If you have Big Sur you have intel inside your Mac?
You would have a better experience with FPS if you use Bootcamp to partition the drive, install Windows 10 (buy it OEM), and then install BMS. Boot from Windows.
I tested this 10 years ago so this is old knowledge. My understanding is that emulation or running windows in an emulator app off of a windows partition is still slower than booting into Windows.
If you know all this already, my apologies. Have fun with Wine!

RE: Briefing.txt file messed up on non windows pc
No issues here. I can open it in Quick Look in the Finder, Text Edit, Pages, Libre Office, and the free version of BBedit. I am running MacOS 10.14. Try downloading BBedit (Free version is great). If you are running an older system try TextWrangler, free also.

RE: UI text is very hard to read
Depending on your monitor: Settings > Display > Text Scaling could help.

RE: Is it the new TGP?
This happened to me in a TE, 2 x KF16-C-32s (ROK) against 2 x MiG-29As, while changing Radar azimuth. Only happened once. I believe I switched from MRM Override Mode to A-G Master Mode and back to get my scope back.

RE: Ministick on X-56 use?
When the X-56 came out, Logitech bought Saitek who is the original designer/manufacturer. Look in the Saitek forum, you may find help there. Snelle (and others), I believe, created a BMS DX profile, fix for the mini-stick, and advice on the slider for the X-56. I must stand and salute Snelle for helping a grunt with his X-55 out of HOTAS hell.
There is a lot of people to salute around here, isn’t there? Good Luck.

RE: Electronic Flight Bag
Another is adding 2 simple pages to an open PDF is nothing like a sim software and by no means should bring a powerful PC to its knees including extensive cleaning.
I am not implying anything but sharing my own experience with something that never took place with s rather stable computer.One possibility is that you did nothing that caused the issue nor did the PDF authors. PDFs are not simple as there are different versions from different years, there are different flavors, there are different properties that can be included or not, Adobe PDFs are not exactly the same as Microsoft PDFs are not exactly the same as Apple PDFs are not exactly the same as specialized PDF software documents (like PDF Architect).
Editing a PDF (or any complex document) that becomes corrupted and crashes the editing app could mess with your computer. Just my experience. Luckily this is rare, but it has happened to me and others as well. What a pain.
Try different editing software. The best option is to obtain the document in its original format and edit that. Both strategies have worked for me.

RE: [Release] Tyrant's Virtual Mission Tools (VMT)
VMT v058 (stable) would not load a Campaign or TE after the first time it failed. Up to that event, VMT was loading without issues. Hope this helps.

RE: [Release] Tyrant's Virtual Mission Tools (VMT)
Success! VMT-win32-x64-v058-22-g5d2168c-debug opened up 3 Tiger Spirit Campaigns and 2 Tactical Engagements. VMT v058 could not. I will let you know if anything changes after about a week of challenging this version. Thanks.

RE: [Release] Tyrant's Virtual Mission Tools (VMT)
Only used VMT, in this instance, to display Airbases and their squadrons on the map without weather, then save the map for retrieval later. I did this for 3 different Tiger Spirit campaigns. Later, I wanted to see if I could adjust the display of one squadron and tried to open the campaigns and got the errors above. Then I saved a brand new Tiger Spirit campaign and tried again. No joy. Then deleted and unzipped a new VMT, again no joy.
Hope this helps.

RE: [Release] Tyrant's Virtual Mission Tools (VMT)
Hi Tyrant, thanks for VMT. I haven’t been able to open any campaign files since the Microsoft update (previous to the latest update which I have refused for now).Could be coincidence.:)
