Is Bombsite Calibration Disabled in Training Arena?
« on: July 12, 2004, 05:28:10 PM »
I have the green cross on the ground enabled, get up to altitude, level, go to F6 view, see the green cross right at the cross hairs of the sight, hit "u" to calibrate, try to move the joystick to keep the cross hairs centered on some ground object, and nothing happens, the cross hairs remain fixed on the green cross.

in the training arena the "realistic" bombsight has always been disabled.

in the arena settings there is an option to "enable lead computing gunsight" along with the divebomb sight, and to "enable easy bombing" or something like that...

IIRC this was set this way in the TA back when the new bombsight was first enabled.
I don't know what to put here yet.

JB,

I found it, enabled it in preferences, but dont see anything.  I figured it would then give me a selection in preferences>flight, but its not there.

Is there some "dot" command I have to use to get the lead computing site to appear?

TIA

Hitech,

Just went and checked both dive bomb site and lead computing site and even "saved" them.

Neither shows up on flight with a P-51 or F6.

Any suggestions?

TIA
