Balkans 4.33 Update 3.6
-
It is a very strange situation: in my installation it is all OK now, with the 3.6 update.
Centerline, left and right side of the taxiway are stable. -

Centerline, left and right side of the taxiway are stable.Yep, weird. Just flew a couple sorties out of Aviano and the last one went over that area 3 times with no issues.

Hey Ghostdog,
Check your PM….
Can you send me your texture.bin file from your install?
-
Cougar, correct me if I’m wrong or missing something, but why whole theater 1.5GB+ update just for 3 files 1MB+?
Maybe some error in 3.6ALT update , even tdf file is not updated?
-
The latest version 3.6 of Balkans (full installer) has the explosion issue at TWY A (near A1) of Aviano airbase fixed, confirmed.
Maybe the issue is only at the 3.6 update file, so prefer to get the new 3.6 full installer and make a new installation, after delete first the previous one.

I just checked my server and the 3.6 install is 1.7 GB, the 3.6 Update is 470 MB and the 3.6 alternate is 394 MB….
Nikos mentioned to maybe download the full build again. I know it sucks but that way you have all of it already put in, then after you download the full build if you want the alternate update, they place that on top of the full build.

If it is to confusing and would be better, I will remove the alternate update and everyone will have to use JanHas models. I just know some people were having problems with them when it came to FPS.
-
So it haven’t changed so much for an update, nor it was erroneous, as I figure, why not just issue a patch against update, IMHO.

Because then I feel it gets more confusing. Especially for guys/gals who aren’t very computer literate.

Please, don’t. I rely heavily on your alternate updates, and I believe I’m not the only one. In the update release thread everything is clearly marked and the differences explained.

I have no version of Balkan Theater in my BMS. I ask what is the right installation procedure if I do not want to use JanHas models? I’m a little lost…
-
Go to the main sticky Balkans theatre thread and install the complete version 3.6 at 1st post. 1.73gb download. The JanHas is an available update. Still optional I believe. ??

If you do not want to use the JanHas models,
Install the main 1.7 GB installer, then install the Balkans 3.6 alternate.
If you want to use the JanHas models, just install the full installer.

Hi cougar56th,
It seems like the issue is persisting for those who installed the HD textures. Another player was able to reproduce the issue and he has the 3.6 HD textures. Other players without those textures seem to be fine.
Thanks for your help!

It’s not only about eye-candy, nice textures , ALT version use original falcon flight models , well known and tweaked for years … and,
JanHas version uses his own , new flight models which had few bugs till recently , and are still improving, but I’ll wait 3-4 falcon years. -
Also cougar, those were just some inside jokes. Two weeks in a row people crashed in that spot.
No disrespect to you.
Everyone here knows Balkans theater is the best. -

Everyone here knows Balkans theater is the best.No problem man. I’ll take a look at the hi res textures tonight. I’m not sure why that file would be in there, but if it is, I’ll remove it and re-upload them.

I just installed the Hi-Res Textures and taxied over that spot on the left, center, and right side of the taxiway and everything worked fine with no crashes.
I have re-uploaded the Hi Res Textures…(the link is in the first post of this thread), but nothing in that download should effect the gear collapse at Aviano. This is because they are files in the KoreaObj folder and those files are the skin textures for all the objects. They are just picture files. The only thing they have to do with the objects it that they give them texture. They should not cause the gear to collapse. I would suggest re-installing Balkans 3.6 and then putting the Hi-Res Textures on top if you arent using the alternate update.

Textures can’t do sh*** terrain wise , no holes, ho hills, they’re just “paint” on the surface, model.
Cougar, what could be wrong, you’ve never deleted those 5 calculated elevation/terrain files after terrain.bin/thr/l2 update, which is a must to re-calculate you changes to changed files.
Here’s what I mean: (original post from 2012, search forum, this is for Korea, but the same applies for any theater)Yes, those 5 files should be removed everytime you save l2 or after any changes in terrain editor, another thing I suggest it's to set 'plains' category when you create a new set so you save time if you're editing an airport zone. del "d:\Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\Data\Add-On Balkans\Terrdata\terrain\TERRAIN.BIL" del "d:\Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\Data\Add-On Balkans\Terrdata\terrain\TERRAIN.HDR" del "d:\Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\Data\Add-On Balkans\Terrdata\terrain\TERRAIN.NRM" del "d:\Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\Data\Add-On Balkans\Terrdata\terrain\TERRAIN.SBI" del "d:\Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\Data\Add-On Balkans\Terrdata\terrain\TERRAIN.TID"
