Which Balkans?
-
Even why we could have 2 add on balkans in theater.lst …
cheers
Yeah but… caution! Only one it’ll be a THEATER with dedicated UI, with dedicated installer (no copy, paste …oh my God … I porked my Falcon installation :wfish:) and mainly with a working campaign.

… from what I read, the current situation has changed, from the screenshots and various information, the theater Balkans edited by Fighting Falcon will have many new features.
-
I’d go with the one that crashes less often… I’ll leave it at that.

Griffin - Regarding your suggestion that we all use one version across the board, I disagree. For inner-squadron stuff I understand, and FO BFB is the choice by default due to the FO events, support, installer, etc… and being on the same stock install.
But I don’t agree we should push for one Balkans for the community. Our squad spent a lot of MP hours in both Balkan versions. I think if someone is willing to put in the time on a project and share it with the community, and it is totally optional to install, there is no downside. For example, there are several Korea theaters - we have default Korea, we also have Molny’s 80s Korea theater (fun and challenging), FO Red Flag (which has some great improvements in a lot of areas), Rthorflech Custom Korea (which helps guys who don’t know how to use LodEditor), Bad Boy’s latest Total War (personal favorite), etc… each with it’s own flavor/cool features. So it would seem wrong to say X theater is the only one we should all have. You can have two Balkans theaters just like how you can have 4-5 Koreas in the same install. With the exception of BFB updating root directory files, theaters are in separate folders and shouldn’t impact other theaters.

BFB installer is actually being revised as we speak. Since we are updating the main installer for the next BFS 2.24 we will be also “fixing” the BFB installer.
ie. No false positive virus warnings, fixed install issue with AV running, and most of all we are removing the SU-27 pit and any simdata changes.

Cool, looking forward to that. And I didn’t mean it in a negative light. Just didn’t want to mislead by saying all theaters don’t impact each other. Technically I guess ITO can also impact other theaters if someone opts to use the F4 patch settings for fuel in the ITO F-16s. Thanks

The next Battle For Balkans which is redone completely with a new Installer and it will not touch any stock files. Lot of bugs were fixed and next BFB release & Should be rock stable.

Guys it is easy to have to different versions of the Theater in your installation… Backing up your original will be the first step then installing the other is the next and then you go to your backed one change its name to whatever you like also change the theater parent folder in the theaters tdf file (in every line that is mentioned and of course the name you choose) and last just in theater.lst file you use again that name! It is simple i’ve done it allready and works like a charm! I allready have 2 installations of Balkans in my BMS folder with the difference that i changed the name to the second one from Add-On Balkans to Add-On Valkans! simple isn’t?

Battle For Balkans Doesn’t touch any other Balkans install at all. BfB has it’s own line in the theater.lst & when you go to switch the Theater has it’s own different Name in there. The next BfB release will not Change or touch users stock files at all.

Archer - Once the current version of BfB is release, should we uninstall the previous version?

Yes the Installer will not continue until the previous BfB install is uninstalled.

Simple question, should I wait for the next version or d/load one of the available one’s now ?

An excellent theater if I may say so.
