Zipuli Posted November 14, 2012 Author Share Posted November 14, 2012 Zipster!We have 3 guys who need a crash course in how to work your FCS. (Please Bear in mind one/two of them are used to twirly things called dials.) :biggrin: I will give you one right here. In this case FCS is fully on and functioning (normal situation): Target modes (that you need most the time), hotkey PGUP: 1) STATIC target mode: - GPS: green LED off - TIS: lower left corner says KIINTOMAALI - use when target is not moving and you are not moving (lead is not calculated and vehicle movement is not compensated) - aim - lase - fire 2) MOVING target mode: - GPS: green LED on - TIS: lower left corner says LIIKEMAALI - use when you move or target moves (lead is calculated and vehicle and target movement is compensated) - aim - lase - track 2 seconds steadily - fire 3) if AIR target mode is on: - GPS: green LED flickers - TIS: ILMAMAALI - things go strange YELLOW LED = firing prohibited by FCS. Says TULITOIMINTA ESTETTY in TIS. To change 30mm fire mode, use PGDN. Or use the switch in the panel mentioned in the PDF below: - TIS: lower right corner tells it: KERTA LS = single fire, PURSKE = (5 round) burst, SARJA = full auto To change ammo: - APFSDS-T = INS - MP-T = DEL - COAX = M - NOTE: when you change 30mm ammo type, 1st round off is of "wrong" type, like with Bradley. Usually it misses. End of belt kicks in when you have 24 APFSDS-T or 44 MP-T rounds left. Load more ammo or override using the override press button in 3D interior (mentioned in PDF). NOTE: AI gunner always overrides! Other useful hotkeys: Release palm switches: P... will apply battlerange 1000m Change used range: ~... will cycle between battlerange-measured (laser) range(s)-manual range TIS zoom: N Smoke launchers: TAB (1st fires left, second press fires right) HE launchers: G... there are 2 HE grenades that fire to vehicle front ~50m. Read... http://www.steelbeasts.com/sbwiki/index.php/CV_90/30-FI ...for more info. Any questions? NOTE: the PDF is for current PRO version... the PE "prototype" doesn't have all the bells and whistles yet! But in next PE...

Hedgehog Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Thanks Zip, that clears a few things up, now I better get some turret time in Cheers Zipster! 2) MOVING target mode: - GPS: green LED on - TIS: lower left corner says LIIKEMAALI - use when you move or target moves (lead is calculated and vehicle and target movement is compensated) - aim - lase - track 2 seconds steadily - fire I thinks its the track 2 seconds then fire that throws people. Like Crusty, I'll get some turret time between then and now. :biggrin: SARJA = full auto :sonic: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zipuli Posted November 14, 2012 Author Share Posted November 14, 2012 I thinks its the track 2 seconds then fire that throws people. Well, it's the same amount of time most FCSs with dynamic lead take If you want to be fast, use static target and apply lead manually. Up to range 1000m with APFSDS-T it's easy as pie. Easier even, depending on the pie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgehog Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 The CV9030 isn't that bad, Like Zip says much like the CV9040 and Leo2 family. Track, Lase, Fire. (or a combination)Zipster, question... GPS/gunners peri is out, anything other sighting system, the CV9040 has the barrel cam. This wonderful marvel of Finnish tech got anything similar? If so how do we get to it?(It is the CV9035 that is ass backwards.) :biggrin: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer_Leader Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Hi DukeSo I don't miss out on a slot can you please assign me to a Strv 122 in tank platoon B?Tacbat, 12Alfa: I hope you don't mind me joining you?Cheers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirzayev Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 You have the Leo2A4, your plt leader is Eisenschwein, a totally crazy german tank nut, have fun:biggrin:.Just so I get my facts straight...An American with a Russian name will be fighting in a German tank in a Finnish unit alongside Swedes which are all commanded by a Briton. :bigsmile:On another note, I'm having some trouble joining any online games as I am not able to access my router's settings (largely due to the fact that I do not, in fact, own said router). Still, dta delta said that Hamachi would probably work, so thats the route I'll probably have to take. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so how do we get to it?(It is the CV9035 that is ass backwards.) :biggrin:Use barrel camera like this:- in VIS screen (alt+f2) press "video" - "barrel"- for monitor (f2), go to the TA5 Control panel (see PDF) and change monitor image using the +/- buttons (text changes from "lampok" into "tykkik". Then there is the 1:1 unity sight as backup's backup. See PDF on how to open it. Opening this sight prevents the use of laser...And of course the TC has his own sight (f3) in case GPS/TIS/barrelcam are all out... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
