Santa's wishlist for BMS
-
Due to current work schedule I haven’t been able to fly as much as I would like too. I’m still flying 4.36 since the upgrades in 4.37 would require learning more procedures to be able to survive i.e. the jammer. I love the sim and the dedication of the dev team. Only thoughts I’ve had is the pilot profile making the trip into each upgrade. I’ve also noticed that AWACS will warn other flights in the package of enemy aircraft approaching but never contact my flight directly. I was also wondering if enemy units shouldn’t be updating on the briefing map and staying marked in their last known location.
Just a couple of thoughts I’ve had. I love this sim and this site. I always learn something new whenever I log in.

The first thing that hooked me on this sim was taxing out for takeoff at night with all the lights. Made me think bask to being at the naval air station night ops. This was Flacon Allied Force and to what this has developed into is more then I can thank you for. So not much at night for landscapes, but all the thought that you have to do so you can try one more time to make it through a mission. I feel like I have only scratched the surface.

@hiuuz there is not for only one crew should be bad day to forget something . I understand what you would like with it, but it is not the case in RL. the checklist is only to make sure everything in the right order to prevent something wrong in the start procedure. Only the one case where I can imagine this If the pilots managing the flight by itself at the outside from the home airport maybe on a forward operation base without ground crew . And in the game it should be remember the last mission setup when you finish the mission and maybe you don’t switch off all .

@repvez Yes, I got the point. I’m not crying for this, just thinking about, but I let it go

Hello Forum
In that other sim, you know that one which begins with D, Well, in that it is possible to Boresight the AGM 65……on the ground! Can Santa deliver that please?Also, in BMS now, the F15 has a version of the Link 16. Can we have that in the F16 please.
Thanks,
Merry Christmas.

Random weather would be good. Not sure how you could do it, maybe have say 50 weather maps in a folder and the game picks one at random.
-
F4Wx 1.05 uses real weather and you can make several days of weather and use real time or use a random one.
-
I’ve used that, how do you use a random one?
-
@Hubert3000 Go in to the weather, Map Model in 2D and choose one of those random real weather files.
-
That’s not really what I’m looking for. I want the game to generate random weather somehow. Say load a random map every 6-12 hours automatically. I think it would be cool for the wishlist.
-
@Hubert3000 You have several days of weather and as time goes on it will change the weather every hour based on the real weather you downloaded.
-
Yeah but I usually get really boring maps with nothing happening. And you ahve to constantly download and set weather maps which is not really what I’m looking for. More of a set and forget random weather system for wishlist.

Ability to Sync DTC across flight members
Threat circles
Steer lines

Sorry if the real weather is boring , request forwarded to god
There is a third party soft that already generates random weather maps
-
Not a massive fan of that idea then. Maybe it’ll grow on you lol. I’m not sure we really need to bring god into it at this point do we?
You could have a folder with 50 different weather maps and the game picks one at random at a user specified time like say 6 hours, would be cool. No need to download and set weather maps constantly. All you would really have to do is make the game load one randomly from folder. This is just an idea if no one else likes it then fine.

Moving on CIWS on ships working would be good.

@Mav-jp
What’s the name of the program that can create random weather maps? -

change the “SEED”
plenty of youtube tutorials here :
https://forum.falcon-bms.com/topic/6889/release-weathergen-a-bms-random-weather-generator
now you just need to generate like 10 maps , each of it with the day and time you want the weather to change and place them in the WeatherMapsUpdates folder
-
IMHO it’s perfect target for external app, sort of weather simulator, that will generate weather maps of weather evolving per general meteorological knowledge and region specifics from given starting point (RL or otherwise).
Could be kinda cool for totally offline flying, but still I’m not sire if it’s worth to have inside of BMS, external tool should do the job just fine.Maybe it would be possible to port FlightGear weather system to ext app AFAIK it was quite detailed.

Would it be possible to get a search index, in game, for the Tactical Reference.
