Hi, I have this strange issue with the F-16 in Multiplayer (VR) when I equip a TGP and Mavericks. Request Rearm -> add TGP, Mavs etc -> Rearming complete -> power on TGP, Power on Mav. Wait for TGP to timeout -> - screen is black, slew will result in the Mav in Pre mode to slew (TGP is SOI) - point lock will display point in tgp but nothing is visible - TV/WHot/BHot can be changed via Hotas control but pressing the MFD button will not do anything (button is pressed, no option changes) - MFD standby button works - MFD FOV button does not work - hotas button will change the wide/narrow readout on the MFD though Can't figure out when this happens. seems random hence extremely difficult to reproduce Removing the TGP and then equipping it again including TGP power off first does not solve the issue. Changing slots to a different F16 is the only way to get it to work. Anyone with the same issue?

I just dusted off the TGP as I have never used it. Watched a couple of tutorials followed instructions and bingo... bombs don't release? No idea why - I am aware that there are possibly numerous reasons so I have included a few screen shots.

Hi, So not used the Hornet in a while and decided to try the 1989 Task Force challenger campaign today. Mission one has a bunch of enemy aircraft grouped together and heading straight towards my flight. For the life of me I cannot get them to appear on the radar, azimuth scan and elevation all good, RWS, TWS within about 20 miles but nothing, then some appear, then disappear. Their aspect is head on and they don't really maneuver at all. Is something horribly messed up with the Hornet radar in OpenBeta at present? I've read the posts re ECM "blinking" but I'm guessing this isn't related (unless the AI are that smart to utilise the same method). Regards, Z

Me and my AI wingman are on a CAP mission. No awacs, so we rely on what we see on our own radars. Then my wingman shouts out a contact. Why doesn't that contact appear on my FCR and HSD through L16? Because if I ask my wingman to "engage bandits", then it pops up. Is there something I'm missing? Is it possible if I push button X or Y?

cannot reproduce and missing track file F/A-18C gun mode
Red_Camarada posted a topic in DCS: F/A-18C
Did they changed the gun sight on the gun mode after the latest update? -
As topic suggests, I find that the tires on the BS3 have almost no grip. Its like every taxiway and runway is covered in ice. When trying to taxi I can go sideways just as easily as I can go forwards, turning corners on taxiways is a nightmare. Also, the wheel brakes seem to do nothing, but this could also be due to lack of grip. Is this actually intended, is this how a real helo would actually work, given its a 10 ton machine with decently powerful engines? Or is this a bug and the grip coefficient of the tires is set stupidly low?

I found that the gun's laser ranging result would slowly change with time even if my helicopter is landed on the ground with wheel brakes enabled and is aiming the terrain in front of me. In the screenshot you can see the ranging result is ridiculously large and it's actually continuously increasing at a rate around 1.0/minute. (but it seems to be capped at 15.0) Another screenshot showing that the nearby vehicle being targeted. Laser ranging shouldn't be affected by INS, so I guess it's because DCS is calculating the laser ranging result between the laser point's location and helicopter's INS location instead of helicopter's actual location. BTW, I also found that the AUTO TURN TO TARGET is also affected by INS time-accumulated error so it will not be able to even roughly aim towards the target (off boresight angle could be as large as 45 degrees or even bigger).

cannot reproduce and missing track file MavFs fixed but now not?
CBStu posted a topic in DCS: F/A-18C
A couple of months ago I decided to give up on MavF use w/ a pod. Since then I usually either skip user file missions that use MavF or try it but using the Mav seeker only and no pod. 2-3 weeks ago something changed and suddenly moving tanks etc, are bright white and the Mav seeker locks on wonderfully. But yesterday I was flying a mission that I had had problems with hitting the tanks/trucks and always got shot down. Figured I would just keep hitting L shift-R and try different techniques. Well, he11, Mav F is back to it's old self. It won't lock on to anything in the convoy tried 3 times and same result. Jeez, am I missing something? -
I’ve been having issues guiding AIM-7s when the target is outside the ASE circle on the HUD. I fire at the target once the steering cue or target is within the ASE but once the target is out of the ASE, the missiles sometimes just stops tracking. Has anyone else had this issue and is this intentional/normal or is this a problem with the Hornet’s Sparrow guidance. FYI, I am unable to provide a track at the moment since I’m away from my computer.

I fly the F18 for some time now. One thing that goes wrong more often than not, is the GPS alignment. Both in mulitplayer as in campaigns. I follow the start up procedure that is basically: battery on, APU on, Starting engines, then GND or CVN alignment, HSI- STD HDG-. Than finger crossed it goes well an it ends with verdict "Qual OK" and i switch to IFA mode. But it frequently happens that it is aligning and before it ends in a OK it says No ATT. Then i just put in IFA (i noticed that since 2.8 it then is able to start aligning in air, which saves the day then for me). I was wondering if this is a known issue, or is a fix i can do when i get message NO ATT? It can be a pain in the ass to fly without AP functions during a CAS mission especially, although it is good for flying skills i'll admit that .

cannot reproduce and missing track file No FLIR option on DDI
HoneyViper posted a topic in DCS: F/A-18C
Hey guy, I'm doing a JDAM training mission. I make sure that I have the FLIR switch to ON, but when I go to the TAC page the FLIR option doesn't appear. I fly around for a few minutes wondering if it will eventually appear but it doesn't. Is there something I'm doing wrong? -
I started trying to learn autopilot in f18c and i got problem with BALT because planes starts to wiggle more and more until it turns off BALT i couldnt find any answers yet soo im asking im quite new and im just playing with keyboard soo maybe that is answer?

cannot reproduce and missing track file Cant move the TADS sometimes
Buhli posted a topic in DCS: AH-64D
Hi all, sometimes when i fly to the target, bring the bird into a hover and switching to the CPG position, i can't move the TADS anymore. I select it as my sight and then ... nothing. Is there a lock or something? If i switch on the ground to the CPG position, move the TADS and switch back to the pilot seat it will work when i switch back after reaching the target area. Do i something wrong? -
Just curious on what experience other F16 drivers in DCS have on: AGM154: Hardly makes any damage to fairly soft targets like SAM launchers, trucks, APC. No damage on soldiers... CBU105: I've never been able to get release in VIS mode on first target run. I always have to go around and make a second run, then I am able to release the CBU105s perfectly. Makes no sense to me...

cannot reproduce and missing track file Radar lock issue
bigern311 posted a topic in DCS: F-16C Viper
Hello! I am relatively new to learning to implement an aircraft as a weapons platform so please bear with me. I am having an issue in being able to cage or lock on to a target in the F-16. I have the Master Arm on and am in air-to-air mode and can slew the cursor around to follow the target on the MFD but cannot lock on to that target to save my life! Help me please!!! -
cannot reproduce and missing track file Ah-64 losing control
giullep posted a topic in Bugs and Problems
Hello guys why when I switch from CPG to pilot, after launching missiles for example and then I was in static flight, back in the pilot role the helicopter loses control madly and almost always crashes ..!? Some advice? -
I'm going nuts over this one. Every now and then I get into missions where the author have set the Viper up for a hot start. What happens is it immediately starts rolling and accelerating, even when my throttle is set to idle (and the virtual in-cockpit rendition of the throttle seems to match that). I have set the v-cockpit to sync with my hardware's position so I'm not sure what can be the cause of this. I also seem to be the only one in my group with this issue. Any hints are welcome

Hi guys, I am new to the DCS as player but I been observing what is happening in DCS for a while. So, I installed F16C and at the moment I am going through training missions. All of this is clear to me, but when I go to mission editor, I create just target practice mission so I can practice all routines to engage in BVR fight. This is where I noticed problems, I created firstly 2 MIG 21 and I tried to engage them in BVR. However, my radar couldn't find any targets until I approached at about 15 NM, when is too late to engage 2 MIG's. So to explore more, I modified mission so I start at 40000 feet, with 2 MIG's dead ahead at 80 NM and 30000 feet, and still my radar couldn't find target in RWS mode, I tried to swap to TWS mode but still nothing, same, when I came closer to about 12 NM I had target found on radar. Just to be sure I tied another mission where I put bigger target, AN 22 same story. I tried with AWACS on my side, and I can see target on the radar but I cannot do any thing with it again until I came very close. This is only doing in mission editor. When I go to instant action, and select free flight, I can scan everything as it should. Am I doing something wrong here?? I watched many Youtube videos on that subject, and I cannot see that I am doing something wrong. Cheers...
