Launch BMS from Steam and track played time
-
Hi!
I am new to BMS and I am still setting everything up. I installed BMS and is working great!
But, I have a copy of Falcon 4.0 in Steam and I was thinking that it would be great to have the possibility of launching BMS from Steam and track the played time. Of course, it would show up as Falcon 4.0 but that would be fine for me.
Is it possible to make this work?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,

No you can’t load BMS from steam because, it isn’t available there. The played time you can track it in your logbook section inside BMS. Keep in mind that only non-training Tactical Engagement scenarios or campaign playtime will contribute to your flight hours in logbook and only the time you are in 3d(flying). Also if you discard a mission instead of end it in the end, also will not count as flight hours in your logbook.

Arrrrgggghhhhhh . . . Well that explains a lot. Been screwing myself out of hours a lot! Damn . . . Was wondering why I wasn’t making much progress in the logbook.

Thanks! Not a big problem but it would have been nice to be able to do it.
Now off to set my controls!

In Steam, go to Games > Add a non-Steam game to my Library. Select the BMS executable.

Thanks mate, unfortunately that way the played time won’t be tracked and screenshots can’t be shared in your activity.

Steam does not have that option, but GOG Galaxy 2.0 has it.
