How to disable POV control by mouse wheel and some other issues.

[pandacat]

My mouse wheel(not the mini mouse on HOTAS) is currently controlling POV zoom in and out. Is there any way to disable it? Cuz my mouse wheel is kinda loose and a tiny vibration would turn it and mess up my default POV. Also, is there anyway to return to default zoom? Trackir recentering not doing the job.

Also, my game play is plagued by so many crashes and freezes, it’s really killing the fun of the game. Most of crashes happened during exiting a mission and mission debrief screens. Sometimes could happen in mid flight. Suddenly everything paused except Trackir. Then I need do pause and unpause. Is there anyway to figure out what is causing these crashes?

add this to bottom of falcon bms.cfg file if you want to disable the zooming.

set g_sScrollUpFunction “SimDoNothing”
set g_sScrollDownFunction “SimDoNothing”
set g_sMiddleButtonFunction “SimDoNothing”

add this to bottom of the cfg file if you want everything, and middle mouse zoom button to reset the zoom.

set g_sScrollUpFunction “FOVDecrease”
set g_sScrollDownFunction “FOVIncrease”
set g_sMiddleButtonFunction “FOVDefault”

The crash at end of a mission is a corrupt acmi file, delete everything in C:\Program Files (x86)\Falcon BMS 4.32\User\Acmi
(or move it if you want to keep some).

Random crashes outside of that, not sure.

Random pauses, you may have a pause button mapped somewhere? or the freeze button mapped somewhere? I had same issue accidentally having one button do that.

Thanks for the tips. Just some followup questions:
1. If I want to just disable in cockpit POV zooms but keep the zoom for outside view, can I do that? your method would disable all zooming right?
2. If I accidentally hit pause, then the red word pause would flash at the top of the screen right? But there is nothing.
3. Also, the acmi folder is completely empty, but the game is still crashing. Also, sometimes when I tab out to use WDP, it would crash. It doesn’t happen all the time. Maybe like 30% of times. Is there anyway to check the integrity of the game?
