Photo Recon troubles

Captain Loonee · 07-19-07, 12:35 PM

I have a problem. I travel all the way to Hiroshima to do photorecon and it doesnt give me any options...No matter what I do I can't complete the objectives.

Any ideas?

Am I missing something?

Are you locking the scope on the various ships that are in the port? Then click the camera icon on the tool bar/interface?

Hadn't tried that...wasn't sure I had to do anything, but I guess that explains it. Thanks. I'll give it a shot

Well here is my issue. I'm doing the Photo Recon in the Hua Lien mission in SH4. I am going at 1/3 and am 2 miles from shore yet the camera icon in BOTH periscopes does not light up no matter which periscope I am using. I am able to target ships and buildings but no cameral icon. What am I doing wrong here? Many thanks up front.

I had done a photo mission last night and what i found was that i had to go all the way to the star to take my shots. It appears they want shots of something specific. On my mission i had to cruise through about 30 merchant ships to get to my objective. None of the merchant ship would photo..

I figured it out. Of all the targets docked I had to focus in on the one and lock the view to take the shot. Thanks for the feedback.
