OK, So ive read all the thread.
My datalink scanner will not work when aimed at a tower in turret mode and binding is set on secondary fire, in my case an X52 with button C configured by default.
So I get into the base and im parked up targetted on the transmitter (like you do on a ship in space) its got a white target marker on it and I hit and hold Button C for the time it takes to make my sunday dinner and i get squat, nothing, the datalink isnt working.
Ive gone into options and checked the weapon settings, remapped the secondary fire button to Fire C on my X52, Ive switched fire weapons deploys to both on and off and APPLY to both and same results.
Think that just about covers all the advice in this thread so far. So Im sat here on a planet surface in a scarab aiming at a point that does nothing, and the point of the data scanner is?
Yep you guessed it, bald again from frustration and pulling my hair out. Ive watched youtube videos with some guy mumbling and waffling away to himself, look how good I am. Ive read the manuals, Ive looked at 6 sites so far. for how to do this supposed quick mission thats so far taken just about 2 hours of trying to figure out what the hell makes this thing work, Ive even tried having it on a fire group of its own. still does nothing.
Ok, what I would like please is a clearly laid out set of instructions how to set this thing up and how to configure all this so that it works.
Yep I really do need hand holding through this and no english bad and please.
