I get the : wrong acdata files message. I have some different models (the Phantom package i edited) and .dat files installed but i never had in 4.32 this error. I only can join if i have Vanilla install?
-
That’s exactly why there are data checks now,

At this time, we’re enforcing a minimum bandwidth of 500 from all players, but we may go as high as 1000 depending on how this next week goes, and the reports from pilots. Server has it’s bandwidth set around 25000 and this is a fraction of its actual upload speeds with packets from 6-9MB. Here’s hoping this fixes the dropped textures and missing airbases. Please feel free to report issues at our website (or here) and we will try to address them as quickly as possible.

Hi i joined today for some testing and had some mysterious AWACS radar calls which only my AI wingman could see and attack? No Migs anywhere close to me after checking ACMI…
Also some strange F-16’s models with chocks floating underneath while flying.
I have checked my ports are forwarded correctly but after checking the manual i think it may have something to do with the bandwidth number selection? I had it at 300 as suggested by the server but the new manual is suggesting minimum 500?
Any thoughts?We’ve changed the default bandwidth requirement to 500 and we may go as high as 1000 - for now, players will need to set at least 500 to join the server. The AWACS problem is a big one, and we are trying to get to the bottom of it this week. Thank you for being patient, everyone! We want this server to run as best as it can, and we will figure it out. Thanks!

Thanks Semler,
That previous post of mine was from around when 4.33 had just been released and since i have noticed improvements on the server. I think its also just making people aware of the changes because i have seen others still joining with 300 or less.

I get the following message: Kevin pending message.
Then nothing.
cheers,

Seems this topic is more up to date: http://www.veterans-gaming.com/vg-plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?39655.100
Seems two guys took it down by using another campaign and/or theatre.

Kevin pending.

I have been replying to the thread at veterans-gaming.com more frequently as it has more input lately. We’ve come a long way with improving and configuring the VG BMS Server, and I feel it’s in a good place now. The “Kevin Pending” messages were due to an unnoticed crash on the server (it appears just fine but on closer inspection, no buttons work in the 3D cockpit). It has since been restarted, and multiple daily health checks will now be mindful of such a crash, and will check for it each time. That one had us chasing our tail for a day, a true face palm!
Thank you to all our supporters and to all those who’ve been reporting and helping us to correct issues and configure this server. Your help is greatly appreciated! The server now has auto-save set up on a 2 hour interval, and server crashes will restart from the latest auto-save file. We will likely restart the server by day 6 of the campaign regardless, and if the server crashes, feel free to post up here, the Falcon BMS 4 facebook page, or on our website here: http://www.veterans-gaming.com/vg-plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?39655.125#post_40087
A reminder to all pilots: Please do not run a campaign on this server; TE (tactical engagements) and Dogfights are okay, but the server cannot handle the AI of 2 campaigns at once. Please fly out of Seosan in the 120th Squadron. Be sure you are not launching the game from the 909th at Kadena! This is for the server aircraft only! Details for joining our server with IVC enabled can be found here: http://www.veterans-gaming.com/vg-plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?39754.last
Thank you!

32 bit/ 64 bit mismatch. ???
This server is running 32-bit???

The link above indicates that they run 32 bit.

Thank you to everyone who flies with us, and special thanks to those who help keep the server running smooth by reporting issues and crashes!
We continue to have problems with pilots running a 2nd Campaign on our server - this is not something our server can handle. You may fly in Tactical Engagements (TE) or Dogfights on our server, but do not run another Campaign along side the one we are hosting. I have done most everything I can to reach out to pilots who violate this rule, but often I find a Password on the 2nd Campaign adding insult to injury.
Please respect our server - if your name is on this list, please understand that we need you to stop. You may join our Online Campaign - Do Not start a Campaign on our server!
If anyone knows these guys, or can get a message to them - have them read this thread:

I know the first four guys, I introduced them to the VG server and feel a little responsible for this. They are new-ish to BMS and I don’t believe that it was malicious, but rest assured that this message is being passed on.
-
I’m sorry, I wasn’t aware that we were starting a new campaign on the server. I’m not even sure how that can be done, to be honest.

Running 32 bit or (I hope) 64 bit?

That’s done by running starting or loading a campaign instead of joining the VG campaign under online. When you click it you’ll get the map up to select your airbase, then you can hit “committ online”.
Mower, it’s in 32 bit to be open for more players.
