Is IR missile bugged after the new update? (Solved), and my tws can't scan any enemy

After the new update any of my planes that have IR missile can’t lock on targets, that means in both test drive and actual air RB. Because I tried out fly right behind bot less than 1km still couldn’t lock on.

AGMs havent been locking or launching for me either. really dumb

If you mean AAMs I do think the lock ranges might be a bit off but they remain usable for me.

Also i just found out my tws won’t scan on incoming enemy, while it only can detect teammates’ plane fly same direction with me while in front of me and their missiles with same direction. (manually choose target and lock is fine). The game is broken to me right now, I will try to do a repair and see how it go.

update, after I run a repair, the IR missile work normal, but tws still can’t scan any enemy.

Which plane cause tws was working on my 18s

Check your IFF filter settings.

same, they lock and launch just fine but they just completely miss the target

the IFF was fine, and it worked fine before the update.

I tried F-16C, F-15E, SU-30SM. Other than that I don’t know, but could be more planes out there.

this is what they mean

press alt and click it until it appears like the screenshot, it should work then

Sure, but the IFF filters ?

Cant swap radar ranges either.

And here’s a shot from TWS vs TWS head on… something is really missing on TWS :D

First press this key bind at the bottom of the screen (or hold alt and mouse click it):

That will bring up the on screen option for the radar hud (you can then press the key binds or hold alt and press them with your mouse):

The IFF filter is the option bottom left, in the image above it’s set to “all”.

Firends only:

Enemies only:

You also have the regular filters to the right of the radar hud that can filter out plane/heli/missile/size:

I know how to use radar, that TWS is just bugged on certain planes and not showing anything :D
I ment, it is impossible to swap radar distance and scan width on start in menu.
I have to swap it everytime on correct range after spawning.

And you can see both are on same range and IFF is only enemy

Oh, i didn’t check the thread enough, i though you were the OP x)

Then you can bug report it here: Gaijin.net // Issues (just search a bit first so that you don’t report something that is already reported and known about)

np just checked, that IRIAF is working fine to swap radar modes on spawn screen, mut chinese SU30 doesnt give that option at all

Or they are just selling us “faulty” products on 50% discount like normal retailers :D

That does indeed sound more like a bug. You can bug report it here: Gaijin.net // Issues (just search a bit first so that you don’t report something that is already reported and known about)

Seems to be a problem with russian radars (nation doesn’t matter). But I can’t reproduce it completely because on planes I adjust radar in the spawn window in the past, everything works normal.

Scan width (radar search mode) on many russian radars is fix, so not adjustable.

Yeah it is fixed on some soviet radars, but not in all. But still even on those you can adjust range.

Oh well, maybe it will be fixed soon.
