Solved Cannot Select/Choose Flight Slot

@budwyza said in Cannot Select/Choose Flight Slot:
After uninstalling BMS and reinstalling, then downloading and installing this theater, everything seems to work just fine so far. I also re-created my logbook and dtc from scratch after installing. Not sure if that helped the situation any or not. But I did save my previous .lbk file and copied/pasted that over the one that I just created. Hopefully that will work for yall as well.
So it still works. It’s strange that this sometimes requires a complete reinstallation.

Glad to hear that a BMS reinstall fixed the issue. Who knows about the weirdness of bytes? Go get them Scuds!

Hunting scuds now!
I did have a bit of a scare earlier though. While checking intel for my flight, I started adding ground vehicles, naval vessels, and aircraft to get a rough idea of what I’d be flying into. I clicked “fly” and it froze on the loading screen! After a few minutes, I got kicked back out to 2D. Then I realized that I could not click a flight slot again! Then I had a thought. I’ve always had a ton of items selected so I could see a lot on the map. So I backed out of the campaign, went back in and started turning off the vehicles and aircraft on the 2D map. I saved the dtc, then the campaign and exited the campaign. When I went back into the campaign again, voila! I was able to select a flight slot and now I’m heading north to Iraq!
I wanted to make sure that I passed this information along right away! This reminds me of the issue with EMF back in 4.32 with the dtc.
Happy huntin’ everyone!

I’m having the same issue, unable to select a seat in the campaign. Had the same problem in a TE as well, though in other TE’s it is possible to select a seat. Perhaps it is DTC related. Have never had this issue before in any theatre.
-
It’s very weird, sometimes I can select a seat, sometimes not. Tried a couple of times to save the DTC, then the campaign and restart BMS. That seems to work. But as soon as I start another campaign or save game I cannot select a seat again.
It really seems a DTC or perhaps a logbook issue. In all other theaters it works fine. -
As one of the options.
Try to copy the data file for DTC. “ppt.ini”.
From a folder
X\Falcon BMS 4.35\Data\Campaign\ppt.iniIn the overwrite folder.
X\Falcon BMS 4.35\Data\Add-On Mideast128\Campaign\ppt.ini -
@spbgoro
Are you sure it’s the PPT file? I’ve changed that already but no success -

No, it was just a guess.

I downloaded MidEast128, however I am unable to fly any aircraft/get a set in DS or other campaigns. Instant action flies excellent. I uninstalledMideast128 and re-installed but not good. Then I uninstalled / reinstalled entire BMS 4.35 but still no good. Can anyone help me as to what I am missing/doing incorrect. Rest of the theatres function correctly. Thanks
