Old needs help
-
Well yes still had my Falcon 4.0 disk from when I used to fly it years ago. Well now have more time and decided to install again. I downloaded the 4.33 and pointed it to the Falcon.exe file to load. Well every time I double click on the BMS file it just goes directly to the game. Yep how do I set this thing up?? Any help will be appreciated?

Not sure what this means, brother.

If I understand you correctly … the BMS installer asked you for the location of the falcon4.exe file? You only need to point to the exe … not actually double click the old Falcon 4 exe. There should be a “next” button on the BMS installer, hit it after you have pointed BMS installer to the falcon4.exe file.

Did you unpack/unzip the Falcon_BMS_4.33_Setup.zip file so that it installs a Falcon BMS 4.33 Setup folder??
Inside that folder, you launch the Setup(Blue Icon) Application and that’s when it will want to be pointed to the Falcon4.exe for installation of BMS.
Sounds like your launching your original Falcon4 CD??

OK thanks let me remove the files and try over. I did not get a zip file it was all one big file and no Red icon for the installation of BMS.

Yes, it’s one big file that is a .zip file and then you need to unpack it with either WinZip or WinRar. Both are freeware programs, just Google them!
Once it’s unpacked it will create a Falcon BMS 4.33 Setup folder. And I screwed up in my last post, and said 4.32 and a red Setup Application file. I posted the crap for 4.32, lol, funny no one noticed.
The Setup Application file in the 4.33 Setup folder is Blue, haha. Will edit my above post!!

If it wasn’t a .zip file than what type of file was it?
