[Resolved] HOBOS not deployable with weapon selector in TV mode

[vapor721]

The HOBOS bombs cannot be deployed with the weapon selector in TV mode. They can be deployed with the weapon selector in BOMB mode, and have to be fused to explode, but even in this case they can only be dropped as unguided munitions, the DSCG never displays the HOBOS camera. Attached is a track with the jet loaded with both HOBOS and Walleye II munitions. You can see that the Walleyes behave as expected, but following the same procedure for the HOBOS does not produce expected results. I can drop them as bombs, however, and I demonstrate that with one dropped while not being fused and the other dropped with a nose-tail fusing. The former does not detonate while the latter does.

Thanks for an awesome product, really been enjoying the jet!

The HOBOS are broken in the current DCS version. The issue was fixed internally already, available with the next update. Cheers
