Tomcatter87 Posted July 17, 2017 Posted July 17, 2017 (edited) Hello everyone, I have a problem flying the UH-1. I got a new computer and therefore had to re-install DCS world 1.5. Now, I have a problem that never occurred to me before: The door gunners in my huey do not engage at all. I set up a sp mission where the player is to attack enemy infantry, APCs, trucks and rocket artillery - the door gunners don't even aim. It NEVER happened to me before. And yes, they're in the helicopter and their roe are set to fire at will. The co-pilot doesn't use the miniguns when told to, either. Right now, I'm not on my computer. But I suppose theres a newer version of DCS world installed on my new pc - I didnt find anything here about that bug being a part of the most recent update. Anyone knows how I could get my trusted door gunners back? Edited September 1, 2017 by BIGNEWY TITLE "Once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward.

Tomcatter87 Posted July 17, 2017 Author Posted July 17, 2017 Thanks. Glad to hear that I'm not the only one with gunners on strike. They're quite important for my favourite missions...

SnowTiger Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Sometimes it's more fun jumping into the Door Gunner's Seat and doin' the killin' yourself. However, I realize this isn't always the easiest thing to do OR the way a mission is scripted.

Tomcatter87 Posted July 29, 2017 Author Posted July 29, 2017 Yeah, I'm beginning to change my tactics. After firing some rockets, I turn aside about half a mile from the targets and switch to the door gunners. But still I miss them watching my sides while I'm flying...

Tomcatter87 Posted July 31, 2017 Author Posted July 31, 2017 Do you guys know if that rollback to the earlier version 1.5.6 would bring my gunners back? https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=190554 "Once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward.

Angus Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 I'm not 100% sure but i believe gunners works in 1.5.6 . [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Tomcatter87 Posted August 2, 2017 Author Posted August 2, 2017 I'm gonna give it a try. I just read "Chickenhawk" by Robert Mason and want to make slick flying great again ;) "Once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward.

Mrmaverick Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 I first read " chicken hawk " way back in the mid 80's. Great book. Seeing " blue thunder " when that first came out and that book gave me a soft spot for helicopters and the huey in particular. Liked the part where the pilot is hit on his helmet and the bullet ricashades inside around his scull and comes out the other side and to his co pilots disbelief looks as if he has been shot through the head and is still alive and flying. Not until he later takes off his helmet they find out what happened. lucky man.

scrapple Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 The AI gunners issue should be fixed in 2.1.1 in today's update. https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3233515&postcount=32 It was fixed in 1.5.7 in the 8/23/2017 update: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3227902&postcount=53 More importantly (to me) the rope tearing issue with slingloading was fixed in 1.5.7, but the 2.1.1 changelog doesn't specifically mention it.
Tomcatter87 Posted September 1, 2017 Author Posted September 1, 2017 Cool thing, I've gotta try it as soon as I get home :) Finally I can fly some Huey-Slick missions again.

Frontgunners and sidegunners. Sometimes they open fire for a while, but they inevitably get busted. Edited September 14, 2024 by MoleUK
