BMSOFM Universal Updater Project-Updates and Log
-
Good Day, All. Today’s update contains questions for you, seeking the Group’s input. Plus, it’s been awhile since we have discussed the OFM “philosophy”.
In the OFM Theaters we try to be as realistic as possible, but we do like to give you options. We don’t do things that are impossible (like 20 JSOW on a jet for example ). But. we do like share things that *could * be done, and leave it to you to decide if you want to use it.
We understand that some people are very devoted to making BMS 100% “only as it happened” . I know of one long-time BMS member who won’t even try the BMS Hornet since it uses Viper avionics(at least at present) . We respect such views, but again, we want to give options.
For example, conformal fuel tanks. The US Navy decided not to use them on the Block III Rhino(though they were a RL option) , and of course it never pursued it on the Legacy. And, the USAF doesn’t put CFT’s on their Vipers, but others do. However, we have the capability to build that fuel capacity in the OFM Theater modeling. Please note there is a WIP aspect to that as they would not be visually modeled. Maybe in the future a good skin-maker would join the party, but…
So, the specific question is, do you want us to put that in the database? In 2D loadout you would have the option to remove that 3K of fuel in the F-18, and whatever the Viper CFT capacity is.
The general questions are…- Is there anything in particular you would like to see included, in any jet?
- OTOH, is there anything you would NOT like to see?
Your input is always welcome.
Finally, for you to test the concept, here is an option for you to explore “Project AWAS”. AWAS is an acronym buddies gave me, and means Airwolf’s Wild Ass…Stuff.
The dats go in x/4.37/data/your OFM Theater/Sim, and of course you can back up the stockers first

The other go into x/4.37/data/your OFM Theater/Terrdata/Object, and of course you can back up the stockers first

I have had crashes in the X-Plane camp and Vietnam camp.

Hi, And the 2.4.1 hotfix? Also, if the jet in question is the F-35A Nordic, that has been an issue here and there. The F-35C doesn’t seem to have whatever the mysterious bug is.
-
@drtbkj I just loaded the hotfix last night and haven’t tested yet.

Hi. We’ve discussed your issue this morning. Firstly, *if * the F-35A Nor is the issue then it’s already fixed ( we think ) in the 2.4.1 Hotfix.
All,for more info on Bug Reporting, please see https://forum.falcon-bms.com/topic/19270/bms-other-fighters-mafia-bmsofm-journal/929 -

@Jumpstart5179 @farazparsa … Hi I did some follow up testing, both in Nevada with 2.4/2.4.1 UniUp installed and the new Afghanistan. IF your issue was the F-35A NOR, I flew it both places with no ctd’s. So, we think that known issue is solved.
-
@drtbkj Thanks when I get the chance I’ll check I do love the work ya’ll have done.
-
Just tried X-plane campaign on Nordic theater. F-35A Nor. 4 plane package, taxied, took off and flew to the target without issues. Updated to 2.4.1.
-
Can affirm, worked like a charm on all my OFM campaigns
