I am not sure if this is a bug, or I am missing something. The Kiowa does not seem to have any fire control system. Neither the Hellfire missiles or the Stingers will lock on to anything. I assumed it would work just like the Viper, but it does not seem to be functioning.

Hellfires work both in LOAL and LOBL mode. Just use DTV or FLIR for targeting.
Stingers work too. But it's really difficult to lock the flying target by DTV or FLIR.
Do you need video to support my words?

Hiding in the bushes
I was able to down enemy Ka-52 with the Stinger in the Kiowa, looked like boresight mode of acqusition. Just selected the Stinger and pointed my nose in general direction of the target and the seeker locked on it. The FLIR(?) on the mast also work, you can lock targets, but I didn't fired any Hellfires yet.

Edit: Hellfires work too wink

That's weird. I cannot seem to lock up anything, but I will keep trying. Thanks for the replies:)

^ It works exactly as in reality wink try track a moving target with the zoom telescope 20-30 x, you will know how difficult it is;)

Yup, it's weird. But I was not informed about other targeting systems. Probably boresight should be implemented, but there was no such targeting system in EECH.

I started Europe Map 2 a few hours ago and I played for 21 minutes on the Blue side and then I saved it and quit the game.

http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/3705849/Re_Careful_KA_50_crashes_on_V1#Post3705849

I just now try to load the same saved game as the Blue Side and it crashed.

I tried again as the Red Side and it crashed too.

memory reference something can't be read something

But if I start a new Europe Map 2 game on either side, it works.


What's in the box? C'mon, what's in the boooox?

Would be nice if the new Viper Cockpit is used for all types of the AH-1 ;-) Maybe its not the correct Cockpit but still better as the simple 2D Apache Cockpit.

No one of the New Aircraft has good Targeting System (Like the Ka52 oder RA-66) frown Only DTV or Flir is available (no "FCR" or so) frown

I started a new Europe Map 1 this morning and I played it for 30 min and saved it.

Just went to load it and it crashed too.

So both Europe Maps do not load for me after you save them.

I shot down 2 KA-52 while flying the Viper and 1 Mig while flying the Kiowa.

in the Ka-50 on the Afognak map i hit one of the view modes and the game crashed with a message saying invalid view mode

I presume though all the original helos are flyable and good still? what choppers is the hokum now called? is it the black shark or the ka-50? isnt it a 2 seater? sorry, simple question.

great thank you - sorry, i then saw that - i dont know what i was looking for! i forgot that the Kokum is the two seater.
Overall it looks great!

The trees on the Europe map though have a funny white smokey texture near them though that makes them look like either a fault with the graphic or that the forests on the European island created are infested with with Enormous spiders. - its no big drama either way and all looks great nevertheless!

It has been from the previous version of the trees ,
should be removed, tomorrow will do the correct texture and give a link.
I cant check this ATM, just try this- copy to cohokum\graphics \textures\terrai\europe and overwrite http://www.packupload.com/PIJLRER3AKL

i have put the file in the europe terrain folder like you said and started a campaign there but the trees look worse now - see the image below.

also the the trees seem to be harmless in that the autopilot is follow waypoints and just flying straight through them without any problems at all. One, i would think autopilot knows better and two the trees need to be a little more solid


Also in the Apache Longbow - is it possible to move the cursor between the MFDs? i was looking at the left one up close but the cursor was just stuck in the MFD on the right- i recall on longbow 2 being able to seamlessly move it between them? or did i accidentally somewhere lock the cursor into just the right mfd?

Yes, not only the tree look worse but if you are seeing them on the horizon from a distance, they shine at random. It was like looking at a bunch of random decoration lights on a Christmas tree.
