[AS INTENDED] GBU38 not coming off the rails since patch

[stoop]

Since yesterday's patch I can't get the GBU38's to come off the rails when pickling when the in range marker comes over my aircraft.

 

First thing I noticed is that the range was no longer designated by  the max and min range circles - now it is a red line with max and min tick marks.

 

Then with Master arm on, TGTS T01 thru T10 assigned from the F10 map imported and applied to the GBU38's with Fuze set to INST, I wait until I am inside the red ranging line and hit pickle and nothing happens ... tap it multiple times, nothing, hold it down, nothing.

 

I'm doing exactly the same thing I did before yesterday's update and it's now broken.

Hey,

 

please try the following and report if that fixed your problem:

 

1.) Visually aquire Target with your TPOD in TPOD SOI Mode

2.) Press TDC Down to set a Target Point

3.) Hold long Waypoint Increment to set the Target Point T0 as Steerpoint

4.) Press DESG on your EHSD to set the Steerpoint as a Target

5.) Select JDAM and Fuze

6.) Hold long Waypoint Increment to set Target Point as TOO (the red line appears)

7.) Now your Hud symbology should show a circle with N0 below it

8.) Once in Range the Circle will become thick outlined, this is going to unwind Counter Clockwise

9.) As soon as the unwinding is at the 7-3 o'clock position press and _HOLD_ pickle button

The JDAM will release after about 1.5 seconds. This is the time it takes to transfer GPS data from the Airframe to the bomb.

10.) You will hear the 'clonck' of the bomb dropping, you can let go of the pickle button

 

If this still doesnt work please submit a Trackfile (see Sticky)

Step 9 is the major change with JDAM's. Make sure you are holding the pickle button for that 1.5 seconds, or it will not come off the jet.

Pickle button must be held for 1.5 seconds. This is to simulate the data transfer to the JDAM. Marking AS INTENDED and moving to RESOLVED.
