outs to give a picture of the weapons in employ. -

missing info UFC empty in training exercise (bombs)
Shimmergloom667 replied to Double Dutch's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
Upload a track, please, or no one will be able to look into it. UFC is working without issue for me. Which training mission are you struggling with, exactly? -
[KNOWN ISSUE WIP] Wheel Chocks Issues
Shimmergloom667 replied to MrNewLife's topic in Bugs and Problems
Hey IronMike, sorry for the quote, just one small question: on the facebook DCS group someone said you told him via PM that ED refuses to give you guys the "wheel chocks code", which seems pretty ridiculous. I'd agree that wheel chocks are super low priority and I am not here to nag you about it, just wondering if you could confirm that ridiculous "refuse to share code" statement. Thanks! -
Maybe it's time to fix this maybe kind of ?
Shimmergloom667 replied to Csgo GE oh yeah's topic in Bugs and Problems
What do you expect from someone who literally has "CSGO" mentioned in his user name. You'd kinda think these air-quakers would stick to Ace Combat. -
Zero curves, always - it's the only linear input which keeps the movement inputs 100% predictable. No matter the hardware, I always fly zero curves - with my old X56, with a Warthog, with my VKB setup. It only comes down to training, a gentle touch, more training, not being so hamfisted and more training. It IS complicated, and great hardware may make it a bit more accessible - but I know people refueling while flying with keyboard, so blaming the hardware is just an excuse.

Nope, the callout is IAS

When you initally call the tanker it will report to you it's speed and altitude.
