Auto Bombing Issue

[WTREG]

Hi All, Sorry to be a pain.

 

Having issues on releasing dumb and Laser guided bombs in the AUTO delivery mode (Won't release, upon passing release cue)

I usually follow this procedure: (Of course with gear up, flaps AUTO, Nozzles 0 degrees)

A/G Mode

Select weapon on stores page

Mode auto

Fuze set

Quantity and interval set

Master Arm ON

Using a pre-selected coordinate, TPOD, or DMT to create a designated point. (Designated with TDC Down)

Fly straight through the vertical line

10 seconds before drop, hold pickle, continue to hold through release line until weapon release... But, no weapon release.

 

Quite a pain when trying to toss bomb, drop GBU's etc. I can provide a track if wanted. 

 

Thanks for any help, I love my little Harrier.

Probably you missed the "Press the WP Increment button LONG (more than 0.8 sec) to transfer target coordinates to Target Point T0 and select T0." part. (Chuck's guide)

Thanks for replying. 

I've given the Chucks guide process a thorough follow through but couldn't produce any weapon releases. It's rather odd! I used to be able to release every time, but it just stopped. 

I have fully uninstalled, then reinstalled the module to no avail.

I don't own the Germany CW map, so can't run the replay, on my end no LGB/GBU auto bombing issues.

Do you use mods?

I'll try to record a track on Cauc later on. 

 

I tried again today, adding the WPInc long to the procedure. No issues on LGB/GBU, similar to you. But, no release for MK81/2/3's

 

No mods, other than the A4e community mod.

I've tested all dumb bomb release modes with the attached mission and found no issues, put in active pause and configure the AC for the bomb run, tgt's are at 20nm. Try with removing the A-4E and performing a full DCS repair, if it still doesn't work post a track and a DCS log.

Thanks for putting that together, I really appreciate it. Interestingly,still no releases. Fresh repair etc.

 

Again, any help appreciated. Thanks.

first and second track: no A/G master mode selected, no weapon selected through stores page, so no fuze settings applied.

Thank you, that's extremely strange, My screen recording shows different. What I'll do is try and select A/G from the game (I have a streamdeck linked, which usually acts as my mode selector) and see if it works. How odd 

[BJ55]

Uh, DCS tracks are still bugged?! Try without Stream Deck and search in the dcs.log for errors.

I've had a peek through everything and can't see anything related to the issue. 

 

Only other thing installed was SRS, but I had removed that for a fresh install months before the issue, and re installed last night. It's had no effect.

 

Again, thank you for the help - it's such an odd one, I had no trouble - until I did! 

 

I made a little video showing the issue.

Updated video link, apologies for the previous mistake

I block everything from Google, so no chance to see the (ad infested) youtube, hope someone else take a look at it. Sorry.
