zerO_crash Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 Seems to me like the pipper is ways off. I'm taking into account terrain elevation, differences, dive angle, etc... Hasn`t been like this before 1.5.4. And after thorough testing, it seems like the pipper is next to useless. Never been a problem until now. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Frederf Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 Hopefully that's due to fixes. The sight isn't supposed to do any calculation at all. You put it in bombing, manual and crank in an angles setting from the book and that's it. The manuals are dead silent on the concept of switches in bombing, auto. Even 50mm and 240mm rockets are supposed to just be a fixed pipper depression (mean angular correction) in auto.
Art-J Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 I admit I haven't tested in 1.5.4 U3 yet, but I liked gunsight's A-G functionality in U2, at least with fuselage cannon and S5 or S24 rockets. The combo of fixed auto depression + "launch" & "break attack" lights allowed getting some good accuracy within dive angles and speeds suggested by the manual. OK, the launch distances didn't seem to be quite as per manual, but if I was hitting the practice targets, that was good enough for me. Wasn't happy with the fact that a bit of CCIP code is still left there in bombing mode, but with the whole sight being WIP, I'm not pulling my hair put (don't have it anyway :D). I didn't test the weapons in the mountains though, only on flat Sukhumi airbase. i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.

But at this point, bombs don`t hit close to the marker. And proper approaches in my case is like religion, I don`t go at approx. 30, I go AT 30 Deg (to give an example) :thumbup: Couple that with already weak bombs (hope they fix it one day)...

zerO_crash Posted August 11, 2016 Author Posted August 11, 2016 Guess I figured it, was two older mission that were giving this inaccuracy...:music_whistling: Checked with a newer mission, and works as intended. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
