Strange Overly in 3D when using a Xbox controller
Hello,
i’m using 3 Xbox controlers to provide additionnal hardware inputs to Falcon BMS, in addition to my Warthog&MFD&ICP panels. These Xbox controllers are managed through Keystick software to bind keyboard entries based on button/stick press. For only one of these Xbox controller, and specifically the RH tab button (binded to “ENTER” key / “Warning Rest” callback in BMS), I get some strange text overlay for few seconds each time the RH tab is pressed. See picture below : it seems to give a legend of in-game buttons binding of this controller although they are not mine/ not correct).
.
I checked the whole Falcon BMS documentation package and was not able to find a way to disable this nuisance feature.
Does anyone has a clue how to remove this ?

RE: AIM120 HPRF/MPRF signature in your RWR
The purpose of the original post was to highlight some kind of extra-capability in the RWR of AI-operated aircraft.
Tests revealed that :- the RWR of an aircraft operated by human will not display a <m>until the incoming AIM120 is roughly 8 Nm from the target, that is most probably in MPRF/Pitbull active guidance
- the RWR of an AI-operated aircraft seems to detetct an incoming AIM120 much farther, as far as 19 Nm. This was the distance indicated in the HUD where the AIM120 was supposed to go HPRF/Husky during the cheap shot.
This is not really “fair” => The same RWR should have the same capability wether the aircraft is operated by human or AI.
I don’t know what the bug was and how it was corrected, Mav-JP will probably tell us more, but i would expect :
- either RWR will display a <m>at some point of the HPRF active guidance, providing everybody (human AND AI) with a more sooner alert of the threat (not just only the AI)
- or RWR still behaves as in 4.35U1, indicating only the <m>when AIM120 is in MPRF for both human AND AI, which should in turn increase our AIM120 PK against lower levels of AI which will not be able to take advantage of their super-RWR to engage defensive actions</m></m></m>

Hello again, does any Dev have a start of an answer about these questions ? thx

AIM120 HPRF/MPRF signature in your RWR
These are some observations after “calibrated” tests in Dogfight / Match play of a F16 block52 against a “cooperative Human” F16 Block 52. The purpose was to investigate “signature” of the AIM120 in the enemy’s RWR based on different RCS selection.

Depending of RCS selection of the AIM120, the MPRF radar mode will activate at roughly 12 nm slant range of the target in LARGE and 8nm in Medium/small. However, the target can observe the <m>on its RWR roughly when the missile is at 8 to 7 nm from him. In case the fox3 shoot is made in RCS=LARGE, i would have expected to see a <m>sooner as the MPRF mode is actively tracking since 12 nm slant range.

If you snip the target shortly after launch (snip was made by turning radar off to ensure AMDL was no more effective and missile could only use guidance from HPRF -I hope this is simulated like this ….), you can observe HPRF mode is actively tracking the target at slant range as long as 18 nm. This was evidenced on TACVIEW when seeing the missile turn toward the manoeuvering target at 18 nm while the target initiated the turn only AFTER the AMDL was interrupted. However, the target RWR does display the <m>ONLY when the missile switches to MPRF. No <m>is displayed on the target RWR while my missile is tracking in HPRF phase.
I repeated those tests with a MIG29 AI in pure pursuit (level recruit to ace). Specifically, on test n°2 where missile was let autonomous shortly after launch by switching my radar to off, i was surprised to observe the AI taking defensive actions (dropping flare, and/or interrupting its loft and/or dragging) while the missile was more than 16 nm away and therefore in HPRF mode.
This behavior prompted this question : is the AI equipped with a super-RWR capable of seeing an AIM120 in pure autonomous HPRF guidance ? (or should the F16 RWR “for human” display a <m>when the incoming AIM120 is in autonomous HPRF…:D?, as it used to be in “old” BMS versions )</m></m></m></m></m>
