F-4E ADV + VFR - Can not fire any weapon

Post by Raphael_Chacon » Thu Jul 26, 2018 8:05 pm

Hello,

I just configured my aircraft for direct bombing and actually it is not dropping the bombs, nor firing the gun.....

Image

Ive tested other modes also. Well, half/full action buttons wont do anything except lock in the front radar screen, but bombs are not being droped at all. I can see the weapons loaded in the aircraft normally though.

I just fresh installed my PC, install method was:

1- Install Base
2- Install Tacpack(Milviz F-4, not VRS)
3- Install ADV
4- Install VRS Tacpack 1.5.0.3(Lastest beta)

Is there something i can do to try?

Thanks in advance for support,

You using a Warthog? Do you have other TACPACK aircraft and does pickle/trigger work with them?

No, i only use my favorite, the F-4..... and i dont have any other military installed... (ou, yeah, i have yours Uh-1 Hellicopter, but no other)...

For instance, about the Pickle Trigger i understand it is called the Half/Full Action button mappings, right? Because anyway i can drop Flare/Chafs, but no bombs, gun at all... Or is there any other button mapping for that trigger?(I dont remember i did that before)... :?:

The trigger stage 1 in the AMS is only for future functionality, and the full/half action commands are for radar locking only. You have to map the pickle and trigger in the TACPACK manager.

Ou.... :shock:

For some reason i had a lot of problems in the past with mappings..... I couldnt save the modifications and the bombs were dropped by using the Full/Half action buttons(Probbably another corrupt thing). I just got used to it...

I had to fresh format adding a new M2 SSD as main disk and now things are going as they should...

Ok, testing, Ill be right back to confirm if everything is normal....
