Balkans 4.33 Update 3.5
-
If you guys dont want to use the Jan Has models because of FPS issues that is completely understandable. There is an alternate update in the first post of this thread that updates everything else for update 3.5 except the models.
-
My models are poly heavy. I have an “old” i7 3770K and I noticed that after I turned hyper threading off (from 8 to 4 cores (2 logical cores per physical)) I got a markedly improvement in LE when handling those LV3 models. I already noticed the slowing in LE when going from a single core cpu to a newer multicore cpu years ago… Falcon/LE were never written to handle multicore cpu’s. You can check if the fps improves when HT is off. If not turn it back on…

Reporting a lot of pink in my 8014 and 8038 .dds. I suspect they’re just an underlayer since I didn’t come to see any pink, except when I had a problem of mixed texture (had to reinstall) and since I still see it with a clean install, but very barely.
For my question earlier, you probably suspect I already handled my problem.
Take care.

Mine CPU is one of the without HT so only 4 physical cores, we need new engine

I just installed the new Balkans, but I am unable to switch theaters. It crashes everytime (I am up to 10 times now). Any ideas? I deleted and reinstalled thinking a file might be corrupted, but it still crashes.
Thanks,

Thanks,
RipperAfter you changed to a new theater, do you just exit without to run a mission first?
Also can you use the default Korea now or you have messed up your BMS installation?

No, I cant change theater to balkans, upon trying to change it crashes.

Nikos.Default Korea works, Just cannot change to Balkans.

Hello, Ripper.
This sounds weird. Too much, if for this, but the same this makes me recalling some past experience in the past.
Would you kindly tell in detail which your installing procedure was? Hopefully acting together could solve that issue.With best regards,

This is good. Maybe you got a corrupted file.
So get the file again from here: http://www.thunderboltsvfw.com/Downloads/433/Theaters/Balkans/Balkans_Theater_4.33.3_v3.5.zip
Delete your current Balkans main folder, and then install the new downloaded one.
Check that at your folder …\Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\Data\Terrdata\theaterdefinition you have the below line added:Add-On Balkans\Terrdata\theaterdefinition\Balkans.tdf
and then try to switch to Balkans. Exit and run BMS again.

Sorry to ask, I have installed the full installer 3.5 it works great thank you, just one question my pc struggles, fps wise on the ground , is it possible to go back to normal f16 pits , like the alternate download file without uninstalling balkans? Thanks Headcase.

Any help appreciated ?

If I am correct, the same (edit: changed “normal” to “same” ) cockpits are installed. The full installer has the JanHas high res skins, the alternate installer the normal skins. Both use the same cockpits I think……

Yeap… When u say normal pits what do u mean?

The cockpits that come with the Balkans have never changed. They are the default cockpits with the EHSI. They are not Jan Has or Peca Chucks cockpits. The thing that changed was the F-16 3D model. It is the one that Jan Has has put out. The FPS goes down when you are on the ground but once you get airborne your FPS should go back up. If I turn off the tail light in the flight model that might help. I’ll test it out this week and if it helps I’ll post a hotfix.

I was mistaken I read it as the alternate install had different pits that did not cause fps loss.
I installed the full install as I did not have the balkans theater 1gb+ I assume this is balkans up to 3.5 and includes the hires file?
Is it possible to still use the alternate download even though I have full install? -

Hmm, yes, you are right, not the best way to describe. I meant the “normal” Balkan Pits. Maybe just should said “same”.

eerrr as you say it guys I should start a thread asking Jan to release publicly his cockpits.
Everyone that reads those posts will think that actually there are 3d pits made from Jan. He will go to Jan’s thread and site looking for those…
To my knowledge there are no 3d pit models for BMS from JanHas.
