When I shoot my Hydra HEAT missiles they are going 45 or more degrees to the left? How is this possible? 

Is this they downside of DCS only being in Beta mode?

I'm having the same issues in Mission Editor, however the training missions and instant missions rockets work fine , and rockets fire as expected.

Guns are unaffected .  

The XM158 Rocket Pod will fire True North or True South ( totally useless )

This undesirable change occurred with the latest update , on 8-14-2024.

Good Luck ED Team !

Yes, this happened to me too on the final (very climactic) mission of the Paradise Lost campaign. Womp, womp. Talk about ruining the experience...and such peak DCS that a visual fix broke how the rockets actually work!

So the patch today didn't fix this? I've not yet tried using rockets since last week's patch, just doing cargo runs and crew extraction/insertion with guns. Seriously cripples the Huey.

Paradise Lost you say? I just bought that two days ago and just started it yesterday. Good to know. Thanks. I'll stick with other campaigns (UN pilot) til this is fixed.

Same issue, Not sure about cardinal direction, but the rockets that you start off with in the easy ground attack mission on the PG map come out of the helo and go 90 degrees right to the start direction.  Also did an update today, this hasn't changed anything.

I've been getting heavy into DCS again and the Huey and bought most of the campaigns, I finished the MAD campaign yesterday and one of those missions required the use of rockets and it didn't do this, but on a free flight previously and one of the default missions I just tried it did this. Not sure if it's map specific or the MAD mission used different unguided rockets?? Anyways, really bummer timing as I'm balls deep into this thing right now.
