BMS Vietnam - KTO Released
-
Great stuff Manos, thanks. Starrats and I worked on the mood and sounds, so it is greatly appreciated. Let me know how you are getting on.

I looked into that bug you reported and it seems to work fine on my end in Rolling Thunder I and Linebacker II. Able to frag into my F-4 package, able to join the squadron and fly. In lead or wing positions. Looks fine in 3D and I have encountered no problems at all. So I can’t reproduce the issue: Please PM me with some specifics on the issue please so I can see what I can do
Agreeded above, as it’s a standard policy in testing checks for me also.
So please start seeking for a decent ‘Chief’ model and FM, guys… that actually available one is more or less as reliable as a sober guy at New Year’s Eve :lol:
With best regards,

Just installed ill tell u one thing for sure the music is amazing, the screens are awesome. I didnt had any mission yet i wanna try my Phantom on that (Currently was testing the LP model so its not complete i have to install the normal) and make some skins, i allready have the PN tailcode i will add CR (also will include “richie” with an extra spot in alpha channel and the serial number for the double star on the intake) and RS,maybe also the 57th FIS, maybe i will need here a little help for the squadrons tailcodes in Vietnam.
Sounds great Mano, you are on fire!!!
But please, don’t forget THE legend Robin Olds’ jet:
I’m not showing ignorance for ace pilot Richard “Steve” Ritchie, but man, Robin Olds was something special and unique in terms of pilot ace!
I think that most of us here that love to have a Vietnam U.S. F-4 skin, would love to have the specific one of R. Olds of Bolo operation day.
Just thinking of course, not a way to force you in what you are going to create ;).

My apologies Mano.
But after I read your quoted post, it seemed that the skins that you will do should be the specific posted ones. You mentioned “PN tailcode, CR, include “richie”, RS and maybe also the 57th FIS”. Not the specific FP 680.
That’s why my post.
Thanks for clarification.

I am trying to frag missions for the F-105F in Linebacker Campaign, but it does not show up in list.
The F-105D on the other hand is available in the list in the other Rolling thunder Campaign.
Already tried disabling the comment // in front of F105F from teplanes.lst file, but still not visible in list.
Does anybody know how to fix this?Also have a question about carrier takeoffs, is it possible to takeoff with F4’s ? What is best procedure for using the older catapult method.
Thanks and Cheers

ObiF4 can launch … just point nose at ramp, an gun it full ab. Drive very cautiously to line it up. The deck wants to launch you so everything is speeded up.
F105F is not available from pick list so you can’t frag your own flights. I tried lining up the correct numbers in VALIDAC.ACT, teplanes.lst, and checked unit.irc , and textid file in art. I know it is do able but I failed to get it on the list as well. I’m just now studying how to do this though.
Someone else might be able to activate it properly.Bms vnam uses default db with modded load outs. I think when making campaign with Mc, we saw the option to use f105f , and didn’t realise it wasn’t activated in the in game ui.
-
Not to nit pick but the center image used in the thread opening post isn’t actually from Vietnam - it’s a F-4E of the 52nd TFW at Spangdahlem, Germany and it’s from the 1980s.
-
True that,
Got any replacement suggestions?
I thought background terrain in that pic was not vnam, but didn’t know all that you mentioned,.,
We are making new bms vnam and if you got a pic you want in ui consider I t a contest, best pic will be ui background … -
This is probably the most iconic F-4 attack photo I know of Vietnam
-
Nice! I like it…
New DB is in. ( thanks ccc) And being worked on. Terrain and objectives still much work to do.Campaigns in distant future atm.
-
Nice add, Tazz, impressive. I too like it.
If I had some free time, I would seek some about my dear fav. Thud - but I will think something.
@Ned: you already know this. Just can’t await, and always ready on the cat (proper for this theater, I think :D)
With best regards to all,
-
I did it. Not fine as Tazz’s, but maybe…
I chose definitively the -G. Want to become a SAMSlayer me too :twisted:
Right, Ned?With best regards,
-
Hi Jackal,
It looks great !
Could you explain what you changed and how? I can see this Thud has better texture and also the exhaust model is better than the stock one.
Also did you change F105F to G version in campaigns? And if yes, is the G model selectable to frag manually?Cheers Obi1

This post is deleted! -
Forget my previous post about Jackals message, thought it was about BMS, but it’s another sim and pic.
Cheers
-
Please don’t be worried, dear Obi.
I was already aware of what you too realized soon. I just posted those pics as an example of my wishes, nothing else.
But all the rest is confimed

You guys should put the texture development in the skin or WIP or texture thread; otherwise pilots can’t find it buried in here. Hope all are still going on good with the Vietnam campaign we released.
-
Thanks for this hint, dear Buster.
Maybe I’ll post mine as a ‘wish list’, even if there should be done more than a simple skin, but a true rebuild/update of the -G, IMHO.
About the campaign… I confess, I still should have to give it a look. Ouch!
With best regards,
