Lee1 Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 I've been having trouble setting ripples up and I thought I had it fixed. I set it up on the normal "PROF" page and nothing happens, the message remains single bomb in the centre of the display. On checking, it is correctlt filled in as riple single, six bombs, 125 feet spacing. I persist in trying and eventually a blank prof comes up and I fill it all in again and, bingo, works as advertised, centre of DSMS display says rip single, 6 bombs, 125 feet spacing. It's obviously me, I may be missing something important but I'm sure the Manual and the video say go into the page, set it up and drop bombs. HAve I missed something or do I need to uninstall my Hog and re install it because something has gone wrong. Very frustrating, thought I had it licked but it seems not. Any help would be appreciated. Meanwhile, AAR is a complete mystery and I've tried to hook up for hours and always lose ot at the last second!! Thanks in advance.:(:(

Lee1 Posted September 1, 2020 Author Posted September 1, 2020 Thanks, I'll give it a go later when I get back into the Sim.
Lee1 Posted September 1, 2020 Author Posted September 1, 2020 I think I've got the hang of it now. It doesn't work if I input it straight into the "prof" but if I select the weapons first (highlighted in white) and then fill in the "prof" with the ripple info, it works. Obviously that's what I'm supposed to do and I missed that in the manual.
Emmy Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 Be sure you select weapons profiles using DMS L/R and not via the DSMS. Directly uisng the DSMS only selects raw weapons with no delivery information.

Lee1 Posted September 1, 2020 Author Posted September 1, 2020 Thanks, Emmy. That's where I was going wrong. Was selecting weapons to deliver on the DSMS page not using the hotas keys. Tried it, works like a charm.
Emmy Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 Excellent! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] http://www.476vfightergroup.com/content.php High Quality Aviation Photography For Personal Enjoyment And Editorial Use. www.crosswindimages.com
QuiGon Posted September 2, 2020 Posted September 2, 2020 (edited) Thanks, Emmy. That's where I was going wrong. Was selecting weapons to deliver on the DSMS page not using the hotas keys. Tried it, works like a charm. You can also do the same on the PROF subpage of the DSMS page. There you can activate the profiles, just like you do with DMS right/left. There is of course no need to do it that way, as it is much more comfy to use the HOTAS to do so.

Lee1 Posted September 2, 2020 Author Posted September 2, 2020 Excellent! Just have to be able to AAR now then I can apply!

Lee1 Posted September 2, 2020 Author Posted September 2, 2020 (edited) Excellent! Hi Guys. I'm new to DCS and I've downloaded your Range objects to put in. I'm runni9ng a stable version and can't find exactly where to put the files. Can you help me at all. I've registered on your site but still awaiting the e-mail to activate so I can't ask there as yet. Thanks Edited September 2, 2020 by Lee1

Just open up the rar/zip and as soon as you get to the folder in there called “Mods” drag that into the DCS directory in your Saved Games [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

In the mission editor, under static objects>Structures the 476th also has an NTTR range template with all the correct targets and NAVAIDS avaiable for download of their website that you can find here: http://www.476vfightergroup.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=403 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
