Is there a way to change the white date/time display on the top left to the opaque view with LAT/LON rather than the bright white? Thanks

Check out this tutorial. Advice is that you use notepad++ to edit the file rather than notepad. Much easier.

I've created a mission with a quick spawn for some A2A activity. Is there a way for me to spawn my F-16 with the HMCS ON already? Seems like DMS aft long only works if the knob is turned fully first. I've seen MP missions where it is on hot on ramp. Thanks

I'm also finding it impossible to differentiate between the search, track, system, bugged targets.

I've been flying this same mission at 0300hrs, autumn night, no fog, and TCN/ILS seem to work.

OK. I've been trying (with no success) with some fog and wind. TACAN/ILS doesn't work. I set the weather to a clear day, and it WORKS??!! Attached is the mission file with weather. Am I doing anything wrong?? F-16C - IFR TACAN & ILS - NV - 0800hrs.miz

I'm using open beta

I've had no issue with at least Khasab on the PG map.

Has anyone experienced issues with TACAN/ILS on the NTTR map in the Viper? I've tried Nellis AFB TACAN 12X, ILS 109.1MHz 208 True It doesn't seem to line up with the runway. TACAN range is all wrong. I've also tried McCarran and the same.

Try using TMS Aft in CCRP mode. That will get the TGP to slave to the boresight. The cage/uncage button I use to search for a laser via JTAC

This does re-align it. Thanks. Turns out that the wind is the culprit.

Not sure if this an F-16 issue or not, but place an F-16 anywhere, in the air on the Nevada map. Change the weather to anything other than 'Default Weather' and the HUD is all messed up..or offset. The attached screenshot is summer with heavy thunderstorms. Day or night doesn't matter. Flight path marker will center when at 0 degrees heading. Is this a known bug for just the F-16 on this map? No issues on the PG map. https://imgur.com/a/QQ8hZWh

Once i have a point lock, I break orbit, turn into the target until the steering line is in the center of the flight path marker.

This is the trick that worked for me. Here's my procedure that works online and offline: 1. A-G Mode 2. CCRP Mode 3. TGP Mode 4. TGP SOI 5. TMS AFT - Recenter Target Designator 6. Aim at general direction of target and hit RDR Cursor Left, Right, Up OR Down 7. Orbit target at a distance, right turn 35-45 degrees 8. Area Scan to target 9. Point Scan for moving target 10. Perform CCRP run 11. Weapons release and don't forget to Laze

It must be modeled for the KC135 because it's being done here with the Viper. You can see the range:

So what's the difference between A-A TACAN and normal? Actually, from the Viper manual: A/A T/R. TACAN operates in Air-to-Air transceiver mode and provides bearing, range, deviation, and station identification with a TACAN-equipped aircraft. T/R. The TACAN acts in a transceiver mode (send and receive) and provides bearing, range, deviation and station identification. This will be your most common selection. probably a bug or WiP

I'm not able to get range to show up either in A-A T/R. MIDS LVT is on, TACAN needle works because it guides me to the tanker. Grim Reaper example shows the tanker range. Either I'm missing something or it's a WiP

Check this out: Grim Reapers put this out Oct 10/2019 so this was pre Oct 11 update. Can clearly see that CBU-97 immediate release. I've only started learning this post update and can't replicate this. Is this a bug???
