ETO: Bombs not exploding

[vonOben]

Hi

I'm flying the Bf 109G-6 in 1943, but when I drop the bombs they don't explode.
I've tried to drop all selectable bomb types, and they are dropped but none of them explodes.

<Loadouts>
<Loadout Name="Clean"/>
<Loadout Name="(1)250kg Stabo Bomb">
<Hardpoint ID="0" PylonType="pylon_109_3" PayloadType="AvHistory_gr_bomb_sd_250_stabo" Quantity="1"/>
</Loadout>
<Loadout Name="(1)250kg Bomb" MissionType="Strike,Anti_Ship">
<Hardpoint ID="0" PylonType="pylon_109_3" PayloadType="AvHistory_gr_bomb_sc_250" Quantity="1"/>
</Loadout>
<Loadout Name="(1)70kg Stabo Bomb">
<Hardpoint ID="0" PylonType="pylon_109_3" PayloadType="AvHistory_gr_bomb_sd__70_stabo" Quantity="1"/>
</Loadout>
<Loadout Name="(1)70kg Bomb">
<Hardpoint ID="0" PylonType="pylon_109_3" PayloadType="AvHistory_gr_bomb_sc__70" Quantity="1"/>
</Loadout>
<Loadout Name="(4)50kg Bombs" MissionType="Search_Destroy,CAS">
<Hardpoint ID="0" PylonType="pylon_109_0" PayloadType="AvHistory_gr_bomb_sc__50" Quantity="15"/>
</Loadout>

Any ideas what might be wrong?

Cheers :salute:

Do you get this only with the Bf109g, or also with other aircraft?

If you get it with all droppable stores, then have you changed the 'release' button on your setup? There's a bug in there somewhere, which means you need to edit the new hardware setup by hand.

You need to open the active xca file in your application data entry, and look for/add the following lines to your joystick entry, assuming you have your weapons select and weapons release assigned to the joystick (or throttle if RAF) -

<Button ID="20" Action="SelectNextWeapon"/>
<Button ID="22" Action="ReleaseFireWeapon"/>

Obviously, buttons 20 and 22 refer to my setup - you will need to determine which buttons you are using, and their numbers.

Hope this helps!

Yes, that was it!

It works fine now!

Thanks for your help!
