Two Fold Concern [INFORMATION REQUESTED]

Trigger

Hello Community

You’ve all had the answer before I’m sure you could assist again. Firstly, I did a little digging on the forum about bombers (specifically B-52, B-2, B-1 etc) and launching ALCM, JASSAMS and other standoff weapons. I moved the initial point (IP) Waypoint over 100 miles away as suggested by Molni in other post and they still all fly RIGHT UP to the target and fire. To give you a better picture they fly within the range to be engaged by an SA-3 Radar before launching their weapons even though they could have fired over 100 miles away. I posted this same thing regarding AI F-16 wingman deploying JASSAMS much in the same manor but with the help of the community a few different commands (Weapons Free A-G and Attack Targets) and moving the IP far away AI F-16 wingman now fire just over 50 miles away avoiding SA-10 engagement ranges which I will accept even though they could have fired again over 80+ miles away. So my first question is can I GENERALLY make the AI engage A-G targets at or near max ranges? Or how can I fix the bombers to use their stand off weapons at at least the same range as my AI F-16 wingman.

Secondly with them flying so close to the target it brings me awfully close to the target inherently protecting them in a SEAD or ESCORT role. The B-52 will fire almost all 20 of its ALCMS and as they start to impact the target MASSIVE FPS drop followed by immediate CTD. Now I’ve played some pretty extensive PC games with much more demanding graphics request with no issues with this RIG. Maybe there is a setting I’m overlooking or something but I just find it hard to believe that BMS is bringing my RIG to its knees then just stomping it in the dirt when those explosions go off. If my rig sucks it sucks and i guess ill rely on 2D bombing strikes but I just feel like it shouldn’t be an issue. SPECS below

Thank you for any help with these matters.

Were did I say such thing? I cannot recall this kind of recommendation. Honestly, I’m not an expert in this topic.

@molnibalage sorry it was DEE-JAY. How dare I get the two mixed up! @airtex2019 you looking for this?

airtex2019

@Seifer maybe something affected or fixed by recent changes?

Seifer

@airtex2019 yes, cached light was introduced in .7. Will take a look at this. Thanks!

Trigger

@Seifer Does that mean I should roll back the version to fix the CTD? I can’t overfly target areas and CTD each time lol

Seifer

@Trigger open your Falcon BMS.cfg and look for a line like:

set g_sCpuPerfOptimizations "all"

Change it to:

set g_sCpuPerfOptimizations "all-CACHE_LIGHTS"

this is the first report about cache causing a CTD, so I wouldn’t be surprised if your CTD is actually coming from something else (like a corrupt install). Without a DMP, very hard to investigate.

Anyway, try the above and let me know. If it still crashes, please share the crashlog.txt AND the dmp file. It would also help to see your config file.

Thanks.

PS: enabling DMP: https://forum.falcon-bms.com/topic/20866/enabling-dump-files-at-all-times-and-creating-frozen-game-dump-files/16

Trigger

@Seifer I don’t see any line like that at all in the CFG. Should I add it instead perhaps?

Seifer

@Trigger please share your config. I suspect you are using a wrong one.

Trigger

@Seifer I just did a complete fresh install no mods no nothing and this is the contents of the config folder.

Thanks, then simply add this line at the end:

set g_sCpuPerfOptimizations "all-CACHE_LIGHTS"

Copy paste from above, use notepad (wordpad changes the quotes to utf8).

@Seifer When you say at the end do you mean at the end under VR or at the end of the dev tools? Also I think this is the contents of the dump file your looking for?

@Trigger said in Two Fold Concern:

@Seifer When you say at the end do you mean at the end under VR or at the end of the dev tools?

No difference. Anywhere.

Also I think this is the contents of the dump file your looking for?

DMP is a big binary file, generated when the app crashes. You will need to upload it somewhere.

@Trigger said in Two Fold Concern:

FILE_IN_CAB: 2025-04-09_103141_crash.dmp

Looks like you opened the dmp in WinDbg and ran !analyze – thanks, but without sympath configured correctly it’s just too hard to interpret.

In the future, post crash.txt here but please upload the crash.dmp to dropbox or google drive or mega.io

airtex2019

@Trigger said in Two Fold Concern:

@Seifer I don’t see any line like that at all in the CFG. Should I add it instead perhaps?

Add the line, in between g_bMultiHitboxEnable and g_sPriorityFixes

Like this:

set g_bMultiHitboxEnable 1                                      // Dev Setting
set g_sCpuPerfOptimizations "all-CACHE_LIGHTS"
set g_sPriorityFixes "all"                                      // Dev Setting

airtex2019

@Seifer said in Two Fold Concern:

@Trigger please share your config. I suspect you are using a wrong one.

(For some reason g_sCpuPerfOptimizations line is missing from the stock cfg file in 4.37.)

[edit: oops I see you just readded it… beat me to it :]

Trigger

@airtex2019 I’m working on getting the dmp file for you. I added the line to the .cfg in the incorrect place and no change I will try it where you suggested when I’m able and report back.

it doesnt matter, anywhere will work. Are you saying you added the line and crash persisted?

Trigger

@Seifer yes the crash persists
