TC .50 problem.

Well,

It started when I downloaded version 1.226, I can only move the machinegun in a left to right way, I can't however move it up and down. What's the prob?.

You now have to repeatedly press the up and down arrow keys on your keyboard to make it move (Like when you are in manual mode). This was changed to simulate the difficulty of using the hand cranks on the real M2 .50 .

...

As Scud said.. up/down arrow keys, but I have found that it's much faster (and accurate) to let the "AI TC" take the 50cal. shots, while I use the gunner position and at the same time coax them too, or scan for other hard threats with main gun..

Oh, if I have a Heat round in the tube, I then unload it on the troops as well.. but only if in tube at time.

Ya, but firing the duce and a half is so much fun :mrgreen:

hey, I use my mouse to move the M2, up, down, left and right, that works!! (even if i never use it, I prefer COAX and Heats)

[NEpi]

yeah, scud! empty the box of rounds, and then switch to gunner, to have the AI TC crawl out and reload

You gotta use the up and down arrow key.

nothing beats the 12.7x108 AA HMG on the T80/90. it holds 300 ready rounds too.

Nah, the Ma-Deuce is wonderful to fire... I always say that you can hardly breath while firing - the over-pressure while firing is crazy!

[Eliminator]

by me works wonderfull with the mouse too! but I let the AI TC firing with the .50 cal the HEATs rounds and the coax are so much funny to use !

[JayMan]

I think that being able to move the "Ma-Deuce " up and down with the mouse has to do with the "reality settings".

i did wonder why the T80 in SB carried only 500 shells for the 12.7mm. its suppose to be 300, with some ammo bokes on the side of the turret. up to 1500 shells in total.
