weapon problem

[airborne1991]

Hello all,

 

I have run into a snag on WOI. I just updated to the latest patch. All weapons appear in loadout screen. I typically choose GBU's or jdams. I fly to objective and release on of the above weapons, it just falls like a dumb bomb(yes, the aircraft I fly have laser designators). Any ideas? This may already have been covered.

Hmm, have u checked the weapon editor to see if anything has changed concerning the guidance system on the Bomb?

Hmmmmmm. I just went into the editor and made sure everything showed. Did not even think to check the individual weapons. thanks.

In general, the launch parameters for LGB's are much tighter now. I've noticed that I need to release much closer to the target than I did before the Oct 08 patches.

I have been releasing at longer distances before the new patch. I will try that and see what happens. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's the problem, as it's happened to me on occasion, when I drop a little closer, they track fine and hit the target. More with GBUs than JDAMs though.

I checked all ranges and tried to drop them within parameters. Still no luck(plane is equipped for laser guidance)
