Tacview – Understand what happened during your last flight! (alternative ACMI viewer)
-
Did you tried the free view option ?
EDIT: I do not understand you!? … zoom out is quite huge! (?)
Yes but watch as u zoom out labels and planes go off… so u loose the info.

I cannot reproduce the posted issue.

@SkyKnight:
Hi do you guys know if there is going to be a better 3D graphical version with a printable report, I have chosen to wait until they release something more modern and learn how to use it, that’s all.
I have seen the current one in action but hoping for some improvements.
Might have to wait longer, point is anybody know if they are making something better let me know PM if needed.
Thanks
If you have requests and observations send to the creator… I have done it, and it had positive result.
-
I am taking all suggestions into account. For example, I have already planned to work on the strategic view in Tacview 1.3. You will be able to zoom-out up to the whole earth and see NATO symbols without any cluttering issues.
Feel free to send me any additional suggestions I’ll do my best to integrate them in coming releases.
Note: about the boats or other objects which are disappearing, this is a limitation of Falcon 4 which only records objects which are close to the main aircraft.
-
I was not talking about ground and sea units only, aircrafts are disappearing also. Also a suggestion please some team grouping on the timeline on the left. And + - for units grouping. As flightmember 2 fired 4 missiles 4 bombs and 100 bullets. No need to see them all flat out. Also selection or distiction of on target weapons and missed ones. Good for group statistics also.
Thanx for your kindness of having and a free version, hope next ones are all free or bms acmi beat u… lol -

Dee-Jay, any way to get the isreal theater (terrain) to work in tacview?

No idea? Ask Vyrtuoz …
IMO, you can use it with flat terrain if you want.
Should works!(?) Or maybe by using “real terrain” option (real terrain elevation)

Yes, there are Community Add-ons (unsupported) for ITO and the Aegean available from the TacView website.
Copy F4-ITOFBMS-094-110.dat to where Tacview is installed (ie. next to Tacview.dat) and when you open a vhs file with TacView (below the file name to open) select the Israel Battlefield to view the correct terrain.

Bah! ?
I can see them in Falcon ACMI but not in tacview. That simple. Damn I thought I didn’t had to make the vid afterall…
Tomorrow guys I hope I will have the time. Sorry but now is way late for me for a vid after a day at the beach with my daughters and a few beers lol… -
The ITO for BMS is working with Tacview 1.2. Sorry for not releasing the final v1.2 yet, I had no access to Internet or my computer for several weeks. I should be able to release it this month.

Is it too hard to have an option to merge multiple ACMIs into the one? Imagine 20 ship package with for example 6 flights. One human player in each flight is recording the ACMI. No matter the players are entring the 3d world during 10 minutes time period. The merged ACMI covers the whole timeline, most detailed is “intersecting” time.
It would help.

Nice point… but asking them from Tacview we just make his pocket thicker instead of asking them from BMS team or a free lance coder that could create something for totally free. No ofence on Tacview creators maybe I would do the same thing… but in the sence of our RobinHood Community we prefer free stuff…

Awesome program always wanted something like this for studying BFM outside sim.
-
@Vyrtuoz: Nice software, I have a feature request even though I’m not supporting you financially. The ability to remove or hide ground units or hide labels by vehicle type. One benefit of this would be decluttering ground units from an air battle in a PvP sortie or similar. Whether or not its already in the pro version I can’t tell, but I’m sure someone else would also benefit from having this feature.
-
Absolutely, I’m currently redoing the 3D view; one of my goals is to make it more readable even when there are a lot of ground units. I am working on an automatic de-cluttering feature, NATO icons and 3D shapes to replace triangles and cubes
-
Please! Better scrolling for map position. It is very difficult to modify the view when following air battle. Middle mouse level pan for map coordinates, please!
