it did not work!

Hello friends.  I posted a question few weeks ago,  explaining that planing a mission, the enemy planes (of any kind i.e. fighters or bombers) do not drop their bombs on the air strip or island where players plane is.  
I did receive all sorts of replies.  None did work.  So finally I uninstall and install the program without any addon plane,  and try again.  It did not work again.
Now I will present my parameters you check mybe I am doing something wrong;

Operating syst.  XP.
Planes approaching the airstrip from 1000 ft or less with 200-400 knots speed.
Mission kind = Strike.
Planes do have bombs of light or other kinds.
Point of desired bombing is turned to red triangle.
Thanks,
Vilik

Is there anything wrong with this?

Do the planes when flown by the player drop bombs? i have a few planes that will not drop bombs whatever i do to the .dp or .air files...

Also are you having them attack the base itself or structures near the base. I sometime place a tree or smoke marker next to or in the case of the marker on the base so the bombers can use their bombs stratically and not tactically (I.E. the drop in the middle of a area that has buildings on four corners rather than attack each house) or so the bombs will hit aircraft on take off not the center of the runway...  ;)

Sorry to hear Vilik. Is the waypoint classed as "Attack w/ bombs" or "Attack w/ all weapons". A/W bombs is what is needed.


If that ain't the problem I'm sorry but I can't help you :(

Vilik Thats way to fast for you designated attack planes to drop thier Bombs accurately. Please slow them down before making them attack their target.

Another thing follow their progress through the mission. CFS2 is some times to detail depended, If the AAA is to intensive the Bomber will over pass their tarket only to make another run at the it at a another angel and drop their bombs.

Be patient and do not stop trying. This Mission Builder is just some times to sophisticated. The some thing happen to me with torpedos attacks.

Please read Coyotes Mission Tutorial and keep trying.
