My guns are jammed :)
« on: October 14, 2000, 10:15:00 AM »
Logged on today (got the auto update) and my guns won't fire (neither primary or secondary). I use the F22 pro (with digital chips) and here is my macro if anyone would be so kind as to help.

PORTB1 IS TG1

And under key mapping I have set "fire secondary weapon" to  n

thx in adv

I'm using the same setup you are (F22 with digital chips).

I have sometimes had my guns stop working even though I still had ammo.  I've only had the happen in multi-position vehicles (tanks, AA and bombers).  Grabbing a new ride has always fixed it.

It still sucks to die while sitting in the turret pointing the gun/s right at the guy but unable to shoot.

I haven't had this happen in a few weeks though.

Just after I downloaded the new version (1.045) I went into Offline as I always do and tried the new features.
I noticed that I couldn't fire my guns, my hat switch not working and basicly half the rest of my buttons doing nothing like I programed them to. (Logitech Wingman Force)
I took a look at the key setup and noticed that my "jump to gun position 1-4" suddenly was now set to "None" and my "Stick Set 1-4" ditto.
I remapped my keys (although any Alt, Shift or Ctrl key was now disabled for just these commands) and now my stick worked normally again.

Do the keyboard fire commands still work though?

Nope, my keyboard fire commands don't work either.....off or on-line. Really confused.  

Everything else works except my fire commands.

Trigger on stick works fine as well - nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn nnnnn  see

I had this happen again last night.  Damage can't be displayed once it happens.  The funny thing is that I got it so that I could fire the coaxial mg on my panzer from the driver's seat, but when I went to the turret the coaxial mg would start firing and I couldn't fire my 75mm.

After so many years doing this, I should have known better.

I promise from now on I will always try re-booting system before asking any more questions  


problem solved.

Keeping an updated copy of your settings folder in a safe place is a good habit to get into also
