Sting_Array Posted 19 hours ago Posted 19 hours ago Hello - since the update, GPS Guided JDAMS no longer hit their target. By way of procedure, I have used the DCS Route Tool (in the F10 map) to place a waypoint over the target (when fully zoomed in). Elevation is set to 0 AGL. The resulting waypoint is then loaded into the F16 on next start - and with the ordnance powered on, and the aircraft fenced in, I fly directly to the target - releasing the weapon once the timer has reached 0 and the carat is 'in zone'. The bombs consistently fall off target (between 50 and 100 m would be my estimate.) I have tried the same bombing run in the Hornet - and the same ordnance is accurate. This suggests a bug in the Viper (perhaps the return of an old bug involving the INS?). Hoping this can be fixed - and, in the meantime, does anyone happen to know of any workaround? Thanks

Thanks Please post a (short as possible and preferably on Caucus map) track file. You can save a track file from the debriefing window when you close the mission. That will allow people to check that you're not missing a step somewhere or reproduce the bug. ED devs also have additional tools that allows them to use a trackfile for more deeper debugging. 1
Sting_Array Posted 15 hours ago Author Posted 15 hours ago Travelling for the coming week. Will post track file in about seven days. I mention this in case the lack of an immediate response is taken to indicate a lack of commitment to resolving this issue. S 1
Pyrocumulous Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago I am not experiencing any issue with F16C JDAM accuracy in 2.9.18.12722. For best accuracy, use targeting pod to refine actual target position and use laser ranging, adjust the impact angle to near vertical, release near the center of the launch window.
