certain weapons wont fire.

Hey people,

 

Recently saw woe in the stores decided to buy it, since i already had sfp1.

Been a while so i dont really know exactly if im missing something.

Installed the weapon pack, the patch and some custom planes.

Also changed the dates so i can use all the weapons.

But now on certain planes like the F14 some missles wont fire at all, loaded up phoenix missles and sidewinders.

The sidewinders launched just fine but the phoenix missles wouldnt fire at all, i remember from sfp1 that they worked just fine.

 

it could be that im missing something or keep forgetting something, it also happens on the mirage (the blue french missle(excuse me that i dont know all the names from my head )

 

Good to see that combat ace is back up, now bring the files back and im even more happy. :)

 

anyway if somebody knows what might be causing the missle problem please tell.

Did you lock anything up with the Phoenix's? If you didnt they wont fire.

Doing some arcadish dogfighting mostly, need a new system before i can go simming again,

 

basicly doing the standard target lock that works with sidewinders and the other missles just targeting and fireing.

Do i need to do a checklist before i can fire phoenix missles in woe?

since the just target and fire worked in sfp1?

You need to acquire a target with radar before you can launch either a Semi Active Homing Missile (SAHM) such as an AIM-7 Sparrow, or an Active Homing Missile (AHM), such as an AIM-54 Phoenix or AIM-120 AMRAAM.

 

In the AIM-7's case, you also need to maintain target lock while the missile's in flight, or it will not guide.

 

Here's an excellent guide by Streakeagle, that should help you understand the process: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showtopic=11165
