EliteKatze Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Hey guys, so I noticed that recently the new R4M and the other heavier rockets have been added and they work great. But I noticed, that if i pick rockets and a SC250/500 bomb, the rockets cant be launched, even after dropping the bomb. I also made sure several times, that the bomb control switch was set to Off(Aus) and the rockets switch is set to on. But as I said, if i dont equip a bomb, then it works great. Now I wanted to know if the developers are aware of this problem/bug and are they gonna fix it? thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EliteKatze Posted August 14, 2016 Author Share Posted August 14, 2016 wow - i have been away. i wonder if they are worth the time to add into the DoW missions for y'all? as long as you can only have bombs OR rockets, the rockets are rather useless, exept you are good at shooting the r4m at unarmored the targets accurately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art-J Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Timed fuses don't help, though we've been told they would be changed to correct impact ones at some point in the future. So right now, as EK said, they're more of a gimmick rather than an efficient weapon, but they might evolve into something useful in next game updates. i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.

ac5 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Hey guys, so I noticed that recently the new R4M and the other heavier rockets have been added and they work great.

Now I wanted to know if the developers are aware of this problem/bug and are they gonna fix it? thanks in advance! I confirm, as long as one mounts bombs, the rockets don't work, regardless if the bombs are on on or off position, or regardless if the bombs are away or not. As soon as one DOES NOT MOUNT BOMBS in the ME, then both types of rockets work just fine. This must be a bug.... ! ?

razo+r Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 You can load bombs and rockets the same, but you use your bombs first, and once you dropped them, to make sure, pull the "Rumpflast" handle, then set bombs off and rockets on and then you can use the rockets, then they work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DefaultFace Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Last time I tested it only works when using the 4x SC50 loadout. With the SC 250 (or 500? can't remember haven't flown in a few weeks) you cannot jettison the bomb rack, therefore you can't 'switch' over to the rockets. 9./JG27 "If you can't hit anything, it's because you suck.

razo+r Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) Confirmed, rockets won't fire if you load the SC-500 Edited January 23, 2017 by razo+r Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ac5 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Also here. Rockets won't fire if one loads the SC-500, also after pulling the "Rumpflast" handle (Jettison).

VagTech Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Only works for me with the 4XSC50, will not work with the 250 or 500kg bombs and rockets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ac5 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Re-Confirmed. Rockets won't fire if one loads the SC-500, drop the bomb, and pull the "Rumpflast" handle (Jettison). BUT! Rockets fire OK if one loads the 4XSC50, but ONLY after dropping all 4 bombs AND AFTER pulling the "Rumpflast" handle (Jettison). Must be a bug, because it makes no sense. A word from acknowledgement from the developers would be greatly appreciated.......

DefaultFace Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Well it's because the pylon from the big bomb can't be jettisoned. I assume the signal from the weapon release switch defaults to the bomb rack and then goes to the wing stations if there is no rack there. Not sure if this is how it worked irl. Tbh would imagine it was a a switch set when loading the aircraft on the ground and therefore only one or the other could be used but like o said not sure. 9./JG27 "If you can't hit anything, it's because you suck.
