Another thing to make sure is that you are using the 2nd trigger detent keystroke.

By the way, could you fire the gun successfully in AG mode? Are you just having problem in AA mode?

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking it would be cool to have NK hovercraft flank the DMZ and drop off some tanks and infantry:

This would be done for theme only, although the lack of control of naval units and the inability to program custom triggers (e.g. to spawn a regiment of tanks behind the ROK defenders) makes it mere wishful thinking.

Take a look into Falcon BMS 4.32/User/Joystick/Generic/Kolbe/CH Fighterstick & Pro Throttle

There’s a document on how to program the stick and throttle.

Also in Falcon BMS 4.32/User/Joystick/Generic/Kolbe there’s an Excel document called BMS-DX-Generator1_6.xls

If it works for CH Stick and Throttle like it does for the X52, using this spreadsheet is pretty easy.

If you don’t know all those functions yet you can just use the assignments already made within the spreadsheet. All you have to do in this case would be to enter the device numbers, select your input device in the output column and then copy and paste the assignments into the keyfile you choose to use. Once you got the hang of it, it’s s so easy you feel like cheating:)

I had found that link but was wondering if there was any other mods.

I check my debriefing, that usually but not always is reliable.

( Allthough yesterday I stole two F-4s, one F-18 and a Tanker from my buddy. )

JSOW/JASSM will guide perfectly well through weather in BMS. I think even Mavericks will.

:uham: I was going to snap it right up

Thanks for the reply.

While doing a Ramp Start use the TEST PANEL (Left Console at back - by your elbow - pg 14 BMS DASH-1) and press the MAL & IND LTS button. It’ll go through ALL the voice messages that betty uses. My monies on you mystery word being ‘CAUTION’ - is it usually accompanied but the Master Caution light on the left eyebrow lighting up?

Also a good reference:

I loved what was in very old FF. In case of many bombs AI outside of your flight released all bombs in a single pass. In your flight AI followed your settings. I hope BMS4.33 will get similar settings.

I have not seen any missiles like SCUD/Lo Dong/ and other short range Ground to ground missiles fired/launched in campaigns.

Is this hard to model in BMS? I was just fantasizing how cool it would be if I saw surface to surface missiles launched or hitting cities/airbases. Even better, if we saw Patriots intercepting those missiles….

Wouldn’t that be cool? Or would it be too much of eyecandies/FPS destroyer? Maybe it’s too hard to code?

GMT eh. Lemme guess when you reject the target it goes back to GM. The change of radar mode resets the cursors to the steerpoint position. This resetting of the FCR mode and the associated reset of the cursors is one of the annoyances of BMS.

AI is dumb enough following

I don’t want to sound daft but the first thing to do if FLY THE PLANE. Use the stick and rudders to get control, spin recovery is centre controls, throttle back, opposite rudder, as a/c stops spinning keep the nose below the horizon to gain speed. Once recovered and in a positive attitude (nose above horizon and speed either climbing or at the least not falling) then you can look at whether you can manage to trim the a/c to fly better. Don’t forget to dump and ordinance you may have AFTER the spin recovery. Fly the jet using gentle inputs and a moderate speed and find an airfield asap. Don’t forget you rudder as it can be a useful control when others are compromised.

The main thing to remember throughout this entire thing though is what is you minimum safe ejection altitude and make sure you are out of the a/c before it goes through this.

agreed 🙂

I’m trying to convince my wife we need to have 3 monitors but I fail badly when I start mentioning “situation awareness will be greatly enhanced”……I kind of ramble on a bit then she starts talking about the weather.

On the campaign loading there should be a load tab with a list of all your saved games. If you didn’t save then it’s lost. There are automatic saves that may or may not happen depending on settings.
