CCRP Training - Bombs do not drop

[Sydy]

Hi Gents,

 

I am trying to fly the CCRP training mission and something is wrong. I did exactly as the briefing, some tutorials, videos and guides, but bombs do not leave the pylons.

 

Gnd tgt lock is set all right in my hotas already.

 

What I do:

- EM on the radar

- Radio Alt on (M)

- Master arm ON

- BL1 selected

- TAS selected

- 02 bombs selected

- 00 interval

- INST selected

- Close to tgt (less than 10NM) I drop the nose a bit and mark the tgt

- Follow the guide lines

- Wait for the Release Cue

(this is my problem now)

I tried everything like:

- Pressing and hold space a bit before release cue on the diamond;

- Pressing when release cue is over the diamond

- The same and holding for two seconds.

 

The bombs just don't drop from the pylon.

 

Is there something wrong guys or is it me?

 

I thank you in advance for any help,

 

Sydy

Gents,

 

Just tested in a mission I created and everything worked fine. I am doing the right procedure. Maybe something went kaput in the training mission?

 

Hope it's a good heads up.

 

All the best,

Just tried it. Indeed, it's buggy.

 

@ BD: you've set 'start waiting user response' but not 'stop waiting...' afterwards (in the next trigger).

As a result, the space bar is "locked" for use, and can't be used to release weapons (its usual feature).

 

Also:

The radar needs to be switched to "Emitting" (missing instruction)

The TAS is already selected by default (no need to press its button)

The default way of doing CCRP in this aircarft is not a level run, but a dive/climb run.

What's the key to lock a ground target?

Frank,

 

That's the trick, there is none. You have to go to the Options, search for "MAGIC SLAVE/AG DESIGNATE" and assign something to it. I assigned Left Shift+T.

 

Good luck!

 

All the best,

Cool tips, AZ!!! Tks for confirming it's buggy!

 

Take care,

Thanks guys, new version of training uploaded in the main thread. All should be fine now (stop wait response added, new line and VO about switching radar to EM added, TAS part removed). The only thing I didn't do is changing the way the bombs are delivered. Hope this helps!

Thanks BD :)

Thanks, I was struggling with this training mission as I couldn´t lock the ground targets. I tried always by pressing the lock function for air targets.

Maybe some hind in the spoken text of the mission would be helpful for trainees?;)

I don't want to record an additional VO for that, but happy to add it as a text message during the mission. Thanks for the feedback!
