So I just started flying the viggen. I can not get a flight plan going. One test i did I created a mission in the editor. It had 5 waypoints. I load in hot start. It appears the viggen computer is pulling way points from an older mission. I try a cold Start. Start the jet, Select the mission editor data catridge, load, enter 9099 and all. Same deal. So I try doing the f10 map markers. Capitalizing each mark points. Go to kneeboard and no option to select the data catridge for map points. I have tried deleting my cache to no avail. I have watched several tutorials and read the manual. Still nothing. Gotta be a bug.

Yeah, the F10 map markers don't seem to update to the data cartridge anymore, ever since the route tool update. Further, the kneeboard's list of waypoints only gives the take-off and landing points. Sometimes a target.

Well, I did a repair of dcs and have working flight plans again. The pilot signout page has only two waypoints still but at least my points in mission editor are working. Hate doing QFE calculations while I'm flying.

A bug that has been fixed internally already :)

That's great. One more quick question. Unrelated. I watched a grimreapers video showing him firing on a jet with a rb75. It tracked and all. I tried it several times and achieved a lock each time. Yet the rb75 would fly straight to the ground. Did they change the way rb75 behave?

I can't get any waypoints into the kneeboard flightplan (except the takeoff & landing) in any of the included 3 campaigns. Neither when I create a mission my self or any of the freeware campaigns I have downloaded. I also tried a slow repair with no change.
Are you saying the DCS repair fixed anything for you?

As mentioned earlier, this is a known bug that has been fixed internally already. It will be available with the next DCS update, cheers 🙂

Ok. Was a bit confused whether it was a bug only related to the F10 map marker creation scenario. Thanks for clarifying.

after the last update I still can not update the Data cartridge with custom points. The route still does not appear in the kneeboard. Did anyone manage it ?
