Biga42 Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 Has anyone got successful buddy lasing? Me and friends tried yesterday with no joy. Tried with GBU-12 and AGM 65E, although we can lock the target, the bomb always miss it.

QuiGon Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 Did it a couple of times over the past 2 years and it always worked flawless. It helps to fire the laser only after the bomb has been released.

5ephir0th Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 I tried: - LTD/R on On position (L ARM appears on FLIR as usual) - Select TRIG option on FLIR - Buddy search for laser and find it - Buddy launch GBU - 10-15 seconds before impact i start lasing (LTD/R on FLIR) holding the trigger - Bomb fails NZXT H9 Flow Black | Intel Core i5 13600KF OCed P5.6 E4.4 | Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Elite AX | G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo DDR5-6000 32GB C30 OCed 6600 C32 | nVidia GeForce RTX 4090 Founders Edition | Western Digital SN770 2TB | Gigabyte GP-UD1000GM PG5 ATX 3.0 1000W | SteelSeries Apex 7 | Razer Viper Mini | SteelSeries Artics Nova 7 | LG OLED42C2 | Xiaomi P1 55" Virpil T-50 CM2 Base + Thrustmaster Warthog Stick | WinWing Orion 2 F16EX Viper Throttle | WinWing ICP | 3 x Thrustmaster MFD | Saitek Combat Rudder Pedals | Oculus Quest 2 DCS World | Persian Gulf | Syria | Flaming Cliff 3 | P-51D Mustang | Spitfire LF Mk.

Biga42 Posted June 8, 2020 Author Posted June 8, 2020 to be clear what we did: - Who is lasing is the one which ltd/r is on, trigger boxed and holding trigger over target. - Who is searching the laser is the one which, LST is on, LTDR off, LST boxed and looking for the laser, once locked, launch the weapon. everyone with the same laser code.
QuiGon Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 to be clear what we did: Alright several issues here (there seems to be some misconception about how buddy lasing works in general): - Who is lasing is the one which ltd/r is on, trigger boxed and holding trigger over target. When you hold the trigger over target, does it actually say "LTD/R" in top center of the FLIR screen? Because if it doesn't say so, you're not actually lasing. - Who is searching the laser is the one which, LST is on, LTDR off, LST boxed and looking for the laser, once locked, launch the weapon. There is absolutly no need for LST for buddy lasing. That's a missconception many have when it comes to buddy lasing. Many people think you need LST to do that, but that's not the case. Have you just tried to drop the bomb on the target without LST? everyone with the same laser code. The lasing guy needs to have his LTD/R code on the FLIR set to the correct number, while the bomb throwing guy needs to have his bomb code on the STORES page set to the correct number. 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!

Because if it doesn't say so, you're not actually lasing. Yes it shows LTD/R There is absolutly no need for LST for buddy lasing. That's a missconception many have when it comes to buddy lasing. Many people think you need LST to do that, but that's not the case. Have you just tried to drop the bomb on the target without LST? what I mean is the LST in DDI, it is boxed or "uncaged" The lasing guy needs to have his LTD/R code on the FLIR set to the correct number, while the bomb throwing guy needs to have his bomb code on the STORES page set to the correct number. Yes it does
QuiGon Posted June 10, 2020 Posted June 10, 2020 Yes it does As I said: LST is not needed to employ laser guided bombs with buddy lasing. Just try dropping the bombs without LST. If that still doesn't work, you should upload a track file so we can take a look at what you guys are doing wrong.

Weasel Posted June 10, 2020 Posted June 10, 2020 (edited) May have a look at this video from Grim Reapers, they shoot Mavs with Buddy lasing. This will hopefully answers your questions: Cheers Weasel Buddy lasing starts at minute 15:30 Edited June 10, 2020 by Weasel Start lasing Time added

This will hopefully answers your questions: Cheers Weasel Buddy lasing starts at minute 15:30 this video is old so it does not represent the actual version. @Quigon we will and post a track file.
