    @Foxtrot701 We also use U14 when we have a live GCI. Someone in the F16 flight could monitor U6 for the package and send info to you. Or you could switch back and forth if you need declare or bogey dope calls.

    The server has the option to require unaltered data files to prevent clients from giving themselves super powers, see g_bRequireSameAcdataMP. The files checked are: .dat files in Data\Sim\ .xml files in Data\TerrData\Objects The server checks the hash of the clients and will not allow connection if there’s a mismatch. As it’s a hash check, even an added space will cause failure. To help finding the culprit, a tool was added to u3. In <BMS folder>\Tools\BMS Hash Checker\ you’ll find it. The server can create a checksum file, which clients can use to find the file that is causing the issue [image: image.png]

    @drtbkj Maybe easier instructions (for some) … this will place the “Falcon BMS.exe.dmp” files in your %Temp% folder) :: Run the following lines from an elevated (admin) CMD.exe prompt reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps\Falcon BMS.exe" /f reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps\Falcon BMS.exe" /v DumpType /t REG_DWORD /d 2 /f reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps\Falcon BMS.exe" /v DumpFolder /t REG_EXPAND_SZ /d "%%Temp%%" /f reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps\Falcon BMS.exe" /v DumpCount /t REG_DWORD /d 3 /f

    Aicraft is in NAV mode with FCR in GM. After setting FCR to STBY (NO RAD), A/G CCIP attack mode is entered and FCR correctly changes to AGR. However “NO RAD” is still visible on HUD and HMD and the FCR is shown to be slant range source. If FCR AGR mode is entered (exiting STBY) then the “NO RAD” indication should disappear. link text

    In CCIP delay when entering post designation the FCR slant range changes drastically even if the pipper (computed point of impact) does not move. The FCR AGR slant range measured in pre and post designation should be the same because the FCR antenna should pointed to the same direction (point). link text p.s. The antenna position and slant range are kept the same only when FPM and waterline are on the horizon.

    @oakdesign I have a simlar issue in VR, but the other way round: I have too much FPS. Instead of stable 72 I get up to ~80 FPS. I would expect to have issues with lower FPS. And this is only in Balkan and it seems only in campaign. I can not reproduce this in KTO. My headset is a Pico 4 Ultra using VDXR (connected via USB to PC ethernet; PC runs a small DHCP client; bandwidth is 1200 MBps). GPU is a RTX 4080 Ultra CPU is a Ryzen z 7700X RAM is 64 GB

    @Dukera in order for Link 16 to work there needs to be a l16.txt file with the same name as you TE file itself in your campaign folder. For TE that might gae been transfered from a pre L16 BMS version or have been modified in Misson commander and saved with a new name, the procedure of creating a working yourTESaveName.l16.txtpb file gas to ve performed as described in my previous answer

    Perhaps I have found the solution to the puzzle. When I am preparing to fly my aircraft in 2D, I load the data in the link16 page of the DTC via L16 plan. Before I press this button, the link16 data from the last flight are in the DTC. If as in the case described I change as a member to another flight, I would like to have the flight plan data of this flight on the DTC. I stay in my aircraft, select the other flight in the missions display without to click an AC and press save in the DTC. I then have the flight plan from the other flight in my DTC and my STN is displayed. Perhaps something is running differently in the background, so that other STNs are loaded into the DTC? I have just tested again: 2D DTC called up, pressed CLEAR, there were no STNs in the DTC display. In the aircraft I opened the Flight data page in the MPCD, there was no data of the buddies in it, as in the 2D DTC. In the OWN DATA page, however, there was the STN intended for me, although 00000 was saved in the DTC.

    This might be me misunderstanding what the command does but I didn’t find clarification on the comms manual and it has pretty odd behavior anyways. If you order your wingman, element or flight to chainsaw via keybind they will stop using missiles and go guns only for the rest of the 3D session no matter what command I issue after. If I use “Go grinder” from the element context menu instead they will perform the tactic and behave normally. My guess is the “chainsaw” command from keybind does something completely different(command to use guns only?) but since the dialogue on both commands say “(package) go chainsaw” I assumed maybe that was the way to keybind the grinder command. This is very easy to replicate and I can provide acmi as well if needed.

    @airtex2019 to add a note how BMS behaves on Linux. As said there’s I’ve never experienced any difference in perf between fullscreen and borderless. The gamma too high in VR problem is somehow related to MSAA, with x1 colors are ok, but x2 and higher colors are shifted to white.More details in my report on dxvk github: https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/issues/4786
