Topgun505 Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 When I try to do a gun run on a target, as I bring the piper to bear on the target the target designation diamond disappears. Very annoying. I'm assuming that the setting in IFFCC for Gun Cross Occult controls this behavior. When I try to get in to the IFFCC to change the setting for the CCIP Gun Cross Occult it appears to take the change, I hit Enter and flip the IFFCC switch up to On, and the it's doing the same thing as before. I go back in to IFFCC and the value is back at the previous value so it doesn't appear to be saving. Two questions. 1. Is this setting in IFFCC in fact what controls this behavior in the first place? 2. What am I doing wrong that this value isn't saving in IFFCC? Or is this a bug?

The occult setting only works for the cross IIRC. the cross is better anyway [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] MB: DFI Lanparty UT P35-T2R CPU: Core 2 Quad Q6600 G0 @ 3,6 GHz @ 1,328V VGA: MSI GTX460 HAWK @ 850/1700/1000 MHz MFCD: Eizo S2231 22" S-PVA RAM: A-Data Vitesta 2 x 2048 MB @ 960 MHz FLT EQPM: Saitek X-52 Pro, TrackIR 5

mic1184 Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 also it only works in CCIP mode, if you switch to GUNS it won't work. took me some time to figure that out [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] MB: DFI Lanparty UT P35-T2R CPU: Core 2 Quad Q6600 G0 @ 3,6 GHz @ 1,328V VGA: MSI GTX460 HAWK @ 850/1700/1000 MHz MFCD: Eizo S2231 22" S-PVA RAM: A-Data Vitesta 2 x 2048 MB @ 960 MHz FLT EQPM: Saitek X-52 Pro, TrackIR 5
Topgun505 Posted March 1, 2011 Author Posted March 1, 2011 @Lixma ... I don't believe at any point I turned off the IFFCC after making the changes. Will have to try it again though to double check. @mic ... straffing with the CCIP pipper?? Has anyone else gotten this to work right? Or are folks generally straffing with the gun cross and not the standard gun pipper?

Le0kong Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Note that the option name is 'CCIP Gun Cross Occult', it only works when you are in CCIP mode. In GUNS mode it will always occult the symbollogy. Never seen anybody able to any other way.

mic1184 Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 (edited) yes it definitely works only in CCIP mode, in which you "only" have the gun cross. we're not talking about the CCIP bomb pipper, but about the gun cross you always get additionally in the CCIP screen. in GUNS mode with the huge gun pipper it was said that it's a "feature" of the real life avionics so that you can see better what you're aiming at.

Le0kong Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Here is a screenshot showing what we mean. Note the gun cross is not oculting the HUD SPI box, that is what that IFFCC option does.
