4.37 Update 1 "messed up"/broke Rampage missile and "autojammer"
-
@Mav-jp
That’s strange. What would be the purpose of the CMDS AUTO setting versus for example SEMI, then?
I always thought that AUTO had exactly the purpose of automatically turning the jammer on (together with releasing chaff and flares automatically) whenever needed while with SEMI the ‘consent’ must be given?Note that I’m not doubting what you’re saying. Just wish to know what’s the diference between SEMI and AUTON then?
Anyway, the main purpose of this thread was to alert about the Rampage missile. Something clearly when wrong with it with the latest update. BTW, can someone else confirm this?

@ricnunes CMDS dose not control ECM, the CMS switch dose.
In SEMI mode ,manual dispensing is based on RWR threat sensing.
In AUTO mode automatic is dispensing based on RWR threat sensing.
CMS AFT will turn on the ECM, dispense only one program for each pilot consent., or enable automatic dispensing.
CMS right will turn off the ECM and disable AUTO. -
@Leech
Thanks for the reply and explanation!I though that dispensing (either in SEMI or AUTO) was based on the dispensing program selected (1 to 4) and not on RWR threat sensing?

Yep that’s not implemented yet , for now it uses the selected man program

I must admit that I’m really confused right now since that’s how it’s already implemented in BMS 4.37.0 (without update 1) when commanding countermeasure dispense (CMS forward) it will dispense the amount of Chaff or Flares specified in selected program (1, 2, 3 or 4).

I think you didn’t understand
In real the semi or auto is able to select a proper sequence based on rwr threat analysis and rwr library
In BMs ts using only a preprogrammed manual programs independently of the threat
-
Yes, you’re right. I really wasn’t understanding but now I get it.
Thanks for the reply and explanation

@janjan did the missile work in 4.37.0?
-
One thing you can test, open your
Falcon BMS.cfg
and look for a pririoty fix line. Change:set g_sPriorityFixes "all"
to:
set g_sPriorityFixes "all-AHR_GUIDANCE"
Does it change the rampage behavior?
-
C:\Falcon BMS 4.37\Data\Add-On Israel\Sim\Misdata\rampage.dat
setTime To Go Active
to -1.00.# Time To Go Active (sec) -1.00
Seifer’s solution will also work, it disables AHR guidance, which was triggered by the above value not being -1.00
-
Please test Tumbler solution.

@Seifer
Just tested it. It flew well but missed all the targets by 20-50m -
Is there any news or update about this Rampage missile issue with 4.37.1?
-
@ricnunes do they miss for you as well?
-
@janjan,
Yes, they completely miss the target (and always).
Actually if you notice, it was me who created this thread and reported the issue (initially). -
@ricnunes did you set “Time To Go Active to -1.00” ?
Before I did that teh Rampage flew as you described and missed completely.
After I set it, the did not fly so high and did get very close to the target but still missed by, I assume 50-100m.
Is this what you experience as well? -
@janjan
Actually I haven’t tried that fix/setting and the reason is simple: I want to keep playing with 4.37.0 instead of updating it to 4.37.1, this in great part because of this Rampage issue (I enjoy playing in the Israel theater).But if you (or anyone else) teach me out to be able to revert from 4.37.1 to 4.37.10 without uninstalling BMS completely and installing it again then I would definitely try that “Time To Go Active to -1.00” setting.
-
@janjan tested what? Tumbler or my solution?
-
@Seifer Setting TimeToActive to -1
