Can't Fire Rockets in 2.0.4

[SnowTiger]

I haven't had any issues firing rockets (ground attack) in 1.5 Open Beta but I cannot seem to get them to work in 2.5 Open Alpha (or whatever it is now ?).

 

Is it just me ?

 

PS> I had no idea that the Gun Camera actually works in 2.5. The camera window does Not show in 1.5.

But I'd like to know how to Not See It in flight but maybe view it after a flight (like watching a track file .. which is what I thought it was if anything).

hey ST - did you check your keymappings and see if any lines are highlighted in red - this indicates a conflicting keymapping. I had some p51 keys go wonky after the last update too.

This does work in both 1.5 and 2.0. Under Options / Special / F5 you can have it On, Off, or Track Only.

I'll look into the Options re: Track

 

Dooom >> Yesterday was the first time in 5 months that I even bothered clicking on DCS 2, however I have continued to keep it up-to-date with updates as they have been made available.

 

I use the same Hotas Profiles in both OpenBeta and OpenAlpha and as such, haven't noticed any conflicts.

I have spent a few hours practicing rocket runs (single and ripple fire) in OpenBeta but for some reason, I can't fire rockets at all in OpenAlpha.

 

I'll play with it a bit more today to see if it's something I'm missing and report back with the results. If worse comes to worst, I'll just leave Alpha alone for a few more months.

 

Thanks guys.

Woah?! 2.5?!!!

2.5 OpenAlpha or whatever it is as of last Friday

It's 2.0.4

So while I did have everything set up correctly, it appears what I missed was the Data Breaker tripping and resetting it does NOT correct the issue. But that is why I was unable to fire the rockets.

I got in there today and had zero problems .... until I did whatever it takes for the Data Breaker to trip again. Otherwise it all went really well. So Problem Solved.

 

And I got the Gun Cam Window shut off in-game.

 

Thanks again.

Yesterday I had this issue with rockets not firing in one mission in current 1.5 (did several sorties and only once happened). Everything was correctly configured: jettison, A/G and stores. I have it recorded, will try to check whether that breaker was out or not.

I have been checking the video and the problem was that I had dogfight missile (DM) mode selected. I didn't notice because it lost lock and it seemed like normal radar search.
