But the red and green circles don't overlap, causing gun and missle shots to fire way to high above the horizontal flight line!

And I see no way to make them overlap.

This must be fixed...because you have to take very steep dives to hit targets. You can't attack low because of this.  :-/


Most likely the weapon is not properly installed on the t-p aircraft.


That's a very helpful comment Alex. What the hell is a t-p aircraft and who needs a weapon installed there?  :D

OK whatever, as you admit, using the Loader program doesn't even seem to install your utility on your own F...... t-p aircraft (whatever that is) correctly - let alone any of my airplanes.

But as a user of your product I can only install the utility or uninstall the utility in my planes - nothing else. That is precisely what your product should do - am I right or am I right?  :o

I still can't calibrate any plane of my choice since every red circle is above the green circle (amazingly your FA18 Defender model which installs automatically shows the circles overlap). Well - that means your product doesn't work properly on my system for my needs. Am I right or am I right?

So why aren't you guys asking the right questions to get this solved? For me, that is the only thing worth posting! Reading your manuals doesn't solve my problem. Wake up people - I am not the only one posting this problem! Something is bugged in your CSWeapon.xml scripting, causing all this trouble. Even as a program layman I know something is going very wrong when changing a term like unlimited>0< to unlimited>1< in a script causes all ammunition to vanish instead of becoming unlimited, even after resetting it back to unlimited>0< again! And changing the unlimited term once in the file leads to a permanent vanishing of the red calibration circle. Isn't that curious? Why does your FA18 defender modell show a red circle overlapping the green circle on my system - but not in other of my plane installments. The answer must be in the CSWeapons.xml file. FIND OUT WHY...and maybe you will get the problem solved!

Besides that, if I have to take a course studying SDK -techniques to figure our how to use your product...you should have told me before buying it!

I wanted a working product and not another hobby.

This is getting very frustrating.    ...grrrr  >:(

P.S. By the way, moving to many threads around often causes confusion and is a bad forum policy. You force posters to search there posts anew (which is time consuming) and give people the impression that you are hiding unwanted critisism or product information.
