WOE AIM-7 Question

[crusaderjas 0]

I am new to WOE coming from many other sims including WOV. For some reason I cannot figure out why my AIM-7's won't fire. I can't even get them to Aquire Targets. Correct me if I am wrong but in WOV

all you had to do was select the AIM-7 and they would lock onto targets inside of 7 miles automatically. Am I missing something? A key congfig or a new feature perhaps?

What patch are you using? That may help, along with what aircraft too... As I've hadn't had too many problems using Sparrows in the rare event I use them..

Problem solved. I re-installed and then re-applied the patch and I am good now AIM-7s Fire with no problem. Thanks for everyones interest in trying to help me out

Make sure you are actually using the radar to acquire targets. In earlier patches it would lock on for you, but TK added some realism and you have to work the radar.

And don't forget the AI will now attempt to break radar lock, sometimes with quite some success at longer ranges.

Experienced this just last night. Engaging multiple targets at max range for the missle and if the target broke that distance the missle would loose sight. All in all a great game. I see what you mean about the radar work, but that only adds to the game. Now I am looking for new planes and skins...anyone got any favorite sites for downloads?

Well this site has about 95% of all the downloads - plus if you look on the home page there are links to Column 5 and marcfighters for some others
