Falcon 4.0 installed properly?
-
I think I managed to install Falcon 4.0, but the game doesn’t launch. is that acceptable? I want to make sure I’ve completed this step before I install BMS 4.33
-
Yes, as far as I know it just needs to be installed. Doesn’t have to run.
Good luck!

The BMS 4.33 installer needs to detect Falcon 4 installed on your disk. You will also have to keep it along with BMS even though the two installs don’t interact in any other way. You can have the smallest install offered by the original F4 CD installer, around 160 MB.

It just needs to be there. I wouldn’t expect an unpatched 1.0 version of Falcon 4.0 to be running on a 64-bit Windows 7/8/10 really. We’re talking 1998 software here.
(For my Falcon 4.0 wasn’t even usable until at least 1.07 came out….) -

(For my Falcon 4.0 wasn’t even usable until at least 1.07 came out….)106 was OK , 107 was never released, from memory. ( memory leak )
108 was Good

That could be true. I’m probably confusing it with 1.08us - 1.07 was a AF patch.
I do remember that until 1.08us, F4 would regularly crash on me.
-
I can launch F4+1.08US under Win7-64 no probs. Not that I would spend any time flying it…

A handy guide for your install process. Good luck!
