jeffham222 Posted June 8, 2019 Posted June 8, 2019 Seems we still have to put in meters for elevation instead of feet... Tried with J84, the J109 and J82. The fourth time flying the mission I set it to meters and it hit the target with J82s. Haven't tried the rest... I trust this will eventually be addressed. EDIT--All targets were in PP mode.

jeffham222 Posted June 9, 2019 Author Posted June 9, 2019 Yeah, I have video of all three hitting 100's of feet short. It's a mystery to me why my bombs are all off. I have the latest OpenBeta update--2.5.5.31917. I was dropping from 20k' at about 350-360KIAS. To get the most accurate Lat/Long, I zoomed in to 10' on the map in ME and put the cursor in the center of the target. Verified Lat/Long on JDAM Mission page before taxiing. Also, I'm using the "Precise Lat/Long" under "Misc." for "Coordinate Display" in settings. Would mods cause this? I am running the Echo (I think it's called) engine sound mod, and have some custom skins I'm running... I wouldn't think this would affect it at all...

Kang Posted June 10, 2019 Posted June 10, 2019 This may sound stupid, but: double-checked that your coordinate source (F10 map?) is actually in feet? Someone might have mixed them up in a briefing text as well.
Harlikwin Posted June 10, 2019 Posted June 10, 2019 Worked for me online this morning. Using feet for elev. New hotness: I7 9700k 4.8ghz, 32gb ddr4, 2080ti, :joystick: TM Warthog.

jeffham222 Posted June 11, 2019 Author Posted June 11, 2019 (edited) This may sound stupid, but: double-checked that your coordinate source (F10 map?) is actually in feet? Someone might have mixed them up in a briefing text as well. Yes, Sir, I did confirm that. This was my own mission brief that was "triple checked" for accuracy. I used the coordinates off of the Mission Editor map. Harlikwin--Excellent for you! Still jacked up for me. Also, when I put the GPS coordinates in the JDAM mission profile, I also noticed as I was inbound to the target, the diamonds in the HUD were on the ground when I used feet, and in the air when I used meters--which is how it SHOULD show. They just land short when I use feet... I have run several "repairs" as well. I'll try again with a mixed load out of weapons and feet and meters and see what ones hit and fall short. I am confident I will see the same thing.

jeffham222 Posted June 11, 2019 Author Posted June 11, 2019 So I just attempted this again. Load out is 2 J82s, a J84 and a J109. J82s were set up for feet for elevation, while the J84 and J109 were set up for meters. One J82 hit it's target, the other missed and the J84 and J109 also hit their targets. It's like the game is AI or something and learns to get better. Nothing changed. GPS Coords were confirmed. Video to confirm all hits. Hit me up if ya wanna see it.

Svend_Dellepude Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 Try to click the object and get the elevation from the infobox, and see if that makes a difference. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Win10 64, Asus Maximus VIII Formula, i5 6600K, Geforce 980 GTX Ti, 32 GB Ram, Samsung EVO SSD.
jeffham222 Posted June 11, 2019 Author Posted June 11, 2019 Try to click the object and get the elevation from the infobox, and see if that makes a difference. Do you mean in ME? The info bit that pops up on the right of the screen when you click an object? If so, I'll check this.

jeffham222 Posted June 11, 2019 Author Posted June 11, 2019 So here's a link to the video... Any ideas? Intel Core i7-6700@3.4GHz EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 8GB 16GB RAM TM TFRP Rudder Pedals TM TWCS Throttle Virpil VPCWarBRD Base TM F/A-18C Hornet Grip
Svend_Dellepude Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 Do you mean in ME? The info bit that pops up on the right of the screen when you click an object? If so, I'll check this. No, I meant the F10 map. There seems to be a discrepancy between elevation of your mouse cursor, while hovering over the intended target, and the elevation in the infobox.

Tholozor Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 Correct, there's a known bug on the F10 map that does not display the correct altitude at cursor position. For example, on PG, the elevation across the water never reaches 0 and jumps around, and altitudes are -far- below what they should be at higher elevations. IIRC the mission editor altitudes display correctly. From the video it looks like the JDAM is attempting to reach a position that is underneath the intended target.
