Some 4.33 issues…
-
The main point why using the new key files as a basis is a good idea (or converting the old ones to new standards with the key file editor or manually) is not what has happened between 4.32 and 4.33 but what will happen in the future.
-
100% with Kolbe! … Thiking also about speaking the “same language” for support stuff -> thinking about “newbies” asking for helps

As the Warthog key editor file is incomplete and still a wip e.g simhotaspinky (no formula)
What information is required?Willing to help but I do work shifts so my time is limited, PM me if required.

The Worthog is in so far wip as I do not own one and can’t test it to fully extent.
Can you explain the “simhotaspinky (no formula)” a bit more?
Just checked the file and everything seems to be fine on my end.Please give me a reminder via pm or just post here.

The new keyfiles organisation is a given, but like demo i still use my old OF custom keyfile i updated over time with new callbacks… If you know what you are doing, using old keyfile is not a problem. Just look for the new callbacks and add them and remove the old outdated ones. You may loose the formatting when you do that from the ui so it is not advised.
Bottom line, custom keyfile works very well, just make sure you update them bit by bits. -
First off I payed my respects by thanking.
Once again words r not enough to express the gratitude and admiration.
But let’s get to work…
with vanila 4.33 just the softth dll for the 3 monitors nothing else. No log no key files no theaters no nothing.
64bit crashes before UI loads, all the times, with no crash log files. shows a black window:
First test flight in pit the mouse cursor was not displaying. At some point something was about to show and vanished right away. On second test flight the mouse cursor was there and functioning.
In pit when you look all the way back the icp keyboard is there and functioning just not displaying. if you move the mouse you see the cursor changes I was able to turn off the HUD brightness from there.
changed multisambling from 3 to 2 to see how the FPS goes the mission load got stack on the second pie and never loaded. The disk was working like crazy and after a coffee preparation and some minutes waiting for it bms just vanished without any crash message, nor any crash log.
in keyfile manual:
BMS Keystrokes - Defaults.pdf
says : OTWToggleFrameRate yes none F yes SIM: Display Frame Rate - Toggle Frame Rate
which points that pressing the F key in pit will display my fps… but in the commands listing in the UI the fps command says it’s Alt c f.
Probably same goes for the rest bellow.Now I just seen says some lines bellow:
CommandsSetKeyCombo yes Alt C no SIM: Key Combination Keys (KeyCombo) KeyCombowhich kinda at first tells me it’s a declaration of a keystroke and not a definition of combined keys, that works with other key commands… I got it but a newb I don’t think so.
Just a kind suggestion the line CommandsSetKeyCombo yes Alt C no SIM: Key Combination Keys (KeyCombo) KeyCombo could be in the beginning of the doc so that reader gets the point and maybe repeated in the beginning of every section it has such a use.wow on Kolbe for the effort on redoing and rewriting all those guides. Thanx m8.

deactivate video from config options if you run 64 bits ?

@Red:
deactivate video from config options if you run 64 bits ?
if you mean display intro movie? yes I did try that. no change.
Oh I forgot how amazed I got that even with 14 fps on inclement weather the sim was flawless and stable and super fluid. no hickups like I had 30+ fps… wow RESPECT.
And wow on the Falcon Editor… many many things are there …
-
Damn I must be damned some how… or I need a OS restart…
I just can’t reboot right now as I upload the 4.33 setup file to Mediafire for guys to have an alternative than torrent.
First time the avionics configuration worked fine… I did some test flights and now displays like that:

-
After the reboot the first time Avionics Configurator had the same behavior… after a few minutes an a java update it is running ok now.
Still remains the 64bit exe problem.

So far what I found during testing. (Should I create a new thread for bug or similar issues?)
On Tornado IDS GER under fueselage most of bombs simply do not appear because rack / HP configs. Something does not work well. This is so strange because FF suffered from 100% same issue. The Tornado was imported without fixing this? With old rack.dat in my old MOD I fixed this but in BMS4 Tornado uses new bmsrack.dat. I can try to fix it. (Tornado IDS with '80s camo is one of my favorite jet.)
It is surprise to me that Patriot did not get the same launch method as SA-10.
-
(Why did not get the same launch modeling the Patriot as S-300? They are identical in this area.)
No time to model BLUFOR Sams. On the to-do list.

Patriot has too small bubble about at 14 nm comes into 3D world, eng. zone is limited because of this. Or I have to check again. It engaged me only at 14 nm, I chekced the 2D/3D world be labels but in DB bubble dist value is good.

RGR, in this case I do not work on them.
I saw Tornados got new and unqiue drop tanks accoriding their skinks. Do you plan the same for F-15A/B/C/D and F-15E? I can send skins what VO101_Tom made me.

Is this his exact nickname?
VO101_Tom suggested to apply all of his skin as defult/alternative for BMS4. He made many of good skin to lowres modells besides drop tanks.
J-7, as long as they do not have better 3D models than current.

Su-27 should have this skin. (somebody made just after 4.32 release, not VO101_Tom)

Rgr.
Anothe minor issue. On MiG-29 emergency jettison releases the AAM and only dropt tank remained in centerline HP. So far worked the opposite way. Is this a bug or simply some new features causes this?
