Unable to access Mirage Features

[Captainben96]

Hi all !

 

I recently decided to purchase the Mirage and have been at it for like 2 weeks, doing the trainings and stuff, yet I am confronted to several problems with the radar mostly:

 

- Radar BVR:

- Super clear spikes randomly disappear or unlock, even for big, non-evasive targets, is that

normal ?

- How do I unlock a target voluntarily to choose another one? (there is a 'lock' command

but can't find the 'unlock' one like on FC3 modules)

 

- Radar CCM: I have zero clue on how to switch to CCM modes and to navigate through them (I find no binding reffering to them)

 

- Radar Bombing: While going through the training, and especially the bombing CCPI one, I did exactly what was asked but when selecting TAS and RS on the PCA, the radar didn't go into TAS mode, and I had zero HUD change (no targeting pipper whatsoever which is kind of annoying when wanting to bomb stuff).

 

I'm kind of discouraged as I was finally able to fly the Mirage (which I was super proud of, being French) and paid for it, but can't do much with it sadly...

 

Thanks a lot for the help!

Lot's of questions, I will try to help :).

I get that you are talking about radar contacts, spikes are for the RWR. We would need a track to know what is happening to you, there is a lot of things that can make a contact disappear (antenna elevation, aspect, closing speed, type...).

The unlock button is called weapon system CMD depress.

 

- Radar CCM: I have zero clue on how to switch to CCM modes and to navigate through them (I find no binding reffering to them)

 

The close-combat radar modes are triggered by the weapon system CMD fwd and weapon system CMD aft, each one cycle between 2 modes and the fwd modes are dependent on the selected weapon.

 

- Radar Bombing: While going through the training, and especially the bombing CCPI one, I did exactly what was asked but when selecting TAS and RS on the PCA, the radar didn't go into TAS mode, and I had zero HUD change (no targeting pipper whatsoever which is kind of annoying when wanting to bomb stuff).

 

The training missions are not up to date with the aircraft, that is why you are not getting the same result.

In order to have the A-G symbology, you need to select your A-G weapon on the PCA and then hit the weapon system CMD fwd and then you can use weapon system CMD aft to get the nav symbology back.

 

The aircraft is getting big updates at the moment that are changing a lot of system logic, so those problems are bound to happen to you again. The manual is more updated than the training mission at the moment.

And in the release branch there are some bugs that are now fixed in the open beta branch.

 

Hope it helps, you can ask again here if the manual does not help :).

Have the same issues in the trial, will try that immediately.

I'm running stable version but that doesn't seem to make a difference for M2000 (last updates 2018 ).

Not at all, there is a lot of updates in open beta that are not in release.
