Balkans Theater for Falcon BMS 4.35
-
Hey All,
New guy on deck here. So for whatever reason, when I click on the link above to download the installer, it starts to pop up, then nothing happens. I tried turning off the pop up blocker, but same result. It’s like a new window pops up then closes no matter what I try. Any help is appriciated.
-
For some reason I can’t get this update to install properly - it totally removes Balkans from my Theater list, and then I end up having to go back and reinstall/uninstall/reinstall the previous in order to get Balkans back in to the available Theaters…but if I try and install the 4.35.1 update…all over again. On two different installations on two different machine - Win 7 and Win 10.
-
Right click open new window.
-
Stevie, there is NO update (patch), Balkans 4.35.1 (update) is complete installation. If installer see “add-on balkans” line in theater.lst , it thinks that it is already installed.
(yeah , that might got better… but it works)
Fix… remove add-on balkans by manually deleting it and make sure there are no balkans line(s) in theater.lst … then run balkans setup.
-
Yes - Ive also done that several times (the Installer warns of that and instructs, and once I even found it entered in the list twice) and then successfully installed that previous version, and I still can’t get it to install properly. Or maybe it is installed and the fact that it’s in there twice is the real problem…I think I’ll try again today and see what I find.
I’ve even tried removing it with the Uninstaller and manually checking/doing the above and installing as standalone and I still can’t get it to install properly.

Most likely this has been checked/double checked but is the line “Add-On Balkans\Terrdata\theaterdefinition\Balkans.tdf” in your x:\Falcon BMS 4.35\Data\Terrdata\TheaterDefinition\theater.lst file on it’s own line, like this:
# LIST OF ALL KNOWN THEATERS
Terrdata\theaterdefinition\Korea KTO.tdf
Add-On Korea TvT\Terrdata\theaterdefinition\Korea_TvT.tdf
Add-On Balkans\Terrdata\theaterdefinition\Balkans.tdfI ask because the line it added to mine when I installed it put the (red above) line on the same line as the Korea TvT.tdf line and it was not listed under Theaters in 2D until I fixed it…

Yes, it is…but only after I go to ground zero and then re-install the previous release. When it has been there twice I’ve found it both appended to the end of another entry and on a separate line. One more thing for me to look at/for. Thanks.
-
Ok…got it resolved. Turns out that the list was actually corrupted by an attempt at installing the Somalia Theater. That one was appended incorrectly, and I thought I had gotten rid of it by running the Uninstaller and just doing without Somalia. Once I fixed that Balkans installed normally. Now maybe I’ll also try that one again…
Thank again for the pointer, Icer - I was certainly not seeing the whole picture!
-
One thing I noticed: I have “Fly only F16s” in my config ticked, but I can select all the airbases with other planes in the Balkans theater. Is that normal and intended?
-
Likely, it is an old “switch” , remnants from older Falcons, so probably it doesn’t even work as it is obsolete and/or unneeded. Don’t bother. If you want to fly F16 select one of those squadrons, if you want to fly other plane, why not.
Cheers
-
It has to do with the validac.act file. That config option will only work with KTO. In order to get it to work with the Balkans or other theaters, you have to do it manually in Mission Commander and remove all the non-F-16s from the validac.act file in the campaign folder.

Balkans Theater updated to update 2. Because alot of files were changed, I only created a full installer. Go to the link on the first post of this thread to download the updated version of the Balkans Theater.

Thanks to RadiumAlready did a quick te. It’s great. Thanks to all the Devs did this possible. I noticed the head pilot moves really fast. I did just a quick takeoff. Beautiful really.
Best regards

There is a problem with MFD extrator 0.6.3.0.
MFD Extractor worked on Balkans theater 4.35.1, but it did not work on Balkans 4.35.2. -
Installed Balkans .2, It appended the “Add-on Balkans” line to the end of my Add-on EMF line again, fixed that, started fine but WDP crashes with this error -
Edit: As WDP now seems to crash with ALL my theaters I uninstalled WDP, Balkans, then uninstalled 4.35.1 Reinstalled 4.35.1 and WDP, it worked fine in Korea KTO theater. Installed Balkans.2 theater and WDP threw the same Exception… Installed Kuwait 64 theater and WDP works fine with it (actually has some map oddities, separate thread).
