Large Size Theaters
-
you can do it, but not to fly it
I think Monster is able to make a module, able to count BMS 4.32 terrain filesā¦. I would appriciate it, but dont want to be the most demanding and sticky userā¦

ā¦.
So whatās the point of doing it if it canāt be used? We seem to have a hard enough time getting 64 seg theaters completed - why waste time on something 16 times the size for it not to be useable? :baffled:

Monster did program fixex or features in one day (if asked). He told me, he knows how are additional terrain files composited. Soā¦

Who knows what is waste of time and what is not.

Lukas,
do you have by any chance a backup copy of an OF 4.x install?
ā¦ which IIRC includes a folder called āBaZT SRTM koreaā,
copy that folder to your desktop or elsewhere and run the .exe.Maybe you can get something usefull out of it.
ā¦ maybe itās just waste of time.ā¦ who knows.
Cheers,

Do you mean, OF 4.x does use ābil, hdr, nrm, sbi and tidā terrain files?

No, and I didnāt say that.
Itās been a few years since I stumpled across it, and I had just a short look at it.
ā¦ needs a more advanced āgeo- guyā, ā¦ which Iām not.Cheers,

Are you completely stupid, or do you just pretend?
The stock BMS4.32 install doesnāt handle 256 segment theaters, so, in plain simple terms, THEY DONāT WORK! Is that really so hard to get through to you? Why **** around creating something that doesnāt work?!

?!
Personal attacks will not be tolerated, tread lightly please.

I think - It will work, if ābil, hdr, nrm, sbi and tidā files present. These files could be produced externaly. Most people think, creation of 256 seg. theater takes decades (i dont think). The creation of module, producing mentioned files takes hours or days - for such a master as Monster.

128\256 Seg theaters are possible in BMS 4.32, but only as theories. You can build them and fly themā¦BUTā¦the code does not support them when it comes to the ancillary data necessary to complete them. I.E. the Art and Terrain files and others.
Soā¦OPā¦NO not ATM!
We have been pointed to EMF\POH 128 Seg theaters as āworkingā examplesā¦they do to a certain extent, but you will be unable to do certain things in-game.
Such as display Threat Circles,ATM producing correct Flight plansā¦etcā¦
Maybe next timeā¦
Sorry,
demer
(BTW, producing\rendering tiles beyond the 4096 threshold is doable as long as they are repeating to some extent) -
ā¦ no ATM planned en-route Air Refuel. A/Cās max combat radius limited => no mission generated by ATM. (Hopefully, maybe on day.)
But IMO, TE (human planned mission) remains possible.
-
I dont want to be repetitive too much, butā¦.
128 are playable ( frankly the only theater I fly is my EU 128 WIP in TE, no time and interrest in campaign ATM, basic art-files OK, no problems with terrain filesā¦just these diagonals grrrr, but it has nothing with functionality)256 are not playable without external ābil, hdr, nrm, sbi and tidā computation (there is no program for it ATM). BMS crashes on start, when trying to compute them. That is why, I dont knowā¦if there is problem with art-files. AF was able to handle 256 seg. art files.
I dont want to make any hype around itā¦but I am interested in air combat (95% time, 3% naval), I like harpoon style TEsā¦so I dont like map edges.
If there would be a tool for 256 seg, I will be happy to move from 128 to 256 (the last time, I had a time to finish campaign as player was over 20 years ago in 3.05ā¦)BTW I am freelance architect in RL, making projects, moving on 5 construction sites simultaneously (some of them even public buildings), I am councilor in spare time etc. etcā¦.but ok, I am retarded in western standards, becouse I am Chech and we Chechs are living in Chechnya as you knowā¦
-
BTW to mentioned Air Refuel issue - There is Avro Vulcan model by ccc, even Victorā¦ā¦my motivation to make 256 seg was also because of long ride bombing in Falkland styleā¦I wanted to make flight from Greenland to Russia, using many tankers (spawned manualy).
Everyone have its own playstyle and interest hereā¦for me it is cool tu spend afternoon modeling SAM sites around Moscow, just to be downed in my U2ā¦or capture pack of cruise missiles over Kola in my multitarget capable MiG31ā¦ or fight in Donbass in my fake Ka-29 -
hello guys,
iām very interesting of any post but i worked in job of specialist of pc
for the problem went of parallax of hardware, just problem of synchronisation of graphic card and bus of processeur
perhaps direct x of MS
if you add tiles of 256, you must gone on this way but your solution to mix out format of files on new database itās perhaps possible but the right way is upper for me
if you have any question of that just send me message
tks

ā¦ external ābil, hdr, nrm, sbi and tidā computation (there is no program for it ATM)
I see you have not tried my suggestion, yet.:D

hi,
i reply at your post
and i see on description of your hardware, you have a graphic card with 1,5 GO memory on board but i think just right itās 3 GO because for the test
because your tiles is so large and your nvram donāt accept data online and you do over blast your graphic card and shoot down os
best regard

LSI was able to find OF4.5 install package. There are āBaZT - SRTM Korea.ofaā and āBaZT - SRTM Korea 1.10.ofaā files inside zip. I dont want to install whole OF, but I can not unpack these files.
I searched my old harddrives and directories. I have found these files : BaZT_-Korea_v1.0_Installer.zip, BaZT-Korea_v1.1_Installer.zip, BaZT-_Korea_Beta_2_Installer.zip and L2 Elevator v1.2 Installer.exe.
I can run the exe. Does this program generate ābil, hdr, nrm, sbi and tidā files? I guess it will install SRTM Korea. I hope it will not overwrite default Korea in BMS 4.32 folderā¦
-
I guess it will install SRTM Korea.
Edit:
Not if there is no Falcon installed at all. (means a clean registry)
end editIt might be able to create what you want, but donāt ask me how or what,
ā¦ it has been years ago when I had a short look at it.I donāt know if the . zip files youāve listed are working differently to what I mean.
But Iām sure it has worked with the folder extracted from OF4.7
(whereat the folder should be identically to OF4.5 AFAIK)Cheers,
LS
