Mod: Using MSFS as rendering engine for Falcon BMS - and enable VR
-
<p>In BMS We Trust</p>

<blockquote>I’ve just never understood the desire to merge BMS with other products, it makes zero sense. Wasn’t there a poster here a few years ago who obsessed about turning BMS into an all-out war sim with multiple land, sea and air vehicles by merging it with Arma or something?<br /><br />Is it purely a graphics thing? I genuinely don’t get it. </blockquote><p><br />of course it’s GFX. What else do you want it to be ?<br /><br />this is the only thing with UI and sound engine that is behind other sims <br /><br />it’s always about graphics ……<br /><br /></p>

<p>@semlerpdx It doesnt have to, the campaign can be controlled in Falcon. MSFS is only used for rendering.<br /><br />So (if even created) this would be only for those with systems capable of running MFSF <strong><em>and</em></strong> BMS at the same time on the same PC? This would entail the quite heavy RAM usage of MSFS and that of another sim, as well as the CPU usage… definitely doable on a good rig, not as many laptop users here as FPS game forums, that much is for sure, but it is still gating off a large segment of the target audience. At the very least, this should be considered before undertaking any project of this size, if even feasible or possible (which seems doubtful given other posts in this thread).</p>

<p>@SemlerPDX please… <br /><br />Don’t feed the troll… This is just pure fantasy and also a complete disregard for the work we’re doing for 4.37…<br /><br />Stop dreaming, unless we want to push that project internally, there is no way this is going anywhere… </p>

<blockquote>it would be fairly easy to adapt Falcon to render in MSFS.</blockquote><p><br />Do it first and then discuss?</p>

<p>Why are you wasting so much time with words, when a single screenshot would do better? ;)<br /><br />And BTW, I personally have nothing against M$FS and I think they did an amazing work and I honestly don’t think we (well, of course not we) or anyone else can challenge, not ever… but really I don’t think you can do that, I mean… maybe it’ll somehow half-ass work, but not “for real”, if you understand what I’m sayin’…<br /><br /></p>

<p>@I-Hawk We can accept a screenshot from 4.37. :)</p>

<p>@MaxWaldorf <br /></p><h3>What a terrible low-res terrain, totally flat, ground textures are totally bland and clouds are still billboards. not nice and puffy like in DCS. I bet they rotate when looked from down below …</h3><p>Also loadout seems to be fishy …<br /><br /><br /><br /></p><h5><br />*Just joking guys, I know this is r/l photo and 4.37 is gonna look awesome. Thanks for your hard work.<br />But you know, we can never have enough … ;)</h5><p><br /></p>

<p>I wouldn’t mind having that fot surround views, even without the campaign elements, leaving the front view to BMS.<br /><br />Have you considered Flight Gear which is open source?</p>

<p>@Nikolas_A Guys, please stop suggesting as we already have a new terrain in our backlog…</p>
