Nevada BMS 4.35.1

Yes - I’m pretty sure there is only one way (and one turnout) to get to Star Wars Canyon, and there really aren’t many roads in the areas along this route until you get to the eastern side of it, heading south towards Trona - and even then it’s only one single lane highway. There’s an uncontrolled airport in Trona that also makes a nice sim target.
The river of interest for this route is the Kern River. Most of the route through the mountains from Kernville follows the Kern River Valley - at least that’ss the way I fly it because I can violate all the course rules in the Trainer. Once you get through the Jedi (which as I look now makes me want to revise my nav plan…) you are on the valley floor side of the Sierras and the river doesn’t play. The actual course has you overflying Kernville and flying a straight line to point B from Isabella, but it’s way more fun just to follow the river at 300 AGL.
When the terrain is modeled right, this is a VERY cool MTR with a lot of subtle features/challenges if you fly it at < 300 AGL - like flying into rising desert terrain, and one turn point that feels like you’re simply about to fly yourself into the side of a rock face - but it pulls you up just short enough! That’s one of my favorite spots.
I use this route as a basis for building tasking and attack scenarios by including some surprise or task at various waypoints. Very much fun!

Hi. Compadre,
By “normal play” I mean that someone, especially someone with a “normal”(whatever that is ) level of knowledge of BMS inner technical workings, can set up a campaign with his/her jets, get kneeboards, etc., and fly the missions. That’s what I’ve tested, and as stated it all works.
I remember times in the past where theaters wouldn’t even work with MC/WDP. So, and especially for a theater still being developed, you guys did a great job with it, IMHO. While I’m at it, here’s a shout out to Falcas. MC/WDP have come a long way in terms of integration, which no doubt helpsHi, fratello (bro).
Got it all yours above.
And I announce that I got to fix that issue with the ppt.ini, I guess.
Thanks for having made some room in your PM… there’s something new coming soon.Happy Easter and stay always safe!
With best regards.

I must say that “Beautifully done” is an understatement!!! Even as a work-in-progress! Thank you for bring this back to Falcon. :hug: :thumb:
Not sure if anyone has notice this yet, but NAS Fallon is a bit out of position…by about 80 NM to the NW. I wanted to create a TE flying out of Fallon and noticed that it is located near Portola, CA and not east of Reno.

Thank you,

Thank you,

Quick question though. Any thoughts of including the Little A’Le’Inn as an easter egg of sorts?? :mrgreen:

Day of the Jackal TE
First time I win/survive in Jackal TE!

Won’t happen ever again.
I swear it.
Jokes apart: you did very well, bro. You’re skilled, it has been planned to be hard, this one.
To all the other good friends who will accept the chance to fight:
this mission will be made available soon, just like some other ones, as we planned to.
This one, just like all the previous I made, has been conceived to be flown following carefully times, altitudes and ROEs.
On the Blue side, there is one way to accomplish it: it’s in BMS features, and it’s up to you unveil and try to apply it as it’s fit to whilst you’re protecting the HAV (warning: U.S. President/N.C.A. aboard, behave).
On the Red side, well, … what am I expected to tell you to do,Enjoy!
With best compliments (to one) and regards (to all). -

I sent you a Pm on the TE’s. Very Cool group of missions -
Thanks a lot for your kind appreciation, drtbkj.
I’m here to learn day after day, most of all, I still have a lot.
With best regards.

Hi there, Chuckles&The Gang.
Let’s Funk!
No, I’m serious now: it’s out. Check your PM, please.
With nasty regards.

Good evening, dear Chasseur.
As per Chuckles’ own words, @Chuckles:
False Positive due to the script used to make the installer.
Ah, please Defender be good!
With best regards.

The reason there are a lot of bridges and such in the desert is because of how the ground units move on the map. As any ground units that move across the map, they expend supplies and fuel. If there aren’t objectives filled with supplies and fuel at certain distances, the units will stall and cease movement. Thus all the bridges. Also, theatres that have more units than objectives don’t work and will CTD. We ran into that issue in Somalia. In order to fix that, bridges were added. The way BMS is coded, desert theatres can be problematic.
Fascinating! Thanks for this info. BMS is so much more complex than it looks on the surface.
Maybe bridge objects can be 2D and 3D modeled to look like something more appropriate for the theater? For example, camp site, or broken down 4x4 wreck, lean-to cabin, helicopter wreck, etc.
But probably smarter folks than me already considered that?

“Shot”!
I’ve told “Shot” thinking to the glass full of a good liquid.

Good, I like flying Tornados
Thanks for the video, bro. You’re skilled at this too.
With best regards.

Ahem!
@drtbkj: mate, what about making some room in your PM, if you don’t mind of course?
Ah, one more: I added some more planes to that mission.
There are Mirages, Rafales, Eagles and Tornados (of course!) currently.
As you know, “More people, even more fun at the party”Have a nice day!

My pleasure, and me, too.
Would you mind if I put this in the Mafia Files?Group,
If you’re a DEAD guy, like me, you gotta try this TE . I’ve never seen a mission where the Bad Guys are so SAM/AAA Happy. Plus, there’s a lot of high speed NOE fun. I’ve done 6 missions in it, and haven’t gotten past WP 2!. But, I will
The basic mission is a search for naval units off shore, but the flight plan puts you in Sam City. But, the fun will start when you start adding flights against the SAMs -
Dear drtbkj,
would I mind? If you liked to, I would be honored instead, please believe me on this.
By the way, you made me think to a project starting just from this my little work… and I’m a SEAD/DEAD guy too, but, as an Italian, with the Tornado ECR-I (as shown in my avatar ).
So, what do you think?
Ah, one more matter: are you maybe still interested to know how I managed to solve a weird “Eater Egg” TE issue?
If so, I will PM you soon, so I would share this experience also.Thank you so much and with best regards.
