Ebphoto Posted November 16, 2020 Posted November 16, 2020 Hello, Ive been out of the combat sim world for a few years and trying to get back into it again. I have been having good success with the F18, F14, A10 but for some reason I cannot get the bombs to drop in the F16! I have the master arm to ON, CCIP, prof 1 but no matter what I do I cannot get them to drop. Even in the tutorial mission I can’t get them to drop. Even if I hit the space key, nothing happens! I’ve tried copying my joystick file from the other jets that work to the f16 and then change a few things and nothing I do works! I know I must be missing something, can someone please help? I would really appreciate it. Sorry if this is a really basic newb thing. I’ve checked around and didn’t see anything so I’m at a loss. I have a very basic setup, just my MSI laptop with a mouse and a Logitech Extreme 3D Pro. That’s pretty much it. Everything works great in the other jets doing the same type of CCIP bombing. thank you, E

Ebphoto Posted November 17, 2020 Author Posted November 17, 2020 Thanks, that was it. I looked everywhere for that but couldnt find it. Spelled it out in the search didnt think of WPN. Oh well thanks appreciate the help..
Sprool Posted November 18, 2020 Posted November 18, 2020 I think a lack of consistency naming the different mappable controls between modules can be really frustrating till you've had few weeks airtime with it, some of the naming is really not intuitive.
Ebphoto Posted November 18, 2020 Author Posted November 18, 2020 Absolutely! I copied the F18 profile over to the F16 knowing I’d have to change a few things but this drove me crazy! BTW do you happen to know what the lock target key is or what it’s called on the F16. I keep thinking it’s Enter but doesn’t seem to be it. Not sure what it’s called so don’t know what to look for. Keep thinking of my Falcon 3.0 days. That was a lamb compared to this! Thx
ZeroReady Posted November 18, 2020 Posted November 18, 2020 TMS up with cursor over radar contact to change to bugged target, then TMS up again to change to Single Target Track.
Ebphoto Posted November 18, 2020 Author Posted November 18, 2020 Thank you! I’ll have to play around with it to get this down! Lots of stuff to learn! Thank you for the help.
