Dimus Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 I though of creating a new thread about this as my problem is not fully relevant with that in the other thread. It seems that I can not get the EP13 to work at all. The procedure I follow is this one: 1. In the mission builder I have set up my waypoints towards the target and also set up a target waypoint, which in my case is M4. 2. After I pass B3 I select RB75 in the weapon selector and then I switch mode from NAV to ANF. I understand that the scope should light up at this point but it does not. It remains solid green. Hitting either T0 or T1 fix does nothing. Also switching modes between A1 and A2 makes no difference, neither does trying to increase contrast and brightness. The scope is totally inop. Am I missing any important step? I have not read anything different in the documentation.
BRRRRT-REYNOLDS Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 Have you flipped up the safety switch? I can't remember if that's part of the order.
Dimus Posted March 16, 2020 Author Posted March 16, 2020 Yes I do, does not help. In every video I found on YT, it turns on immediately once you switch to ANF provided you have selected RB75 in weapons selection. Safety switch needs to be flipped to fire.

Might be the case that you try to mix Rb-75 with other "incompatible" missiles? See manual for the restrictions!

See manual for the restrictions! Thank you! You may have hit the nail on the head with this. I have not checked that. So far I try to combine them with bombs and rocket pods. I am not at my sim computer so I will need to check this later and revert.
TLTeo Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 Thank you! You may have hit the nail on the head with this. I have not checked that. So far I try to combine them with bombs and rocket pods. I am not at my sim computer so I will need to check this later and revert. This is definitely the issue; other than RB24s/74s (and CM/ECM pods), the only mixed weapon loadout allowed in the Viggen is RB-05 plus gunpods. Anything else won't work.
Dimus Posted March 16, 2020 Author Posted March 16, 2020 (edited) I guess it's another case of RTFM on my part then... Thank you all for your help! This is an amazing aircraft and fantastic simulation that I enjoy a lot but still learning bit by bit. Edit: Confirmed this was the issue. Now to correct the fact that hits are not registered, but I saw this bug is known and under progress by HB. Edited March 16, 2020 by Dimus
