Ratcatcher Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 As in the title, does anyone know if TACAN for the KC130 is now working in 2.5? I had read it was fixed in the previous version.(OB 1.5.8.13504) I have set up a tanker mission but cannot get any TACAN indication when I dial in the Tankers frequency? Thanks.

Ratcatcher Posted February 4, 2018 Author Posted February 4, 2018 You must edit yourself the KC-130.lua to enable it. Ah, well actually got it working. Just saw another thread in missions talking about it. Went back into the ME and changed the priority in the advanced waypoints option. Went back in game and its working. They have added this functionality without having to edit the .lau. Thanks anyways! 1 Techlabs Chameleon Watercooled Gaming PC - Intel Core i7 6700K @ 4.7GHz : Samsung 950 Pro 256GB SSD, Samsung 500 gig SSD, Seagate 1TB 7200RPM Drive : MSI GeForce GTX 1080 "Founders Edition" 8192MB : 800W '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply : 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 PC4-25600C16 3200MHz : Occulus Rift S : TM Warthog : MFG Crosswind V2 : Win 10 64.

Ratcatcher Posted February 4, 2018 Author Posted February 4, 2018 Nice to read that, thanks for the headsup. I think I spoke to soon! Having got the TACAN to come up on the MFD (I had set it on Ch1) I then flew toward it only to be taken to the coast (not the tanker)! My apologies, looks like its not been fixed after all, still trying to figure out why it did read correctly to begin with!!! :wallbash: Techlabs Chameleon Watercooled Gaming PC - Intel Core i7 6700K @ 4.7GHz : Samsung 950 Pro 256GB SSD, Samsung 500 gig SSD, Seagate 1TB 7200RPM Drive : MSI GeForce GTX 1080 "Founders Edition" 8192MB : 800W '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply : 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 PC4-25600C16 3200MHz : Occulus Rift S : TM Warthog : MFG Crosswind V2 : Win 10 64.

Sedlo Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 Can't speak for any other map right now, but it works just fine on Nevada 2.5 (just finished a mission with it). My Youtube Channel MY DCS MISSIONS
Ratcatcher Posted February 4, 2018 Author Posted February 4, 2018 Can't speak for any other map right now, but it works just fine on Nevada 2.5 (just finished a mission with it). Thanks, its a bit weird (or operator error on my side), but I just reset my mission, (which is on the Caucasus map). Selected the tanker (CH1) and flew straight to it, working perfectly...now! :) Techlabs Chameleon Watercooled Gaming PC - Intel Core i7 6700K @ 4.7GHz : Samsung 950 Pro 256GB SSD, Samsung 500 gig SSD, Seagate 1TB 7200RPM Drive : MSI GeForce GTX 1080 "Founders Edition" 8192MB : 800W '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply : 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 PC4-25600C16 3200MHz : Occulus Rift S : TM Warthog : MFG Crosswind V2 : Win 10 64.

Esac_mirmidon Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 Maybe you need to save the mission again if you are using a pre 2.5 version " You must think in russian.."

Nealius Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 I haven't gotten it to work in Caucasus. TACAN is enabled by default in the .lua file. In the mission I set the TACAN to 29Y. In game I set the Harrier's TACAN to 29Y, turn ON, select A/A on the ODU. No signal.

In game I set the Harrier's TACAN to 29Y, turn ON, select A/A on the ODU. No signal. I've flown my mission a couple of times now and I have found the selection of the Air to Air on the ODU a bit hit or miss. Sometimes I have selected it and still not have the TACAN station show up. I just keep switching the TACAN controls off and then on again and it would eventually show up. Just a thought, but where do you have the TACAN channel for the Tankers waypoints? I had it originally as position 3 then moved it up to 1 and that seemed to get it to work. (I still don't know why its entry is greyed out when compared to the other waypoints, but it works!)
