You mean the vehicles aren't able to shoot like they're supposed to? Never heard of that happening before. Which vehicles?

I mean like when you use a cheats to spawn a vehicle and none of them (exept for the swoop) fire! for example x-wing , tie -fighter, tie-bomber, atst none fire and i know the atst does!!! :confused:

The SP vehicles act differently than the MP vehicles. My guess is that they just don't have weapons.

They do fire. But IIRC, the starships don't fire until you "take off" in them.

It's been a long time since I've messed with vehicles in SP, so this might be wrong, but in MP for example you hold "jump" to "take off" in a ship. Once you "lift off" you can continue to hold jump to "boost" or you can release jump and just hold "forward" to fly normally after lifting off.

Once you're flying you should be able to fire with the primary and secondary fire buttons like normaly. Hitting "use item" (NOT "use".. this will cause you to eject and likely crash and die if you're in a ship) will switch firing modes for your primary weapon. For example the X-Wing can fire each of the four "barrels" individually or it can fire them all at once. Hit the use item button to toggle back and forth. Your lasers recharge, but your missiles do not.

Again, this is MP info, so some of it could be different from SP.

But trust me, they DO fire, so if they don't, check your keys, something must be wrong on your end.
