Mission Commander beta release
-
@Falcas my theater.lst file keeps changing every time I run BMS, it moves the TVT to the first in the list even though I am flying KTO, that is even after I move KTO to the top and make the file read only.
-
@zeek That is strange, but it does give you the answer why you see this happening
-
@Falcas said in Mission Commander beta release:
Did you guts check the theater.lst file and checked if KTO is at the top of the list? And not TvT?
Checked
-
@zeek Alternate Launcher reorders the theatres list, are you using it?

Checked too.

@white_fang I got something figured out that tried to work. My theater list file keeps going haywire from the looks of it.
-
@Falcas I have checked both the 4.35 and 4.36 installations …TerrData\TheaterDefinition\theater.lst
Terrdata\theaterdefinition\Korea KTO.tdf is at the top of the file in both 4.35 and 4.36
I do NOT use Alternative Launcher - I use the original Falcon BMS- provided launcher for both 4.35 and 4.36.

Dear @Falcas : I haven’t tested it yet, but have great hopes that it solves my and others TE conversion problems.
One minor issue though: your title for MC on that site still shows “(25 Jan 2022)”. One then must look closely at the revision number to be sure one is downloading the desired new revision. If you could update that to “(1 May 2022)” it would fix some confusion…
-
Just had this issue that I solved by throwing KTO to the top of theatre.lst
The latest Alternative Launcher rebuilds the theatre list on every start with a list of all theatres installed in the \Data folder in your BMS installation.

@riceygringo - How did you keep AL from over writing the order each time?
-
@zeek don’t launch BMS through it once you’re fine with the controls…

Mind blown!!!
-
I might have missed it but is there a way to change the difficulty level of an AI flight after the flight has been fragged in MC?
-
Just swap the order in theatre.lst and then manually launch MC without going through the Alt Launcher.
-
@Gear5 No.
@AviationPlus3D DOES work , Ive just tested it., why are you telling that “it will be fixed in next release” ??
So , for everyone where “it dosent work” - It DOESEN’T work on your own behalf/system. MC is working fine.
Read how to “properly” use it.Also,
I don’t understand how much problem are you all having with mission converting , you’ve written 10 pages that it don’t work…Yesterday I gave it a shot converting theatre from 4.34 to 4.36.
It is “custom balkans” theatre that I’ve converted to 4.36 ORIGINAL balkans database.
So custom -> original … and from 4.34!!! database.It went from the FIRST try, not a single exception , else then a 100 questions which unit/objective to replace with what … as db’s differ so much beyond compare.
So what is the problem then? User unfriendly experience?
MC is a kinda a DEV tool , yes evolved to more user-friendly program , but you need to respect that … If you’re not VERY GOOD/EXCELLENT knowledgeable in BMS mechanics , probably better option is to learn.
I am looking at stuff like this release after release, yes there are bugs, limitations and whatsoever, but dear God, … it is not working for me… NO it does WORK , and you’re doing it wrong.
just my 20kopeyke
btw, i don’t use alternative and whatsoever …
for this you need just clean BMS 4.36 and old theatre … campaign and objects dir maybe theater lst… or reg-entries for that old db … so, MC will get its information of what are you trying to do … nothing more , nothing less

And yet =).

@white_fang , have you had success converting any 4.35U3 KTO TE to 4.36 KTO? If not, please give that a try and let us know how you fared.
Thanks.

@Tomcattwo Why on earth would you want to do that ??? convert existing theatre to the same one only , just new version??
Or I got it wrong , you want to convert a “savegame”, - “day.cam” to the new KTO 4.36 ??
I CAN’T … I don’t have any KTO savegames , else the original savX.cam(s) … but if that would make you happy … that much i can do.
Give me your save game … I’ll make it for you.
But, don’t let this stop you trying in the future.
Cheers

He doesn’t ask you to do it for him, just that you report back about it. This is asked with a methodic mind, trying to make out if some situations (ours) would come out differently that yours (34 - 36).
