Somalia for BMS 4.37
-
I appreciate all the work that goes into a project like this, by all the contributors, Cheers to the team of developers that brought us this new theater and challenge
-
Iām concerned that all this development will be for nothing if/when version 4.38 makes all these theatres incompatible. Have the BMS devs given notice to theatre developers āon the sideā that 4.37 theatres will work in 4.38???

Both Eddropper and I are part of the BMS Team. The BMS Developers very kindly invited us into their team some time ago. This allows us to get our theatres working with each, successive BMS release. As long as we have the time and the BMS folks give us access to the inside material, we will keep our theatres compatible with the latest version of BMS for the foreseeable future.

Hi, SoBad. Iām glad you asked this as itās something Iāve been wanting to share. Keep in mind that I can only speak from my and the OFM perspective. However, we have discussed this, and thatās why weāve been pushing so hard to get these theaters out.
We think that we could, if needed, put the OFM "spin"on Theaters made from the new database. So, OFMKTO, etc. would we think be doable. However, Theaters like Somalia would need to be remade.
You seem to be asking if this work is worth it. For us, that is a yes. First, we feel a loyalty to these āoldā theaters. Secondly, we enjoy doing it( yes, weāre nuts ) Thirdly, we do not know when 4.38 will come out. -

Iām interested.

@SoBad Hi, youāll have to excuse my use of colloquialism, I tend to write that way . The OFM started when 4.35 came out. Some of the Hornet cockpit hotspots stopped working . We fixed that and during that time one of the BMS Devs came on the Forum hoping some āThird Partyā would come along to help with the development of what I call the Other Jets(ie: not the Viper). So, we did.
So, āOFM Spinā is simply the refinement of OJ flight models and cockpits. We are also part of the Theater Development Community. -
