Recently I purchased Iron Warriors: T-72 Tank
Command and have been enjoying the challenge of the sim very much.
I've found out the very hardest way that I'm glad I'm not a TC in real
life!
Anyway, here is the problem: I've been working my way through the
campaign and have finally been given command of a T-72. The mission
("River" I think the name is) opens, I switch to the gunner's position
and I have no primary sight! I've got all six of the secondary, manual
reticles (3 thermal and 3 normal), but not the regular sight. Also
not present is the laser range finder. And, because the manual
reticles are zoomed to max magnification they are almost useless. Now
in the firing range training the sight is there and also in the single
mission "meeting engagement", but not in the campaign.
Needless to say I am a bit vexed by this. I do know also that the next
two missions in the single player campaign are also sans sight/range
finder.
I've already downloded the patch and that didn't help (of course I'm not even sure that the patch did much of anything. In the sim it says I'm running version 1.3. The installer for the patch does not specify the path to install to so I just installed it to the "Iron Warriors" folder.) Also have been tweaking the settings both in the game and in the config editor with no joy.
Can someone please tell me what I can do to fix this problem? I'm really enjoying the sim and I'd like to continue working on it but with the sight problems it makes it practically impossible to operate with any kind of hope at a favorable outcome.
Thanks!!
