Shmegegge 1-1 Aero Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 This is due to IRL limitations, so it isn't a bug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toro 6 Posted July 1, 2021 Author Share Posted July 1, 2021 yea I have been told that a couple of times...still consider it a bug..IRL ground crew would not configure weapons systems that can't be used...So DCS should disallow it....I.E. " unable to comply" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admiki Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Then just do what ED has said from the beginning, do not use custom loadouts. Presets work just fine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team NineLine Posted July 5, 2021 ED Team Share Posted July 5, 2021 He does have a point, why would the ground crew load something that isnt able to be used. @toro 6please supply a track and I will get this reported as an improvement, thanks. 5 Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admiki Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Pilot is the one that is in charge of aircraft. During WWII, each fighter pilot and each bomber gunner were free to load ammo mix they considered the best. Don't blame the ground crew if your load doesn't work. Put some effort in and learn what does and what doesn't work. Granted, to do so we will need ED to finish manual first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S. Low Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Engineer: drill this like this me: probably won’t work engineer: I want it done me: ok.... *doesnt work* I imagine this is the interaction between pilot and crew chief 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenin Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 (edited) As long as its possible to build sort of 'odd' loadouts that would theoretically work, then this fine. The last thing I want is not to be able to create my goofy FAC loadout (ATGMS and smoke rockets on one side, HEAT and HE rockets on the other.) For the curious types. Spoiler Burn the excess weight out letting Petro get the weapons online and you're good to go. Edited July 13, 2021 by Fenin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bingbean Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 (edited) Still investigating? This is one of things what should not be strictly IRL. DCS World scenarios are not real as well. In DCS as a game we mostly want and need so many ammo as possible. I like the GUV 8700 machine gun pods, however when i can't use all 8 ATGM with them, then is not worth for me. Come on ED let me use all 8 ATGMs in combination with the gunpods. Edited September 3, 2022 by bingbean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bingbean Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 (edited) What track you are waiting for? It is pretty easy to replicate it. Just load GUV 8700 MG in to pylons 3 and 4 and rockets uder pylons 2 and 5 will not works. No mather if it are ATGM or S-8 or S-5 or S-13.

bingbean Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 It is probably still same issue so i post it here. GUV 8700 HMG on pylons 3 and 4. GUV 8700 AP-30 on pylons 2 and 5. Weapons swich in position GM-30. After pressing trigger, FXD MG 12,7 mm is shooting and dont selected AP-30 grenade launcher. When the MG 12.7 mm goes out of ammo, then AP-30 grenade launcher shoot no matter of the weapons switch is in position GM-30 or FXD MG 7,62+12,7 or FXD MG 12,7 mm. guv.trk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
