F-4J/S V1.5.0.9 weapons, AG radar and other questions

Post by Enrico Bj » Mon Jan 15, 2018 3:47 pm

Thanks for the last update, I really missed the ILS during night traps, now finals are less terrifying! :D

Some questions:
-sometimes AA radar mode or cursor get stuck, I need to cycle radar power to regain functionality, is it deliberate?
-the rear right AIM7 won't leave the station, the release failure happens at every flight.
-bombs do not explode, something has changed in the arming time?
-I have no idea on how to use the AG radar of the naval Phantom, any help?
(-ADF volume knob textures are missing)

1: I can't think of any reason for the mode or cursor to get stuck.....Definitely not deliberate. In what way does the mode get stuck?
2: You are holding in the trigger for a while waiting for it to fire?
3: You are remembering to set the fuse on the dog bone?
4: The map modes are inop. The A-G ranging mode is the same as the E, but you don't need to go through the lock process to use it. It is automated.
5: Will investigate.

1- sometimes the cursor does't move on range, only on azimuth, this happens when exiting boresight mode or when changing from AG to AA, pressing AtA button does't work, I need to turn off the radar, put it on standby for a while, then turn it on again.
2- holding the trigger was not only only for launching the Sidewinders? I've did a try right now, the Sparrow won't leave the station.

3- For the 82SE I set inst/os, labs, dl auto, ripple, arm nose+tail , all stations, probably I'm doing something wrong...
4- i can't get it to work, bombs only drop in direct mode.

Thanks.

I confirm that AG radar is OK, bomb control switches were not in the correct position. (pilot error)
Another thing I forgot to mention: target longitude jumps from E/W 89 to E/W 100.

Best regards.
