Starting bms with specific theater
-
(I wasn’t quite sure how to name the topic to give better clue what it’s about, but going to the point…)
Some time ago i saw someone’s film on youtube and he had 2 or 3 shortcuts on his desktop for running bms with different theaters without need to change them in game menu.
I’ve got problems recently with selecting theaters as falcon doesn’t remember my choice and after game restart it starts with theater I played before. It changes sometimes, but i didn’t find pattern yet. It’s like falcon starts with some theater for few days and i have to change it before each playing and then suddenly it manages to save my choice for next session. I didn’t look well into it and hope you can imagine what i mean.
But all that wouldn’t be a problem if you know how to do those shortcuts. I assume it’s about setting some parameters in shortcuts’ properties maybe. I didn’t find any .exes in theater’s folders for running them straight off too.
I play campaigns from various theaters or test stuff on Korea’s tactical engagements so it would be nice to not have to change it everytime in-game. Also I heard you shouldn’t fly without restarting bms after theater change but I have to do it like I do for now. Thanks for any ideas. -

Software/Benchmark Sims/…

Thanks for suggestions. I tried both methods and will use batch files converted to .exes for changing registry value as it takes only 2 clicks to change theater.
