Newbee M2000 Pilot Needs Help Selecting Magic Missiles

Recommended Posts

I know I must be doing something wrong. I've watched the tutorials on how to select the magic II missles, but when I click on its button there is no change to the hud, no "p" showing up on the selector button below MAG.

 

I tried in VR, outside of VR, in several different missions.

 

I tried with clicking and with Lctrl-1.

 

I can select and shoot the 530 no problem, and guns as well.

 

Any suggestions?

Well, I'll be darned

 

Just after my previous post, I happen to look at the change log as listed here:

 

https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=245165

 

And wouldn't you know it says:

 

"8. CAN and MAGIC can only be selected via HOTAS."

 

I have to say, trying to figure out why it wasn't working had me spinning my head around. Perhaps my fault for not reading about it first, but I have to say its about as counter intuitive as one can get.

 

I wonder how many other heads out there are close to exploding.

 

I can select it fine now via hotus.

Hi,

 

 

 

not sure which tutorials exactly you watched. In case you didn't know, the Mirage is undergoing some major rework right now, in order to get the system (e.g. weapons selection / HUD ) closer to real aircraft functionality.

 

 

So there are many things that don't work the way they did before , due to changed (more realistic) functionality.

Could be , even likely, that your tutorials still referred to the pre-update state of systems.

 

 

So you can now either search these RAZBAM forums for instructions on how to work the new system design or you wait until the

 

Mirage overhaul is completed (could still be a little while) and the new manual and training missions are rolled out along with it.

 

 

 

Hope that helps.

 

 

 

Kind regards,

Hello my friend.

It's simple!

Now, MAGIC and cannon are not selectable from PCA.

 

You need to go to controls and ASSIGN A BUTTON to

CNM MAGIC

CNM AA GUN

CNM NEUTRAL (PCA SELECT)

 

The CNM NEUTRAL "exits" from the MAGIC or AA GUN mode and comes back to normal PCA. It's needed to select later a bomb or AG MODE.
