I installed 3.6.4 and have problems with Battle for Balkans stand alone from falcon Online. All other theaters work fine.
I am receiving that same message as Fubar2Niner:
MicrosoftNET.framework
Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click quit, the application will close immediately.
Field not found: “Flight.Arrive”I have the latest Microsoft NET.Framework installed.
When I uninstalled 3.6.4 and re-install 3.6.3, I now receive this error message and cant get the old version to work.
Error
File not found: c:\Falcon BMS 4.32\data\campaign\Korea\Balkans.idxAm I doing something wrong or is WDP 3.6.4 not compatible with Falcon Online Stand-alone Balkans theater?
Yes, Yes. I have done everything to install this update right. I have done many installs with no problems only on this update.
Thanks for your help. -
I don’t see any problem…
gr Falcas
Maybe I’m saying things the wrong way, but I’ll say it another way that I see a problem.
After I click “Save Datacard” the box shows up that specifies the files that were saved for my flight. The third file is Cowboy 1_Comm.jpg, which I take it to mean it’s supposed to have Comm data.Here is a picture of the files in the Datacard directory.
The fifth picture is has filename Cowboy 1_Comm, which I take it to mean that it’s supposed to be a picture of the DTC Radio/Nav tab data.Instead, its a picture of the Coordination Card when I think it’s supposed to be the DTC Radio/Nav tab data, and that’s my problem.

Hi jc1!
WDP is supposed to print/save the coordination card. What you expect to find from the radio/nav page can actually be found on your datacard, on the Korea charts in your BMS docs folder, and in your a/c computer. There is another reason it is named comms.jpg….

ScubGreetings Scuby,
This is the first time I used WDP. What I expected to find on my datacard was that the ILS for my arrival airport would be there, but instead it had “–-”. So yeah, I agree with you that the data from the radio/nav page should be on the datacard. Well, after reading your post, I reopened WDP and, voila, the ILS was there. I don’t know how that happened??? but I’m glad it did.
Now that you’ve assured me that the comms.jpg should have the coordination card, why wasn’t the file named coord.jpg?
-
cause on the right bottom area there are the comms calls for the mission?
-
Hi jc1,
That card has 2 names actually, which is not always clear. It is called coordination card as well as comm card.
It has nothing to do with DTC list of radio frequencies.Gr Falcas

Hi Falcas,
Thanks for clearing up the name.
It bothered me as to why I didn’t know how I got the right ILS frequency for the arriving airport. I played around with the datacard which originally showed rwy 1 for arriving at Seoul. Rwy 1 doesn’t have ILS so I changed the rwy to 19 and ILS “110.9” replaced “–-”.:D
Now I could use some more help in connection with the WDP DTC Radio/Nav tab. The Nav box and the Airport box don’t seem to be synchronized with the datacard. For example, on my datacard I’m departing Kimpo rwy 32L but I want to change it to 32R. On the datacard I select 32R. The datacard rwy changes to 32R and ILS changed to 110.70. That’s good. But nothing changed in the Nav box of the Radio/Nav tab. Why not?
Going in the other direction from the Nav box to the data card, if my datacard has 32L and I go to the Airport box and select “Use” for rwy 32R, the Nav box in the Radio/Nav tab changes correctly, but the datacard does not change. Why not?

Hi JC1,
What you are expecting WDP to do is not what how it works. And on top of that, not how you want it to work.

WDP will select the DEPARTURE runway depending on the currecent weather. As you don’t want to have double information the runway for the arrival apt, in case this is the same as the departure apt, will be set to a different runway.
If you want to change the runway, you can always do this.@jc1:

The question is not “why not”… the question is “Why would you”? Having the ILS freq in your DTC is not needed at all.
There is no link between the DTC and Datacard conserning the runway and ILS frequencies.
Yes you can, but that is not a good reason to do so.The DTC is what will be in the F-16 when you load the data from the DTC.
The Datacard is a paper with information. Having all the same information 10x doesn’t help you at all.
Most of the time you are not using the ILS at all. And if, you will be inserting it during flight.
For which runway? You can’t know for sure, as the weather can (and will) change over time and the runway can be changed.
Having information for different runways is much better.Gr Falcas

Hi Falcas,
What I get from all you said is that it doesn’t matter what’s in the DTC or what’s on the Datacard, I could be directed to take off from a rwy not specified on either the DTC or Datacard. Same is true for landing. Is that right?

Thanks a lot. Now my takeoffs and landings make sense with respect to your WDP datacard and DTC Radio/Nav tab. I look forward to learning about the other aspects of your WDP.

Hi Falcas,
Having trouble installing WDP 3.6.4. I read all the latest info on this site on install problems. I’ve checked to see if I have the right addition of Net and MS C+++2010, all good. I am running Win 7 64 bit on the computer and 7zip software. WDP seems to stall at welcome screen, It asks for callsign I fill in that and it seem to load, load bar never completes stops about 7/10 complete, then switches to data card as if fully loaded. With WDP open and BMS open using a campaign MSN I save DTUC in bms and it takes a exit from WDP and reopen of WDP to show file MSN that was saved. When the file is selected, and you type in the package No# you get every timePackage XXXX not found in this country select
the correct country and try again.I’ve tried all options and I get the same results. I have cleared my computer of all WDP programs and tried several times to install and the same thing happens, it appears to install, load bar stops at 7/10 way screen switches to DATA Card and Korea map appears but saving a MSN in BMS (DTUC) does not show up until after you close WDP and reopen it. Then selecting that file produces that same message.
The download consists of 4 items New Features 3.6.4, read me, setup, WDP (Windows installer). I’ve tried WDP then setup, not working and I tried Setup then WDP not working and tried each stand alone and nothing seems to work.
Cleared 3.6.4 from my computer and installed 3.6.3 and now it does the same thing as above, hopefully you can help me figure out what is happening I hate to go back to pen and paper.WeakLink

Hi Weaklink,

As you write here that you have installed WDP and it is runing…With WDP open and BMS open using a campaign MSN I save DTUC in bms and it takes a exit from WDP and reopen of WDP to show file MSN that was saved.
I don’t know what you are doing here, as soon as you have saved the file in BMS it is visible when you browse to the file…
When the file is selected, and you type in the package No# you get every time
Package XXXX not found in this country select
the correct country and try again.You clearly did not select a country before you start to search for a package.
But you also don’t need to use the search option.
Just expand the list.I’ve tried all options and I get the same results.
You clearly have not…
Why didn’t you expand the country list and select your flight?I have cleared my computer of all WDP programs and tried several times to install and the same thing happens, it appears to install, load bar stops at 7/10 way screen switches to DATA Card and Korea map appears but saving a MSN in BMS (DTUC) does not show up until after you close WDP and reopen it. Then selecting that file produces that same message.
WDP was installed correctly the first time. Re-installing and re-installing and re-installing will not help at all.
If the Datacard shows and the Korea map appears, it doesn’t matter how far the load bar got.Gr Falcas

Hi Falcas,
I have the same problem with latest WDP, that the search results in “package not found in this country”.
I selected the correct country and also tried resetting. Same problem. The package can be found in the list for this country, but it can be difficult to find it when the list is very long.
Hope you can reproduce and fix the issue. (standard korea theater, issue found on 2 pc’s)Regards,
Obi

WDP crashes if I select a campaign save file without any flights in ATO. Array index out of bounds.

Hi Again Falcas,
OK yes it apparently installed, even though the load bar only reaches 7/10 green, I can agree with that, no problem there. But after I save a MSN to the DTUC and go direct to the WDP it is not there. I must close the WDP completely, then reopen it just to see the saved file. The country is Korea and it appears in the title block of WDP. The saved MSN is in Korea. When asked which country do you want to fly in I select ROK. Then the MSN Package No# page shows up, I then type in the MSN Pkg No# and that’s when the message
Package XXXX not found in this country select
the correct country and try again.pops up. I’ve tried using the expand and as stated above the list of packages is very long I only found the package once in the list that’s why the find Package page is so convenient and when I did select it, that was not the same MSN I had saved. when I went back to the Data Card I selected Different Package and again I got the above message.
The other problem I have is I have to EXIT the WDP program completely (shut it down) then reopen the WDP in order for the saved MSN from the DTUC to show up in the FILE menu. I have used several of you outstanding versions of the WDP. If you recall I wrote to you about the A/R refueling timing problem about a year ago and your answer explained the solution to the problem, point being I am not a stranger to using your programs but this problem just does not go awayWeakLink

Hi Falcas,
I created a mission in Falcon BMS. Then I went to WDP DTC Steerpoints and made one of the steerpoints a precision steerpoint. I saved the DTC. When I started Falcon BMS, I thought that my flight plan would show the revised steerpoint that I changed in WDP DTC Steerpoint, but my Falcon BMS steerpoint was unchanged. Is WDP supposed to change the steerpoints in Falcon BMS?

No, BMS will not show you precision STPTs in the UI.

As long as you have the country selected, this is not happening.
Expanding the country is not the same. You need to select the country.Maybe I can improve this. But to be honnest, I am also a user of WDP and I don’t have this problem.
