Bounder Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 Hi Mastiff, could you maybe post some more info and a track if possible? Is it in single player or multiplayer you are having the problems, are you running latest version of DCS and is it standalone or steam. I just updated to latest patch (standalone v1.2.12.35194) and tried the Dora from cold start mission (single player) and upon takeoff my guns worked just fine. My PC specs: Win10 64 Pro, CPU i7-3820 4.4GHz, 16GB RAM, GPU Nvidia 1070 (8gb vram). Controls: Microsoft FFB2, Thrustmaster Warthog Throttle, MFG Crosswind Pedals, TrackIR5.

I just updated to latest patch (standalone v1.2.12.35194) and tried the Dora from cold start mission (single player) and upon takeoff my guns worked just fine. Yes the latest update; it's the furball mission in quick missions. Worked fine before the update. "any failure you meet, is never a defeat; merely a set up for a greater come back", W Forbes.

Bounder Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 Ok just flew that mission (Mission->Dora->Furball) and guns work fine once airbourne (see attached track).

Bounder Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 Dunno what else to try - as you can see from the track I uploaded the guns are working fine for me on the same mission, with little to go on it might be helpful to upload a track. All the best. My PC specs: Win10 64 Pro, CPU i7-3820 4.4GHz, 16GB RAM, GPU Nvidia 1070 (8gb vram). Controls: Microsoft FFB2, Thrustmaster Warthog Throttle, MFG Crosswind Pedals, TrackIR5.

All the best. here's what's happening when I make gun sight changes the guns will not fire? but if I leave the gun sight alone the guns fire?:joystick: "any failure you meet, is never a defeat; merely a set up for a greater come back", W Forbes.

Bounder Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 I tried making gunsight changes including adjusting sight distance, sight wingspan, gyro on/off (switch right of gunsight "EZ42 powerswitch"), the EZ42 gunsight adjustment unit (right side cockpit, behind circuit breakers) all to no avail (guns still work). Silly question but you don't mean that you're turning the "master arm" switch left of the gunsight, sitting in between the ammo counters on/off as this will turn the guns on/off?

Flagrum Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 A silly question perhaps ... ... but why don't you just post a track, OP?
71st_Mastiff Posted December 16, 2014 Author Posted December 16, 2014 because I'm busy trying to make it work, and now I found out why. you need to add throttle to disengage the interrupter.:thumbup: and just call me mastiff.
