Babushka Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Hi there. Dunno if there are any threads about this, apologies if I've duplicated one! But I'm desperate. Any news of any new updates/patch for the MIG-21Bis afterburner bug? :helpsmilie: Since the latest update, whenever I go to max power, or into 'afterburner' the engine rpm gauge won't go past 100%. Or are there anything new I've missed?? I've checked that there are no binding errors. The Emergency Afterburner and afterburner switches on the left panel are 'as is' (which is at default, and I guess nobody ever touches). Without afterburners I can't continue any mission - 'cos obviously I can't dogfight. I'm stuck and grounded. :( DCS on OSX. Virtual pilot for 28 years. Love the warbirds and Cold-War era aircrafts.
Hadwell Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 (edited) for the afterburner to work, there's the afterburner switch, next to the engine relight switch, that's the main afterburner, so map an easy to access key to that, it's called Afterburner/Maximum on/off in the controls, and then directly infront of the throttle, next to the aileron booster switch, there's the 2nd afterburner switch, map a key to that too, called emergency afterburner on/off in the controls. there is no afterburner bug, it works just fine. take a look at my youtube channel if you don't believe me.

BaconSarnie Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Engine RPM wont go past 100%, it goes to 100% You can tell the afterburner is lit by the notification in red in the warning lights panel Watch from here and you can see what happens mate. And lo, Reverend Vegas did say "Take forth unto the infidel the mighty GAU 8 and expend its holy 30MM so that freedom will be brung upon them who knoweth not the joys of BBBBBBBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTTT" "Amen"
PE_Tigar Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 (edited) @Babushka - you don't control the throttle with keyboard commands, do you? Edited March 31, 2016 by PE_Tigar
Hadwell Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 (edited) at 2:05 that's with the afterburner off, it's at 100%, at 2:06 it's at about 103%, and then at 2:32, it's at 105% Edited March 31, 2016 by Hadwell My youtube channel Remember: the fun is in the fight, not the kill, so say NO! to the AIM-120.

urpark Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 I dont understand why you open up another thread. This Problem already gets discussed here: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=162457 And you are also a part of this discussion since March 25th. As you probably read there, it is a bug using the buttons for the throttle which got already fixed. It just depends on, when the patch will come out. It does not get released quicker, if you open up more threads about it :lol: Regarding the patch, I posted some news. In the actual thread. Happy Landings!

Ok yup sorry for that, I answered that thread and opened a new one in 'desperation'. Haven't been on this forum for a long while. :( We'll continue on the other thread then. DCS on OSX.
