Hobel Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 (edited) As far as the AGM88 is selected in the F16, the HSD crosshairs no longer follow the TGP, But if I lock a target on the HST side and then move the TGP, the crosshairs move again with it. Starting at 1:20 you can see me create an area for the TGP and HSD crosshairs to focus on. But this happened unintentionally and to repeat this I manage rather accidentally despite the same procedure is this an intended behavior?

TEOMOOSE Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 (edited) Because your sensor point of interest is steerpoint 01, and HTS defaults to EOM, which is using a predefined location in other words your selected, steerpoint. But when you designated a sam on the HAD page, it will make that your SPI, and it will slew the tgp to that point where it think it is. Than the crosshair should move as well on the HSD. TGP markpoints gonna be your best friend here. When you the see sam site, thru tgp, go point track, icp7, tms up etc etc. Make that your spi, handoff sam to harm and magnum. - if you would have some other types, like bombs selected it will work as you have described it, including the ag radar.

And why is this also the case when the Harm is off or the HAS page is selected? And the TGP is also my SOI? Look at the video, from 1:20 I create a point of interest how did I do that exactly I always succeeds more by random vor 2 Stunden schrieb TEOMOOSE: TGP markpoints gonna be your best friend here.

TEOMOOSE Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Because your sensor point of interest is steerpoint 01, and the HTS is defaults to EOM, which needs a steerpoint to navigate to. Therefore, you may target sams, relying the HTS only, or use HTS, and fine tune it with the tgp. When you hav tgp over the target, create a TGP markpoint, from that point forward you no longer need to use the HTS because now you the markpoint as the SPI.

TEOMOOSE Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 (edited) When you use the HTS and you do not have a sam designated or handed off to the harm, means it dosent have a SPI, sensor point of interest. Edited May 16, 2022 by TEOMOOSE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can give the AGM88 a new approach point via the AG radar. why SOI differ between AG radar and TGP and that only for AGM88? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TEOMOOSE Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 (edited) Hows the AG radar relevant in this conversation, i used that as an example to your question, saying, if you would use other ammunitions like bombs than you would see the crosshair because you are in A, CCRP, B, DTOS, either way you have the target Designator Box on the HUD which correlates to the tgp, and that gives the targeting solutions. When you using the HARm with the HTS pod, and you did not hand off a target to your harm to target, than it has no sensor point of interest to give a targeting solutions which you would see on the hud, like min and mx lofting cues etc. Edited May 16, 2022 by TEOMOOSE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TEOMOOSE Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Looking at your video again, confirms what i have just said. The harm need a SAVED coordinate to fly to, without it, no spi, and no TD Box - target designator box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobel Posted May 16, 2022 Author Share Posted May 16, 2022 (edited) Well, I can move the HSD crosshairs with the AG radar as well as the AGM88 can give a new approach point. With all other weapons, however, the procedure works with both TGP and AG radar. why is the TGP with the AGM88 then an exception? Yes and how do I create this random SOI as you see in the video on which I could have shot with the AGM88? This contradicts with what you said.

Becasue the TGP and the harm dosent communicate with each other. Thats the HTS - HArm Targeting Sensor pod job to communicate with the harm missile and that is why its able hand off target to it.

jazjar Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 This may be related to the thread about TGP moving SPI but SPI not moving TGP. Answer there was SPI is still work in progress, probably affects this too. 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weidlich Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 (edited) Hi! The open beta released on 28th April lists this as a fix: Fixed: White cross on HSD when using AG mode is missing However it is not fixed, this bug report still applies, everything is unchanged: I didn't attach any files or screenshots as it is exactly the same.

Furiz Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 You didn't explain the situation there, we can't tell much from that HSD image, What weapon you have selected? For example HARM will not have that cross showing on HSD If bombs, which mode are you on etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weidlich Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 (edited) After playing with the displays I found out what is different from before it got broken/fixed: The cross will be displayed in AG mode, but only if you have the TGP active on one screen and the HSD active on the other screen. In this combination it doesn't matter wether if the TGP or HUD is the SOI, the cross will be displayed and moves when you move around. However as soon as you deselect the TGP on the one screen the cross will disappear on the HSD. Before it got broken the cross was always displayed on the HSD independent from the TGP and always showed the position where your SOI is looking at on the ground. I hope the track and the description is clear enough. Maybe the implemented fix is not perfect or the logic before was better than the original one on the plane. My standard display setup is alternating HSD/TGP on the left and the WPN on the right. So looking for GND targets premarked on the HSD I was able to slew over the target with the HUD and had the cross on the HSD as my reference. Then I could switch to TGP display and fine tune to fire the Maverick. This way of deploying my weapon doesn't work because the TGP display is missing. Kind regards dcs.log Position cross error.trk Edited June 1, 2022 by Weidlich http://www.sysprofile.de/id17271 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
