Hey guys, i have bought DCS FC3, when i tried A10, F-15C, they was amazing, but when i chose example in A10 air to ground mode, i cant select Missile etc, only cannon, even if i press "C" Only hud aim changes. also in F-15 when i select Air to air missile, only cannon shot, Note : all weapons are loaded!

cannons are fired with a different button than missiles and rockets... i think it is alt+space for missiles and rockets

I already tried that, didn't work.

 

then check the buttons configuration. if you are always firing cannons then you are always pressing the fire cannon button.

 

alt+enter??? check

also, you need to press the missile firing button for 1 or 2 seconds for them to be released

But did you check the button config to seek for the right command?

 

Try this for the f15: start a mission in the air and press 4, make sure you have a missile selected (green box around the name) in the Programmable Armament Control set or PACS (the mfd that shows the payload). Then press RALT+SPACE for a few seconds until the missile fires.

 

Right ALT not any ALT + ENTER for a few seconds.

Actually I can't select anti-air missiles either, In the A10-A campaign, maybe a default loadout bug. The weapon selector just skips them and switches through AGMs and Bombs.

 

I'll try rearming manually.

 

EDIT: I switched the ALQ-184 with the same AIM 9M 2x missiles to the other tips manually, same problem, i'll try without ALQ now.

 

I made a lot of combinations, seems like no anti air is possible, but the ECM apparently works. Maybe it's a design feature of the early levels, I think im at level 6.

Have you entered the A-A mode

 

Sounds like you're still in A-G mode
