So I was on a server that restricted "smart" weapons. So my loadout was dumb bombs and rockets without a TGP. I couldn't aim anything because I couldn't bring up A2G mode to get any kind of targeting with the rockets or bombs.

 

Is there a way to get a gun sight or anything else without a TGP? Can you get into CCIP, CCRP, or Guns mode without a TGP?

Have you tried turning on the Weapons and Gun's Mater Arm switch, then using "M" to cycle between Guns and Weapons? Also, make sure your SPI is set to the HUD and use (I believe) PageDown key to cycle between rockets, bombs, etc.

 

Hope that helps!

Yes, of course you can. Just select a pylon in DSMS page and cycle your HUD master mode with "M" key. Easy like this :thumbup:

 

Yeah, when I did this with rockets selected. All i got in the bottom left corner when I hit master mode was ARM in the bottom left corner. No aiming piper. Master mode just cycled ARM and then nothing in the bottom left.

Yeah I did this. No gun piper showed up like when you are A2G mode with a TGP. All you get is the standard piper at the top of the HUD and not the one that moves like in A2G mode.

Well I couldn't get into CCIP mode or even get a pipper. The rockets were hitting in front of my plane but just couldn't not aim properly without a pipper.

 

I know how to do this WITH a TGP. I just trying to figure out how to aim WITHOUT a TGP.

Not claiming to be an expert but what has the TGP to do with the CCIP piper? Am I missing some closely guarded insider knowledge here? :) Can I select different weapons while in the TGP? (I don't mean the Master Mode) I was always under the impression I had to have HUD SOI and use the DataManagementSwitch(DMS) LEFT+RIGHT.

 

Or have I simply misunderstood the question?

Also maybe interesting for you, what post #6 means are the different Consent to release modes:

There is no difference at all between weapon selection and aiming with or without a TGP. It works exactly the same way, apart from not being able to slew suff to the TGP, obviously.
