escaner Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Yesterday I was back in the F-14 after some time in a multiplayer training environment with some friends and I noticed the following problems: At some point I went to the tanker for refuel and Jester just kept talking as if I was constantly failing to connect, whithout any pause whatsoever between messages; even when I was actually connected and taking fuel! Later I rearmed at an airfield. I was down to about 300 rounds of gun, so filled it up. When I tried to use the gun again, it was still displaying a "3", instead of "5" on the HUD. But I could still use it for a while when it reached "0", so I guess I had it rearmed, just the quantity was not updated in the HUD. Also noticed that after rearming, the external fuel tanks were not filled up (I landed with them empty). I could fix that rearming twice: first removing the tanks and then adding them again. Thanks for your help! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draconus Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 1. Apart from the indication on the HUD the rounds remaining indicator on the pilot right vertical panel also shows remaining rounds. The indicator counts down from 650 but can manually be reset by rotating the knob below the indicator to the desired quantity. 2. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=244244 Win10 i7-10700KF 32GB RTX3060 Rift S T16000M TWCS TFRP FC3 F-14A/B F-15E CA SC NTTR PG Syria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
escaner Posted November 13, 2019 Author Share Posted November 13, 2019 Thanks for your reply, Draconus. You mean that after reloading the gun I need to manually set the new contents in that indicator and that will also fix the HUD quantity?

draconus Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 (edited) Yes. https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3847453&postcount=10 If you cold-start or rearm the pilot has to set the counter manually.

BonerCat Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 As for empty bags rearming stuff, it's a DCS bug afaik, and affects all aircraft. I'd reccomend dropling your bags on approach, but if you don't wanna break the immersion, double rearm is the only way (that i know of).

BonerCat Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Oh, and rambling jester on refueling is a known issue. For the time being, you can tell jester to shut it thru jester menu under crew (one of the last submenus. Don't remember the name)->jester silent (or something like that) Modules: F-14, F-15C, F-16C, F/A-18C, M-2000C, A-10C, A-10C II, AV-8B N/A, MiG-29, Su-33, MiG-21 Bis, F-5E, P-51D, Ka-50, Mi-8, Sa 342, UH-1H, Combined Arms Maps and others: Persian Gulf, Syria, Normandy, WWII Assets, NS 430 + Mi-8 NS 430 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found the option to make Jester silent under Crew Contract. Actually I tried to look for all these issues before posting, but I didn't find anything. Sorry for that.

draconus Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Actually I tried to look for all these issues before posting, but I didn't find anything. Sorry for that. No problem, we're here to help. I checked again and the HUD shows the rounded number of hundreds of gun rounds that is set currently in the counter. So you can change that however you want but it is advised to reflect the real available rounds number for obvious reasons.
