shomke Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 (edited) I all, I made a comeback to DCS yesterday evening after 6 weeks off. Obviously some updates got installed before I could take off with my Mirage. I was surprised to see that any command was assigned to my hotas trigger, which I usually used for weapon release... And I could not find back the Fire Control (or whatever the name) in the list of command. Only found a command named "Canon trigger" which didn't help. Did I miss some recent changes on the hotas commands? Since I only had little time to play, I quickly gave up and went to destroy some bombers on IL2 instead...

It's stated in the latest update presentation. Quite some bindngs broke, MICROB being among them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preendog Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Does anybody know what the "Gun Trigger" does do? I find it doesn't actually shoot the gun in A/A or A/G, unless there's a special mode where it does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an additional security for gun firing, you need to have it to ARM, alongside MASTER ARM, to be able to shoot with gun in AA Gun master mode, or with AG Gun (CAS) selected in AG attack mode. Gun trigger work with 'BRM' bind if you want to have one button for gun (Gun Trigger), and one for Bomb/Rocket/Missile (BRM). This is not realistic though as M2000C use a single trigger for all, called MiCRoB (stands for Missile Canon Rocket Bomb). You have a bind for MiCRoB stage 1, and MiCRoB Stage 2, latest being the one to be used for shooting.

Hell0 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Hey, In the missiles instant mission I have switched the gun safety and master arm (one might be on already) but can’t fire although I can lock. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirage 2000C uses two stage trigger to fire weapons after the update, it takes 30 second to check all HOTAS bindings to see anything missing. There's a HOTAS category in control options.

I believe , i am doing something wrong with the new fire procedure. I lock the bandit (530 selected and ready + master arm on) Then click to microb 2 to remove safety but no shoot at trigger and HUD do not display more the lock after trigger ?!!?!?? With Magic2 same no shooting Am i doing any wrong in procedure ? Heeelllpppp... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kercheiz Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Missiles, and especially 530D, require keeping the trigger pressed until launch It can take almost 3s to fire a 530D if you are in PSID lock mode. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tosmonaute Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Hello Kercheiz, Yes i know about the long trigger of the M2000, all went wrong since last updates, i did both in same time DCS + Mirage... At binding all is ok when i press the buttons and trigger on my HOTAS all is ok, just in flight it impossible to shoot! This is why i believe there must be some wrong with my procedure but i do not see what! Master arm - Microb 2 - Lock then trigger should shoot! right!?!!???

I think you are misunderstanding something, MiCRoB second stage is the command you need to press and hold to fire the weapon.

Hell0 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 (edited) I’m in the same boat. Arm is on. Lock target microb second stage. Nothing fires. it used to work. Edited February 6, 2022 by Hell0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kercheiz Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 It does work, you are doing something wrong. Check your bind, and keep trigger pressed until the S530 fires Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohhh I thought it was press the MiCRoB 2nd stage and AFTER i press the trigger. Thanks so much for your help myHelljumper! If i understood well : 1) master arm > 2) lock > 3) MiCRoB 2nd Stage to fire. And thanks to all for helping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
