Theatre defaults back to KTO after restart.

[dave9810]

Hi all.

The problem i’m having is when i change theatre and then restart my game as recommended, the theatre doesn’t “save” and reverts back to KTO every time.

I’ve only experienced this after a recent fresh install.

For example my problem is

Start game > Switch theatre > Restart game > Theatre is back to KTO
this happens no matter what theatre i’m switching to.

Thanks.

Doesn’t matter which one, KTO Strong DPRK or aegean. ALways reverts back to KTO after restart

Also if i reinstall, where is my logbook profile located? so i can keep it rather than starting all over again.

A simple fix is to start your sim from here: X:\Falcon BMS 4.32\Bin\x86\Falcon BMS

Then switch and restart from the Same Patch and it will work just fine.

I had the exact same problem, except mine switched to ITO constantly. Involuntary theatre switching.

I switched the order of the sentences in the theatredefinition file and that also seems to be influence. My ITO was listed first before KTO and Strong DPRK, and now it is listed last. Now the order is KTO, Strong DPRK, ITO, BfB MP, BfB SP. The order of theatres in the splash screen is different: don’t know why that is.

I have not been able to reproduce the error since. Maybe this is a fix too?

Sidenote: using the BIN launchers has 2 downsides for me:

1. doesn’t give me the option to start my IVC server and/or client before starting BMS.
2. My GEMFX is linked to the ‘regular’ launcher in the main directory. But that my end-user setting

I have not seen this in 4.33 yet, maybe it is fixed. Any how no idea what caused it.
