Hi,

I'm having trouble releasing GBU-8. Tried it twice now. Cockpit is all set up, direct mode, TV, stations armed, got a lock on TV screen, holding both trigger and pickle, but the bombs aren't releasing.

Could my fuse settings be a problem? I believe in all cases I had fuse set to nose or nose&tail. I can see that it should be left to off. But the bomb still should drop shouldn't it?

Thanks

Could you share a screenshot of the pilots front cockpit area? Usually that solves the issue 🙂

(Track file would be great as well of course)

I fly in VR with Quadviews so the quality won't be great.

The trackfile is my second attempt at Reflected Red Flag's campaign's GBU-8 mission. In both cases, nothing was released, even though that mission also has checklist that I follow.

Let me know if you see anything outstanding! Thanks

Yeah, bit hard to read. Nothing jumps my eye though.

So we probably need a trackfile instead. 🙂 

You may also share a screenshot of your trigger binds, possibly you bound the wrong thing (1st stage, or using a physical 2stage on the button binds instead etc)

I use VKB stick, with a 2-stage trigger. Of note, in the VKB software, when I hold down second stage of the trigger, then both stage 1 and 2 light up. Could that be messing with the release cue?

I'm having the same failure to release issue. Walleyes and Mavericks release fine, but the GBU-8s seem bugged.
