Questions.

Just finished updating to the latest version of BMS. I have not played Falcon in 4 years or so and I am blown away at how far this has developed since I last played. I am hooked once again.
I started a new campaign and to me the map looks to be of a low resolution. It seems like you could have a higher resolution map to use such as this: http://www.candyparty.com/ST/BMS_KOREA_interactive/index.html
Typo irritation. I decided to fly with 13th fighter squadron. When clicking on their AB it says “13rd”. Is there anyway to correct this typo?
Also, I noticed a possible graphics issue with shadows on the HUD left and right “brackets”. It looks like black spray paint. Is this normal for this version of BMS 4.32 with update 7?

Are you talking about shadows?

I’m talking about the areas circled below.

Yes it is shadows. If you turn off Shadow Mapping in configuration it will look more sharp but less dynamic. This shadow feature on is of limited resolution (for performance) so the fuzzy look is normal. Try lots of rolling and looping relative to the sun direction to see the dynamic lighting.
The 113rd is due to the calculated language for ordinal numbers. There is also 111st. The code which examines a number to assign “st, th, rd, nd” suffix is pretty basic with numbers which don’t follow the primary pattern. It’s not a big table but calculated on the fly. Maybe the code can be updated for the next version, I don’t know. It should be enough to just look at the last two digits at least for English suffix (1st vs 11th, 3rd vs 13th).

That almost looks like a RL F-16 picture. How’d do you get your graphics to look that good?
