Falcon BMS Alternative Launcher (Easy Setup, Keep Joystick Assignments)
-
Could you rename current BMS - FULL.key and restore it from backed up one(or from Docs/Key Files & Input)?
And if that had fixed the problem, could you PM me to send broken key file?I did this and that did not fix the problem, I then deleted everything Falcon BMS off the computer, re-downloaded U1 and the launcher completely fresh installs and that didn’t work either.

How about fresh install without my launcher? This app overwrites config files if launched BMS from it once, so try if complete fresh install runs.
-
I just have found Just after the fresh install of BMS it does not have registry information like current selected theater or logbook, so if someone is first to install BMS and want to install my app. He or she has to launch BMS via stock launcher once, then install the app.

Hmm just a question… Could u implement a torrent downloader and installer for BMS?
For future releases u could have an add new Torrent link or file option.
This could also be a generic downloads handler like for theaters which you could also handle separately and general mods and etc.Στάλθηκε από το MI 5 μου χρησιμοποιώντας Tapatalk

It must be same to developing torrent software but only can download BMS. I don’t think I can develop torrent downloader…

Tried a fresh install, even ran the game twice through it’s original Hub.exe and made a logbook/selected the theater. When I transfer over your launcher and hub it just doesn’t want to run, double-clicking the new Hub.exe will give me the blue circle above my cursor then nothing.

Hi, I PMed you a debug version of BMS launcher, could you check it for me?
-
The search function in keymapping is very glitchy. If you press search with nothing written, it will not list anything and there doesn’t seem to be a way to undo it apart from searching for something else. If you click on one of the keymapping categories with the search blank the launcher will crash.
-
Hmm whenever I try to launch the alternative launcher it says “There is no Falcon BMS 4.33 U1 Installed” yet I have installed and played with it for years. Does anyone else have this issue?

I think I have released bugged version I tested. I will revert it back to the previous version but it only searches earliest callback contain search keywords.

Can you check where your registry exists?

Hi folks,
just recently installed the launcher and so far, I am very happy with it.
Would anyone be so kind as to share a BMS_Full key file?
I am trying to setup my controls as in Morphines Target profile, but I get lost at the different callbacks and functions.
Thank you very much in advance

Well, I got most of the stuff set up now.
Only having problems binding like the pinky switch to switching the pos. and nav lights at once.
Also, the launcher keeps crashing on me quite often, which just recently led me to cancel a flight as I had none of the buttons working.
Is there any way to fix this issue?

ChrisIf you want to run Morphine’s profile just follow all steps from here. https://www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?32399-A-Guide-to-Morphine’s-Profile-for-BMS-4-33-and-Beyond
There is a fix for the target issues. Though you’ll have to delete the .key file that the launcher created. Otherwise you’ll have issues.
-
Using both someone else’s profile and this launcher at the same time may cause problems. Profile often contains key file they have created, and my app overwrites them every time launching BMS. It won’t work properly.

Sorry if it wasn’t clear, but running one or the other was what I was advocating.
-
Yeah. So far, I have been trying numerous fixes to make target work again with 1706, but to no avail.
This is the reason why I switched to the Alternate launcher.
So far, everything is bound correctly, I am just somewhat struggling with all the invoke commands.
-
Then again, I uninstalled the old key-file for target as well as the .tmc file.
Still, the launcher keeps “unbinding” my controls in mid-flight, which just annoys me.
-
Unbind while flying?
Perhaps, do that occur when you use pinky shift?
Or if you are using TARGET, isn’t it disconnecting “Thrustmaster Combined”? -
I don’t know if it only occurs when I use the DX shift.
Currently, I am NOT using target. I uninstalled the key-file and the tmc-file, as I would like to only work with the alternate launcher.
It seems like the program is terminated while I am in-flight, for whatever reason.
Could it be possible that the current version of the launcher is somewhat bugged?
IIRC, I read something like that on page 8 and 9 of this thread.
Greetings

Alternative Launcher will be minimized and could not open until you close BMS. That’s OK.
The Launcher will overwrite config files when launching BMS, and BMS loads config files before flying.
After that, there is nothing the launcher can do, like unbind keys while you are flying.If you lost your key bind while flying and somehow any joystick button becomes unassigned to any callback, that might be BMS’s pinky shift glitch. If you press DX button where you assigned “STICK: Pinky Button (DX Shift)” longer than a second, without pushing any other DX buttons, BMS will keep DX layer shifted.
