Updated the first post with new version for 4.33.

Thanks a lot for this, Arty, I appreciated your work since you released its previous version.
Just to tell this in clear, I think you deserved some feedback, especially if it’s positive. Nothing more, nothing less, nothing else: well done!Best regards,

Enjoy.
Downloaded and when applying all mods or Only Flares I get this: Failed to apply patch All Arty Particle System Mods / Flare effect Only. – File not found (D:\Games\Flight Sims\Falcon BMS\The Game\Falcon BMS 4.33\user\patches\arty\flare\flarenew.dds). I did as instructed, copied the exe to the install directory right next to Config.exe, launched then got the error when applying… BTW Heat only mod applies fine.

SCU316 it works ok m8. It must be on your end.
please redownload and retry.
If that doesn’t work it might be from an error of file-folder permissions to the folder?
check if the path exists D:\Games\Flight Sims\Falcon BMS\The Game\Falcon BMS 4.33\user\patches\arty\flare\and maybe it’s a path problem?
when u open the exe at the top says Executable:
in there it must say for your case only: D:\Games\Flight Sims\Falcon BMS\The Game\Falcon BMS 4.33\Launcher.exeis this the case?
if not click Browse and point to the path where Launcher.exe is located in your system.
-
I don’t have the arty folder in patches, in fact the patches folder is empty for me.
But the exe tells me exactly the path you said: D:\Games\Flight Sims\Falcon BMS\The Game\Falcon BMS 4.33\Launcher.exe (copy pasted from the exe)
I’ve just tried to redownload and reinstall and getting the same error. Should I have the arty folder by default? -

I don’t have it either lol
ohhh I’m getting old… lol
Actually I have a terrible cold I shouldn’t mess with those things… but I had time at home and thought to update it.thanx SCU316 I must create a new executable rar to include the files… or I messed something creating the patch.
Stay tuned.
-
Ah cheers then mate… so I guess other people were having this error too?
-
Same for me SCU316. I was afraid of posting about it, as i supposed it should be my fault, but i see from Arty’s post that something’s wrong with the exe. Cheers.
-
Yeap guys the exe needed a different approach which I forgot how to do.
Thankfully NSIS has a good wizard and an install package is ready.
First post updated.
Just erase the old one.
Sorry for the trouble.
-
May I ask kindly… did anyone tried this new installer if it works ok with 4.33.1?
-
Damn… you’re right. Just give me a few time ad I’ll let you know right away.
And here I am, with not-so-good news, I’ afraid: here as follows I’m posting the error message I had in return after I tried to apply he modifications.
“Failed to apply patch All Arty Particle System Mods. – File mismatch. C:\Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\data\terrdata\particlesys.ini does not match C:\Users\Giovanni\AppData\Local\Temp\f4p8154.tmp\arty\psoriginal\particlesys.ini.orig or C:\Users\Giovanni\AppData\Local\Temp\f4p8154.tmp\arty\psalleffects\particlesys.ini.new.”
And all the same above occurred when I tried to apply only a part of them.
My system OS is Windows 10 Pro (64 bit).
Any suggestions, mate?With best regards,

hmmm strange…
IIRC it was taking the root dir and made changes to the rest… So it should work…
Are you sure you are on stock Korea?
I mean no changes in the particle system file?As a hack the particlesys.ini.new file if renamed and placed in correct folder will apply the mod.
As a tip try to copy paste the file particlesys.ini.orig
to
C:\Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\Data\Terrdataerase particlesys.ini
rename particlesys.ini.orig to particlesys.ini
Now if you run the patch it should work as advertised…
Remember no refunds after you left the store… :rofl:

I think there is a problem with the current download link. New download of Arty PS Mod from Mediafire. Opened the PS Mod installer.exe file with WinRAR to find a folder named Newfile with weather subfolders leading to a cloud .dds file.
-
Cloud.dds?
Are you sure it’s my mod?
I don’t recall using such a DDS file.
I will look at the installer and update it for 4.33.1.
Jackal did it work for u?

Arty,
my apologies for answering a bit late, a bunch of things of my real life to be done in time before.
Let me tell you that I followed the same process above you’ve pointed out to without previous agreement - I’m going to become a true unknown genius as you and Nikos are within a century or less, huh. :lol: The results when I did the try were: “no way, boy try again another time”.
But I’m going to do all things from scratch again tomorrow, please let me only now if you in case have updated the file with a new version of it, as I seem to understand you did.Remember no refunds after you left the store… :rofl:
Sure? I know who you are and where you’re living in, so if that goes wrong expect soon a ‘friendly’ visit by mine with a pair or so of many appreciated presents I’m famous for - ask Nikos about if you don’t trust me :lol: :lol: :lol:
-
:lol:
No m8 I didn’t update the file. Me also, real life is holding me back.

Thanks for the very quick reply, mate.
Well, I’m going to try again from scratch as promised and I’ll let you know further - ah, I was to forget to tell you that I was in KTO when I made my first attempt, of course.Have a bandit day and sleep a bit in trouble, bud :lol:
-
Arty,
I’m back (just as Schwarzenegger, but on my side for my second time only, huh :lol: ).
My apologies as first for having taken a little too much time, but I had several tasks in my RL to be done before. Sorry the same for having made you waiting for me, mate!
Then, please don’t take your breath too long: your utility works fine also with 4.33.1, as you would sure now at this time.
I succeded. The trick with that ‘particlesys.ini.orig’ file you’ve suggested to apply saved the day effectively, and after having done that all went out like a charm.
Glad, in case, for having helped you a little, one matter less to be worried for. Right?Take care, with my best compliments and regards,
