TAW_Impalor Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Instant action - Syria - Bekaa Valley Strike. Always see the diamond in the wrong place via HUD after finding a target with TPOD. So gun runs are problematic. In other missions too has noticed this problem, but I think only on Syria map. Not sure if it's a Syria map bug or a Hornet bug, so feel free to move into another forum. Track exceeds 5Mb, can't attach... Update: cannot reproduce on PG and Caucasus, so it's definitely a SYRIA map bug! 12900KF@5.4, 32GB DDR4@4000cl14g1, 4090, M.2, W10 Pro, Warthog HOTAS, ButtKicker, Reverb G2/OpenXR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorianR666 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Ensure the INS knob is in IFA position. Ensure you have actually designated the target with the TGP (TDC depress). It doesnt appear the FLIR page displays the diamond, which it would if you designated (and HUD would display the diamond with dot).

TAW_Impalor Posted November 23, 2020 Author Share Posted November 23, 2020 dorianR666 do you not reproduce this bug, or just assume it's not there? While true that F18 air starts unaligned (what?), this is not what is causing it. I attached more screenshots and encourage everyone to try for themselves! 12900KF@5.4, 32GB DDR4@4000cl14g1, 4090, M.2, W10 Pro, Warthog HOTAS, ButtKicker, Reverb G2/OpenXR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorianR666 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 While true that F18 air starts unaligned (what?) it starts aligned, IFA position chosen from aligned NAV position does NOT mean in-flight alignment but GPS-aided function. if you had it in NAV, it would accumulate drift, which would result precisely at what you experience. which is why i mentioned it. there is someone reporting a bug while having disabled GPS almost every day. found out that designation works correctly by checking with AG radar, its the diamond on HUD which is wrong. i also found out that the HUD diamond goes up and down as you change barometric altimeter's setting. so yes, the bug is confirmed.

hein22 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Is this really a Syria bug?? So if you change the altimeter in PG the hud diamond won't move? Stay safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hein22 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Ok I tried and it doens't happen in PG. So I guess Syria doesn't have terrain elevation mapped into the hornet DTED, thus depending on altimeter or radalt. Stay safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAW_Impalor Posted November 23, 2020 Author Share Posted November 23, 2020 Also tested on PG, same observation. I don't know if wrong diamond location on HUD and vertical dependence on baro setting on Syria map are related. The baro setting 29.92 in that mission is correct to weather. Changing it do something else does not make sense, and does not correct the problem. I see diamond displaced horizontally as well as vertically. TPOD gives correct coordinates for GDAMs, for example, so the problem is only with HUD. No idea why. 12900KF@5.4, 32GB DDR4@4000cl14g1, 4090, M.2, W10 Pro, Warthog HOTAS, ButtKicker, Reverb G2/OpenXR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAW_Impalor Posted November 24, 2020 Author Share Posted November 24, 2020 Hello. I included a short track where I try to target some warehouses at the end of the pier. In 'cross-hairs' mode on FLIR the HUD diamond is showing above the target. After I do TDC depress the HUD diamond jumps below the target and starts crawling away. The diamond on FLIR is also crawling, so I must constantly correct it until it runs away completely. I did not touch the baro setting in this track, but it also moves the HUD diamond. flir.trk 12900KF@5.4, 32GB DDR4@4000cl14g1, 4090, M.2, W10 Pro, Warthog HOTAS, ButtKicker, Reverb G2/OpenXR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
