Growling Sidewinder Posted July 3, 2018 Posted July 3, 2018 The automatic Acquisition mode doesn't seem to be working. I put the circle over the target but I get no lock. its ok if it doesn't work due to EA i'm just wondering if i'm doing something wrong.

Lord of War Posted July 3, 2018 Posted July 3, 2018 the radar is VERY WIP so most radar modes are really unreliable
Lord of War Posted July 3, 2018 Posted July 3, 2018 and this is a pulse doppler so moving at the same speed as the target isn't beneficial for radar acquisition
Alpha Posted July 3, 2018 Posted July 3, 2018 and this is a pulse doppler so moving at the same speed as the target isn't beneficial for radar acquisition Actually the pulse-doppler radar doesn´t care. It locks up contacts with the same speed just fine.
Growling Sidewinder Posted July 3, 2018 Author Posted July 3, 2018 the radar is VERY WIP so most radar modes are really unreliable so aacq doesnt work? all the other modes like vertical and wide range and bore seem to work fine. aacq is the only one i'm having trouble with.

glen.a.williamson Posted July 3, 2018 Posted July 3, 2018 Out of the four modes you mention, I believe that AACQ is the only one yet to be implemented. Perhaps that will change with the upcoming patch.
Tenkom Posted July 3, 2018 Posted July 3, 2018 I’ve gotten locks with aacq. Remember that it takes several seconds for the radar to complete it’s sweep. And I’ve found that it is important to not maneouver while it is acquiring.

Yep, WACQ seems to work as well as boresight...hey, why isn't there a three/four letter notification code on the HUD showing that you are in Boresight? something like BST....you got AACQ, WACQ, VACQ, GACQ (guns), and BST for boresight
Banzaiib Posted July 3, 2018 Posted July 3, 2018 What do you think the chances of us getting a patch tomorrow are?
Alphamale Posted July 3, 2018 Posted July 3, 2018 What do you think the chances of us getting a patch tomorrow are? Why? It can't be because 4th of July...they don't celebrate that over there, do they?
maxTRX Posted July 3, 2018 Posted July 3, 2018 Why? It can't be because 4th of July...they don't celebrate that over there, do they? No, but they know a large number of their customers do. Jeez, I got hooked on these updates now! Everyday when I fire up my rig in the morning, first thing I do is check for DCS updates:lol:

TAW_Blaze Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 Boresight works somewhat, but as soon as you pull the target outside the circle it throws away the lock which makes no sense at all. Hopefully that'll be fixed soon :)
GrEaSeLiTeNiN Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 (edited) AACQ auto locks up nearest target in your DDI or the target that your TDC is over. But it is not working yet as far as I've tried/read. BORE and WACQ works ok. VERTICAL SCAN is kind of working although not in the way that it should because you need to have the target more or less in your HUD to lock it up which defeats its purpose. I read it will be fixed. UPDATE: After latest patch (Open Beta for me) - ACM Vertcal Scan now works. AACQ still does not work.

GrEaSeLiTeNiN Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 (edited) Do you think that Caging/Uncaging the HUD would make a difference with that? Hi, as I understand it... VERT SCAN: Uncaging the Aim-9 might help (not sure if that works) but BORE, VERT SCAN, WACQ is supposed to uncage the Aim-9 after locking up the target, automatically. WACQ: Currently WACQ uses caged mode. Uncaged (slewable) mode will be implemented later. (Doesn't apply to AACQ.) :) Edited July 4, 2018 by GrEaSeLiTeNiN AMD Ryzen 5 5600X | Gigabyte RTX 3070 Gaming OC 8GB | 64GB G.SKILL TRIDENT Z4 neo DDR4 3600Mhz | Asus B550 TUF Plus Gaming | 2TB Aorus Gen4 TM Warthog HOTAS | TrackIR 5 | Windows 10 Home x64 | My HOTAS Profiles

(Doesn't apply to AACQ.) :) Ah ok, I remember seeing a video before of the AV8B in uncaging/caging the hud in boresight. From what I could see, it allowed you to move the nose away from target when uncaged, and keep lock. Maybe I have the wrong idea about the purpose caging and uncaging.
Svend_Dellepude Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 Is that what that circle is for??? Wow, you learn something every day. So if I ever see a circle on the HUD it means boresight, right? You ask, I answer. What do you want? Maybe you should write an email to Raytheon. They should know.
