Spasticatedtoad Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 (edited) Whilst trying to figure out how to Fire Rockets and Drop bombs from the F-86, I found that I had in fact dispensed a Green Wireframe Box that will appear on the ground below the point I hit the Weapon Release button. At this point, I was trying to discover for myself how to fire weapons and was trying different combo's of switches to see what happened. When I drop the box, I have LABS Turned on, weapons set up to fire a rocket ( or drop a bomb ) and when I hit the Release weapon button, all I get is a tone upon each press. I know this is not the correct routine for firing such weapons, but thought I should report what I see in case it turns out to be useful. Below is a few screenies to show the box I describe. If need be, I can produce a Track file to help figure it out. Edited July 30, 2014 by Spasticatedtoad
Strut Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 (edited) Its LABS - its a system designed to help you "Toss Bomb conventional and deliver Tac Nukes. . A good explanation here : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toss_bombing and a good vid done by xxJohnxx here: Just an edit, -yeah i agree with Skatezilla and Skull about the wire frame, but as Skull said when you press Weapons Release it comes up - its part of the set up for the LABS, when you've pressed the weps release you are over the target going vertical to hold 4g's to commence the "bomb lob". The "box represents where you started the manoeuvre from i believe.

SkateZilla Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 I don't think it's supposed to be visible, it's a Wireframe box prolly left on in testing.

Skulleader Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 Hello, About the green box now we know this problem. When you switch ON the "Start Lab A-4" and you press the button "Release Weapon" this green box appear on the ground or the air, in fact in the place where you are when you press your button. Bye, Skull.

Spasticatedtoad Posted July 30, 2014 Author Posted July 30, 2014 Hi everyone, thanks for the reply and sorry for reporting the same problem. I had a look around for similar threads, but did not find one. Knowing my luck, it was probably right in front of me. That's where I miss seeing most things. :) Glad to see it's not just me that see's it. :D
