Which log is this and location? And have you failed to update to the latest Open Beta, if that's what you're using
-
JTAC will do this if you have several targets in close proximity and you kill one "out of order" due to collateral damage
-
Yep https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=224406

Yeah, I have the FOV mapped and the only way I can change it is by clicking on cockpit button
-
I was wondering this as well...can you please tell me how much free space, on your game install drive, do you have?
-
Uh, expect more problems with locking up a SAM...pretty sure it has already been reported as a bug...Listen carefully at the nine line, every SAM I've gone after, the JTAC will say he's using WP (Willie Pete = White Phosphorus) smoke grenade rather than lasing it....I have managed to get the JTAC to say he wanted the AGM65 and he took it all the way to IP Continue...after that, I never got a laser from him that would lock the target....let me know if you get a kill on a SAM with a MAV

Thank you!!! And happy T-day, BS340

Some very interesting options, guys...thanks for the feedback...what would be nice is if I could have a list of ALL the ACM modes including "The Helmut" modes listed in order to show their min-> max distance ranges along with lateral gimbal limits so we could prioritize them...for example. when is LACQ better than Boresight or WACQ; I can remember in the early days that VACQ was your go to radar for in close turning, yank and bank furballs...is that still the better mode or is HACQ the new replacement?
-
For awhile the AACQ was not being enabled by Castle Right which is how I had it bound...it is now, sorry for the confusion...but it makes you wonder if some of these other ACM modes is just a redundancy...so I'm sure there's a difference between Boresight and AACQ, but I just don't see it especially with HACQ and LACQ which are now also added to the methods of tracking...maybe we need more :thumbup:
-
Sorry if this has been covered, but I just want to make sure I can make use of the switch I currently have bound...so, there's no more Auto Acquisition (AACQ) since the JHMCS takes care of that now? Thanks

So, it feels like The Truman Show??? :)

I was flying a ground strike mission with 65s and a FAC on the way to the IP, I was in the middle of my conversation with the JTAC when I get locked by a bandit. I go evasive, and switch A2A, I dodge the first missile incoming and lock up the bandit and (do you know what I'm gonna say next?)........guess
-
No maps of the country Georgia, cause that's where all the missile silos are, including the abandoned ones....:smilewink:
-
Probably, as long as it takes for you to either launch the missile, check out, reply "Unable to comply", fly over the target, or any other way that you don't respond with a SPOT option on the JTAC menu...
-
It's messed up no doubt, but try some freq. other than the default 305...I always clear that out and put in something else...save 127.5 for your carrier and stick with the 130s and up for JTACs...
-
Funny you should ask...I was just flying Multiplayer.miz...not really sure if this was yours, I'm looking at a number of them...this one has four MBTs and two Strelas (I think) and there are two FACs at the target zone...one is a Predator and the other is a Vehicle Group with a TOW vehicle lasing...I have absolutely no problems taking out the tanks in one pass, by spacing the shots with about four seconds between "Rifles"....then I switched to the other FAC by using the other JTAC option which is NOT grayed out and it does indeed give me a Type 2 call (since I have unlimited ammo on) and asks for AGM-65Es..the problem is,the FAC will take me all the way down to LASER and when I turn on my scan and hit F1 to ask for LASER, it will report "LASING" and my scanner NEVER locks all the way up to flying over the target at which time I get a "Target Not Destroyed" comment from the FAC..so that's definitely screwed up...afterwards I decided to take out the Strelas with my gun, since I also had immortal on....I must have had 50 hits on each one and neither took any damage...so that may be part of the bug too, I don't know (One JTAC is 127.5 and the other is 133MHz) so I have 127.5 on comm one and 133 on comm two...as to your question you only ever have to take out what your mission is calling for...I mean you can look for Targets of Opportunity (TOOs), butif SAMs are not on the dinner menu, then I'd try to avoid them...is that what you meant by your question?
-
You should see and use these functions in the ME...if, at the Station load menu, you don't see Missiles in the manu, then you probably have an earlier version of the OB...if Missiles is present but you don't see the LAU 117, AGM-65E as the only weapon to choose in that category, then you probably have the right version, but something else is wrong...which is it?
-
Ok I got it to take out the four MBTs at the airfield but because there are SAMs around I think it's screwing it up...it's a known bug that when SAMs are in the area, AFAC functions do not work...but try using Colt 11 which is the predator...it did give me Type 2 and I was able to attack the tanks...MultiplayerHornet_1.miz is my edit of your original, so keep that in mind so we don't get things mixed up...i'll include it here MultiplayerHornet_1.miz
-
This probably won't work but did you try "Flight" instead of "Wingman 2"? Oh also you have to use a separate frequency for your flight..If you can't find that in your briefing, try Channel C or M in the presets...I forget which one it is
-
Well one thing you can try with just one AFAC is to handoff the target to your wingman...wait until your target is locked then go into the Flight option in the menus and select "Attack My Target"...try that until I can think about the other possibilities

How to: Lock Aim-9x with JHMD on onto a bandit inside HUD
Alphamale replied to -Painter-'s topic in DCS: F/A-18C
Ah, yep sorry....I thought he was saying to steer so as to put the bandit back out on the periphery -
AI wingman or Multiplayer wingman? Have you tried using two different lasing vehicles?
