Balkans Theater for Falcon BMS 4.35
-
I found an issue with Brnik airbase that was not allowing the player to join the 3D world. The sim would sit in pie 2 and not move any further. I fixed that as an attempt to fix the issue in post #147. As for the freezing…I am going to use this as an attempted fix. I have re-compiled the update. This update is only an update and should be installed over top of the current Balkans build. This update will change the revision to 329. That being said just to make sure there is a foundation to start from, this update is everything that was put into update 2 from the last Balkans release which was revision 283. This update will get you current from revision 283 to revision 329. I would like to have people test this out for me before I build a full installer again and let me know how it works.
If you have not installed the Balkans theater in a while, I would get the full installer and this update. Run the full installer first and then the update. I will work on removing units but this is not a very easy task.
Go to the first post in this thread to download the update.THANK you for your work Cougar! I will apply the update and report back, LOVE this theater and hope to be back flying it! As for number of units, have they been substantially increased since 4.34.4 (which I went back to -Balkans of course- due to 4.35.1 instability)? I can’t see my system, with 64GB of memory and 24GB of video memory, on an i9-9900k, being humbled by the number of units? Korea KTO at the outset of Tiger Spirit on Ace or veteran, is LOADED with units… but WTH do I know!
EDIT: Started a new BoP campaign, ran the same 5:36 SWEEP, was great fun and went perfectly (well, except my Element got themselves SAM’d down low) and picked up an Air Medal to boot! Only weirdness was a 1 second flash as I was taxiing to runway 30 (ATC is calling out 31?) just as I was about to turn right at the end of the taxiway, runway turned black and I think the lines disappeared also). No freeze, and it went back to normal immediately. Ran the 6:53 BAI just now, worked perfectly! No pauses or stutters. The graphic flash on the taxiway is there in this mission also, noticed when I stopped at the threshold and I looked left (TIR) you can see the lack of taxiway also, just a dark patch of ground…

Icer and Cougar,
I’m continuing to test 4.25.2 Balkans, with no issues at all( (I’ve flown off carrier and Palese). I do have a couple of things about B U2 installation.
The first is that when I went to download it the link didn’t work. However, when I copied the link and ran it in a separate tap, it ran fine.
The second is I can’t get my pc to “see” the new build. I’ve tried putting it in 4.35 base, as per the instructions, in Balkans data, and in the existing Balkans folder. Also, although the instruction say to let them overwrite, I didn’t get the “requesting permission” window I usually get in such things.
My build is 23835 -

My build is 23835Hey compadre, not sure what you mean? Are you not seeing the Balkan’s theater listed after the U2 update? My BMS version is 4.35.2 (x64) BUILD 23835, same as yours. I simply ran the “Balkans_Theater_4.35.2_Udate_1.exe” and all was well. One oddity about the initial Balkans install (on my system) is that it appends the “Add-On Balkans\Terrdata\theaterdefinition\Balkans.tdf” line on to the end of the last “Add-On” line in the theater.lst file instead of creating a new line, and AL & BMS do not “see” the Balkans theater until I fix it by placing it on it’s own line, but as you say you have been using Balkans 4.35.2 I don’t believe the update touches that. Barring that I would run the Balkans uninstaller and reinstall the Balkans theater and then the update.

Hi, Icer,
If your build is also 23835, I’m good. I was just under the impression that 4.25.2 Update 1 made a new build.
Anyway, it’s working perfectly, and that includes after modding with the Mafia Stuff.
So, lets me say again, thanks Cougar for what has been my go-to theater for quite a while! -
Ehi there, fra’.
If you may have fixed your installation (so I wish you), I’m already here waiting for you, you lazy lad.
So did you took off, from Palese, near Bari I mean? Strange how I haven’t noticed that.But if not… please give a call, I’ll see what I will be able to help you.
Take care. With best regards.

Try Shift S to turn on the spot light but you cant do that until you turn on the battery.

Trucks are constantly on the runway.I had an accident. Aviano Runway.
There is a big problem here.BALANCE OF POWER CAMPAIGN

With their vehicle insurance company, for sure, I guess.
More seriously: this mays seem to be a constant issue in Balkans, showing itself randomly a little here and there, as seems.
Let’s have some patience, sure its dev. has already took note and will fix it as soon as possible.With best regards.

Hi, Guys,
There is another solution, as reported by sebastianthiago is another thread. Go into BMS.config, find _fAmbientmin 0.01, and change it to .10 -

IIRC I used Mission Commander to move a Patriot Battery off my runway to defend a power plant a few km away, would think once you figure out the unit # you can do it for anything…

Getting a “can’t be downloaded securely” message when I try to download. Anyone else getting this messsge?

I can only assume your AV is giving this message, you need to disable it. The file is perfectly safe.

I’m a pest, Jackal!
When I try to download the two zip files, I received that message with no further information. I tried to download using my phone and received the same message. I was able to download it that way but when I tried to access the file I received “can’t download content at the moment.”
It’s the first time that I’ve run into those situations.
That’s all the info I have. Stumped on this one.
