Harrier Hud missing Pitch ladder?

Ever since I updated to 2.5 release, the AV-8B has been missing the Pitch ladder. It is working fine in the 2.5 open beta. I cannot find any way to turn it on. This happens in the instant action Free flight as well as the cold and dark. The INS is in Nav mode so to my knowledge, it should be showing. Am I missing something?

Well, as expected, it was something I didn't do. There is a Special settings page for the Harrier which you select an option for the INS. When I looked at that nothing was selected, so I selected an option and the ladder was right where it was supposed to be. Leaving this here just in case I am not the only old guy who missed it.:doh:

Thanks Firebird1955 for sharing this.

I had the same problem and what solved it was turning the INS Mode Knob all the way clockwise to Gyro, then optionally settings it to any other mode

Thank you also for this fix, helped another old guy out.

I have the same problem. Where can I find this special Options page?

In DCS settings. Look for the Special tab.

It's not there because you need to align the jet now.

Thanks for the help however, I still do not have pitch ladder. Where do I go to align jet?

In the Options page there is no special tab. Very frustrating to attempt to fly plane without pitch ladder...especially at night!

So from the DCS home screen (with all the module icons along the bottom) you go to settings at the top and there is no ‘special’ tab?

Thanks for all your help. I now have pitch ladder on my HUD. Now all I have to do is learn to fly the Harrier

Has this changed?

I'm still having this issue but that option no longer appears to be in the special options page. Any suggestions?

Did you align the INS?

A friend of mine had the same problem and it was related to the resolution setting.

If You have a low resolution setting in options you'll not see the pitch ladder on HUD, funny! :lol:

It's a long standing issue when using the "low textures" setting. It was first reported in April 2018 and is now in the "Resolved Bugs" section.

HUD information missing when low textures settings enabled. Elements such as the pitch ladder, targetting pod/mav ques, gun piper center dots, do not appear on the HUD.

 

All elements appear fine on medium and high texture settings.

It's not resolved for me. It's still happening but only in multiplayer.
