@Mav-jp
Thanks for your input. The MDM is a BMS internal development tool that you use? Could it be shared?to be asked to Falcas
@Falcas -
Good Day, All. Firstly, Mav, many thanks for the data. We are looking at that as we speak, and also testing the .dat you sent.
This is what we like to see…We get a project as close as we can then release as a WIP .The more people looking at it, the better we’ll make it. That, my friends, is Mafia 101
The first thing we see is that “our” missile is too fast. Super Slammer . -
Good Day, All. Today’s update is about the AIM-120D and ctd’s.
Thanks to the input we’ve gotten and Brothers Scorpion, Sammy Skycraft, and Musurca joining the 120DProject, we’re making headway. Mav’s dat solved the GO STT showing up on the HUD and the lack of a “M” from incoming missiles. It’s guiding well, too We have adjusted the missile’s burntime to 20 seconds(it was about 90 sec. before-yikes) ACMI tests are now showing a realistic Mach 4 top speed.
The seat-of-the-pants testing is looking better, too. At Rmax(55 miles against fighters) the J-20’s I was testing against could sometimes evade it. The missile tracked, it just ran out of energy. That seems realistic. As previously stated, the goal was never to make a Magic Bullet. Another aspect is the DLZ display. Rmax may be close, we’re wondering about Rnez.
At the same time we continue to work on the OFMKTO campaign occasional ctd issue. Last night we flew 2 missions without a ctd, so we feel progress is being made
The plan remains to hold our other Theaters until we are sure this issue is resolved… -

Good Day, All,
Firstly, Mav, as we are now working off your provided misdat file We should be good on that. We’re double checking the values, anyway.
All… Today has been spent testing the sporadic ctd fix. We’ve done multiple missions without ctd’s. We’re going to test some more before release, just to make sure.
This happens just in time for U2 to come out! So far we have not found any U2/OFMKTO compatibility issues -
@Mav-jp
hi mav i realy like the things you said and referenced about Aim 120D fuel,impulse and other stuff…
but I’ve downloaded and copied Aim120.dat file you offered and well… dude this aim 120d sucks! no offense but it’s just like aim 120c with a little extra 5 nmi range?! or so
the speed changed from 3.4 mach in c varient to 3.6 in your d varient! 🫡
i mean if this is realistic then why the heck us airforce and navy just keep buying that? they better use the cheaper aim120c varient…
btw I didn’t run the dzl table and mdm stuff you said before because I don’t know what are these tables and how to run it…
maybe it’s the reason that your aim 120d.dat file has very similar profile to aim 120c varient…
honestly I don’t know.
but thanks for the good info you provided about missiles -

hi drtbkj!

All, very soon we will be releasing OFMKTO 1.7. It has the ctd fix plus other goodies. Plus, here’s a teaser for you…We’re going to do an experiment with Membership Participation. -
@drtbkj
thank you so much
you guys did outstanding job all of you.
can’t wait to play OFM campaigns.️🇺🇲 -
Good Day, All. Were are happy to present OFMKTO 1.7 for your enjoyment.
https://forum.falcon-bms.com/topic/24811/korea-ofmkto-1-7
A day or so ago, in the OFM 1.6 thread I believe, I had given you a little teaser about our experiment in Member Participation. We realize our released AIM-120D has been a bit controversial. We released OFM 1.7 with what we felt was the best compromise. However, we want to try to accomplish the impossible and please everybody. So, we are opening the discussion to include you. If you look in x/4.37/data/Add-On OFMKTO/Sim/misdata . There you will find ALL our current Aim-120D “candidates”. You just need to backup the “Aim-120D” and rename what you would want to test to Aim-120D We invite your input.
Beyond that, our development of the 120D will continue. Plus, we never stop looking at flight model refinement of various jets
The plan now is to take a couple of days off , then get into the other theaters. I believe Nevada will be next… -
I have created the mod which you requested.
It is in my New Thread (Not that one; the other one).
Seems I was a little late for this release…?
You have permission to include it in the next release.

@Jemsnixon Hi. You just described what we like to do best. Although, some us us actually feel some other jets are better. I know, blasphemy . Seriously, though, I am proud to say the Mafia has put a LOT of efforts into several jets, Our most refined are the F-18C and E,EF-18M,F-35B and C , Tornado, Harrier and the Eurofighter.
All, I’m happy to report that OFM-Nevada is out .
https://forum.falcon-bms.com/topic/24873/ofm-nevada-for-bms-4-37-2
We put a lot of work into this one, and thanks to Sammy Skycraft for all his help.
Also in this one we tried something new. We are aware that some people are a bit leery about the AIM-120D we have presented. So, in the Nevada DOCS folder you will find Executables where you can “turn the 120D On or off”. The details are in the Changelog/Readme at the above link.
Next up for us is Korea 2012. -
-
Good Day, All. I’ve been AFK for a few days, but as the poet said “We’re baaack”. We took a little break but are back at it. As previously mentioned, Korea 2012 in next on the agenda.
-
Good Day, All. Not too much to report on today, as we continue to work on other Theater releases. OFM-Balkans, Korea 2012,Taiwan, and VietNam are in the immediate “pipeline”, then Somalia and Libya
-
Good day, All. We’ve been a bit distracted by RL stuff lately, but work continues on the other Theaters previously mentioned. Also, a couple of people have had ctd events, so that is a focus.
I’ve been flying Taiwan a good bit lately. We’re doing some stuff with it , in terms of naval forces.
Also, we have a little side project to add more US Navy and PRC squadron patches . -
Nice afternoon for a little TASMO
-
Good Day, All. The Korea 2012 Pak should be out very soon. Meanwhile, here is some Nevada night AAR for your enjoyment
-
Good Day, All, We have a little present for you… We have added some US Navy and PRC squadron patches to those you can set up via Mission Commander.
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/zfsbwn1v9jtrw/Patches+PakThere is a READme included with installation instructions. It’s been tested in 3 OFM Theaters and the stock KTO. In the latest version of Mission Commander (752) my co -tester got an error when he reached the end of the list. But , he “continued” through it and everything worked. I updated my MC and did not get the error,nor in MC 751.

@drtbkj
Good news once more here, Fra’… assuming that all the Italian ones would be there still, of course (hint, hint).With best regards.
