[OLD BUG REPORTS] Cleaning and Organization of old posts

[myHelljumper]

The radar elevation display is not corresponding to the antenna real elevation most of the time, ou have to reset it with the target unlock button.

[norsetto]

Also for the air-to-ground modes, it seems that the radar modes are not reset correctly after CNM neutral. For instance going to CAS and using CNM forward after using guns in air-to-air and a boresight radar mode will result in the HUD (and I guess radar) not in a2g but still a2a.

Thanks Smokin Hole!

 

 

There is no bug: I had the volume turned down so I could'nt hear the engine and must have been too impatient to wait for the engine to spool up :-)

 

But it would be great if the ignition switch would be animated to get a visual feedback when the button is pressed...thanks!

With last two patches there is pilot visor bug - visor animation slides down and visor overlay disappears.

[ataribaby]

Mirage Pilot Body initial state doesn't correspond with game pilot body option. When enabled, Mirage is always without pilot body and you need to enable it by key.

[RedSky]

This problem definitely exists in 2.5.5 as well, with the added complication of it seeming to be unable to lock scanned targets until within 20nm as often as not.

[=DECOY=]

do you mean, you have to use the key binding to add the pilot in game ?

 

Sorry not sure what you mean

Yes, with the mirage, even with the « show pilot when available » checkbox enabled in the options, it doesn’t appears at the mission start and must be displayed by the key binding. Other planes start with the pilot shown at the start.

I have noticed the same bug. Quite annoying because I like to use the sun visor for immersion.

This is probably why when I sometimes lose lock on someone with in 20nm it all of a sudden can't be reacquired... I think my scan is centered but it really isn't? Will have to try that unlock magic button

It's 'target unlock' to break radar lock on target, not 'magic unlock' (which also exist to break Magic Lock)

ever since the update to the Mirage,,, has it been a year? 6 months? anyways, it has never been as easy as it was... I have beaten my brains out trying to fly and work it like before the last big shakeup with new cockpit and such. I think something is screwy, but I can't be sure if it my body or the plane. I know for sure it worked a lot easier a while back...

[The_GhostRider]

I've been flying this a bit since 2.5.6 and I noticed that my log book total hours were way higher than expected since I reinstalled a few months back. I've flown the Mirage probably about 40-50 minutes since I reinstalled and the log book indicates 48+ hours. I looked at other DCS modules and their values are were I would expect. Look I'm all for rounding up, but this seems a bit excessive.

Your 3rd ballpoint references a current non-functional feature per the manual. All that is required to display a synthetic runway is that the runway lat/long be properly set up in the editor as the destination waypoint. PCA App Mode and the proper ILS frequency complete the process. Since we cannot currently place a synthetic runway ourselves with the PCN, it probably makes no difference whether or not there is a CP/PD entry.

 

 

Also apparently the glideslope an heading are inversely placed in the INS even when properly setup. In the ILS tut, when I'm checking airfield waypt in the tutorial, it shows 3 and 310. Presumably 3 is the glideslope (as per aerodrome chart also) and 310 is the heading (?), but when modifying, it treats the left value as heading and right value as glideslope (left value allows for 3.1 digits, right value 2.1).

[Ramsay]

Like the synthetic runway, the localiser should be tied to the landing waypoint and use the runway's course. It should not float about the HUD like a wayward Azimuth Steering Line.

 

 

Similar Airbus system.

Hi .

I was taxiing in dubai internationnal airport when the plane jumped and crashed on the ground.

You can see the scene in the track attached.

Hello,

 

 

when i choose the peru skin, the cockpit suit have the sand color.

In the external view the suit is green. I think this is easy to fix.

There is another bug. Use B-scope instead of PPI.

 

When you are in PPI, you have to place radar cursor on B-scope target's position to be able to lock.

So directly in front it's the same, but when you try to lock off axis, there is a huge difference.

 

It shouldn't be like that, it's a bug.

ENC button still present in manual 1.1.0 and M02 training missions

 

The current manual version 1.1.0 still has some references to the "ENC" button at the INS panel (which in the current OpenBeta 2.5.6 isn`t visible any more), e.g. at:

1. pages 160, 161 and 162 (pictures/screenshots)

2. "...If the ENC button on the INS Panel is lit..." at page 96

3. "...The ENC button will blink ..." at page 160

 

 

Also there are still references in the training missions "...M02. Introduction to the INS" for both Caucasus and NTTR versions.

 

 

Thank you!

[baltic_dragon]

Hey - thanks, I will update the manual. I removed the reference in M2 - updated training should be available with the next update.

[HiCKS-BB15]

Hello,

 

 

You have lots of "MODS" on your installation, so it's impossible to see your track on a vanilla installation.

So, it should be a reason : try without them, it should solve the problem.

EA december 2015

Release april 2017

February 2020, automatic release still not work in PI bombing mode after multiple reports (but work in CCRP since the beginning...)

 

Sorry but it's shameful !...

[GVO]

Yes, just tried the NVG and it felt like looking into the sun :)

 

But I love the new mechanics, how you put them on. Well done Razbam!

[El Chapo]

FAF NVGs don't have gain control. It's an On/Off position and that's all...

The only thing you can do is reducing cockpit lights, but when it comes to the outside of the plane you have to deal with it.

[DmitriKozlowsky]

Latest build has limited seat raise/lower much more then previous. Problem is that in APP mode, seat cannot be lowered or raised to the degree where the heading scale is on top of HUD. New limit on seat raise/lower gets heading scale stuck in middle on HUD.
