      Hello…

      Having a bit of trouble in that BMS runs just fine when I use the starting profile (‘Joe Pilot’). If I add a new profile in the log, the missions will not proceed past about halfway through the load screen (while it is showing the F-16 and defining the various features).

      I found the addition of the new profile is what triggers the issue, as the missions will load and start again once I go to the ‘user’ subdirectory and delete whatever pilot I added.

      The profile defaults back to ‘Joe Pilot’ and starts loading and running properly.

      Any ideas? I would like to be able to create a pilot and start my own log.

      Best regards,

      Smallberries

        How many characters does your new pilot callsign use? I seem to recall reading somewhere you should limit it to 12, and avoid “special” characters.

            Possibly, but surely worth trying anyway to eliminate it as a possible cause for his issue?
