RimanDk Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 I go through the cutscene, load into the Tomcat on the catapult, get the magazine. The call to scramble and launch comes in, the magazine goes away and... that's it. Nothing more happens. Am I missing something? I have tried closing the canopy manually, but to no avail. Paco never launches, the dialog with Chig never triggers. I'm just stuck. I have tried both MT and regular and it's the same with either. Help?

Solution Jayhawk1971 Posted March 24, 2023 Solution Share Posted March 24, 2023 How long did you wait? "Never" is a very relative term. It's called "Alert 5" for a reason. I've played this mission 4 times now (probably my favorite out of the Marianas part of the campaign), and I launched every time. Twice with MT. It just takes a couple of minutes from signal to actual launch. After the helicopter takes off, the launch sequence starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reflected Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Wait until the ship turns into the wind and Paco launches. Once Paco launches you can launch too. After the magazine is put away you close the canopy and the convo begins. do you have any mods installed?

I didn't notice any change of direction in the ship and the conversation never triggered regardless of whether I closed the canopy or not. I have a couple of mods installed: A-4 T-45 F-22 Bronco Blackhawk English cockpit for the Viggen Community keybinds 19 hours ago, Jayhawk1971 said: How long did you wait?

I'll try again and pay attention to it - thanks! Edited March 25, 2023 by RimanDk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RimanDk Posted March 25, 2023 Author Share Posted March 25, 2023 Situation resolved. I was missing the whole helicopter sequence. I never get the "Chig, I'm closing the canopy" dialogue, but if I wait out the helicopter, the rest works as expected. Cheers, guys! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
