RagnarDa Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 I mean that in the currently released version there is a bug with ballistics calculations for low-drag bombs. Fixed in next patch.

Katj Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Awesome! I hope this means toss-bombing will work properly as well. Can't wait to try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonathanRL Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Wait, you mean to tell me I flew six Red Flag Campaign missions and the low drag bombs did not work properly? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veenee Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Is it just dive bombing and LD bombs? I currently have to set QFE to, let's say, 1013 instead of correct 1011 for HD bombs to hit the target. Otherwise they fall short. So many modules, so little time... www.mikphotography.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snappy Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Hm, its not in the patch 11\12 update changelog, did ED forget to mention it or was not in the patch? Regards, Snappy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RagnarDa Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 It was in the previous patch I wasn’t aware there would be a patch, hence hadn’t send any change log to ED.

DarkStar79 Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Is the BK90 wind correction fixed on the CK37 computer? The number was opposite when starting missions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RagnarDa Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Yes wind correction for submunitions is implemented now as well as fixed bug related to navigational drift and Bk90s.

DarkStar79 Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Yes wind correction for submunitions is implemented now as well as fixed bug related to navigational drift and Bk90s. ok Thx! One more question thou. How should I be able to know the wind if Im in a multiplayer session? I know that I can see wind when taking auto attack targets on the kneeboard. But If i want to take another manual target, how can i Know the wind correction wich i should put in the CK37 computer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RagnarDa Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Most of the time you don’t have to input wind in CK37 because if you don’t it will automatically calculate wind using the doppler DCS AJS37 HACKERMAN There will always be bugs.

QuiGon Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 ok Thx! One more question thou. How should I be able to know the wind if Im in a multiplayer session? Wind information is always included in the weather section of the briefing screen (ALT+B). Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

DarkStar79 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I’m going away on a business trip. Is it possible you could show me pictures of this? Not sure what picture you want? You can just log into any multiplayer server and check the wind that is generated on the kneeboard auto attack target. And then compare it to the CK37 computer. Its never the same. Sometimes its not even close. Also i find it strange that the wind can be different when choosing auto attack targets on the kneeboard. It can differ alot. Shouldnt it be the same wind all across the map? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStar79 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Just logged in on Operation Blue Flag multiplayer server and in the mission briefing the wind says 300 degrees and 2 m/s The CK37 computer says 130 degrees and 6 km/h if I look at the auto attack Keeboard targets it says 300 degrees and 2 m/s so it seems correct. But the CK37 computer is way off... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mauzer Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Also i find it strange that the wind can be different when choosing auto attack targets on the kneeboard. It can differ alot. Shouldnt it be the same wind all across the map? The game reports wind different to how it is displayed in the Viggen. In the mission editor and mission briefing (and, I assume, the kneeboard) wind speed is in m/s and wind direction is where the wind is blowing to. In Viggen, wind speed is measured in km/h and wind direction is where the wind is blowing from. So indicated wind in Viggen should be roughly 180 degrees off compared to what you see in your kneeboard. Does that make sense? I just did a quick test and it seems to me that wind is displayed correctly in both multiplayer and singleplayer. Also tried dropping some BK90's, and they seem to be dealing a lot better with the wind now. The submunitions still drift a bit off target though, but I guess that may be pretty realistic.

Katj Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 The viggen displays the direction the wind is blowing FROM, and DCS briefing page reports the direction the wind is blowing TO. So the direction will be offset 180 degrees. So far so good. The viggen displays the wind in km/h, and DCS uses m/s (perhaps there's a setting for this but that's beside the point I'm making). So far we're still good. HOWEVER! For the BK90 to strike its intended target you must enter the wind in m/s into the CK37. I would guess doing so will F up your navigation unless that too is broken in the same way. I just tested this a gazillion times, but you guys are most welcome to try it yourselves. So if DCS reports wind 90 Deg 5 m/s, you should go to vind and input, then push 27005 and enter. Your bomblets will drop on your waypoint. If you don't do the above the aircraft will do its doppler thing and automatically select something in the vicinity of 270180, which is in accordance with the manual, but your bomblets will drop way upwind.
