Great job! I guess I only have about 19 years and 7 months to go on mine

RE: F-16 reversal pirouette?
It looks like the F35 can do its version of a pirouette also (though I don’t agree with the comments at the end of the video … seems like the F18 does a nice pirouette without thrust vectoring).

RE: No 1080p? I need help!
I agree Lorik … this became a problem for me “out of no where”. I wonder if it is due to any recent Windows updates? Good news, it is an easy fix to disable full screen optimization.

RE: AAR refuelling unnecesary
There is a long-range TE (I forget the name … it’s included with the the BMS install). It has a refuel stop … always fun to see a couple other flights in formation, waiting for their turn to refuel.

RE: Looks like VR workarounds are making *some* progress…
Thanks for the upload Wax … I agree it’s nice to see the early efforts by others with VR. Never say never
BTW … is it just me or was the video uploaded by Squeak really VR? The video is way to stable … movement seemed to be very linear (like was using the keyboard to change views)?

RE: Loving Voice Attack
Agree … I’ve used for about a year. I’ve forgotten many key commands because of Voice Attack!

RE: Reinstalling Issue: "The registry entry…"
Old thread … but I just spent hour trying to figure out why I couldn’t reinstall 4.33 (after was corrupt by trying to uninstall Balkan’s theater???). The 4.33 Registry Cleaner worked like a charm. Thank you and Dunc so much!! :bowd:

RE: When do you run Mav and TGP handoff process?
I am personally finding a town about 30nm before target on the map, find some building that is easy to recognize and save it as target steerpoint.
Then when enroute to target simply lock it on in point mode, quickly switch SOI to MAV to avoid BSGT failure message, drop cover, lock it on MAV and press BSGT, switch to second station, drop cover, lock and press BSGT again.It is better to do BSGT enroute than on ramp. It is much easier to find some BSGT target when you are in air, also when you do it enroute you don’t need any extra time spent on boresighting as you do it when flying to the target. It is quick process when you get used to it.
Thanks for your description Mackisoft. Can you explain the part about “quickly switch SOI to Mav mode to avoid BSGT failure message”? I’m doing something wrong because I still get BSGT failure messages all over the place Appreciate your help!

We've come a long way baby!
I ran across a few Falcon AT photos on-line … it’s amazing how far Falcon has come since its original release. Thanks BMS and the entire Falcon community!!

RE: Bullseye
I know this is not practical in real life … but I made a simple bulls-eye chart (radials and concentric circles) on 8.5"x11" laminate sheet. I reference this sheet during flight. I drop a coin on the sheet for my location and another coin for enemy bulls-eye. Lets you almost immediately figure out approx. bearing and range to bad guys. I’m too old to do that kind of complicated math in my head

RE: Can you get AWACS to contact you when they find enemies?
If I am on UHF-17 … I only hear AWACS reports for my package (when I request). Is there a config setting that makes AWACS report threats on a more real time basis?

RE: Is that drifting correct?
I had similar problem with Logitech Extreme 3D joystick. You just need to increase the dead-zone to the rudder axis. I noticed there was a slight rudder input (even after I centered controls on the ground). Fix it totally for me!

RE: Old needs help
If I understand you correctly … the BMS installer asked you for the location of the falcon4.exe file? You only need to point to the exe … not actually double click the old Falcon 4 exe. There should be a “next” button on the BMS installer, hit it after you have pointed BMS installer to the falcon4.exe file.

RE: Flying the Harrier
Create a TE and put a squadron of Harriers on a base (or any other aircraft you want to try out). Then simply frag a flight from that base (set Role to “Training” if you want).
BTW I’ve found that I can’t rotate the exhaust ducts on Harrier to full 90 degree down position for vertical T/O or Landing… ends up falling over backwards? I seem to have best luck with ducts at about 70 degree position??
Hope this helps!

Slow and Heavy
I’m not sure if this is an enhancement … or if I am just really excited with 4.33 … but I love the flight dynamics of the F16 when flying slow with a heavy load. You can literally feel the weight and sluggishness as you pull back on the stick. Makes you have to be more deliberate in the pattern. Thanks BMS gods!:bowd:

Reconnaissance Problem
I’ve noticed after installing BFB theatre … whenever I click on 2-D map to conduct reconnaissance before my mission, the full recon screen w/ target list takes 10+ seconds to generate? Whole BMS app freezes while it is generating the recon results? It happens in any theatre now. Not the end of the world … wondering if anyone else has same problem or fix?
Thanks
